Dog available for adoption

Are you a lover of Australian Shepherds? How about Great Pyrenees? Then come and meet Goose, a 9 month old Aussie/Great Pyrenees mix who currently weighs about 65 lbs. No doubt when he is fully grown Goose will be in the range of 75 to 80lbs of beautiful beige and white fluff.

He is a happy go lucky pup that is fully house trained, knows basic commands, loves dogs, children and people. Goose currently lives with a German Shepherd that is determined to be the only dog in the family, so his owner has decided that Goose deserves a home without the stress of an aggressive housemate.

We are doing an owner to owner adoption for Goose where he remains in his home while we help the family find a new, wonderful adopter. Call us at 508-548-7742 to meet this beautiful dog.

Dog available for adoption

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.

Dog available for adoption

Rosie Rosie is a lovely blonde, 38lb terrier mix who was at the shelter back in May. Her owner was not able to keep her due to health issues and Rosie’s energy.

Rosie is a friendly dog that walks well on leash and enjoys being with people. She can be reactive around strange dogs, but her anxiety has been significantly reduced by medication. You may have seen her in the Falmouth Christmas Parade where she was very happy to walk with our other dogs and had no problem with any of the dogs that lined the parade route. Rosie has been spayed, fully vaccinated and is microchipped. Call us at 508-548-7742 to meet her.

Dog available for adoption

Blue Ridge Bear, or just Blue, is a beautiful black and white Malamute mix that needs a new home. Several months ago, the family was vacationing in the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina and found Blue wandering and alone. After spending an extra 5 days searching for an owner with no success and finding a veterinarian to provide some care to Blue, they decided to bring him home to Cape Cod.

Changing family circumstances have led his family to do an owner to owner adoption through us. Blue is about 2 years old and weighs about 55 lbs. 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.

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 3 to 5pm every day. We are located on the town’s Service Road, near the Wastewater Treatment Plant. The Service Road can be reached from Brick Kiln Road or Blacksmith Shop Road. 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 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.
