Meet Mama! Our longest resident! Mama is a former stray/semi feral cat that we have known for roughly 10 years!! She was a former colony cat at one of our feeding stations in Dorchester where we fed daily. Mama is called Mama because when we first came across her she had a tiny black kitten that followed her everywhere she went. Her kitten was taken in by the Animal Rescue League of Boston back in 2012 and found a home then. In April of 2017 we realized Mama was drastically losing weight, despite having a ravenous appetite. We took her in and sure enough she is diabetic. Since then her diabetes has been regulated and she is on insulin injections twice daily. She has adjusted to life indoors well but doesn't enjoy the company of dogs and most cats. She is spayed, microchipped, vaccinated felv/fiv negative and estimated to be roughly 10 years old, a young senior. Mama has been in our rescue for over 2 YEARS and has made tremendous strides. She allows a lot of handling which is required to give her insulin injections twice daily. She would still prefer to be an only pet but has shared her space successfully in the past with a calm foster cat. If you are interested in adopting Mama please fill out an application.

Meet Kingston! Kingston is a 2 year old 100 lb Cane Corso/shepherd mix that entered our rescue from an over crowded city shelter in the fall of 2019. Kingston was initially treated for heart worm and still has insatiable thirst from prednisone treatment. He entered the rescue underweight and was likely a former backyard dog just based on his mannerisms and behaviors.  Kingston has a very playful temperament but he's a big boy, prone to guarding and he spooks easy.  He is not be suitable to live with small children.  Kingston walks well on a leash and knows basic commands. He is food motivated and has good recall. Kingston is dog friendly but likely will attempt to rough house rougher than most dog's comfort. Kingston is a high caliber dog, he's rough around the edges and is not suitable for an inexperienced owner/handler or even the average dog owner. His ideal home is without children or cats and with another dog or two and an experienced/ savvy owner. If you currently have a dog and are interested in adopting Kingston a fenced yard is required for him to live comfortably in a multi-dog household. Kingston is up to date on vaccines, neutered, microchipped, and crate trained. If you are interested in meeting and potentially adopting Kingston please fill out an application.

Meet Teddy! Teddy arrived here in Mid October and we are still taking the time to get to know him. Teddy is a medium 1-2 year old 40 lb shepherd mix that was previously removed from a hoarding situation. His future home would require a fenced in yard and another dog that would be a suitable playmate/companion for him. Teddy requires a home without children, preferably a home without children that visit often. Teddy is crate trained, dog friendly/social, up to date on vaccines, neutered and microchipped. He has not been cat tested. He will need work on leash manners and basic obedience. Teddy will likely be available for adoption mid November. If you are interested in meeting and potentially adopting Teddy please fill out an application.
