Aro, 8 Months Male Pom/Papillon
Mix
Click on picture to enlarge
Adopted
Aro is an 8 month old Pom mix who weighs 16#s. He is playful but very calm and well behaved in the house, he sleeps all night in his crate. Aro is not fully house trained but he is a smart little dog so should learn rather quickly. He enjoys being with people, playing with other dogs, is good with cats and children. He is content to just hang out with the family. He was fostered on a farm with several other other puppies, dogs, cats, free ranging guinea fowl and horses. Aro is a delightful fun little companion and anyone will fall in love with his personality. He loves to run through the sprinkler.
A stay-at-home or work-from-home is a must and he is too tiny for kids. Adult home preferred but not a lot of roommates. Pups need stability and a forever home. Because only 1 in 5 pups stay in their forever home we are very careful about placement. He weighs 15# and is 8 months old.
Cash is a 7-8 year old neutered Husky mix whose owner passed away and he was brought to a shelter, then lived with his foster mom for several years while she treated him for heart worm.
He's so very sweet, well behaved, minds very well. He's great with kids and other dogs. He loves everyone.
He has a calm personality but loves to run around in a fenced in backyard when he can.
He loves going for walks and is perfect on a leash. He likes toys and rawhide chews.
His foster mom loves it when she walks up to Cash he will raise his paw/leg as if he's waving "hello" to her. He is currently blowing his coat so we have him on a grain-free diet to help in case allergies come into play. Foster mom says it's seasonal.
He weighs 88 lbs. He is from Indiana and will be available on 8/26/17. Apply online at saveadog.org!
Charity is a very sweet one year old Collie mix looking for her forever home. She is spayed.
She's so very sweet, loving, with a calm personality. Charity is housebroken. She only weighs 18 lbs. She would not be one to sit at home while you're at work so please be a stay at home or work from home. Please apply before sending your email inquiries. She is available 8/26/17.
Meet Che! He's a big puppy with an even bigger heart. He has the sweetest brown eyes and loves to cuddle or even just follow you around. He likes to run around and play with his friend Dudley, who he arrived with. He's the perfect mix of playful and calm, and he loves squeaky toys. He's already house trained and really laid back for a puppy. He likes soft squeaky toys. He's quiet in his kennel. Please be a person that has the time for a puppy! CHE WILL BE AT THE MEET AND GREET ON SAT.
Chrissy, 7 months Female Chihuahua / Rat Terrier
Mix
Click on picture to enlarge
Adopted
Meet sweet Chrissy! She is a chi-rat terrier mix who is adorable. Chrissy is sweet as can be. In her foster home she hung out with her siblings and even got along with the cat. Chrissy however can be a little fearful of larger dogs. She enjoys being the Princess so she would be happy as an only dog. Chrissy use to have demodectic mange so she is still missing small patches of fur. Due to this she loves wearing little sweaters and shirts to keep warm. You can dress her up like a baby doll! Chrissy is also housebroken and crate trained. Once in awhile she will submissively pee if you go at her too quick. For this reason she might due best with experienced/older children. If you think you are the right fit for this little cutie please apply online today!
Hi I am Cindy, I just arrived from animal control in Boston. I am love attention and am a confident little dog. I really love when someone sits on the ground with me and pets me. If you think you are the person to give me a forever home, please fill out an online application at saveadog.org. I would be fine in an apartment and am not a barker. Please apply and come visit. P.S. I look scared in the picture but I'm not not scared at this point. Please give me a chance.
Cinnamon, 1 year Female Collie/Australian Shepherd
Mix
Click on picture to enlarge
Adopted
Cinnamon is a gorgeous Collie mix who was born 3-16-16 and surrendered by her owner in rural Indiana. She weighs 45 lbs. and would do best not in an urban environment as she's a country girl. We are told she does fine with other dogs. She loves playing with other dogs. She is nervous at first but warms up quickly. She will be wanting to chase geese off a golf course or herding your kids so teens and up is best for this girl. She will be available on 8/26/17. Please fill out the application online before sending an email.
Cona is a pup whose mom was the sister to Winchester and Gunner's mom. They have some bird dog, some Collie, maybe some Retriever. Available 8/26/17. Please have a fenced in yard for these pups and know that you can't leave a puppy in a crate for 4 hours then come home for lunch and leave for another 4 hours. It would be a long, sad day for an active puppy. Please apply online if interested and come meet her on Sat 12-3.
