Story
Hello everyone! This is Anthony he is 1yr and 2 months old male. His mom is a Pitbull and dad is an American Bully. He comes from an unplanned litter of 9 puppies. Anthony is the leader of our pack and sometimes does not know his own strength. He is dog friendly but will probably do best in a home with no other dogs. Anthony has a lot of energy and would do well in an active household. However during downtime is very affectionate and LOVES to be loved on. Anthony does well on and off leash. He’s food driven, very laid back (once that energy is re-directed). He is a very strong dog and needs someone who can handle his strength and provide him structure. We were able to rehome many of the pups including Anthony but because of marital circumstance he was unfortunately returned back to us. I just need help finding a good home for him due to us having his mom, dad and his 3 sibling we are not able to give him the attention he needs and deserves.

Story
Loki is a very energetic, very smart, very attached 1 year old purebred German Shepherd puppy. Unfortunately, Loki doesn't get along with our other dog and it is causing a stressful living environment for both dogs. He would thrive in an only dog household and with someone who is experienced with working breeds. He loves going for walks, playing fetch, and especially loves using his nose to find hidden treats. He did do a 3-week bootcamp so he is fairly good on commands/recall but would benefit from continued training. And even though he is a high energy dog, when it's time to settle down there's nothing better than him resting his head on your arm at peace.

Story
Attention attention! Up next and ready for adoption is Storm. This is Storm, she is a 8yr old pit bull, going to be 9 on December 22nd. She doesn’t do to well with many other dogs, and will chase a cat. She is good with kids, however is getting to an age where she doesn’t want to be bothered too much by them. She loves walks, parks, going for rides in the car really anything outdoors. She enjoys playing with rope toys or stuffed animals, not so much large balls. She has skin allergies that require a specific soap called Duoxo S3 PYO, I typically order it on Amazon. She was neutered in 2019, as well as microchipped. Shes been recently given her 1 yrs rabies shots, and will need them again before 9/11/2025. She is a loving dog in need of a good home with plenty of cuddles. Serious inquiries ONLY! Many thanks, Gimmie Paw 🐾

Story
Missty is a 2 and a half year old American Bully full of life and love. She received her name because she is Grey and we acquired her during a light rain storm. She has an extra s for her personality. She does well around people, other dogs, and kids. She grew up with her human father, human mother, and her two human sisters 9 and 15. She does bark at strangers in the home but is never aggressive. She accepts all strangers. She has never bitten or knicked anyone. She loves to play and have her belly rubbed. She's needs a loving family with a home she can thrive in as we no longer have the means for her care.

Story
Priscilla5 Months OldSpayed FemaleMeet Priscilla! This young lady can be a little shy at first when meeting new people, but blossoms into a social butterfly after getting to know you. She could benefit from having a quieter-traffic home and a family that can work at her pace as she first settles in. As Priscilla gets more confident, she’ll be sure to show you all her favorite toys! Priscilla could do well with a confident, tolerant dog friend who can help show her the ropes, a dog-savvy cat with a slow introduction, and children!If you think you are a good fit and would like to learn more, stop by our Boston Adoption Center. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 12pm-3pm – no appointment needed to speak to a staff person regarding available dogs. For more information on our adoption process, please visit https://www.mspca.org/adoption-centers/how-to-adopt/ Please note, in an effort to keep the stress levels reduced for the dogs in our care, our dog kennel areas will not be open to walk through.

Cat and small animal areas will remain open to walk through.

Story
I`m currently in a foster home and not at the adoption center. Come in to talk with our staff about me and arrange a time to meet me!**My adoption fee is waived thanks to the generosity of a donor.** Chencho5 years oldAmerican Bully Have you ever dreamt of having your very own house hippo? Well dream no further! Chencho is the chunkiest house hippo on the block and is ready to dazzle you with his ample good looks and charm. This large couch potato would make a great companion in a variety of households as long as there are plenty of scritches available for him! He is not a fan of sharing his favorite things, so he would do best in a home without young children. He might be able to live with another dog with plenty of management. Chencho seems to have some allergies so it will be important to have a close relationship with a veterinarian to keep him feeling his best. Regardless, he promises to wiggle his way into your heart in no time! If you think you are a good fit and would like to learn more, stop by our Boston Adoption Center. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 12pm-3pm no appointment needed to speak to a staff person regarding available dogs.
