Meet teen puppy Juliette! Juliette is happy, bouncy, and full of life! Juliette loves her friends over at the shelter and has been our latest little puppy project. Thus far in our care, Juliette is working hard at practicing her polite greetings, comfortably navigating the world on leash, and using her little puppy mouth in appropriate ways all by the means of force-free, positively reinforced interactions. We are looking for adopters willing to take on this little lady who will require a bit more support than your average puppy while she continues to learn the ropes of life!
Juliette is a bit worried about dogs but has the potential to live with a tolerant dog friend. Juliette has a history of living with a cat that she was pretty interested in playing with, so any cats involved in her life should be dog-savvy, and comfortable with a high-energy pup! Juliette is looking to join a home with adults only at this time to best set her on the track to continue practicing being her best self in a lower traffic home.
If our smart cookie Juliette sounds like the pup for you, please head to the Methuen MSPCA location Tuesday-Sunday between the hours of 12PM-3PM!

Meet 6 year old Benji! Benji is the full package- he`s big, strong, silly and smart! He is looking for a patient adopter who is excited about training using positive reinforcement to help him learn his best leash walking skills. Although Benji is able to navigate a world close to other dogs, he would prefer not to live with another resident dog and would likely thrive in a lower trafficked environment outside. Benji has the potential to have some calm, tolerant canine walking friends. Benji may be able to live with kids who are comfortable with a big strong dog! Benji does not have a history with cats, so any interested adopters should be committed to taking an introduction with a resident cat extremely slowly!
Sweet Benji came to the shelter with a tear in his CCL that will require surgery. While the shelter is happy to perform this surgery, adopters should understand that after this Benji will require lots of rest and recovery.
If Benji sounds like the dog for you, please visit our Methuen Adoption Center Tuesday-Sunday 12PM-3PM.

Meet our smushy and sweet girl Nelly! Nelly is a 5 year old dog who is energetic, smart, and loves her people! While she requires a little bit of time to get lovey with her new family, once she knows you she is sweet as a peach. Nelly is looking for adopters who are willing to give her adult-self adequate time and space to fully transition into her new home, as she`s been through a lot of change in a pretty short period of time. This means respecting her boundaries, and taking it slow while she gets to know everyone in the home.
Bonus: Nelly appears to be house-trained already, but adopters should understand that in a new setting it might take her some time to always make the mark! Nelly is currently looking to go to a home where she is the only pet, but has the potential to live in a neighborhood that has dogs in it- so long as her people are diligent in how they go about doing introductions! Nelly has no known experience living with kids, but could likely do well with teens who are able to read dog body language and give her space while she settles in.
If Nelly sounds like a fit for your home, feel free to stop by our Cape Adoption Center 1PM-4PM Tuesday-Sunday!

Get ready to fall in love. Everyone does. Capone is just as wonderfully sweet as he looks. This big guy loves to say hello to everyone and is a gentle giant with kids. He could possibly live with a well-matched dog or a dog savvy cat. And he says yes please to living with kids. Like a few of us, Capone is overweight and is currently on a diet. He also can have some trouble standing or walking for long periods of time without a break. For these reasons, his adopters will need to have a good relationship with a veterinarian.
This special dog is looking for a family of his own to share his whole heart with. Are you that family? Come meet Capone at the MSPCA Methuen

Meet Champion! This Champion may not have a Super Bowl ring, but his foster home did lovingly referred to him as the “dumb football player type”. With the squishiest blockhead in the biz and three legs (don’t worry, it doesn’t slow him down!), this hunk is sure to turn heads everywhere he goes. Like many dogs, Champion has been stressed in the shelter and will need some well-earned R&R time before going on any big adventures. He may be able to live with other dogs (who are ok with a football player!). In his foster home, he was described as a little too much for cats. Is he the Champion of your heart? Come to our Boston location to find out today!

Meet Puffin! He is 8 months old and is ready for his new home! He can be worried in new situations and is looking for someone to give him time and space to feel cozy/comfortable but once he’s opened up, he gets excited easily and loves to play! While he and his adopters get to know each other, his bubble should be kept small and predictable. Additionally, his adopters should be prepared for all things puppy: housetraining, puppy-proofing, and working on fine-tuning his manners using a gentle approach. Any kids in the home should be old enough to give him space while he’s settling in, and to participate in training once he’s more comfortable in the home.
