Friends of Falmouth Dogs has been the beneficiary of the generosity of the Fromm dog food company, Uptown Dog of Cape Cod and their customers that resulted in FFD receiving 37 cases of Fromm canned dog food. Our pooches will be getting extra deliciousness with their meals for a very long time. Thank you!!
Lexi, a female lab/shepherd mix, is available for adoption. She’s about 2 years old and has super soft black fur down her back that becomes silvery on her sides. Playing with toys and walking with volunteers are 2 of her favorite things to do. Lexi can be a bit shy when meeting new people and prefers women initially but will warm up to men gradually. She has come to us because she did not always get along with her owner’s 11 year old grandson and it broke the owner’s heart to give up this sweet dog. Lexi weighs 55 lbs, has been vaccinated, spayed and microchipped. If you’d like to meet Lexi, please call the shelter at 508-548-7742.
Little Rosie is a beige Standard Schnauzer, about 11 years old who weighs 24 lbs. She is up to date on vaccines, has been spayed, and will have a thorough dental cleaning this month. All the volunteers love Little Rosie and admire her spunky, active spirit. She was surrendered in Texas because of demanding work schedules of her owners and small children in the house, including a new baby. If you are interested in meeting Little Rosie both or either of these dogs, contact the shelter at 508-548-7742.
Sky, a 10 year old, female lab mix, is the newest member of our shelter. She has a pretty red colored coat and appears to be very friendly to our volunteers and other dogs. Sky came to us due to a divorce in her family where she lived with small children. We are getting to know Sky better and will be taking her to the vet for a complete exam and needed vaccines. She is spayed and fully house trained. Come and meet this sweet girl by calling 508-549-7742 for an appointment.
Juan Pablo, a 10 year old Chihuahua mix, arrived from Texas and is a real cutie. He’s staying with a local foster family who report that he settled right in and made himself at home. Sleeping in a crate was not a problem for Juan Pablo and lounging around the house makes him happy, too. He’s all black, weighs about 17lbs, is up to date on vaccines and is very friendly. JP’s owners in Texas surrendered him due to changes in the family and think JP would be happiest with older or no children in the home. Call for an appointment at 508-548-7742 to meet Juan Pablo.
A few months ago, we advertised Jimmy Dean, a 1.5 year old, brown Dachshund mix who weighs about 23lbs. Due to his shyness and fear of new people, we had him stay with 2 different foster families to gain confidence and become accustomed to new people. In both homes, he bonded with the primary female in the family within a few weeks and tolerates other members of the family. In both cases, the families had other dogs that helped Jimmy Dean settle into the family. We would recommend a female dog that is larger than Jimmy since he has a fair amount of energy to play. He is up to date on all his vaccines, microchipped and has been neutered. If you would like to meet him, please call the shelter at 508-548-7742.
Monetary donations are always needed here at the shelter so we can continue caring for the dogs in our custody and help low income dog owners pay for veterinary care and dog food. Our goal is that with our help, many more dogs will stay healthy - or get heathy - and live longer and happier lives.
The Cape Cod Foundation provides grant funding to us and we are supremely grateful for their support. Unfortunately, our costs exceed our grant support. If you would like to help provide medical care for the dogs in our care and in our community, donations by check (PO Box 438, Falmouth, MA 02541) or or via PayPal are always welcomed.
