Seeking Dog Lovers to Open Their Hearts and Homes!!
Calling all dog lovers: our homeless dogs need YOU! A large drop in adoptions nationwide has resulted in an overpopulation of dogs living in US shelters. Our adoption centers are at 90% capacity, but we’re determined to do everything we can to continue to provide a safe place for local surrender to land, and help our relocation partner shelters. So we’re seeking warm-hearted adopters to open their hearts and homes to dogs in need!
The MSPCA is launching “Mass Saves” along with our MA shelter partners Boston Animal Control, Berkshire Humane Society, Dakin Humane Society, Thomas J. O’Connor Animal Control & Adoption Center and Worcester Animal Rescue League. Mass Saves is a week-long adoptathon to be held July 15 – 21. During this timeframe, we’ll be waiving the adoption fees for dogs over the age of 1 year. Mark your calendars, and if there’s a dog you’ve had your eye on, take this as a sign.
How to meet a dog:
- View our adoptable dogs! Dogs eligible for the adoptathon will be indicated by a star on their profile.
- The event will take place at all four of our adoption centers in Methuen, Boston, Cape and Salem as well as our shelter partners: Berkshire Humane Society, Dakin Humane Society, Thomas J O’Connor Animal Control and Adoption Center, Worcester Animal Rescue League, Animal Protection Center of Southeastern Massachusetts, Baypath Humane Society and Lowell Humane Society. All Boston Animal Care and Control dogs available for the event will be adopted through MSPCA shelters. Check the links provided to see each location’s open adoption hours and come on in!
- Review our How to Adopt page so you know what to expect. Many of our dogs are able to go home with adopters same day, while others may require multiple meets.
- Need supplies such as food, toys, crates, etc? We carry most of the essentials right here in our adoption center.
