"EOWYN" gentle SWEETHEART *SCARED IN SHELTER* *MED_SX* (herding mix?)"MCAS"

 MCAS needs to spay/neuter all dogs before adoption, especially the females and purebred dogs! Management is failing the dogs and the community!

They recently adopted out *together* an intact male/female pair of purebred small dogs!! By failing their legal obligation to spay/neuter all adoption animals management has created a MUCH LARGER problem for homeless pets. .....WHAT are they thinking??? They could easily have created a simple, effective offsite medical  facility years ago that would only focus on the spay/neutering of the animals. ..but...it's not the dogs' fault, and the dogs need good adopters!

She is looking for a patient, low-key home where she can find her bravery at her own pace. 🏠 If you have a calm heart and a quiet corner for her to blossom in, Elowyn will be the most loyal, devoted companion you could ask for. 💕🌸

Meet Ralph, Robbie, and Ruby, a trio of eight-week-old herding breed mixes who are ready to bring a whole lot of brainpower and beauty to their future homes! These friendly little explorers are full of curiosity and smarts, making us think a DNA test would be a fun way for their new families to solve the mystery of their unique heritage 🧬. Because they likely have herding roots, these pups will thrive with active adopters who understand that an engaged puppy is a happy puppy. Prospective families should be ready for the rewarding challenge of puppyhood, which includes plenty of "paws-on" training, consistent potty schedules, and gentle socialization to help them grow into confident, well-mannered adults 🐾. While they are small now, they have big personalities and even bigger hearts, and they are looking for leaders who will guide them through their milestones with patience, play, and plenty of positive reinforcement 🌟.

Amme is eager to please and can't wait to start her journey with a family that will guide her through all the puppy milestones with plenty of love and treats along the way ✨.
