We need help increasing the shares on our recent posts to help find potential adopters for the dogs on our page. Shelters are full, rescues having waiting list and we can all try to help in some way💕.

7 years experience being the best girl! And she's perfected that smile. Xena biggest wish is to be adopted soon so she shower her family with love.

This lovely gal still likes to play and is very affectionate. Xena also enjoys the company of calm dog friends. A quieter home where she can relax, go for walks and snuggle sounds like perfection to her. Older, respectful kids would be fine with this sweetheart.

Xena is waiting at Baypath Humane in Hopkinton, MA to meet you.

This little guy is ready to complete your family! Sam is just 2 years old and weighs a perfect 19 pounds and is as sweet as can be.

Sam came from an overcrowded situation and did not have much opportunity to experience the outside world. So he is a shy, sensitive boy that is looking for a quieter home with an understanding adopter that will help him continue building his confidence.

He would be most comfortable with a female as the primary caretaker 🙂. Sam can join a home with another calm dog and teens that understand he needs to go at his own pace to settle in. He very much enjoys the comfort of being close to you, once he knows you.

This good boy needs a little extra help letting people know he's available, so the right potential adopter can see him. Please help by hitting the share button. He is with Brown Dog Coalition and he's waiting for you 💕.

Now this big Bear is definitely a safe one to snuggle with. Mr Handsome is 5 years old and weighs 85 lbs.

He loves to entertain himself tossing or pushing balls around. Bear would love to show off his skills when it comes to sit, paw and wait!! He was a very good boy with the younger kids in his previous home.

Bear says no cats or small dogs please and can be selective with dogs his size, depending on their style of play and energy level.

Shepherd people will adore this big guy, so spread the word that he needs a new home so he can start his happy ever after. He's waiting at the Salem Animal Rescue League in NH and he wants out of shelter life and in to a home of his own.

Look at this face! Meatball knows all too well the sacrifices those who serve our country make. When his beloved military dad was deployed to the Middle East, he made the decision to have this good boy find a new home. So let's help this happen sooner than later, so he can settle into his permanent home.

Meatball is 3 years old and is 88 pounds of mushy love. Potential adopters must want a snuggler because that's tops on the list for him, that also means sharing the bed at night 😉. He loves car rides, perfectly house trained and although he enjoys a bit of play time, his preference may be to be a bit on the "lazy" side (sounds perfect to us). Oh and those beautiful big ole jowls of his does mean some left over water on the floor after a drink and some shared slobber so....

Meatball is a strong guy who will need someone that can handle him on walks as he learns better leash manners. He enjoys other dogs, no kitties please and has no history of living with kids.

So if you know someone who needs a big lap dog, that also likes to give sloppy kisses, makes you laugh and who promises to adore you all day, every day, please tell them all about Meatball. He's with Crops and Flops Rescue, in a fabulous foster home and they can give you all the information you need to adopt him.

Say good morning to Maverick, self proclaimed 90 pound lap dog and goofball extraordinaire!

This very good boy is 2 years old, loves his walks and has the game of fetch down to a science (video in his bio). He love, love, loves people and has been working on keeping those 4 happy feet of his on the floor when he says "hello, I love you already!". He is also good with dogs and because of his size, older kids.

Maverick has been known to roll off the bed and walk into something in front of him because he's busy looking behind him - just like a silly kid😆.

He is hanging out with his pals at PittieLove Rescue, Inc., but has his bag packed and ready to go to his forever home, as soon as someone picks him. More pictures in the comments.

Jill has definitely waited long enough and now it's her turn to find a family of her own. A gal can only be so patient staying at a shelter before she starts to feel a bit sad.

This good girl has done everything right, she wiggles and waggles hello to everyone she meets, has shown how smart she is with all her tricks and even lets people rub her belly. Jill loves car rides, adores squeaky toys and after a walk, she's happy to relax. She's had 6 1/2 years of experience being the best girl and she'd love to show her new family how sweet she is, if someone would just pick her.

