Meet the endearing Caylex! Caylex is an adorable and sensitive guy who is looking for a patient adopter. New things can be overwhelming for him, but as we’ve seen at the shelter with some patience and time he is open to exploration. Caylex would do best in a quieter home with a patient family who is excited to ease him into a new routine at his own pace and start some basic training. Caylex could live with a confident dog friend who can help show him the ropes. Adopters would need to meet on campus with their dog before adoption. Caylex has a history of resource guarding so adopters should be ready to manage things like food and toys especially if introducing him to a home with another dog.
Stop by our Boston Adoption Center to meet Caylex. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 12pm-4pm - no appointment needed to speak to a staff person regarding available pets.

Please note, in an effort to keep the stress levels reduced for the dogs in our care, our dog kennel areas will not be open to walk through. Interested adopters will work with a matchmaker on staff to determine which dog(s) they are interested in and if we can identify a match, potential adopters will be able to meet those dogs outside of the kennel. Cat and small animal areas will remain open to walk through.
Your gift now will help us provide the love, care and support animals like Caylex need while waiting for a loving family. You can also send words of encouragement for Caylex, that we may read out loud to them on our social media channels
