Hi there my friends...you can call me Skeeter! Yeah I know, I am the cutest dog that you've ever seen...I hear it all the time! The nice people who took me in from a high volume kill shelter until I find a home of my own, say that I look to be a Belgian Shepherd Malinois mix, but I think I look more like Tom Brady, you know the Patriots' quarterback all the women go crazy over. However I do have many classic Malinois traits: I'm very devoted, energetic, smart and sociable - so ya, I'm wonderful! I am around 1 year old and I love people and other dogs. I sometimes forget my size though, so I might unintentionally hurt a smaller dog during play. Though I haven't been aggressive with cats at the vet's, another trait of the Malinois is a high prey drive, so I may not be the best fit for a home with cats. I am looking for a family who is willing to invest the time, energy and patience to give me the training l need, so I will be a well mannered and socialized adult. I would love a home with a fenced-in yard, so I can run and play safely. I'm always happy and can be kind of goofy - I have such a fun personality! I also LOVE to play in puddles and I bark when I'm excited! Doesn't everyone? I promise that if you give me a fur-ever home I will give you lots of love and be the great family dog you dreamed of. Thanks for checking me out, and if you'd like to make me yours, please fill out an application! I can't wait to meet you!

Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.
