Meet Jelly, a sweet and sensitive pup looking for a calm, understanding home. Jelly loves her walks, especially in quiet areas where she can sniff around and take her time. Shes a bit overwhelmed by changes in her environment, so shell need a patient adopter who can help her settle in slowly and keep her world small during the first few weeks. Jelly can be a little nervous meeting new people and dogs, so shell do best with an adopter whos open to learning about constructive affection to help her build confidence.

Snow is a precious little girl who is looking for a special family of her own. She came to us with limited information and limited life experience, so new people and places can be overwhelming for her. Snow has been settling in well and making lots of friends at the shelter, including dog friends, so we think with a little extra TLC she’ll make a great companion. She loves to play with her dog friends and do zoomies around the yard! Snow was nervous about being touched at first, but she is getting more comfortable everyday. She is looking for a family who can teach her about the world in a safe and fun way. We think Snow would do well in a home with another social, confident dog who can help build her confidence and show her the ropes!

If you think this dog could be a good match for your home and would like to learn more, stop by our Boston Adoption Center. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 12pm-3pm – no appointment needed to speak to a staff person regarding available dogs.

Preparing your home for your new dog or puppy ahead of time can help ease the transition for your new pet and set you both up for success should there be a dog that’s a good match!

It`s a bird, it`s a plane… No, it`s Bella!! Faster than the speed of light, Bella is zooming right into your heart! Bella`s got a whole lot of love (and energy!!) to give to her new family! Bella is young and ready for fun, fun, fun! Bella`s list of priorities does not necessarily have `learning manners,` at the top of her list (more like play, play, and play some more!) … but she definitely needs some extra help learning how to be an upstanding canine citizen! Luckily for you, Bella has brains as well as beauty. She will be lots of fun to train, since she`s so athletic and food motivated. This long-legged lady is looking to be the star of the show… so she is not looking for a home with other dogs or cats! She could potentially live with older kids that will be okay with her rough and tumble lifestyle!

Byson is a sweet fella who is excited to find a home of his own! He enjoys going for walks and taking long naps on the couch. Byson can be super snuggly once he gets to know you and seems to enjoy meeting new people. He lived with kids in his previous home and seemed to enjoy spending time with them.

Hudson is a cute little old man. Do not let his age fool you! This guy
enjoys long walks and there is always plenty of pep to his step. He loves
to train and is very good at it. No matter what they say about old dogs,
this guy loves practicing new tricks! Hudson has a great history of living
with a 5 and 7 year old. If children in his new home were able to help
with his training plan, that would make it perfect. Hudson should be the
only dog in the house. However, he could have some dog walking buddies or
playmates. And if you started with complete separation, living with a cat
might work.

Hudson has been having a hard time settling here at the shelter. He is
hoping for a patient adopter who can help him learn how to relax on his
own. He is also house-trained, yet may need a quick refresher after his
stressful time at the shelter.

This is a really good dog who could use a little help to become a really
great dog. He is looking for a family to hang out with. Does he sound
like the dog for you? Come meet Hudson at the MSPCA in Methuen on Tuesdays
through Sundays from 12PM to 4:30PM.

If you love a slow simmer and know that good things come as a result of time and care, you’ll fall in love with Chef. This spry grandpa might take a little time to settle into your home, but once he does, you’ll experience his beautiful, cuddly, patient, and sweet soul.

Chef spends a lot of his time napping, preferably in close proximity to or on his humans. He loves a lap or a shoulder on which to place his head. He can cuddle for hours when he’s in a certain mood, and he’s been known to climb into laps like a cat: however, he appreciates his space sometimes, too. More than anything, he loves sniffing. Be prepared for some slow walks while he sniffs every lawn, hydrant, and bush he can get his nose on. He appreciates patience while he explores scents, especially because he’s unable to hear.

He gets energetic a couple of times a day, but if given a choice of his favorite projects – a stuffed Kong, a chew toy, a bully stick, a broth ice cube – he’s able to settle. He’ll ask for pets when he’d like them, but sometimes he just likes to stand near his humans while he looks around and sniffs. Because of his deafness, he appreciates a careful approach.

Two of Chef’s best traits are his gentleness and patience. Sure, he’s a klutz, and a master of physical comedy, but he is gentle and patient with his humans.

Life with Chef means a life with cuddles, snuggles, laughter, treats, leisurely walks, and lots of naps. If you’re ready to greet every day with happy tail wags and soulful brown eyes, then you should say, Yes, Chef!

Meet Coral, a gentle soul with a heart full of potential. This shy, sensitive girl has lived a sheltered life and is just beginning to explore the world around her. New experiences can be overwhelming for Coral, and shes still learning how to feel safe in unfamiliar surroundings. Shes not ready for cuddles or physical affection from humans just yet, and thats okaywhat she truly needs is time, space, and a patient adopter who understands that trust takes time and cant be rushed.

What Coral does love, though, is the company of other dogs. She truly comes to life around canine companions, especially those who are calm, confident, and kind. A dog-savvy home with a steady, well-adjusted dog could help show Coral the ropes and give her the reassurance she craves. Coral is looking for a peaceful, predictable environment where she can take her time getting comfortable and be celebrated for the quiet victories along the way.

If you`re the type of person who finds joy in gentle progress and believes in letting a dog set her own pace, Coral might just be your perfect match.

Maci is a lovely lady with a big personality! She is a growing girl who is super smart and loves to learn new things! Maci enjoys playing and running around, she is often happy to just toss her toys around and keep herself entertained. She loves the outdoors and could make a good hiking buddy one day. Maci had limited experiences before coming to the shelter so new people and places can be a bit overwhelming at first, so she is looking for a family that can help her settle in at her own pace.

Huey is a playful and lovable hound mix who’s working on growing his confidence and learning that the great indoors isn’t so scary after all! He’s sweet, sensitive, and happiest when he’s got a confident dog friend by his side.

Since he grew up without much exposure to home life, he’s still figuring out things like leashes, doorways, and that the vacuum isn’t a monster. With a little patience and a lot of treats (preferably peanut butter biscuits!), Huey will blossom into the loyal companion he’s meant to be. If you’ve got a quiet home, a friendly dog, and a heart big enough for a gentle soul like Huey, he’s ready to learn what love is all about!

Meet Pam! This fun, happy-go-lucky girl is full of energy and ready to bring lots of joy into your life. For the first several few weeks, she`ll need time to decompress and settle in. It`s important to keep her world a little smaller as she gets comfortable with her new family.

A patient adopter who is excited about positive reinforcement training will be the perfect fit to help Pam thrive and truly shine. We`re still getting to know her play-style, so slow introductions to social dogs are a must. If you have another dog at home, we recommend a meet-and-greet here at the shelter.
