This beautiful girl is searching for a patient, understanding family who will give her the opportunity to feel safe, build trust, and show off her wonderful personality!We want to be upfront about one important thing with Luna. She can be reactive when meeting new people. New faces and unfamiliar situations can make her nervous, and she may initially react out of fear or uncertainty. Because of this, Luna needs slow, controlled introductions and someone who understands the importance of giving her a little space and time to adjust.The good news? After just a few minutes, once Luna realizes you're a friend, she typically settles down and warms up! And once she knows you, she's a completely different dog! Luna is fun-loving, playful, affectionate, and full of personality.

Read more about Darling

Darling truly lives up to her name. She came to us from our friends @bostonanimalcontrol after being found as a severely emaciated stray. When she first arrived, it was clear she had been through so much—she was broken, frightened, and badly mistreated. She couldn’t make eye contact, walk down the stairs, or even wag her tail. But within just one day, her foster family began to see something beautiful happening: a little light starting to come back
.
. And now? Darling is SO HAPPY. Her whole body wiggles with excitement, she gives endless kisses, and she’s discovering that the world can actually be a wonderful place.

She’s still learning how to “dog” but she gains confidence every day. She loves to frolic, prance, play, and explore, but she also settles beautifully and is perfectly content curled up in her person’s lap while they work or read. She’s a true cuddle bug who wants to be wherever her people are—and yes, she absolutely needs to sleep in your bed.

Darling is learning about toys and has recently discovered tug, chasing balls, and the joys of chewing on a good pig ear. She walks nicely on leash and she would LOVE a fenced yard where she can zoom and prance to her heart’s content. She’s also been good with cats!

She is still working hard on house training, so her new family will need to continue helping her learn. Most importantly, Darling needs someone who understands her journey and will continue showing her that she is safe, loved, and never needs to be afraid again.

And perhaps the best thing about Darling? After everything she’s been through, she chose love. She wakes up every morning ready to wiggle her entire body, shower her person with kisses, and celebrate another day of being safe. Her foster says her morning routine brings endless joy—and we can absolutely see why.

Darling is ready for a family who will give her a safe home, a yard to frolic in, a bed to sleep in, and a whole lot of love. This sweet girl has so much happiness left to discover.

21. Pip

Young · Male · Labrador Retriever / Mixed · 24 mi from Revere

Pip is a lab mix weighing 44lbs at around 10 months old, he is an extremely loving and gentle, affectionate boy once he has had a little time to get comfortable with you, and loves to play with all kinds of toys! He is typically more on the mellow, laidback side, and loves to relax on the couch. He would probably do best in a quieter home or with someone that will be patient with him as he can be slightly nervous and timid at times especially when meeting new people or dogs. He may let out a few barks, but after a few moments pass and he realizes you’re there to be friends he is wagging his tail and giving kisses in no time.

Read more about Pip

Pip is potty trained and crate trained. He likes to use his crate as a safe spot, and eats his meals in his crate as well as sleeps throughout the night in there. He does well with a slow introduction to other dogs and is fine with cats, and typically keeps to himself around them, but at times he will get the zoomies and playfully chase my other dogs around the yard. He has not yet been around children younger than 12 years old, but did well with my 12 and 13 year old siblings. He also does well on walks and in the car, and absolutely loves to play in any type of water!

Why adopt an adult dog in Revere

An adult dog's personality is fully formed, so the rescue can tell you how they are with people, other pets and busy households. Many have lived in foster homes and are already house-trained.

Grown dogs need less supervision than puppies and often know the basics, like sitting and walking on a leash, which suits people who work or have young children.
