Story
URGENT need for adopter!! This is Leo , he’s a 3yr old cattle ( March 12th bday ). He loves playing with balls, tug of war, and enjoying treats, especially meat. Outdoors, he enjoys trips to the park and beach, though he's still learning to swim. Leo can be cautious around certain dogs, children, teens, and strangers, but with time and patience, he opens up. He needs training, love, and an active lifestyle. Leo thrives in a home where he receives attention, structure, and affection. If you're ready to invest time in him, Leo will bring joy and loyalty into your life. My family could be facing legal issues regarding the health of our youngest if we continue to keep him. We all love him very much and wish he could stay but this is our best options vs a shelter.

Adoptable in: MA Good with dogs: YesGood with cats: NoGood with kids: YesCrate trained: YesHouse trained: YesPep is a chill, go-with-the-flow kind of guy who’s ready to go on your next adventure! Pep would likely do well in nearly any home ready to give him all the love.He is a low to medium energy pup who loves to stroll around the pond or hop in the car but is perfectly content to chill on the couch nearby. Pep gets along well with other pups and would do just fine with a canine sibling. He has interacted well and is respectful of cat boundaries in his current foster home, but has shown too much interest in new cats in new evironments, so he would most likely do best without a cat in the home. His gentle disposition would likely do fine with kids in the home.Pep is smart and eager to please. He is crate trained and potty-trained. He is crated occasionally during the day and overnight without any issues. He is working on his leash manners and loves to explore the world with his nose, so he would benefit from an owner excited to continue his training as he navigates his new environment.Pep is an all-around great pup with an easy-going temperament - are you ready to call him family?*Pep is part of our Medical Foster-to-Adopt Program as he is on prescription food. If you're interested in learning more, we will connect you with our Medical Team to explain the process!Please Note: All dogs currently available for adoption are posted on our website. If you cannot find a particular dog on our website, he/she may be on a temporary foster hold. All dogs are otherwise posted until they are officially adopted.

Story
Hi, my name is Boone and I am a quiet, goofy, and athletic boy! I am almost 2 years old and 36 lbs of love. I love car rides, long walks, pup cups, and playing with doggy friends. I was rescued from Texas 10 months ago and am so happy to be living in Massachusetts because I love pooping in leaves in fall and playing in the snow in winter! My moms say I'm the bestest and sweetest boy, but I'm too intense with my kitty brothers. It's not my fault they're so fun to mess with! I am fully house-trained and know to ring bells when I need to go out. I don't like the crate except for bedtime as long as I'm in the same room as my humans. I am a shy, sensitive boy and will need to go slow with new people. The best home for me would have a fenced-in yard and include a playful doggy sibling, or two, or maybe even more! I love to play, wrestle, and run around with my dog friends at daycare and at my grandma's house. I hope you can consider being my forever home!

Australian Cattle Dog

Male, 1 yr 6 mos
Salem, MA

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Draco, a gentle and sensitive pup who’s looking for a calm, loving home where he can feel safe and secure. Draco is a bit shy and can get easily overwhelmed in new environments, so he’ll need a family that understands his need for a slow, quiet transition. New people can be intimidating for him, so a small, close-knit circle of people will be important while he is transitioning. Draco loves other dogs and would thrive with a playful, confident companion who can help him feel more at ease. If you`re looking for a sweet, shy dog who will blossom in a peaceful, patient home, Draco could be the perfect fit!

Story
I'm Vegas, an 8-month-old Lab mix with a naturally bobbed tail. I came up from the South with my littermates; our mother was a Lab, and I might have English Bulldog in my mix, as I have the markings and tail of the OEB. I'm doing great in my foster home -- I'm housetrained and very smart and attentive. My foster mom says I'm a delight in the home because I'm very well behaved, I settle easily, and I am so affectionate! I've also started attending playdates, and I'm excellent with other dogs: I'm so excited to meet new friends, and I take cues and corrections from older dogs well. Doggy Dates, the company that runs the playdates said, "Vegas was observed to have a great temperament and disposition, and he did well within the group setting. All social interactions with the other dogs were friendly and appropriate. We'd love to have him in on the fun!"

Story
I’m Vibe, an 8-month-old Lab mix who came to Save A Dog with my littermates. My mother was a Lab, and I have speckles like an Aussie. I love to run and play; I enjoy outdoor adventures but have also done well in my foster home, which was more low-key. I'm crate trained and house trained, and I ride well in the car. I'm very people-focused, and when some Boy Scouts visited, I loved interacting with them and was very gentle taking treats. I'm taking some puppy classes right now, and I already know "sit" and "down" and am working on "place"! I'm smart and learn quickly.
