This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped.
Meet Molly Dee! She is one unique and well-mannered girl--she has the body of a Bassett Hound with the coat of a German Shepherd--making her 110% beautiful.
She is cautious around new people, always shy at adoption events. Don’t let that fool you as once you get her home and let her explore…she warms up quickly. Before you know it, she will be following you around and whacking you with her tail (it wags constantly and its thick!).
She is fully housetrained and can be left on her own with a run of the house or in a crate. She will not get up on the furniture unless invited for a cuddle. She also loves riding in the car. She has no problem waiting patiently and quietly inside the car while you run your errands.
Don’t let her short legs fool you as she enjoys taking walks and good romp at the dog park. Those little legs are strong…she can do a 3 ft vertical jump into the car! She is a joy to walk and walks on a loose lease unless she sees a squirrel! She likes playing fetch in the house with her stuffed animals but will also settle down to rest if no one is paying attention to her.
Molly Dee has lived in variety of foster homes over the past year including quiet and active ones. She has lived with children, dogs and cats all with good reports. While she has lived with kids we think she would do best with older kids. She will bark at and avoid new visitors to her home. If they are counseled to ignore her and allow her to approach on her own terms, she will gradually warm up and ask for pets. This can take longer for males vs females but not more than a day or so.
Think Molly Dee is your missing piece? Fill out an application to let her know!
An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see HERE for more information about this.

**Additional info you should know - For most of our dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. 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.
Pour toute adoption, nous demandons des justificatifs afin de compléter le dossier de l’adoptant : une pièce d’identité, un justificatif de domicile original de moins de 3 mois, et le certificat d’engagement et de connaissance des besoins spécifiques de l’espèce complété et signé 7 jours avant l’acquisition de l’animal.
Nous demandons également une participation financière, couvrant les frais vétérinaires dont l’animal a bénéficié lors de sa prise en charge (stérilisation, identification, vaccination, etc..). Si l’animal n’est pas encore stérilisé lors de l’adoption, un chèque de caution de 300€ est demandé.