Dexter is a 3 month old Beagle pup who was bought from a breeder by college students thought it was cute to teach him to growl. We are working with him and he is making great progress, but we think an experienced, adult only home is a must for this pup! He has many attributes: he is almost potty trained, sleeps in his crate at night, and plays nicely with the resident dogs. Another dog in the home will help, but is not a requirement. Doggy daycare is okay a few days a week, but not full time so if you work from home a few days a week, we would certainly consider you a possible match. Only one in five pups stay in their original home and he's already lost one home so please be serious about the long-term commitment. Please apply at saveadog.org/applytoadopt.asp and we will contact you.
Meet Dudley! He will melt your heart. He is a sweet-hearted boy that loves to play with his friend Che and loves to come to people for cuddles and pets. He's playful yet calm and has adorable spots under his white coat. His foster mom says, "He is housebroken (has not had one accident in the house). Mostly housetrained. He likes to drag things into his crate and just keep them there but doesn't usually chew on them. Friendly to all the dogs he has met so far (so far, they have all been female). Not protective of food or toys. Lots of energy for playing outside but is calm in the house; likes to curl up on the sofa and snuggle. Good in the crate; sleeps through the night without a peep. Pretty good on leash; tends to be all over the place looking at and smelling things but is not a puller. Comes when called and responds quickly to verbal correction. So far, he has just ignored the cats. He is really a great little dog/puppy." Please be a person that has time for a puppy! DUDLEY WILL BE AT THE MEET AND GREET ON SAT.
Faith is a 1 year old Beagle/Collie mix. Spayed, so very sweet and loving with a calm personality
Great with kids and other dogs. She is housebroken . She is a delightful little dog who is friendly with children and dogs and cats. Weighs 18 lbs. Arriving 8/23/17 and available 8/26/17.
Hi there, I'm Gulliver! I'm a neutered male Corgi who is two years old and 30 adorable pounds. I was adopted briefly but I was needy for attention and didn't want to share my space with their other dog, so I'd like to be an only dog please! Don't worry, I'm happy to meet other dogs on the street. I was going to be euthanized by the county shelter because I was afraid to have a collar or harness on me, so Save a Dog saved me and is working to train me. I would best like a fenced in yard, at least until I walk better on leash. Please apply for me online since I'm staying in a foster home!
Jake is a 2-year-old neutered Spaniel who has a soft bonding personality, but needs an experienced adopter as he can be very anxious in new situations. He has a lot of pluses. He is dog, cat, and people social, and very tuned in to everything in his surroundings. He's house trained and is not a marker.
When Jake first came to live in his foster home he had some anxiety issues such as whining and trying to get out of the door to be with his foster mom. He was clingy but this only lasted for a week or so and once he felt comfortable he settled right in and did very well when left alone. It would be best if Jake's new family could get him into a routine right away so that he doesn't develop separation anxiety. He is a wonderful and handsome little dog worthy of a forever loving family. Available after 7/17. Please apply online before emailing. JAKE WILL BE AT THE MEET AND GREET ON SATURDAY 8/12 FROM 12:30-2:00
Laverne and Shirley are two twenty-four month old Corgi mixes. They have nice personalities and are already spayed and up to date on vaccines. Both want to be lap dogs, ride well in a car, walk well on leash, and are housebroken. Mom was a purebred Corgi. Available after 8/22/17.
Linus is a sweet 2 year old neutered Pekinese. He weighs 18 lbs. He is fine with other dogs. He has a charming under-bite and loves to chase a ball. He's also a big cuddler and likes to sit in your lap. Friendly and active. He has a soft, long coat. If you already have an application in with us, you do not need to apply again, We will apply that application to Linus, so come meet this friendly dog!

Martini is a sweet three year old Corgi/Chi mix who was left in a rusty crate in front of a liquor store in a seaport town in Massachusetts. She was very frightened in the pound so Save A Dog was asked to take her and we're glad we did -- she is a sweet dog. She appears to be spayed; a tattoo was found. She deserves a forever and LOVING home!
