My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

MEET FINNY the Malamute Mix! Check out his video!

Have you ever seen such a handsome face? Are you looking for a very sweet and loving personality to go with that face? Well, Finny is your boy! He`s a 5 year old weighing 72 pounds but most of that is a fluffy coat ready to keep you warm all winter long! Finny is a happy dog looking for his next adventure with you! He and his previous owner came all the way from the west coast and then his owner had to move and Finny couldn`t go. So, now he`s searching for you. He knows that his ancestors had a job of pulling sleds and will need some work on leash manners. Perhaps his new job will be being your favourite boy. Finny would most likely prefer to be the only dog in his home as he can be a little selective with who he hangs out with. This high energy boy loves playing fetch and has even enjoyed going on runs during his stay here. In foster Finny was described as a high drive dog who was happy to settle on the couch after burning off some steam! If you`re looking for a fun hiking buddy, look no further than this man! Finny would do best in a structured teen/adult only home preferably outside of the city!

Please note Finny requires multiple meets before going to his forever home!

Finny is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been neutered, microchipped, and seen by our vet team.

More about this shelter

Situated 10 miles southwest of Boston on the beautiful grounds of the former summer sanctuary for the city’s working horses, ARL’s newly remodeled shelter in Dedham, Massachusetts is just a glimpse into ARL’s bold future. The new modern shelter design allows us to provide even more animals with high-quality direct animal care that meets best-practice standards in animal welfare.
