UPDATE 7/18/25 ADOPTED or on hold
MCAS
needs to spay/neuter all dogs before adoption (and ensure that the dogs are given adequate care and recovery time!)
Adopting
intact dogs to new homes is grossly irresponsible in our current
homeless dog crisis. EVEN POOR counties with a much smaller budget for
animal control are ensuring that the dogs are spayed/neutered prior to
adoption. Management
is failing the animals and the community.
Solution?
- lease/create an offsite space and hire part-time well- qualified
Veterinarians and qualified volunteers to help out. Provide safe
spay/neuter and provide a safe recovery space so all adoptable animals
are spay/neutered before they go to new homes.

"Pina is the sweetest dog ever. She is really perfect in almost every
way. Good with dogs, good with cats, good with chickens, good with
small animals. She has shown interest in chasing wildlife, so I do
supervise her with the chickens and cats, but I've not seen any
aggression when supervised. I think she would do well in almost any home
as long as you can play fetch with her a couple times a day, take her
for a brief walk, and allow her to lay with you on the couch. She wants
to do everything with her people and will be your little shadow. She
is amazing with verbal commands and comes when called. She's very smart
and is trained, but will be easy to train even further as she wants so
badly to please people and be good. She's pretty small, at around 40
lbs, and a perfect walker on a leash. I'm sure she'd love to jog and go
hiking as well. She doesn't really like to be kenneled, but will
tolerate it when I'm at work. She does better in the kennel if her dog
friend is being kenneled next to her (she would love a dog friend in her
forever home). The kennel is the only place I've heard her bark. The
family who adopts Pina will be the luckiest to have her."
