Barney, 8 years old Male Basset Hound   Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Barney is a sweet Basset who is estimated at 8, but he is showing us he's got great energy. He can even jump in and out of the bath tub and prefers to drink out of the tub. He is completely housebroken...has not had one accident and is not a leg lifter. He is completely safe in the house except he does chase cats. We don't think placing him with a cat would be a good idea. He is good on leash and LOVES going for walks. Very affectionate with humans. He is fine with other dogs but doesn't interact with them at all; tends to just ignore them. I don't view him as a playmate for another dog. He is great in the crate; I just throw a treat in and he goes right in; he doesn't like being in the crate but he is good about it, doesn't bark or howl; and he sleeps through the night. Hates having anything done with his ears. But he is sweet, sweet, sweet and cute, cute, cute, especially when he runs. Won't you give this great dog a home? He was given up due to foreclosure. Our process is that you fill out the application first, then in one or two days we will contact you if your application is a match. Please read our guidelines under Apply to Adopt as some dogs require a stay-at-home and some dogs require a fenced in yard. Sponsors for these dogs would be most welcomed and appreciated.

Chloe, ~1-2 years Female Pom/Spitz  Mix Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Chloe is a young spayed female Pom/Spitz mix. She weighs 9.5 lbs. She was rescued in WV and flown to MA by Pilots 'n Paws (thank you, Pilots!). She plays nice with other dogs and is a gentle little dog. Her coat was real dry when she came in but the owner said she used to give her baths all the time, so maybe the coat got dried out. She's on a high quality dog food now with some raw meat added so her coat is looking better. Chloe is housebroken yet crates quietly. She will go to the door and scratch when she has to go out. She prefers to lie on the top of the couch, and she takes treats calmly from your hand. She would be fine with visiting children, but is too delicate to be carted around by little ones. Gentle tweens would be ideal or an adult home. She has lived in a multiple-dog household, but didn't get much attention there, so maybe just one other dog would be okay for her. She needs lots of one-on-one for herself without another dog getting jealous. Availability 10/6/09. Last Modified: 10/25/2009 9:40:41 PM EST Printable Description

She was abandoned in WV in early August, then rescued by a humane society and she was thin and had mange, but look at her now. She's gained the weight back and her coat has filled in beautifully. She appears to have had at least one litter of puppies. She is very active and immediately used the newspapers when she was brought to her foster home. She is good with the other dogs. She worked and worked until she was able to climb onto a pile of "stuff" on the floor and jump into bed with the humane society director. She is a real cuddler and a snuggler, but she also can play, play, play. She tells us she wants a nice cushy life from here on out and wants to be with her people day and night. These pictures were taken when she was first rescued. She looks nice and filled out now. She is leash trained, paper trained, good with dogs and cats. She will get into stuff so needs to be crated when not supervised. She will be available 10/6/09. Thank you to Pilots 'n Paws for flying her from WV to MA. You folks are the best!

Lola, 2 years Female Shih Tzu Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Lola is an adorable 2 year old spayed female Shih Tzu who is perfect in many ways, but was given up due to a housetraining issue.

She is gentle with children, very friendly with everyone, sweet and loves to be held. She is a real lap dog but she also loves her toys and balls. She has a wardrobe that is enviable and was well cared for in her previous home. She is up to date on vaccines and we prefer a holistic home from here out as she has a sensitive stomach and sometime itchy skin, which is typical of many small white dogs. Her coat is beautiful and well groomed currently so with a high quality dog food or the raw diet, she will flourish. She will not be at the meet and greet on Sunday. She is available by private appointment as she is in a foster home. Last Modified: 10/31/2009 8:36:56 PM EST Printable Description

Skippy, ~2 years old Male Jack Russell  Mix Click on picture to enlarge Adopted "My name is Skippy, My foster mom rescued me from an animal shelter in TN. I had never been indoors so when I got to my foster home it was a little hard to understand all the rules. Mom named me Skippy cause I have a happy little skip in my trot. I was supposed to come to MA a long time ago but I tested positive for heartworms and had to have some very painful treatments, I was also neutered, I have been through a lot but that is behind me. I feel great now and can't wait for my new life. My foster mom says I am a good boy. She calls me a snuggle bum because that is one of my favorite things, I love my toys and play great with all the other dogs here. I know I'm supposed to go outside to go potty. At first I jumped on her for attention, then she taught me the word NO! and Down! so I always try to remember not to do those things. We have two cats here and at first I thought it would be fun to chase them, the cats hissed and swatted and chased me, so I don't chase cats anymore, instead we all sit and watch tv. I love to be indoors, and rides in the car are great, unless we are going to the dogtor, then I get a little sad. I walk pretty good on the leash, but would love to go to the park and practice. I'm not that crazy about being in a crate, I cry when I'm in there for too long, but if I have a toy and a chew bone it's not so bad. Mom says I am a happy boy and makes her smile, I don't know why, I'm just being me!" :-) This little guy is cute, cute, and now available for adoption.

Phone calls are discouraged as it takes time away from the care of the dogs to answer questions that might already be on our web site. We tend to put down everything we know. If information is missing, it's usually because we don't know. :-) Last Modified: 10/8/2009 6:31:56 PM EST Printable Description

Sweet, 1 year Female Spaniel/beagle  Mix Click on picture to enlarge Adopted Hi.....my name is Sweet. I'm one year old and I'm spayed. I came from Mississippi. I was rescued from a horrible place by a nice lady who said she was going to find me a REALLY GOOD home. She had gotten a call from the man who was supposed to be feeding me, but wasn't! He told her he didn't want "no pregnant dog" and to come get me! My rescuer didn't want the ACO to wrap a noose around my neck and pick me up and throw me in the back of a pickup truck, so she rode all the way out in the country where I had been dropped off, and she found me! And guess what? I was NOT pregnant! But I was about to die from so many fleas all over me and I was starving to death!! After my rescuer had me spayed and checked for heartworms (and I was heartworm free!), my previous owner called back and said he wanted me!! But when he found out he would have to pay my medical, he got mad and hung up! I was soooo glad.....he never fed me or even gave me water! My rescuer fostered me for months and kept telling me how lucky I was getting to go to Massachusetts! She said I was going to have the best home in the world! I'm a little shy and afraid of people at first, but I just love other dogs. My rescuer thinks I've been abused and will warm up to my new owner after given just a short time! I think she's right! I just want real love! I don't even mind cats! Last Modified: 10/8/2009 6:32:21 PM EST Printable Description
