Meet Penny! That means brace yourself for this spring-loaded jumping bean of energy. We have had the great pleasure of getting to know Penny pretty well in the adoption center, that means we know her to be a complicated lady. Sometimes she is bouncy and wild and ready for action, sometimes she is quite fearful and quiet, trying to make herself disappear. Life with Penny will mean helping her navigate the world when she is being silly and when she is afraid. She`s looking for an adopter who is excited about helping her become the very best version of herself – but we already think she is pretty great. Penny might be able to live with a confident and tolerant helper dog, but says no thank you to cats and kids. If you`d like to learn more about Penny, submit an inquiry today!

Meet Princess! Her tail wags at approximately 20 wags per second, and in case that wasn’t clear enough that she’s having a good time, she wiggles her whole bum for good measure. Princess is only about 2 years old and is quite athletic, so she’d love a new friend to take her on all sorts of New England adventures. Princess has learned a lot of things already in her short life, but settling comfortably when home alone is still a work in progress. She’d do best with someone who is home often and can continue to help her with this life skill. Princess would prefer to be the only dog at home for now, but could do well with some polite, role-model dog friends. She has no history living with cats but got along well with kids in her last home. If you’d like to learn more about Princess, submit an inquiry today!

Bax is 34 pounds of happy!! This little guy will make you laugh when he shows off his extreme zoomie skills. He loves his squeaky toys and snuggles, once he`s comfortable. This good boy is looking for adopters that will be excited about positive rewards training and enrichment to help him learn the best manners. Bax is pretty conflicted about dogs and while he may be able to have a well matched friend for play dates, he should be the only dog in the home. He says no thank you to dog parks/daycare and any feline friends. Since his happy little personality can sometimes bubble over into some excitement jumping, older kids that can help with his training, are the appropriate fit for him. If you need a little buddy to make you laugh and snuggle with and Bax sounds just right, please start by filling out the adoption inquiry form in the link below.

This little lady is a petite bundle of action! London is a wiggly, snuggly 10 month old that is already a little athlete. She is looking to be the only pet in an adult home with active adopters who will be excited to help her achieve best girl status. London enjoys both physical activity as well as mental stimulation like food puzzles. Once she’s had her fill, she’s ready for some snuggle time. She is still young, so puppy proofing the home sets her up to be successful and make good choices. Because she does not like to share her yummy food or treats, London will need an adult home, where this can be more easily managed. She does like dogs, but is not a candidate for daycare or dog parks, as she is easily overwhelmed. Instead, she can have carefully selected, appropriately introduced, dog buddies to play with. This little dynamo will bring lots of fun, love and smiles to her adopters for years to come. If you think this sweet cutie might be for you, please start by filling out the adoption inquiry form in the link below.

Meet Juniper! This wild and crazy gal is ready for her next adventure. Though she’s not technically a puppy, you wouldn’t know it when you meet her. She is bouncy and waggy and so happy to greet people – sometimes a little too excited! She’s still working on her manners, but she’s the most eager student you’ll ever meet. Juni would love to have some well-matched dog friends to help her learn to navigate the world, but they’ll need to be very patient friends who are comfortable with her rough and rowdy play style. Juni is looking for a house without cats or young kids for now, and would do best in a quieter neighborhood where she can better practice her manners without too many distractions.

Meet Minnie! This 5 year old, “pocket pittie” is a little ball of energy and she can’t wait to be your friend! You wouldn’t know by looking at her that she didn’t have the easiest start in life – Minnie is as resilient as they come. She has never met a stranger that she didn’t fall in love with, and her tail often wags so hard that it looks like it might fall off. Minnie loves to play with other dogs, though her signature tasmanian devil spin-move isn’t always well-received, so she’ll need a family who can help select dog friends who are well matched for her silliness. She has not had much experience living inside, so she’ll need a lot of support to learn how to be a good roommate. Minnie is looking for a home as the only pet, and she may be successful with older kids who can help with her training. Submit an inquiry today to learn more about Minnie!

Heidi is a 7 month old beauty that`s full of puppy energy. She is on the shy side, but once comfortable, she`s playful and sweet. Heidi will need adopters that can give her space when she needs it, as she settles in. Because there is no history of Heidi`s past, adopters should plan to be flexible with her training needs as she matures. At this time, she should be in a quieter adult home, where she can be the main focus, to help her reach her full potential. Heidi can possibly join a home with a calm, well mannered resident dog that can be a good role model for her. With appropriate, well managed introductions, she may be able to live with a cat.

