Please share Wyatt! Great pup looking for a home 💕

Name: Wyatt
S*x: Male
Breed: Lab Mix
Age: August 5, 2018
Weight: 60lb
Adoptable in MA and NH

Wyatt is a social, playful boy who comes to us originally from Tennessee! He was found in a barn with his mother, Whitney, and sister, Willow. Wyatt loves people and will be absolutely thrilled to see any of them! He loves to go to the state park for a quick jump in the pond. He is an excellent car rider and will let you fashion him to a seat belt so he can ride in style! Wyatt also loves the vet and will be a star whenever he goes due to his love for anyone he meets. He's a sweet, loving dog!

Wyatt has lived with older children and done well, but may jump on the little ones and any strangers he's excited to see. While Wyatt has resided with other animals, he is looking for a pet-free home at this time, as he holds his toys, home and food near and dear to his heart! Wyatt will thrive in a high-energy home with lots of mental stimulation and things to do. He'll love any chance you give him for exercise, so he's a great running buddy!

Wyatt has been crate-trained and quite enjoys spending time in his little den, and will likely benefit from being crated during times someone cannot be home, as he does tend to have wandering paws when he gets bored! He is completely housebroken. He knows his basic commands of come, sit, stay, paw, other paw, down, and up. He absolutely loves to learn, play, and just generally be a dog! If you're looking for a sweet, loving, high-energy dog, Wyatt would be a great addition to your pet-free home.

Adoptable Jolene! Check her out - please Share.

JOLENE
Name: Jolene
S*x: Female
Breed: Boxer/Pit Mix.
Age: Born August 2018
Weight: 68 lbs
Needs PET FREE home

We believe Jolene is a Boxer and Pit Bull mix. She has a litter of puppies who have all been adopted and now it’s her turn to find her own pet free home as she isn’t a fan of other pets. Jolene is a super sweet snuggler who loves to be near you at all times. In fact, she will literally sleep right on top of you! She's fully potty-trained and will let you know when she needs to go out – her way of saying “I got to go, I got to go” is by stomping her paws.

If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application at survivortails.org or email [email protected] with any questions.

Name: Leo
S*x: Male
Breed: Lab mix
Age: Born November 2018
Dogs/cats: Pet free see bio
Adoptable in MA & NH

My name is Leo. I am a Lab mix who is extremely loyal, playful, and very smart. My favorite things to do is play fetch with the chuck it ball in the yard. I get so fixated on that ball that I could chase it all day. I love to be outside with walks or chasing the ball. I also love squeaky toys, and the lab in me loves the water. At the end of the day I will curl up at your feet, and when inside, I will follow you around the house, and watch tv with you. I do growl every once and a while when I see animals on tv but stop when I hear the command “enough”.

I know some basic commands. Sit, wait, come, down, ball, enough, and go potty. The last command that I have been working on and am very good at now is “place”. When I hear that command, I go into my crate, and wait until things calm down. I am crate trained, and find that to be my safe space when things get hectic. This is where I eat my meals. I am not food aggressive. You can take my bowl away, and I will be fine. I will also let you know when I need to go outside and need to go potty.

When someone I don’t know comes to the house I do bark but I am given the command place, and I go to my crate where I stay until the company is in the house and there is a more relaxed atmosphere.

My previous owner had a 14 month old son, and I was very gentle with him. He would even give me his food, and I would gently take from his hand. Also, I got very close with children who I knew, and was very good with them. Once I get to know you and I feel safe, (treats help, I really love treats) I will follow you around, and am very loving.

I do not do well with reactive/unstable dogs. I do not like cats. I had to leave my previous home because of this. I have been in a few dog fights. I need an owner who commit to my basic training and proper leash training so I focus on you and not be reactive to other dogs. On walks, I am told to sit, then wait as other dogs pass.

I have lived with another dog before for 3 years (beagle mix), and we are fine together. But it took a few times of us being in the same area to get comfortable with each other. I need a slow, controlled introduction to other dogs. We are at this time looking for a pet free home for Leo.

Leo is adoptable in NH & MA Please complete an application to foster or adopt on our website www.survivortails.org as well as email [email protected] with interest or questions.

Name: Rocket
S*x: Male
Breed: Hound mix
Age: 8 yo
Weight: 75 pounds
Needs: Quiet home, with no young children, preferred — teens okay. Rocket can get anxious in very noisy environments causing him to pace and bark.
Cats: unknown
Dogs: Good with most, meet and greet will be required.