Hi everybody! My name is Max, and I'm a chihuahua, which means I am very cute and small (7.2 pounds to be exact!) I'm a neutered male and was surrendered because my owner didn't have enough time to take care of me. I love to play tug with other dogs. I am rough and tumble so am a better match for a robust dog than a senior. I love to steal another dog's treats. I'm quite the character, am too rough for small children as I will tug at your clothes when you're trying to get dressed. I will chase cats if they run. I'm a sweetheart, shy at first but then just excited to be with my people, so give me a chance and apply online to adopt me! I love to hang out in your arms and check out everything around me. Apply at SaveADog.org/applytoadopt.asp
Hi, my name is Mini Moe. I am very underweight and my coat needs a good grooming. However you would never know that I've been neglected because I am a love bug. I like to run around and play with toys when I am outside. I also like to be cuddled. If you are interested in me please fill out an online application at saveadog.org
Ramsey is a 4 year old neutered Norwegian Elkhound mix who ended up in a shelter in WV. He is a nice size at 29 lbs. He has been fine with other dogs. He is friendly and active. When he sees you he gets so excited, but give him a minute and he'll calm down. He knows his commands too. He would be a great hiking partner. He already knows sit and shake paw.

Hello, my name is Ron and I need your help. I came from a bad hoarding situation in MA where I lived with 30 other dogs. Save A Dog took me in and I was so happy, but while playing with my siblings I landed wrong and broke my front leg. The vet said that my malnourishment took it's toll. I just had surgery and the vet bill was over $2000. Please help with my medical bill so that Save A Dog can continue to save dogs like me. Thank you so much! I'm a good boy, even though shy. I let anyone pick me up and pet me. The miracle that happened is that the vet who cared for me fell in love with me and is adopting me.
Rosie is a gorgeous 7 month old retriever and collie mix. She loves attention, both dog and human. She can spend hours running in the yard with her buddy Sully. Although she is a love bug, teens and up would be best as she is a big dog with lots of energy. She knows sit and is working on lay down. With the right training she'll be a dream dog. Please fill out an online application if you are interested in meeting Rosie.

Ruby is an awesome 8 year old female Collie/Corgi/Lab mix who loves to swim and hike or just chill in the back yard. She had a suburban life style so we'd like to match her with a home that has a yard or where she gets plenty of opportunities for exercise. She's an active dog. The couple who adopted her had a baby and she was good until the baby became mobile but is too nervous around the baby and needs a home without small children. Ages 10 and up would be fine for her. Ruby has a lot to offer and is in good health with regular vetting every year. She will be available Sunday, August 6th to be seen. Please fill out the application before coming in to meet her.
Hello there, I am Shandee! I weigh 47 pounds and have a lot of spunk for my age. Even with all that spunk I am still easy to walk on leash. I also know my basic commands like sit and come. I have recently been in a foster home so I am house trained and know what is expected of me in a home. I was found all on my own wandering the streets of Georgia. I am here now in MA ready to find my "furever" home. If you believe you're the person for me please fill out and online application at saveadog.org so you can come meet me! I am healthy, spayed, micro chipped and ready for some love. Her paperwork indicates an age of 5 but we think she might be closer to 7 or 9. The vet said "middle-aged". She is sweet as she can be. We would like to see her go to an adult home. Visiting kids would be fine. She's loving to all she meets.
Laverne and Shirley are two twenty-four month old Corgi mixes. They have nice personalities and are already spayed and up to date on vaccines. Both want to be lap dogs , ride well in a car, walk well on leash, and are housebroken. Mom was a purebred Corgi. Available after 8/22/17.
Sirius is a 6 month old terrier mix who loves to play, play, play. He's all puppy. He loves his toys, love loves to fetch, but won't bring it back yet. We were told Sirius is a rat terrier. We believe he might even have some whippet or bully in him because he's bigger than most rat terriers. No matter the breeds in him, Sirius is a wonderful guy. He gets along great with both people and dogs. He plays well with Sully and Rose. This guy really deserves the best. If you believe you're the right fit for him please fill out an online application and come to one of our meet and greets. SIRIUS WILL BE AT THE MEET AND GREET ON SAT and SUN

Sully is a 6 month old Retriever/Hound mix who is looking for a forever home. He is a goofy pup who loves to play. He can spend hours playing with his friend Rosie in the yard. He also loves getting pats and kisses. He is still growing so he can be pretty clumsy and silly. As he is still learning his size we recommend ten and up for him, but he's friendly with everybody. He has no issues, none. He's too young to sit home waiting for a dog walker so doggy daycare or a stay-at-home or work-from-home would be best for this playful boy. Please apply online and then come see him on Sat 12-3.
