Story
Meet sweet and sensitive Tess! Tess is a petite pittie girl looking for a relaxing spot to come home. While Tess is a mature 7 year old lady and loves lounging with her friends, she still has that party-girl side to her that everyone loves! Tess is looking for a home who is ready to support her more fearful side and give her time and space to settle into a new life. She has been through some more challenging changes recently, so it will be important for adopters to have patience taking this girl home. Tess walks quite well on leash, is settles nicely with toys or a chew, and is really trainy! Tess is kindly asking to be your only girl in the home, meaning she isn`t looking to live with dogs, cats, or younger kids at this time.Interested in learning more about Tess? Come by our Methuen adoption center Tuesday-Sunday between the hours of 12PM-4:30PM to chat with a staff member!

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? If so, please head to the MethuenMSPCA location Tuesday-Sunday between the hours of 12PM-3PM!

She has shown some interest in mellow dogs, so we think shecould do well with a role model dog who could show her the ropes.If you think this dog could be a good match for you and would like to learnmore, stop by our Methuen location to speak with our staff about her.

Story
Ruthie's story is very sad. Her owners (never found) tied her to a telephone pole at a gas station in the middle of the night on a cold winter's night. Two young men who pulled in to get gas early in the morning saw her and took her into their car. They then contacted us to see if we could take her in. She was so scared and freezing cold she just cowered in fear for about a week. We are convinced that she was physically abused as well. Little by little she started to come out of her shell. We left her in our nursery building for a few weeks because we thought she may be pregnant. It was obvious that she had had a litter at some point in her life. Turns out she wasn't pregnant so we put her in with the general population where she has thrived. She loves playing with the puppies, she's great with cats and wonderful with children as all Pitties are. She has been spayed, is heart worm negative, fully vaccinated, crate trained and house broken to a doggie door. She is small for a Pittie so we call her a "Pocket Pittie" Ruthie needs her forever home, could that be you? She is ready for immediate transport. PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE LOCATED IN TENNESSE AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MEET OUR PETS PRIOR TO ADOPTION! ADOPTION FEE: $400

Meet Chuck!Chuck is an 8+ yr old blind pittie. He is as sweet and happy as they come! He`s just a big ol’ love! You willjust fall in love with him, like we all have at the shelter! He navigates his world really well! He uses a ramp w us and does amazing with it, but could also do a few stairs if he had to. Ideally though, a nice open space wout many stairs would be perfect for him. He loves going on walks and smelling the fresh air when the wind is blowing. He will make the perfect cuddle buddy for fall and winter! Seniors make the most amazing companions, and Chuck will be so grateful to be loved and have a new cozy place to call home!??*Other dogs startle him so he needs to be your one and only pup!

Story
Hunter is a gentle 60-pound Pitbull mix with a heart of gold. This strong boy, about a year old, was found running loose on the back roads of Tennessee, but despite his tough start, he's in great shape with a silky black coat. While no one has come forward to claim him, Hunter is patiently waiting for a loving family to call his own! Hunter enjoys his daily walks and is working on not pulling on the leash. ‍&#226&#153&#130&#239&#184&#143 He’s curious, playful, and loves other dogs! He’s been sharing a pen with a Boxer, though we feed him separately to avoid any food aggression. Hunter does the cutest little dance when it’s time for his meals or walks—it’s sure to put a smile on your face! While he hasn’t been tested with cats or kids yet, Hunter did have a run-in with a neighbor’s chicken , so he might be best suited to a home without small livestock. Critter Cavalry Rescue is a Middle Tennessee-based 501(c)(3) that travels to the Northeast states weekly, helping high-risk homeless animals like Hunter find their forever homes. For more info on our mission, adoption fees, and drop-off points, visit us at CritterCavalry.com! &#226&#156&#168 Are you ready to give this playful boy a chance at a new beginning? &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Email us at ccrnewengland@gmail.com to request an adoption application.  PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.November 4, 2024, 11:48 pm

Story
Meet Tica, a stunning 4-year-old Blue Tri XL Bully with a heart as big as her warm personality! This gentle, 50-pound Pitbull mix has a charming, submissive nature and gets along wonderfully with other dogs and children. While we haven’t seen her around cats, Tica’s calm demeanor suggests she could adjust well with a proper introduction. Tica’s journey to us was a tough one. She was found abandoned and tied to a parked vehicle with a horse lead, without food, water, or shelter. By the time our Animal Control Officer arrived, the lead had tightened painfully around her neck, leaving a fluid-filled knot. Fortunately, her previous owner surrendered her to avoid cruelty charges, and Tica is now safe with Critter Cavalry Animal Rescue. Due to family connections of her former owner, Tica needs a loving forever home outside of her previous home area.  This way  she can enjoy a peaceful, fresh start. Despite her difficult past, Tica’s resilient spirit and gentle heart shine through and she’s ready to bring boundless love and loyalty to her new family. As a Middle Tennessee-based 501(c)(3) animal rescue, Critter Cavalry’s mission is to save high-risk animals like Tica and find them homes throughout Tennessee and the northeastern U.S. We travel north each week, bringing these wonderful pets closer to a new life. For more information about adopting Tica or to learn about our rescue, visit www.CritterCavalry.com or email us at ccrnewengland@gmail.com. Tica’s waiting for the love and kindness she has never known but certainly deserves—could you be her new family? PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.November 11, 2024, 7:28 pm

Story
Hi! My name is... what? My name is... who? My name is... chcka chcka- SLIM SHADY.My government name is Marshall Mathers though. ?? While I don`t drop sick beats or create mad collabs with Dre, I`m still pretty dope. I was found runnin` the mean streets of Lowell all by myself, but when the AC rolled up I jumped in his truck for an opportunity to see better days. The shelters not a bad place, but I think I`d much rather be in a home with a couch I can stretch out on. I like walks, but I can be kind of lazy sometimes and I would just prefer to chill with my people in the air conditioning. Let it be known- I get pretty excited about small animals. I want to chase squirrels, cats and all other small beings (small dogs are pretty interesting to me too). Needless to say- I`m looking to be your one and only pet. I would do best with dog-savvy teens+.I am really excited to find a home! Come meet me and see if we`re a match!Our shelter is open Tuesday-Sunday from 12-4 (closed Mondays). If you are interested in this pet, please review our adoption process at www.lowellhumanesociety.org/adoption/#process so you`re prepared. MARSHALL IS IN A FOSTER HOME! Please connect with a staff member to coordinate a meet and greet with this great boy!

Story
Hello from Austin! He is a 4 year old neutered male XL bully breed, and the cutest one in town! He is a real beefy boy weighing in at 79 pounds, and he uses every bit of it for love! He gets SOOO excited to see his favorite people, it`s a party every time! He is playful and loves tossing toys around, playing fetch, and going on his walks with his people. He can be quite strong when he wants to be, so his adopter will have to be sturdy and confident on their feet. He is excitable and can sometimes have a hard time remembering not everybody enjoys being jumped on by a small hippo.Austin said no thanks to interacting with other dogs, and would be happiest on his own in his new home. We are unsure how he may be with cats, so please speak with staff if you have a dog-savvy cat in your home. Due to his size and excitability, we feel it`s best he goes home with older, sturdy, dog-savvy kiddos. Bring the whole fam by to meet Austin!Our shelter is open Tuesday-Sunday from 12-4 (closed Mondays). If you are interested in this pet, please review our adoption process at www.lowellhumanesociety.org/adoption/#process so you`re prepared to adopt & stop by the shelter with the required information to take home this pet.
