Miles is a small, 8 year old, handsome dog at 18 pounds. He is neutered. Miles was adopted in July, but a change in the couple's situation is causing him to come back. They say "he is a total joy" and this is not his fault. He's laid back and easy-going, always looks like he's 'smiling'. He will pretty much ignore cats, but if they run he will give chase. He won't bark at them. Adult home is best as he was not raised with children. A retiree who wants a pal would be perfect for him. He loves his walks and doesn't pull.
Applications, not email inquiries, will receive a response. Please apply at http://www.saveadog.org/applytoadopt.asp and please read the requirements. More info on Miles from his adopters: Miles is a total sweetheart. His favorite things in the world are lounging on the couch, having his belly rubbed, and going for nice long walks where he gets to sniff everything. Although he's about 8 years old, he has a lot of energy on his walks and will keep going for a good long while if you're up for it. He's a very fast walker, too, and responsive to your direction using the leash -- doesn't pull much and is usually happy to move on if you ask him to. He's not scared of traffic unless a particularly loud truck goes by and makes him jump. At home he's very calm and mostly wants to hang out near you -- on the couch, if at all possible -- and have his belly rubbed. He makes the funniest little grunting noises while you rub his belly to tell you he's enjoying it. And he has the cutest little face -- he even "smiles" when he's happy!
He is perfectly housetrained, no accidents whatsoever and he asks to go out when he needs to. He has not been at all destructive of anything in the house and I wouldn't have any concerns about leaving him home alone outside of his crate. If he wants to chew on something, he goes straight for his toys, but mostly he likes to chill out on the couch.
Miles is a smart boy and very trainable. He already knows a lot of commands: sit, lay down, leave it, roll over, play dead, shake, and high five are the ones we've discovered so far. He also picks up very quickly what you want from him and is eager to please. For example, within a day or so he had figured out that we want him to roll over so we can wipe his paws when he comes in from a walk, and now he does it without even being asked. Praise and affection are bigger motivators for him than food in general, though he does like his treats.

Aro is an 8 month old Pom mix who weighs 16#s. He is playful but very calm and well behaved in the house, he sleeps all night in his crate. Aro is not fully house trained but he is a smart little dog so should learn rather quickly. He enjoys being with people, playing with other dogs, is good with cats and children. He is content to just hang out with the family. He was fostered on a farm with several other other puppies, dogs, cats, free ranging guinea fowl and horses. Aro is a delightful fun little companion and anyone will fall in love with his personality. He loves to run through the sprinkler.
A stay-at-home or work-from-home is a must and he is too tiny for kids. Adult home preferred but not a lot of roommates. Pups need stability and a forever home. Because only 1 in 5 pups stay in their forever home we are very careful about placement. He weighs 15# and is 8 months old.
Lenny is an 18 lb small mixed breed dog who is at Save A Dog. He came up in an RV and likes to ride shot gun or to run up and down the aisles playing fetch. What's not to love about this little guy? He's a little dog with a BIG personality. He's curious about everything and will be a lot of fun to take hiking or swimming or just throwing a ball in the back yard. He'll be available around or after 8/22/17. Please apply asap.
Hi, my name is Rambo! I am around 1.5 to 2 years old and weigh in at 82 pounds. I'm from Georgia where I lived with a family but they gave me up because they did not have time for me. However, they did say that I am good with kids and dogs, and am house trained. At the shelter I've been fearful of men, but more of a ladies' man. I brighten when I see kids. I'm not so great meeting other dogs on leash so that hasn't gone well, but I came in with another dog when I was turned in. Someone just needs to give me a chance. I'm easy going and not destructive. I'm house trained too. I love to go for walks, play ball and then cool off in the water. Even though I do like to play I am still a big cuddle bug who just wants some love. I was adopted for a few days but was returned because I was afraid of the men in the house. I'm being boarded in Northboro and can meet you by private appointment.
Jake is a one year old male, Great Pyrenees who needs a home. He weighs 122 lbs and wants to play with other dogs, but needs the appropriate playmates. Breed experience is a must for this big boy.

