WE ARE ACCEPTING ADOPTION APPLICATIONS right now but will not be placing a dog in a New Home until after the holidays. This is a stressful time to change the home and environment for a rescue dog. Lots of new people, they are not sure of your routine and how to let you know they need to go out so accidents can happen. Dogs need a couple of weeks to settle in before being overwhelmed by strangers. You are still strangers to them as well.
It is also a busy time for the foster homes as they prepare for the holidays for their families. We may or may not be able to do your home visit until after the holidays but you can start the process by sending in the application.
Happy Holidays and stay safe.
BECAUSE OF THE COVID-19 VIRUS WE ARE ASKING YOU TO WEAR A MASK AND OUR VOLUNTEERS TO WEAR A MASK FOR HOME VISITS . ALSO, WHEN YOU GO TO THE FOSTER HOME(S) TO MEET THE DOG(S).
Please go to our website if you are interested in one of our dogs. It explains the process and has an application you can fill out there.
We are accepting Surrenders but ,because of COVID-19 , we are asking you and our volunteers wear a mask when they come meet the dog. All surrender information is CONFIDENTIAL.
All our dogs are in foster care. We do not have a Kennel in Lee, Mass that you can visit.
For EMERGENCIES please call 877-528-0637. Leave a message regarding what the emergency is and a phone number. Speak your name and number slowly.
