Story

Are you ready for some big puppy fun??? Cooper is a happy, clever young guy that is looking for adopters that will be excited to help him achieve best boy ever status! This means positive rewards training, fine tuning house training, exercise and tons of fun and laughs in between. Because Cooper loves everyone he meets and gets very excited, he might forget all about the polite way to greet people and be a bit on the jumpy side. Teens that are comfortable with bouncy young dogs and will participate in his training, will be considered. He can potentially join a home with a resident dog that is comfortable with his rough and tumble play style and who can be a good role model. No cats in the home at this time, please. Cooper is ready to become a wonderful companion for many years, he just needs to find his forever family. If you think he might be the one for you, please drop by the shelter during open hours to talk to staff. Tuesday- Sunday 12-3p

Story

Meet young puppy Bocce. This is a happy go lucky guy with a lot of energy.He loves to entertain himself with toys and is really good walking on aleash. Oh, dont let that adorable face fool you. This puppy will requirea bit more training with polite greetings and to use that puppy mouthappropriately. Luckily, Bocce loves his snacks and will train for cookies.This good boy is looking to join a low traffic home with older kids only tohelp him become his best self. The best situation would be if he could livewith an older, patient dog that will teach him the ropes. Here at theshelter, he has enjoyed play dates with other dogs. We have no history ofwhat Bocce thinks of cats, so a dog-savvy cat would be a possibility.Does Bocce sound like the pup for you?

Story

This is Poppy. She is a pretty, happy hound who is sweet and fun. Thisgirl is quite an athlete. Just look at those long legs! Poppy would be aperfect walking companion because she loves her long sniffy walks. Shealso walks well with other dogs. However, when playing with other dogs shecan be a bit pushy. Any dog she lives with would need to be tolerant. Shecould possibly live with a cat using slow integration. And children bigenough to handle a bouncy dog and who could help with training wouldprobably work. Here at the shelter, pretty Poppy is working hard on hermanners and house training. She is hoping her adopters will continue thistraining. Would you like to meet this fun girl? Come see Poppy at theMSPCA in Methuen on Tuesdays through Sundays from 12PM to 4:30PM.
