These adorable 2½-month-old sisters are looking for a forever home together. They love curling up, playing together, and taking on the world as a pair.

Watching them grow up side by side is something truly special, and we’d love to see them stay together as they begin this next chapter.

Could your home be the one they’ve been waiting for?

🌟 Our TV stars! 🌟

Bonnie and Buck had their moment in the spotlight this weekend during the WBZ/CBS Boston Pet Parade and we think they absolutely stole the show! ❤️🐾

These two wonderful pups were joined by our trainer and behaviorist, Corey Steinberg, along with two of our incredible volunteers, who helped showcase just how amazing shelter dogs can be.

A huge thank you to WBZ News | CBS News Boston for shining a light on shelter pets and to Corey and our volunteers for giving Bonnie and Buck this wonderful opportunity.

Now all these two need is a forever family to call their own.

Second Chance Update: Millie (formerly Pencil)! ❤️

It’s been a little over a year since Millie (or Millicent if she’s misbehaving!) was adopted, and she’s been keeping her family on their toes ever since.

Millie is a bundle of energy and one of the smartest cats they’ve ever had. She knows quite a few tricks and commands, including sit, boop (touching her nose to theirs), high-five, “hop in!” (jumping into her carrier), and “mat,” where she goes to her mat and patiently waits for brushing, treats, and even medications. She’s incredibly eager and quick to learn new things.

She’s also obsessed with water, and her family finds one or more toys in her water dish almost every day. She’s been known to run around the house growling with multiple toys in her mouth and has apparently won gold in parkour (thank goodness for pet window screens!).

When she’s not making everyone laugh, Millie loves watching the birds and squirrels from a sunny window and spending time with her people.

Her family says it best:
“We couldn’t imagine life without Millie, chaos and all!” ❤️

Thank you for giving this special girl the loving home she deserves! 🐾

Meet Nora!

Nora came to us with two kittens, who are now ready to be adopted, and so is she! She was an excellent mother, but she is not too sure about her new accommodations here at the Shelter. She will take some patience to help her come out of her shell!

Meet Sienna! 🐕

Sienna is the kind of dog who just needs someone willing to go at her pace.

This beautiful one-year-old girl came to us from Puerto Rico and is back at the shelter through no fault of her own. She’s shy when meeting new people and in unfamiliar situations, but once she trusts you, her bond is deep and incredibly rewarding.

Sienna also loves other dogs, so she’d enjoy having a confident canine companion or simply a quiet home with someone who understands that the best relationships take time to grow.

If you believe the sweetest victories are earned with patience, Sienna just might be the perfect match for you.

Meet Junior Mint!

Junior Mint came to us when his elderly owner could no longer care for him. He is a playful fellow, despite being a little overweight and 8 years old. He likes to play fetch and is also content playing with his toys all by himself.

He has an eye condition called KCS (or "dry eye") that will require eye drops for the remainder of his life. The drops cost about $50/month.

Junior Mint has never lived with other animals, but did well in his dog introduction here at the shelter.
He would likely do OK in a home with older children and other animals, but would also be happy to be your one and only!

Junior Mint will need regular visits to the groomer to keep his coat in top condition.

Please email [email protected] if you are interested in adopting Junior Mint!

Meet Penny!

Penny is a reserved gal, who tends to stay in her bed. She allows pets, but hasn't been seeking them out here at the shelter. We think Penny would do best in a quiet home without other pets.

Please email us at [email protected] if you are interested in adopting Penny!
