Flash Beagle Medfield, MA

Flash is in a foster home with another dog and is doing well with his housebreaking. If you want to meet him, please be sure to fill out an application so we can set up a time for his foster family to bring him to the Shelter.

Three-year-old Flash loves all dogs and loves to play. During his stay
at the Shelter he has met every size dog from Chihuahua to St. Bernard
and has been great with all of them. Flash was adopted from us six
months ago but was recently returned because he never really settled
into the home and had some separation anxiety and housebreaking
issues. He is not anxious at the Shelter, and in fact, he is very
outgoing and his tail always wags, so we think he would be happiest in
a home with an experienced dog owner and another dog to keep him
company as well as a fenced yard where he could run and play. He is in
his element sniffing and exploring and following his Beagle nose. He
walks pretty well on a leash and really enjoys getting out for
exercise.

Flash had two seizures in February and was put on medication that he will have to take for life. He has not had a seizure since starting his meds.


We give priority to people that fill out our adoption application, so if you are interested in meeting one of our dogs, that is the first step. E-mail inquiries about a dog are not considered an application.

If a dog is listed on our website, that means that dog is still available for adoption. The Shelter is staffed primarily by volunteers so adoption meetings take place on Saturdays from 11 - 1:00 during adoption hours, or by appointment. Our dog adoption fee for dogs 5 years old or younger is $350. Every dog we place is given age-appropriate vaccines, wormed, treated for ticks/fleas, tested for heartworm and spayed/neutered prior to adoption. We send each dog home with a collar and leash and a month's worth of heartworm preventative. If a dog is listed on our website, they are still available for adoption. Please fill out the adoption application if you would like to be considered for a dog you see in our care.

With very few exceptions, dogs are happiest and the most well-behaved when they receive daily exercise and ongoing training, so we always prefer to place our dogs with families who are willing to make a commitment to both.
