Looking for something to add some excitement to the cold dreary weather we have been having? Well, we have just the thing! This is Diesel, a big goofy, happy go lucky boy filled with the joy of life. He has a constant grin on his face and is always ready for some silly games. He is full of energy, full of puppy fun and ready for his new best buddy to come take him home. He is looking for someone who will take him running or jogging, or a rousing game in a big fenced in yard. He needs lots of exercise. Remember Marmaduke, the cartoon? This is him! After exercise, he would also be happy to go inside and flop on the couch for a bit of loving and napping. We feel he could be a great lap dog.

While being in a pound is difficult for him, he still tries to keep his run clean and since he is only able to go outside for a few minutes everyday, he is understandably excited when his turn comes and tends to pull. He is strong, no doubt about it but is willing and anxious to learn the rules. He already knows to sit when asked, and takes treats gently. Then he romps and runs some more. We have videos we can send you and we guarantee you, you will not be able to stop laughing at his antics. He is the happiest dog we have met in quite a while. Please come visit him..it will make your day...and maybe your whole year. He will do his best to win you over!

Hi, My name is GP! Like Geeee, isn't she PPPPPretty!!! I am a sweet and pretty little girl, at least that is what the nice people here at the pound tell me. And I believe them. I was adopted from here a while back but my people could no longer care for me, so here I am back again. It's not too bad and the volunteers here sweet talk to me and take me on walks. I love visiting the other dogs on walks, and love the attention I get . Everyone says I will make some lucky family a great family member. I am likely housebroken, but will likely need a bit of a refresher. But I am smart and happy to learn so it won't be hard. I would love a nice yard to play in and get to know and bond with my new peeps! Could that be you? Please take a ride to Gloucester to meet me soon. I am worth the trip and will cover you with wiggles and kisses! Bye for now!

This fine young man is Belroi (bell roy). He came to the animal control pound as a stray and no one came looking for him. While he hasn't always had a good life, he doesn't let that get him down. He always has a smile on his face and is ready for your attention, whether it be a quiet snuggle or a brisk walk. He is learning to walk calmly on a leash using a gentle leader and is improving everyday. He is so proud of himself and gladly takes the treats offered to him. He appears to be at least partially housebroken as he does his biz the minute he goes out the door. He may need a refresher course. He loves to ride in the car and his people are his most favorite thing. He will make someone a loving and devoted companion and would love to be an only furry child. He would love to have a fenced in yard for a rousing game of fetch, then maybe a nap by the fire. Please come see him, he is such a sweet dog and deserves a home and family all his very own.

Hi there, Colt here! I am a happy and fun loving guy and find myself looking for a new home since my family could no longer care for me. My previous people have lots of great things to say about me, but here I am at the pound. The folks here at the pound think I am a great guy, so hopefully you will too. I am about 6 years old, and about 46 pounds. I am house trained, and I really try to do my biz outside, even here at the pound. At home, I go to the door to let you know I need to go! I am very friendly, and get along with others of all kinds...even kids and cats! I love to run and play when I can, so a doggie sibling would suit me just fine. Sadly, I do have heart worms but I will receive treatment for them, and if you decide I am the guy for you, you can foster to adopt me until I finish my treatment. It would be great for me to recuperate in a nice home rather than a pound. I am otherwise healthy and happy, so we all have high hopes for my future. Please call Ms. Joyce and she will set up a meet and greet for you. You will not be sorry cause I am one Great Guy!!!

This sweetie pie is Foxy. At this young age, sweet Foxy finds herself looking for a new home. She came in as a stray with her sister. While we don't know much about little Foxy, we do know this...she is adorable and ready to make your home a fun place to be. She is a beauty, on the small side, knows to sit for treats and takes them gently. Someone took the time to teach her, but never came looking for her or her sissy. So now she is in the market for a new and loving home. She gets along with everyone, and would do well with another dog to mentor her and be her buddy. She goes into a crate willingly, and wants to be friends with each and every dog in the pound. She readily gives kisses and snuggles and is so very smart and eager to please. She is healthy and ready to take on the world. She would love being in obedience training or agility. She is a bundle of love and energy. Please come meet her and become yet another member of her fan club. She is ready to go and get on with life! Call Joyce today.

This big bundle of love is Burton. Burton came in showing signs of having had a difficult life. But here his life is changing, for the better. Now this sweet lug of a boy understands that meals come regularly, that walking on a leash can be a good time to do your biz, and most of all, he has friends who show him love everyday. He now has a big squishy ball that is constantly in his mouth. He just loves his toys, and has them with him all the time. He also enjoys his soft bed and is looking forward to the day when he can be the beloved companion of his very own people. He is a big boy, and strong, but also full of love and desire to please. He would love a family of his own, experienced with his breed, one that can help him to be the very best he can be. He is eager to please and will make a devoted friend. His New Years resolution is to be your very own lap dog. Yes...he is a lap dog in training, all the while chomping on his squishy green ball. Please come meet Burton...you will be glad you did! Please call Joyce today for a meet and greet.

