Mouse, ~2 years Male Wire- haired Terrier / Dachshund  Mix   Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Mouse is about 2 yrs old neutered and weighs 12-15 lbs and was rescued from a TN animal shelter. What a great little dog, he has so much personality, he just brightens your day to watch him strutting around. He is 100% house trained and mastered using a dog door quickly. He gets along with all the fosters, he rides great in the car, walks on a leash and loves the crate and if the door is open will go in to snuggle down for a nap during the day. He is not a fan of cats though. He has coarse fur and little tufts of fur on his legs and muzzle, so we can assume he has terrier in him. He was mistreated by a child so now he is not a fan of children so his adopter should have older children if any at all. His foster mom says: he is a good little dog, completely housebroken 100%, eats good, sleeps through the night . Does give a little growl to new people/dogs but then is very friendly, loves everyone and every dog I have had him with (I did not have him with any kids). He does bark sometimes; inside he is pretty quiet except when a loud truck/plow goes by outside. He walks well on a leash. He is very snuggly, if I sit he is on my lap or beside me with his head on me. Come meet him at Petco on 2/7 from 12-2 PM in the Natick store.

Reese, 10 months Male Pomeranian  Mix   Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Reese is a 10 months old Pomeranianand weights about 4 lb. Reese has been on the Save A Dog coming soon list for a month now and is finally out of the hospital and in foster. His leg had been broken for 2 weeks before the Save A Dog partner in TN was contacted by the owner. Although tripods do very well, we decided to save this beautiful boy's leg. He is doing very well. Reese is such a darling little boy, he is so sweet. He is very quiet crated or out of the crate.. He has been through so much but his resilience shows through. He loves to play with toys, he will potty on pee pads or outside if given the chance he prefers outside. He wouldn't think of being mean to a cat or a dog. We are watching that now that he is out of the hospital he doesn't over use his leg as it is still mending. He wants to run and play with all the other dogs, which of course worries foster mommy. He deserves someone that will love and protect him so he never has to go through any pain and suffering again. Reese will be taking applications and decide on the very lucky adopter to be his new mom and dad. Of course, the Save A Dog staff will help him with that decision..

Ritchie, 11 weeks Male Wire-haired Terrier / Beagle / Australian Shepherd  Mix   Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Ritchie is a playful pup who needs a forever home. His mom was beautiful and of a good temperament. Ritchie is a good boy already 90% house trained. He has the darker coloring with the most beautiful markings. He loves to play and is not afraid of big dogs. He's a pretty out-going pup. His mom, Celia, is a wire-haired terrier / Australian Shepherd mix with a naturally bobbed tail but he has the longer tail and possibly either Pointer, or Cattle, or Beagle in him. Ritchie looks like a wire-haired pointer with a fuzzy face. He was born on November 19th. He is paper trained but prefers to do his business outside. A fenced in yard or area is best as he is not yet leash trained. A harness with leash is a good way to leash train a puppy for walking without the fenced in yard. He is available now.

Rocket, 10 weeks Male Australian Shepherd/Wire-haired Terrier  Mix   Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Rocket is one of Celia's pups and he loves the water! He thinks the water bowl is his personal pool. He digs at the water until there is not one drop left. He is soft and a little shy, so a gentle, dog-experienced home would be best for him. He has the terrier-coat, but is the calmest of all the puppies. Celia's Puppies were born on November 19th. He is paper trained but prefers to do his business outside. A harness with leash is a good way to leash train a puppy. They run and wrestle for hours and then plop down for a long nap, wake up and go again.They are puppies though, with sharp claws and sharp teeth, so small children are not advised. They love to eat shoelaces and tug and climb on pant legs. They are so young they will need a stay at home situation in order to be properly socialized -- the rule of thumb is not more than one hour alone for each month of the puppy's age. Please note we do not spay and neuter young puppies as it causes health problems later on. Spaying and neutering upon maturity is a requirement, however. We are showing him from 1-3 on Sat and 12-3 on Sunday. Last Modified: 2/11/2014 12:03:52 PM EST Printable Description

Rose, 1 year Female Spaniel / Sheltie / Beagle  Mix Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Rose is a sweet and personable dog who gets along well with dogs, cats and people. Rose was listed as a Long Haired Beagle, but there is no such thing so we're estimating that she has some spaniel or Collie mixed in. She's spayed and weighs around 20 lbs. She's approximately 1 years old. Her foster mom in WV says: "I had Rose loose in the house, she was very well behaved, she got along with my 7 dogs. She and another small dog played together every day. She sat on our laps often and never made a sound. She waited on her food and knew where she would be fed. She didn’t want to be closed in away from the other dogs -- she wanted to be part of the pack. She went outside with them and blended in fine. She would sleep on a dog bed in the bedroom and didn’t try to get on the bed, but then there wasn’t much room with 7 other dogs. She was eating fine, preferring soft food, so she gets a mix. She was never too sure what to do with a dog bone and usually had it stolen from her, she never cared. She stayed in the house while I was gone with my 3 beagles and there were no problems. She ignored the three cats." She is available now. Pictures were taken just after her bath. Her fur is much softer than it appears.

