Astro is one of three border collie puppies found by the side of a road and then turned into a city shelter without a mom when they were five weeks old. Because the shelter is no place for a baby, all three pups were rescued by PAWS from Irving Animals. They are fun little pups who love to wrestle and play with one another. Now that they are in foster care, they are learning how to play with toys and chase their foster humans around the house. It's a puppy parade with Ranger and friends!

Barney is a fun-loving, super friendly, playful one year old dog. He weighs 21 lbs and likes to play with dogs big and small. He'll bounce his way into a new family -- he knows how to settle down with an antler or bully stick too. We are not sure of his mix, but based on his size and appearance he likely has a healthy mix of whippet/sight hound and perhaps some jack russell or parson terrier. One thing is for sure - he's an affectionate guy who will win your heart!
Hi! I'm Colby and I'm a big, one-year-old boy at 67 pounds. I'm a big bundle of love. I have a cuddly personality and also like to run like a puppy. When I see a human outside, I love to follow them around an roll over for a tummy rub. I also have beautiful brown eyes and a multi-brown coat. I get anxious in the kennel, so please come give me a chance and adopt me!

Dandelion is an amazing dog who came to Save A Dog and had her puppies the next day. She is a bit of a celebrity here, so we've been holding out for the absolute best home. She's 2 years old and sleeps in her crate at night. She's still young, so will go after a shoe or something if she is left to her own devices. She loves car rides and she travels to Block Island with her foster mom quite frequently and rides the ferry like she's done it all her life. She loves to run on the beach. Dandelion has been living with another female Lab and they have been best buds. She would love another dog or to be with her person during the day. She has rarely been alone so it would be difficult for her to go to a working home. She's very playful and likes rough and tumble so would be too much for an older dog or a smaller dog. She can be shown by private appointment once we receive your application. We're looking for a very special home for this special dog.
Three-year-old Dolly is a Giant Schnauzer mix who is shy at first, but she will soon be following you all around and will win your heart. Miss Dolly was so chill and almost timid at the shelter. In her foster home she's a party girl! Loves to play, chase, fetch, roll over, and bounce! She's hilarious! :) She will let you know she has to "go" by pacing around. She was fostered with cats and dogs. She's nervous around cars, so a quieter neighborhood is best. She likes to chase balls and will throw her toys in the air. She is spayed, . Applications, not email inquiries, will receive a response. Please apply at http://www.saveadog.org/applytoadopt.asp and read the requirements.
Duchess is a beautiful one year old Basset mix who hails from TX. She is spayed, up to date on vaccines and is microchipped and ready for her new home!

Hello, my name is Heidi! I am four years old and weigh in at 74 pounds. I am a beautiful dog with a gorgeous long coat. I will definitely need regular grooming so my coat doesn't get matted. I am great with other dogs. I have a playmate who is half my size and I make sure to always be gentle with her. The people at Save A Dog think I might have some Husky or Malamute in me because I am a talker. When someone I really like comes by I howl a little and wag my tail lots. All I want is cuddles and kisses. I am originally from Georgia and have come to MA to find my furever home; if you think you are the one for me please fill out an online application at saveadog.org
Hershey is a handsome 5 year old Chocolate Lab rescued from a large shelter in TX and brought to MA for Save A Dog to find him an awesome home. Hershey is a friendly, outgoing boy who learns quickly with a treat. He already knows Sit! He gets along with EVERYBODY - he stayed the long weekend with a different foster who has 3 pit bulls, a cat and a preschool age girl and he had a BLAST! Such a happy-go-lucky guy. Please get your application in right away so you don't miss out.
JJ is a 5-month-old Parsons Terrier pup whose owner could no longer care for him. He is a sweetheart and gentle soul, who can be a little shy at first but warms up to people beautifully and has plenty of puppy love to go around. Please be someone who has time for a puppy! We like to see stay-at-home, part-time, or flexible workers who can give a new puppy lots of training and attention. Please apply at saveadog.org/applytoadopt.asp and we will contact you when he's available.
Nyla is a six year old spayed female Husky mix. She has lived in one home since she was a puppy and a change in her adopter's working hours has her spending many hours home alone. She is looking for a new home.
She loves being pampered, from getting pets to even taking a bath. She loves being outside, roaming and sniffing or just laying in the sun! She is very friendly and curious, she hasn't met a dog she hasn't gotten along with. She'll play but is just as happy being around a calm dog.
She does take time to warm up to someone but once she does she'll always remember you and be fine around you. Otherwise, patience is key, gotta let her come up to you.
She really is a sweetheart, but just know that she kinda does things on her own terms, she may want to cuddle some days, others she may find a secluded spot by herself.
I really think she has a huge heart and just wants to be loved. The owner said she hated cats, but she's being fostered with a cat right now and is great, so maybe it depends on the cat.
Due to a condition that she's had since birth, her head often wobbles and she sometimes loses her balance. However, she's learned to live with this and functions very well. Come meet this wonderful dog!