Rocket would love nothing more than a quiet home where he can play, take naps and be cuddled. He LOVES being tucked into a blanket on the couch (wrapped up with just his face out, see photos). He enjoys riding in the car. He is treat and food motivated, he’s been fed 2x daily, morning & late afternoon, and at meal time, he will kindly remind you by laying by his dish expectantly. He enjoys laying in the sun when its warm, he dislikes the rain and getting wet, he would rather hold his p*e all day. Like many dogs, he is afraid of thunder/fireworks. He is completely house trained and will pace by the door when he needs to go. You will be alerted to any delivery trucks arriving, they are scary! On walks he has been known to lunge at large trucks and can sometimes bark at other dogs. We recommend having treats at the ready and turning his back away from these triggers, have him sit (with a tight, short hold on his leash) keep his attention as they pass. For this reason we also suggest walking trails, or if on the road, less busy times of the day. Rocket has attended daycare without issues and that is where he has been groomed, nails cut etc. He does best with treats during nail trims. (not a fan of the dremel tool) He loves chewing nyla bones.

Thank you for taking him in 🫶🏼

When I bought this house, I didn’t expect it to come with… a cat. 🐾 The very first day, he darted inside like he belonged here. At first, I thought he was just a curious neighborhood cat, but soon I learned from the neighbors that he used to live here with the elderly woman before me. Since then, he’s been cared for outside, but never allowed back in.

For the first few days, he camped out in my garden, sleeping in the sun and quietly trying to sneak his way indoors. Then, when I finally opened the door for him, he ran straight to the master bedroom, curled up, and purred for ten whole minutes. 😿💞 It felt like he was saying, “I’m home.”

I guess it’s official now — this house didn’t just come with walls and a roof. It came with a heart, four paws, and the loudest purrs. 🏡😻

📍CT - Gracie is the frosted face angel 😇 that you didn’t know you needed—but you do!!

Gracie is a very senior gal and she’s just calm and gentle and oh, so loving 🥹❤️

She was surrendered by get family to BARC recently, at age 12. Heartbroken but resilient, Gracie did fantastic at her vet appointment this week. She’s spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and healthy for her age!

Housebroken

Takes treats gently

Good listener

Gracie would do great in a home with someone who’s home more often than not. No kids please.

Perfect companion for someone with a low-key lifestyle!

🐕 She’s great with other dogs (senior or very calm dogs would be best)

🐈 Cats unknown but likely fine!

Gracie would love a home *without many stairs 🔆

Please apply, the one photo does not do her any justice. She is so sweet and SHE WAS THE STAFF FAVORITE at the vet!! ❤️❤️❤️

“Adopting a senior dog will change your life”

*Gracie is low or no fee for the right person

**IMMEDIATE FOSTER NEEDED****

Age: 6.5 years old
Breed: Mixed - maybe boxer and hound?
Weight: 56.2 lbs
Good with: Some dogs; humans (no kids or 13+ only)

Zuki, short for “Zucchini,” was originally found in TN, not far from two other puppies who looked like her that had been shot. We never knew if she was related to those two other pups thar never made it into rescue. 😞 This sweet girl is a beautiful companion dog who is being returned to our rescue after six years, through no fault of her own and now needs immediate placement in a new adoptive home or foster family.

She has been in a loving family home for the last 6 years, however we've determined a home with small children is not the ideal setting to meet her needs. Zuki often waits until everyone goes to bed to settle into her bed. She enjoys curling up on a rug to have a nice nap after playing outside or just hanging out with her people. She will lay down where you're working to keep you company. She loves going on walks or hikes on trails and smiles the most when she's outdoors getting exercise. Zuki does well on car rides (no issues with car sickness) and has been great on family trips to New Hampshire.

She is happy to play with other dogs, however she does best when she can meet them in an outdoor setting off leash to get to know them. She can be nervous around smaller dogs.

Zuki is smart and knows basic commands like sit, wait, come, or"up up" to jump onto the end of the bed or to jump into the back of a car. She is food motivated, so definitely appreciates treats as rewards. Zuki loves to play games like "find it", where you hide treats around the house or in the yard and she can sniff them out.

Zuki gets nervous having her nails trimmed, does best when done by a professional (and with a Dremel). As a puppy, Zuki was skittish and barked when she got nervous, however while she still barks at large trucks (like trash trucks because of their high pitched brakes), she has become calmer with age and is an ideal companion for an adult household. She loves long walks and getting exercise which calms her down when she is nervous.

Zuki’s ideal home would be child-free with a single person or couple who enjoys hiking and the outdoors and can provide regular exercises and enrichment. She can be in a home with another dog of a similar size for company and should meet that dog to ensure a good fit first.

If interested in fostering or adopting, please complete an application on our website www.survivortails.org and email us at [email protected]. We are a licensed 501c rescue organization. Zuki is adoptable to MA and NH only.