This lively guy is Rip, a friendly and outgoing dog that loves to be around people and play all day. Rip walks great on leash and will love going on adventures with you! He’s a goof out in the yard and can get a little too excited sometimes, so smaller children may not be the best fit since he might knock them over! He enjoys other dogs but can be a rough and tumble player, so any potential canine siblings should meet him at the shelter to make sure they’re okay with his energy levels.

What great big ears you have, Dobby! All the better to hear you with! Did I hear someone say forever home?

Meet Dobby! Dobby is a loyal, funny & quirky, with a capital Q, kind of lady. Dobby’s motto is girl’s rule, boy’s drool! She can find it hard to fit in with her 2 legged peers. It’s not always love at 1st sight but once a connection is made, at her own pace of course, she will be your best friend.

Dogs are always welcome with Dobby but be prepared, this lean & lanky lady likes to rumble and tumble. Once adjusted to her new digs a dog friend may benefit her as long as they can tolerate her over exuberant play style.

Plain & simple Dobby’s etiquettes & manners are a bit rusty so patience is a must along with a good refresher course in housetraining. She know how to speak her mind so if she is stressed or anxious she will let you know by serenading you with her power house voice. She would do best in a quieter neighborhood as apartment living would be a bit overwhelming for this upcoming star. Who knows she may be the next American Idol.

Cats are an unknown but Dobby may enjoy sharing her space with then, after a slow introduction.

Dobby may also enjoy the companionship of older dog-savvy children who are able to read her body language, which she is really good at letting you know when she is uncomfortable.

If you think this lovely lady would light up your life submit an inquiry today to learn more about Dobby!!

This handsome 5 year old will steal your heart with that sweet face and soulful eyes. Spike loves to go for strolls, but also enjoys relaxing in a shady spot, especially if some belly rubs are included. This very good boy may become anxious when left alone, so adopters should be prepared to minimize alone time while he settles in. Although Spike can potentially have a canine buddy for walks in the future, he will need to be the only dog in the home. A dog savvy cat is a possibility. Older kids that are comfortable with a larger dog, will be considered. If you`ve been looking for a sweet, big boy that loves to give kisses to all his friends, Spike might just be for you.

Remi is looking for an adopter who appreciates his reserved nature – he saves his best silly moves and fetching prowess for only his closest friends. While people can be a little scary, Remi thinks dog friends are great fun, but doesn’t like to share his food or favorite things so proper management will be important. Remi could do well in a home with a dog-savvy cat, but he says no thanks to kids. Submit an inquiry today to learn more about Remi!

This young guy sure got it all! Shield is handsome, clever and has a delightfully silly side. He will excel at some low impact training activities, such as scent work. Initially, Shield was quite worried at the shelter, finding all the new faces and noises a bit overwhelming. His adopters should expect that transitioning to and settling in at his new home, will also take time and patience. While Shield gets comfy with his new family, home life should be very calm and predictable. Give him plenty of time to settle in at his on pace and he will be happy to show you his silly, loud, shepherd personality. He may be able to join a home with a well matched resident dog, but should not live with a cat. Older kids that will be consistently respectful of Shield`s needs as he becomes familiar and comfortable with his family, will be considered.

This sweet face belongs to Caleb. Hes a friendly boy who loves to greet everyone he sees with a wiggling body and tail wags! He can typically be found waiting in his kennel patiently for his next friend to take him out, and he does well on leash. Caleb has high energy levels, so a family with teens would be his best fit. Hes still working on managing his excitement levels while playing with other dogs, and would need to meet any potential dog siblings. No felines for this guy, though, please.

This little guy came in with a broken leg, but now he`s all healed up and ready to find his happy ever after. Max is just 7 months and is sweet and silly with people he`s comfortable with. A quiet, low traffic, adult home will be the perfect fit for this cutie. Max may never be a social butterfly and will likely prefer to stay close to home, which means his adopters should be committed to making sure he feels safe and comfortable. He`s a very talkative little chap, both when nervous and while playing, so apartments/condos would not be a good fit. Max would enjoy the company of a well matched adult dog that will be a good role model. He may also be able to live with a dog savvy cat, as long as there are well managed introductions and an area to keep them separate, initially.
