Dog available for adoption

Jimmy Dean is a 1.5 year old, brown Dachshund who weighs about 23lbs. He is up to date on all his vaccines and has been neutered and microchipped. So far, he seems to be a very sweet, but very shy, pup who is a bit terrified of all the new people he’s been seeing around him. We are slowly getting him accustomed to our volunteers.

Jimmy Dean does love to play with other dogs and we think a home with another friendly dog would be ideal for him. If you would like to meet him, call the shelter at 508-548-7742 to have your name put on Jimmy’s list.

Dog available for adoption

Marshmallow, a white, male Terrier mix with wiry hair who weighs about 39 lbs is still at the isolation facility we use, being treated for ear infections. We’ve been told by our contacts at the isolation facility that Marshmallow is a wonderful, friendly pup. As soon as he is cleared, we will be scheduling times for you to meet him so call 508-548-7742 for an appointment.

Dog available for adoption

Have you been looking for a Sheep Dog or a Standard Poodle? Then you might like to meet Louie, a 2 year old Sheepadoodle mix that we are helping to rehome. Louie’s owners, an older couple, expected Louie to be a smaller dog.

At 63 pounds, Louie is more than they can comfortably handle. Louie’s curly black and white coat looks all poodle and he’s been neutered and microchipped. An active family who loves to do long walks and a fenced in yard would be ideal since lots of exercise will make Louie very happy. To meet Louie, call us at 508-548-7742.

Dog available for adoption

Emmy is a 10 year old lab mix that originally came from Puerto Rico. She is a very easy going, sweet dog that is happy to go on long walks and hang out with her family. Her owner is a frequent traveler and Emmy does not seem to enjoy traveling like she used to.

We are doing an owner to owner adoption where Emmy remains at home while we schedule meet and greets for her. Emmy is a healthy pup, up to date on vaccines and will make a happy addition to any family. If you would like to meet her, please call us at 508-548-7742.

Dog available for adoption

Shadow, a 10 year old Siberian Husky, is available for adoption. This is an owner to owner adoption where Shadow remains in his current home while a new family is found for him. His owner is an older widow who is finding it difficult to provide Shadow with proper care.

He is a calm, undemanding dog that enjoys walking and hanging out in his yard. We recently took Shadow to an adoption event and he confirmed his mellow, friendly nature and was not bothered by strange dogs and lots of new people walking by. If you would like to give Shadow a loving home, call us at 508-548-7742 to schedule a meet and greet.

On Friday, we expect to have a 7-year-old Vizsla surrendered to us due to a change in his family’s housing. Vizslas are active, energetic dogs bred for hunting birds and being great companions. We will have more information and a picture next week, but if you would like to get your name on our list to see this purebred dog, call 508-548-7742.

Donations of sheets, blankets and towels are always welcomed. Please don’t leave them outside but instead, drop them off when our volunteers are at the shelter, 9 to 11am or 4 to 6pm every day. Thank you to those of you that keep us well supplied.

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 community, donations by check (PO Box 438, Falmouth, MA 02541) or or via PayPal are always welcomed.

Friends of Falmouth Dogs holds state license #0183.