Jill is at the Baypath Humane Society in Hopkinton, Ma and would love to meet you. Check out the comments for pictures of her TV debut on Furever Friday where everyone fell in love with her.

Once again, poor Lacy is in need of a new foster home or better yet, an adoptive home. This little lady just can't catch a break 🙁.

Lacy is a well behaved 3 year old lovebug that is totally on board with cat friends and older dog savvy kids. Humans are her absolute favorites, but she does want to be the only dog.

She loves a good game of fetch, in fact she loves it a lot 😉. As you can see from her picture, stuffies are awesome, snuggles on the couch are even better and don't get us started on her love for treats.

Lacy needs the adoption fairies to sprinkle their glitter on her and help her find her forever home. She is with Brown Dog Coalition.

Oh boy, this handsome guy deserves ALL the love and happiness in the world. Dallas has a back story that will move you to tears, but here he is being brave and waiting for his very own loving home.

Dallas is 7 years old and a complete sweetheart. He is still working on gaining the weight back that he lost while on the run for 42 days. And before that occurred, he unfortunately learned that not all humans are kind 😢.

But Dallas did have a wonderful group of people that were absolutely determined to bring this good boy to safety and find him a loving home. And we thank each and every one of those earth angels!!

For his complete story, please click on cropsandflopsrescue.com.

Dallas is looking for a quiet home with patient people that are ready to share their hearts and probably their bed with him because he's turning into quite the snuggle king. He loves being with his canine buddies, is house and crate trained and is a true gentleman through and through. Older kids or an adult only home will make him most comfortable.

Please show Dallas that there are so many more good people than not so good and help him find a home.

Thank you to Crops and Flops Rescue for doing what you do best- loving all the dogs 💗

More than 121 days and over 2,920 hours of waiting and waiting to be adopted, for these two young gals. They are now 7 months old and sadly growing up in the shelter. Heartbreaking to say the least.

Patty (L) and Patricia are looking for a home together, with a stable adult dog that will help them gain the confidence they need to mature into the best girls. They are super sweet once they've had time to get to know you, but understandably that will take a bit of time.

These beautiful girls are thought to be vizsla mixes and the families of their long adopted littermates say they are all wonderful pups!

We haven't had too much success with people sharing their posts and we'd really like to get the word out to as many people as possible to help them find a home, quickly!

Please take a moment tell your friends about Patty and Patricia at Salem Animal Rescue League in Salem, NH.

Well, when we spied with our little eye this sugar frosted queen, we knew we had to spread the word so everyone gets to enjoy Grace! 😍😍🥰

Grace is 12 years old and found herself in need of a new home after her beloved person passed away. She is now waiting for a quiet adult home where she will pitter patter her way into their hearts for the rest of her life.

Need a weighted blanket to help you feel safe and warm- pick Grace. Need a sweet soul to remind you to slow down and just enjoy life- pick Grace. Want to welcome the best senior girl into your home- get that application in!!!

Grace has been coexisting peacefully with her mellow foster dog buddies, she just requests that she have her own space will dining-easy peasy. Oh, did we mention she's totally deaf??? That means no barking at noises and all that jazz 🙂.

She's hanging out with her pals from Paws New England and she's ready to meet you.

We are excited to share two special adoption updates!

Sweet Casidy was experiencing extreme separation anxiety after a few unfortunate situations and could not be left for even five minutes. This of course, made it very difficult to find the right home environment and someone with the dedication to help her feel secure. Then the magic happened and her special person adopted her and she is doing so well and is very loved.

Little Chief had been waiting for a very long time without much interest. But look at those happy faces of his adopters and now he has a wonderful family to call his own.

This is why sharing is so important 💗💗
And this is why rescues do what they do 💗

Big thanks to Brown Dog Coalition for working so hard to find these dogs their happy ever after. We appreciate them and all the rescues, foster families and shelters that work so hard on behalf of these dogs.