Hi, my name is Hermione! Harry, Ron and I all came from a bad hoarding situation in MA. There were so many dogs where I was that I never really got any human attention, but now that I'm in a foster home I've blossomed. I'm completely house trained and crate trained, although might have a set back in a new home. I need a fenced in yard as I will not go to the bathroom while on leash. I'm the bravest of my siblings and I come up to people wagging my tail and sniffing curiously. I think teens and up would be best for me because quick movements and loud noises sometimes still scare me. Another dog would be ideal as I can learn from a more confident dog. If you think you can provide the right home for me please fill out an online application and come visit me! I'm adorable.
Hi everybody! My name is Max, and I'm a chihuahua, which means I am very cute and small (7.2 pounds to be exact!) I'm a neutered male and was surrendered because my owner didn't have enough time to take care of me. I love to play tug with other dogs. I am rough and tumble so am a better match for a robust dog than a senior. I love to steal another dog's treats. I'm quite the character, am too rough for small children as I will tug at your clothes when you're trying to get dressed. I will chase cats if they run. I'm a sweetheart, shy at first but then just excited to be with my people, so give me a chance and apply online to adopt me! I love to hang out in your arms and check out everything around me.

Meet Charlie, the sweetest dog on earth! He is 10 years young. You would never know he was a senior. He's young and vibrant, but recovering from skin issues as a result of a poor diet. He's clearing up on grain free venison diet. He is on prescription meds that we think he should be weaned off of. We have him on homeopathic remedies, supplements, and B vitamins. Adopter must be willing to follow a holistic protocol so that Charlie can bring you many more years of joy. He needs a stay at home, not someone gone all day, especially as he needs some TLC at this point in his life. He won't disappoint as he has a sweet personality. Please apply online and we will be in touch as he is in a foster home and not at the shelter. Charlie is good with dogs and sweet with children, but was not raised with them so visiting children are best. Our vet did extensive blood work to determine the cause of the skin problem, so we need help with his expenses too.
Hi there, my name is Alyza and I'm a 5 year old spayed friendly girl. I am gentle with babies, toddlers, and dogs. I lived with five children at one time, from infants to eight years old. My family used to prop the baby on me as a pillow. I share my space and my bed readily with other dogs. I grew up with a small dog and am being fostered with 3 other dogs. If you think you can adopt me, I will be your best friend for life! I know sit, stay, and paw and I understand just about everything you tell me. I'm obsessed with tennis balls, but I also destroy them so sometimes you have to hide them from me. I'm house trained. I sleep in my crate at night and I don't chew anything in your house during the day. I can get excited, but I also know how to "chill". I weigh around 50 lbs. Nothing makes me happier than being with my people and chewing on a bone or a tennis ball. Please apply online at http://www.saveadog.org/applytoadopt.asp so that I can meet you. Since I am in a foster home, please call to arrange to meet me after we get your application.
Hi there, my name is Harry! I come from a bad hoarding situation in MA. Due to this I have had very little contact with people. I am very frightened but I am still very kind. I haven't growled or snapped at people once. I might shake a little but I am learning to enjoy pats and belly rubs. I would enjoy going to a home with another dog and a fenced yard. It is not a must, but this dog would help teach me how to socialize with people. I would also do best with teens and up as younger children will not be experienced enough for me. If you think you would be a good match for me please fill out an online application and come meet me!

Lyle is a 50 pound male yellow Lab/Husky mix who is around 8-9 months old. Lyle is from farm country where he didn't interact with many people so he is shy. That being said he doesn't have an aggressive bone in his body. Lyle is currently in a foster home and is doing great. He has lots of playmates there that teach him how to interact with people and gain confidence. A requirement we have for Lyle is a securely fenced in yard (physical, not electric). He is doing so well and we hope someone will come along soon to give this beautiful boy the love and attention he so deserves. If you think you are the one for Lyle please fill out and online application at saveadog.org. An email or phone call also wouldn't hurt as we will have to set up a private appointment for him due to the fact that he is in foster.
