🐾 Adopt Harris and His Teddy Bear! 🐾

Our sweet Harris, the 11-month-old German Shepherd, is still looking for his furever home—and he’s bringing his favorite teddy bear along for the ride! This one-of-a-kind pup is the ultimate sidekick, always ready for fun, adventure, and plenty of snuggles with his teddy. Whether it’s keeping an eye on the cats, walking with your other dogs, or playing with the kids, Harris is the perfect companion, full of love and boundless energy.

Harris has faced challenges but remains hopeful, greeting each day with a wagging tail and his trusty teddy bear by his side. He’s up-to-date on vaccines and ready for a new start. If you’re ready to welcome Harris and his teddy bear into your home, submit your adoption application at pawsfromafar.org. 🐶❤️

Hey friends! Sorry for the silence lately – but that's a story for another time! We're thrilled to announce the launch of our new blog. Our first post tackles the tough issue of overcrowded shelters and the heartbreaking decisions that come with it. It's a topic that needs attention, and we hope you'll join us in raising awareness. 🌟🐾 https://www.pawsfromafar.org/blog

07/12/2024

We are excited to officially announce that we are leading a coalition of six local animal welfare organizations: ourselves, Worcester Animal Rescue League, City of Boston Animal Care and Control, Berkshire Humane Society, Thomas J. O'Connor Animal Control and Adoption Center, and Dakin Humane Society. Our goal is to increase adoptions, reduce euthanasia, and improve the wellbeing of shelter animals in Massachusetts.

We will work together to deal with issues that were caused by the pandemic, including a huge increase in the number of dogs entering shelters, and staying there longer. Many of these dogs are in need of more behavior and medical support than before.

Given that recruiting qualified behavior personnel is just as hard as recruiting veterinary staff, most shelters aren't able to address this challenge alone, and, without that help, it may not be possible to rehome the animals.

As part of the coalition, we'll establish a behavior outreach role to work directly with animals at other shelters while helping coalition members learn remedies they'll be able to use on their own. We're also zeroing in on issues that are unique to specific parts of MA.

The coalition's first official act will be a group-wide, fee-waived adoption event for all dogs aged one and up! It will begin 7/15 and run through 7/21. Hours will vary by location and all of the City of Boston Animal Control's dogs will be adopted through MSPCA shelters. Visit mspca.org/dogs for more information!

Welcome 2 year old Skylar to Paws From Afar This baby was pulled from BARC Animal Shelter & Adoptions one day prior to her being euthanized because she has mange and is scared. We have an amazing foster in Houston taking care of her. She is shut down, needs lots of medicated baths and time to sleep.

Proof you can rescue any breed. We want to help all these vulnerable babies. Please

🌟 Meet Addie & Harris: Two Courageous Hearts Looking for Forever Homes 🌟

✨ **Addie's Journey of Healing and Hope** ✨
At just 15 months old, Addie, a beautiful German Shepherd mix, has shown more bravery than many of us could imagine. Rescued from a dire situation, Addie survived an unthinkable act of cruelty that left her with a "cracked leg." But her spirit remains unbroken, thanks to a kind-hearted Samaritan who stepped in to save her. Currently recovering and regaining her strength with us, Addie is a testament to resilience and love. In four weeks, she'll be ready to bring joy and unconditional love to her new family. Despite her past, we believe there are no long-term shadows that will dim her bright future. If you're ready to open your heart and home to a soul that embodies strength and the capacity to overcome, Addie awaits.

🐾 **Harris: A Last-Minute Miracle with a Tail Wag** 🐾
Harris's story is one of a miraculous reprieve and the joy of a second chance. An 8-month-old German Shepherd puppy, Harris was moments away from an undeserved fate when he was rescued from the euthanasia room. Found as a stray, this gentle soul approached his rescuer with a wagging tail, squinty eyes, and all the hope in the world. Despite initial fears and uncertainties, Harris's willingness to trust and love again is nothing short of inspiring. He's a young pup who's ready to learn what it means to be part of a loving family, to play, and to live the life he so narrowly missed. Harris is looking for a home where patience and tenderness will guide him out of his shell and into the heart of a forever family.

🏡 **Your Chance to Make a Difference** 🏡
In opening your home to Addie or Harris, you're not just adopting a pet; you're saving a life and gaining a loyal friend. Both of these incredible dogs have faced unimaginable challenges, yet their capacity for love remains untouched. They're ready to fill your life with joy, laughter, and the kind of companionship that only a grateful rescued dog can offer.

Are you the missing piece in Addie or Harris's life? Let's write the next chapter of their stories together—a chapter filled with love, security, and endless adventures. Contact us to learn more about adopting Addie or Harris. Your best friend awaits. 🐕❤️

What We Do

Paws from Afar is a non-profit community of volunteers dedicated to finding forever homes for animals in need of adoption. We encourage animal lovers who are unable to personally foster an animal to become virtual 'fosters from afar.' We pair "foster" volunteers with animals in need of adoption to create additional social networks to facilitate and expedite adoptions.