Samson, 10 months Male Labrador Retriever/Flat-Coated Retriever
Mix
Click on picture to enlarge
Adopted
Samson is a 10 month old neutered male Labrador Retriever/Flat-Coated Retriever mix. He is just a big teddy bear with a nice, soft coat. Samson is obsessed with water and we can't keep his water bowls in the kennel because he likes to pop them out of the holders and splash all around. He would be a great water dog. Samson looks like he weighs a good 50 pounds at least.
He will sit on command but could use more leash work. Samson's former owner said he is good with kids, but can knock them down in his excitement. He is still recovering from the kennel cough brought on by the bordetella vaccine so is not available quite yet. Get your application in for when he is available because he's not going to last a second.
Scarlett, 3-4 years old Female Corgi/Jack Russell/Mini Aussie?
Mix

Adopted
Scarlett is approximately 3-4 yrs old and is the cutest little dog ever. She has a bob tail and has lots of personality. She gets along very nicely with other dogs. She is a pistol of a little dog, loves attention and enjoys going for walks and car rides. She was a stray so not much is known about her interactions with children but so far has done great with visiting children. She s not cat friendly. She is a cutie looking for her forever family. Please apply at saveadog.org/applytoadopt.asp and we will contact you when she's available.
Schooner is a approx. 3 year old Retriever mix and a very special dog with the most soulful eyes. He has a calm, quiet soul, and he enjoys long walks and being around water. Schooner would love to be a travelling dog as he absolutely adores riding in the car and is the perfect passenger. He is excellent in the house. The only vice he has ever displayed is he does not like his feet touched and needs some reassurance during his vet visits. The foster mom feels like he would be best in a home with mature people that will have ample time to spend with him. His foster Mom adores him and could never say enough good about him. He deserves the most special home where he can hang out with his people. He will never disappoint you.
Just look at those ears! Scooter is an adorable 5 month old Jack Russell/Rat Terrier mix (we first thought Italian Greyhound, but now that we've had him we think Jack Rat). He is a little character who likes to sit up high on the back of a sofa, on his perch, so he is able to see everything. He is extremely curious. He likes you to be with him when he eats. He's a friendly little guy. He sleeps all night in his crate, walks well on leash, knows to do his business outside. As with any puppy he will need training and plenty of attention throughout the day. We've been furburizing him and he's doing very well, but he needs his people close by. Whoever adopts Scooter is in for a lot of laughter and fun. He is super smart and not a live wire. He can chill with the best of them. Please apply online and we can arrange for you to meet him this week!

Mix

Adopted
Hi there, my name is Sid! I was born on March 1st in Texas. I came all the way to MA because people said they have great homes here. I am a beautiful brindle boy with gorgeous light eyes to match. I might be too much for little children because I want to play so much. Teens and up would probably be best for me. I need someone with the time and energy to train me as these first few months of my life are crucial. Right now I am getting over an ear infection. With this new medicine they gave me though I am already feeling and looking better! If you would like to adopt me please fill out an online application at saveadog.org
Teens & up for this pup.

Sunshine, 4 years Female Long-haired Chihuahua
Mix
Click on picture to enlarge
Adopted
This Sunshine will definitely make you happy when skies are gray! Timid at first, Sunshine warms up quickly and will become your Velcro dog within a day. She loves to snuggle with her person and will follow them anywhere. She is also content to lay in her bed or chase squirrels in the yard. Due to her delicate size, she would be best suited to an adult or teen and up home. She would be the ideal dog for an older stay-at-home person looking for unwavering adoration and companionship. She got along well with the two other dogs and one cat in her foster home, but her happiness lies with her people interactions, so she would flourish as an only dog. As she came in as a stray and has not been fostered long, we don’t know much about her housebreaking habits. She seems to get the outside thing, but may need some time to get into a routine like most dogs in a new environment. If you have always wanted the perfect pocket dog, apply today!
Sunshine is a 7 year old long-haired chihuahua mix, weighing about 5lbs - yes, just 5 lbs! Sunshine loves to be held and cuddled.

Applications, not email inquiries, will receive a response. Please apply at http://www.saveadog.org/applytoadopt.asp and pls read the requirements.
