We know it's Giving Tuesday, but all we are asking is that you give a minute of your time and share this munchkins face with your friends.

Pedro is 5 years old and we guess you could describe him as a smaller dude with a little tude 😉. He is currently 24 pounds which is bit too rotund for a French Bulldog, so his adopter is going to have to ignore that "please give me treats" face and help him work towards a healthier weight.

Now for the "tude" part, apparently Pedro decided he was the heir apparent as far as the furniture and the female person in the home were concerned. So he is now looking for a quiet, adult home with a dog savvy person to help him understand boundaries and to help him return to the very good boy he was meant to be.

Like many of this breed, he has a dash of stubborn and a boatload of charm and he will thrive in the right home.

In the meantime he's hanging out with his pals at the Lowell Humane Society, but he of course wants a home of his own, so please share. 💗

Now that Thanksgiving and leftovers day have passed, you can feast your eyes on this calorie free, spectacular senior gentleman. Mr. Wonderful (yes that's his name because that's what he is), is 11 years old and wants his very own family to love!

Mr. W promises to provide endless love, tons of snoring, health support by eating all the snacks and giving you a reason to smile every day for the rest of his life. What could be better than that!

Mr. Easy Peasy would feel most comfortable as the only dog in the home due to those pesky age related things- he is deaf and has limited vision. A home with older kids or just adults, is perfect.

This very good boy has had all the medical stuff- dental, neuter and bloodwork, taken care of and he's ready to go home💕

Sooo let's help him find that home and share away. He is with our friends at Crops and Flops Rescue and he's counting on you!!

We all remember meeting someone who was a little shy, when we were young, right? But once we got to know each other, boy was it fun! Well, that's Penny, a little shy, but so much fun once she's comfortable.

This beauty is just 10 months old, likes other dogs and becomes a little flirt with people she knows. Nothing melts your heart faster than having Penny slowly come up and offer her paw🥰.

She can't wait to meet her new forever family, but Penny does have two requirements- belly rubs and butt scritches .

Because shy dogs need a little extra promotion, please share with your friends. She's with Salem Animal Rescue League in Sale, Nh.

Check out the picture of this stunning girl in the comments, just relaxing and keeping an eye out for a potential new family.

The expression you get when 8 month old Penelope is told that she still doesn't have a place to call home, sweet home.

Penelope was found as a tiny pup fending for herself in a notorious dumping ground for unwanted dogs. Luckily, great humans stepped in to help and she's being the best girl in a local foster home.

She loves carrying her favorite toy everywhere she goes and she's amazing with the kids and dogs in the home.

Penelope would love to be in her very own home for the holidays. Her wish list includes carrots, blueberries, yogurt and maybe another fun dog friend to play with.

She is with Brown Dog Coalition, a foster based rescue in MA.

Check out the comments for some adorable pictures of this little snuggle bug.

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.