Scooter was given up by his owner and is looking forward to finding his new family. He loves attention and his big eyes don't miss a thing. He is very quiet. Scooter really enjoys being outdoors so it would be nice for him to have a yard to explore. Before he came into foster he was only on a lead outside so could really never take his time sniffing and exploring. He has gotten along with all the dogs and cats in his foster home. He is alittle timid so likes the company of people or other dogs to check of the yard. He is learning to like the crate so still gives a little wimper at bed time. Available 2/15.

Scrappy, 7 years old Male Cocker Spaniel   Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Scrappy is a 7 year old neutered male Cocker Spaniel who loves to play with his toys and loves to fetch a ball. He came from a household of children, but one child has allergies so he was reluctantly relinquished. Scrappy is great with the kids, but can take a little while to warm up to new people. We're looking for someone who knows the breed and who will provide him with a holistic protocol and lots of love. He is in good shape for a Cocker his age -- he wasn't overly vaccinated but is up to date on Rabies, so is in pretty good health. He has the typical ear infections, but is responding quickly to the homeopathic remedies. He has the wiggly Cocker energy and the sunny Cocker disposition. He loves to play with his toys and will entertain himself for hours with his squeakies and tennis balls. He was overweight upon arrival, but is on a grain free diet and is slimming down. He needs to get daily walks. He's great with other dogs and he lived with a pit bull in his former household. Our best placements are with opposite sex pairs so we feel he would adjust more quickly if the other dog were a female. Please apply online as he will be in a foster home and will need to be brought to the shelter for you to meet him. Last Modified: 2/28/2014 10:29:02 PM EST Printable Description

Stitch, 5 years Male Min Pin   Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Stitch is WONDERFUL dog who is in foster care so we know a LOT about him. He's an EASY keeper, already past his puppy years. He's born and raised in Massachusetts, was a stray. He's neutered and house trained. We're guessing he's around 5 years old. He's a nice little guy who was pudgy when he came in but he's slimming down. He's already lost 4 lbs in the past two weeks so he will be in great shape in no time. At first he didn't want to play with the other dogs but now he runs around with them in the yard initiating play. We're looking for an adult home because we don't know if he has a history with children. He likes to be petted but is not a pest about it. He's such a good-natured dog. He would probably be just fine with visiting kids, however. He prefers small dogs to large and is comfortable with the other four little dogs in his foster home. He is not good with cats, well, he barked at the cat during the cat test. We would prefer a fenced yard directly from house so he remains safe as he is very quick. He generally doesn't like to be carried around, but has been so tolerant of many people picking him up, we're amazed. He's going to make someone a nice little dog. He is very smart and very loving! Please fill out an application at www.saveadog.org if you are interested in meeting him. He will be shown only by appointment. Last Modified: 2/11/2014 12:04:40 PM EST Printable Description

Suzie Q, 1 year Female German Wired-Haired Pointer  Mix   Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Susie Q was found lying beside a busy road in rural TN. She was so filthy, confused and so very happy to see a human. After a search we could not locate her family. Susie Q is such a happy girl. She gets so excited when she sees people that she wiggles all over and folds herself in half. I guess she is not sure if she wants her head or back rubbed so this way you can do both. She has lots of puppy energy and will need a good run every day to help her settle and relax. She does well entertaining herself with toys and chews. She loves to run and play with other dogs. Susie Q is submissive at first with other dogs but once she gets to know them, which won’t take long, she will continue to encourage interaction to play with them. She loves toys, especially a tennis ball or her new favorite the ball on a rope. Susie Q is house trained and will let you know with a whine that she needs to go out. She will go in her crate, and if she whines while in her crate that is the signal she needs to go now! She is doing very well on a leash and will heal unless other people or dogs come by. She will sit and take her cookies gently . Susie is very smart and will do best with a “job” and strong owner, she just wants to please, but will try to take over if allowed.

Twist, ~ 2 - 3 years Female Lab/Corgi  Mix   Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Twist is a spayed about 2-3 yr female mixed breed dog that was in the animal shelter in TN. She was very afraid with all the big scary dogs around her. When they all started barking she would run outside in freezing temps just to get away, she thought she was going to be eaten. So she was taken out of the shelter and placed in foster. She was instantly accepted by all the other dogs in the foster home, which is always a very good sign of temperament. She is such a good girl, she wants to play with all the dogs, even the puppy, she loves soft squeaky toys has had no accidents in the house, and is just an all around love. She was left in an apartment when the owners moved away and the landlord called animal control. She should be a great fit with any family, but has not been child tested yet. She will need to shed some lbs, Save a dog will evaluate and a safe weight loss program will need to be followed to get her where she needs to be on her weight. We just can't believe such a sweet girl would be abandoned. Last Modified: 2/11/2014 12:05:14 PM EST Printable Description
