Stop by Highfield Hall on Sunday, 6/22, during their Hounds of Highfield event where we will be celebrating everything about dogs. The festivities start at 11:00 am and last until 2:00 pm and included dog games, dog events and dog contests. It’s lots of fun to see so many people and so many different sizes and breeds of dogs all in one place. Visit our table to say hello!

Drako, Chance and Zoe have all found wonderful homes and we appreciate all the people who called and came to meet them. We wish our dogs many, many happy years in their new homes.

Dog available for adoption

We have a dog that recently arrived from Texas named Captain. He’s a Doberman mix who will be 2 years old very soon and weighs 46 lbs. Since he is currently underweight, we expect that his proper weight will be 55 to 60 lbs. Captain is a little shy at first but warms up to new people pretty quickly and is very loving. As we get to know him better, we’ve learned he is a great walker and stays by your side pretty easily. He is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. Call us at 508-548-7742 if you would like to schedule a meet and greet for Captain.

Dog available for adoption

A few weeks ago, a stray dog, that was given the name Jack, came to the shelter and was never claimed, so we are assisting the Animal Control Officers in finding a new home for him. Jack is a large, happy dog that looks a bit like A Swiss Mountain Dog but we do not know his breed. The vet believes he is pretty young and healthy and has been vaccinated and neutered. Jack will require a strong owner and some training to walk on leash properly but really enjoys being with people. Come and meet Jack by calling 508-548-7742 for an appointment.

Dog available for adoption

Blue Ridge Bear, or just Blue, is a beautiful black and white Malamute mix that needs a new home. Changing family circumstances led his family to do an owner to owner adoption through us. Unfortunately, Blue’s new owner developed some medical issues that will keep from providing the exercise Blue needs, so we are again looking for a new home for Blue. He is about 2 years old, weighs about 55 lbs and is very friendly. He enjoys walking and going to the dog park, is up to date on vaccinations and has been neutered. As with most Northern breed dogs, Blue enjoys being outside, even in the cold, so a fenced yard would be a very nice feature of his new home. If you’d like to meet Blue, call us at 508-548-7742.

Dog available for adoption

If you are looking to give a warm, loving home to a senior dog, come and meet Otis, a senior Husky mix. His former owner believes Otis is about 15 years old, but he acts like a younger dog. The vet thought Otis could be as young as 12! In any case, Otis is moderately active and has a pretty mello disposition. He passed his physical exam with flying colors. He has been vaccinated and neutered. If you would like to meet Otis, please call us at 508-548-7742.

Dog available for adoption

We have a smart, white fluffy dog that is looking for a new, loving home. Monet is an 8 year old American Eskimo Dog who will be happiest in a home with no children, no other dogs and no cats. Monet is an excellent walker who enjoys meeting people when he is out and about and usually ignores other dogs he meets. One of his favorite things to do is go for car rides. Except for being a little overweight, Monet is in excellent health, neutered and fully vaccinated. Call us at 508-548-7742 to make an appointment to meet Monet.

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.

Friends of Falmouth Dogs holds state license #0183.
