    Looking for dogs for adoption.

    Figured I'd check here too. My fiance and I are looking for another dog. We are seeing whats out there for adoption instead of buying a puppy, we hate mills and puppies are great, but there may be a dog out there we can save instead. We have our own home with a huge backyard lots of room. We currently have a 5 year old female, so we are looking for a boy, and we are in Worcester county. Feel free to pm or post any links if any of you have any suggestions, friends, or other dogs you may know of. Thanks!

    Thanks, we have checked that out too, just want to see if anyone here has anything. Lots of the dogs on that site have some very expensive adoption fees.

    You can borrow mine until you find something suitable.

    Looks like a good dog, we'll take him, but do we have to give him back?

    Yes, I'm going to need him back. Too much love and time invested.



    I could steal one of my neighbor's dogs for you.....or one of the hens.


    In all seriousness, check the SPCA too. Maybe check other areas well outside of yours or perhaps look into adopting a NEADS dog. My grandfather picked up a black lab that failed the NEADS test for an apparent limp that no one else seems to be able to see.

    I got my dope here.

    http://www.baypathhumane.org/index.php

    Started like this...


    Went to this...


    Now one of these


    Its 320 for a puppy but its fixed, has all vaccines, a microchip and a collar. Its probably more expensive to go through all that by yourself.

    Got my pup here http://www.worcester-arl.org/

    Reasonable fees IMO which include all the usuals and a free checkup with your local VCA...

    We just saved an American Bulldog from this place. http://www.poainc.org/

    They were really cool to deal with. They are all volunteers. Check them out if you get a chance.
