Story
Affectionate and playful with my family and always up for a new adventure or challenge, I’ll bring lots of energy and joy to my new home. I was adopted in April 2022, when I was 5 months old, as a little brother for my mom’s first pup, but she’s found the demands of raising 2 young working/sporting males in the city to be more than she can manage given all her other commitments. I’m house trained, leash trained (tho I get excited when I see a rabbit or squirrel), neutered, fully vaxed, and I travel well in the car. I’ve got great recall, respond to all the basic commands, learn quickly, luv 2 please. Seeking an active, dog-savvy family who love shepherds and are mostly home/available to walk/hike, cuddle, play. Big enclosed yard and other dog/s bonus.

Story
Meet Happy, a charming and unique dog with a personality to match his one-of-a-kind looks! This friendly guy is great at making human friends and has a history of being snuggly and social with his previous family. Happy is full of energy and is looking for a family that can keep him mentally and physically active. He thrives when positive training methods are used to bring out his best qualities. Although Happy has a good history of making dog friends, he’s still learning the best way to introduce himself to others, so he will need a bit of guidance in that area. With patience and support, he’ll surely improve his greetings.Happy would likely do best in a quiet neighborhood where he can relax and focus on himself, while still having the chance for plenty of fun and adventures with his forever family. Could you be the one to give this wonderful boy the love and care he deserves?If you think this dog could be a good match for your home 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. Preparing your home for your new dog or puppy ahead of time can help ease the transition for your new pet and set you both up for success should there be a dog that’s a good match! To learn more about how to make the first few weeks with your new dog or puppy the most successful it can be, please visit www.mspca.org/petresources. 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.

Story
Meet Jax, the lovable, gentle pup who`s ready to make your home his own—just like the clever Kevin McCallister from Home Alone! At first, Jax might be a little reserved, like Kevin’s cautious approach to the intruders, but once he gets to know you, he’s all heart. Think of him as the ultimate sidekick, waiting to be your loyal partner in crime for cozy nights in, playful adventures, and all the love you can give. Jax may need a little time to adjust, but once he does, you`ll see his true, sweet nature shine. With patience, he’ll be the perfect companion for all your Home Alone moments! We think Jax could likely do well in a home with cats and could live with kids.If you think this dog could be a good match for your home and would like to learn more, stop by our Boston Adoption Center.

Story
Meet Ozzy, the lovable 3-year-old pup who`s ready to cast a spell on your heart! With his big, soulful eyes and boundless energy, this sweet and affectionate dog is looking for a forever home where he can be your loyal companion. In true typical shepherd fashion, Ozzy likes to make sure he`s heard. Though he can be a bit anxious when first transitioning to a new home, just like Elphaba finding her place in the world, once he settles in, Ozzy will be your most devoted friend. If you`re looking for a dog who`ll be both mischievous and loving, Ozzy`s ready to be your `Good News` in this magical journey of companionship. Ozzy may enjoy having a dog friend to hangout with, but would prefer an adult only household.

Story
Before calling about this dog, please read our adoption requirements at: https://gsrne.org/requirements-for-adopting-from-gsrne/ Hi!  My name is Muks. Could YOU be my Forever Family!!! I would love to come be with YOU forever. I am young and active and love to do lots of fun things with my person. Whether it’s chasing balls in the backyard, playing outside with the kids, hiking or going for walks, or going to training and learning all about how to be the best dog I can be! I love belly rubs and if you scratch my tail, I’ll even do my special little happy dance for you! I’ve become quite the young man since I’ve been with my foster dad and I’m well-behaved in the home – no counter surfing, no jumping on furniture, and I give people their space when they have work to do.  Yay, me!  And since I’m not quite two years old I have plenty of energy and would love it if you’d take me for training, or maybe explore doing scent-work, agility, or other fun stuff too.  I’ve been told I’m much more confident, respectful, and friendly with dogs now than I was initially. I think I would love to live with another dog because I would love to have a playmate who could help me build more confidence. I wouldn’t mind living with the right female dog, a good-natured pal I could play with and continue to learn from. When the day is done, I just want to roll over for those belly rubs.  I can’t wait to meet you and give you all my loving!!!

Story
Are you an active person seeking a likeminded companion for life’s adventures? Well then Tank just may be your guy. Tank is a gorgeous, athletic 2 year old male who’s always on the go. You know those hilarious Facebook/Insta Reels or TikToks your friends send you about the dogs carrying the log 6x the size of their body? This would most definitely be Tank! He loves everything play, he is not a couch potato and will keep you on your toes. We suspect he is likely a working line GSD so he has great drive. He wants to please and needs mental stimulation. We believe he has potential for SAR work or other sporting events. He’d make a great hiking partner. Tank is affectionate and loves to be with his people. He did have a female GSD housemate so, with proper introductions, he could live with another similarly sized female tolerant of his energy. Like all GSDs of his caliber, training and routine are a must. If you make the commitment to Tank, you will have one amazing sidekick. Apply today.