This is sweet Lola, an older girl of about 6 or 7. She is now bunking at the Gloucester Mathews Humane Society in Gloucester. She has been here a while and is looking for her very own home. Having been at the shelter for so long, and the pound before that, she would really like a home of her very own where she could get all the love and attention. She loves people, and wiggles with delight when you go to her run to visit. She would prefer someone who is familiar with the breed as she sometimes doesn't understand if you try to take her food away from her. She would love to be the best girl and wants to be your best buddy. If you think you can help her, please contact Amanda at the humane society. She is a sweet girl deserving of a good home. She is adorable....

This sweet boy is Tide! Tide is the perfect example of the Bigger they are, the Sweeter they are. Tide is four years young, just the right age to be lots of fun but without all the puppy drama. Tide came in with another dog and is now looking for a new home. Staying in such a confined space as the pound for so long has caused Tide to be a bit particular when dogs go by his run. Since he did well with other dogs in his previous family, we feel he will settle down with the right calm doggy siblings. Of course, he would love to have a new family where he is the only furry child as he loves attention, takes treats gently and loves to go for long walks or play with his people in a fenced in yard. He would love to be your outside walking buddy and then crash on the couch for a bit of TV or reading. Or maybe a nice nap in the sunbeam.... A nice puffy bed of his own would be acceptable too!

Tide is very excited when it is time to go out and he may be housebroken. He loves his new halter and gentle leader which makes it easier to walk him. Tide is looking for someone who is a BIG dog person, who can handle his strength and who will give him the love and attention he needs. He is such a love bug that you will fall in love with him immediately. Are you a lover of BIG dogs? This 80 pound baby is waiting for you....please call Joyce and set up a meet and greet! You will be glad you did! He is a great find!

Duke:

Duke is a hunk of a dog on tiny legs, a low rider. He is very easy to walk , loves his walks and has a lot of character. He does not like other dogs and can be dog aggressive. He should be an only dog for sure. The volunteers say he is comical, happy and a low rider. Duke loves his walks but needs to learn not to pulls so much on the leash. His tail is always wagging. He is very gentle taking treats and has a lot of youthfulness about him.

Barnabus:

Has $300 sponsorship. This big gentle hunk of love has a lot to offer a good person. He is a great dog with a lot of love to give but he must trust you; you must earn his respect thus love. Bite history: on leash with bone in mouth and someone went to pet his ear and he bit them. You have to ease into a friendship but once you are accepted, you are his buddy. He is reserved and guarded with strangers AND does not get along with other dogs; at least that is our experience so far. When we ready him for a walk he bounces around like a puppy, licking your face while bumping up against you. He is a strong dog and pulls a little too much on a leash. He loves us, his caretakers. So we know he could do the same with someone else. Other than his not particularly liking other dogs, we all wonder why he is still in a rescue. Isn’t it true that we humans do not like some humans as much as others?

Michael

This ridiculously cute guy is definitely unique looking and is such a sweet boy! We don't know for sure what his mix is, but we are guessing Shar Pei mixed with perhaps some lab. He is around 5 years young and is a nice medium size at around 40 pounds. He does best in a calm environment and he is very gentle once he warms up to you. He does very well walking on a leash and likes to be close to his person. He is attentive, eager to learn, and does well in a home. Michael is a very smart boy and already knows some basic commands. Michael would do best with an experienced owner as he can be protective of his family. Michael has been around other dogs but we would recommend careful introductions when meeting any dog and ideally be the only dog in the home.

Pinky (spayed and utd on shots, all negative test results) Pinky was found as a stray and brought to PAC so we don’t know anything about her past. She is a pit that is about 1.5 years old. After she came in she was treated for demodectic mange but her fur has grown back nicely and she is doing awesome! She is a great girl. Pinky is still young and spunky and can be a little high energy at times and would probably do best in an active household. Pinky can be a little picky about the dogs she likes but she is just so sweet and loves attention and being around people.

Rambo (neutered and up to date on shots) is a handsome black and white pit that is 5+ years old. He was picked up as a stray so we don’t know anything about his past. He is such a sweet heart and a big lover boy. Rambo is easy going and affectionate! He can be a little bit of a resource guarder, so that is just something to be aware of. But Rambo is still pretty spunky despite showing a little age on his face and loves, loves playing with toys!! He often gets over looked here in our shelter and we are really hoping to find a forever home for this awesome dog!
