Some emotions may come up when discussing Doggy Chase’s life story. At 9 years old, Chase has spent most of his life in a kennel, so it is important that he finally be able to find his fur-ever home at his mature age.
Chase has been under the care of the Animal Protection Center of Southeastern Massachusetts (APCSM) and is a pro at his dog studies: he is housetrained, loves to go for walks, and is a fan of playing outside. He is a true adventurer!
It is suggested that Chase be the only pet at home. He is ready to give you love! Chase is a big fan of cuddling- he truly enjoys a nice life balance of lounging and playing.
Chase is around 65 pounds, and is a Terrier/Pit Bull Mix. Please read the information below, share this with anyone who may be a good fit with Chase, or consider bringing him home yourself!
He is ready to be your next family member so please read the information below and continue to the APCSM website for next steps. Also, the public hours of APCSM are Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 1-4pm!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Step 1: Find a friend!
Visit our website to view listings of all animals currently looking for homes.
You’ll find information on each pet by clicking on their picture.
If you have questions about a specific animal, please email us directly at [email protected]
Please kindly take note that we do not retain applications for extended periods, nor for special requests. Our website is updated automatically as animals become available, so please check back regularly!
An adoption inquiry is not a hold, reservation, or guarantee on pet adoption.
Step 2: Send in your app
If you see an animal you like, submit an adoption application! If you aren’t sure on exactly which animal – that’s OK too. We can do a general meet and greet with multiple animals.
After submitting an application, our staff will review your information and contact you. Please allow up to 3 business days to hear from us.
We will schedule a day and time for you to come to the shelter to meet the pet(s) you are interested in adopting.
Step 3: Meet your new buddy!
If your meet-and-greet goes well, it’s time to adopt! Your counselor will guide you through some paperwork to make it official. See our current adoption fees.
If you are adopting a cat, kitten, or small animal, please bring a secure carrier to safely transport them home. A collar and leash will be provided to you if you are adopting a dog.
If You Have Other Pets at Home:
We prefer that your current animals be up-to-date on vaccinations and regular/semi-regular check ups.
If you are adopting a dog or guinea pig, we will arrange a time for your current pets to meet your new friend here at the shelter to ensure they’re a good fit.
If you are adopting a cat, bird, or other small animal, we will not have them meet beforehand. We do recommend and encourage SLOW, supervised introductions in your home.
Please remember, we want you to succeed! Our animals deserve loving homes and every potential adopter goes through the same adoption process to ensure the animals are placed in a safe environment. We hope you find a great match!
