Friends in need of homes

Milford — At four-months old Hemingway is an already-handsome all-black kitty. Soft and shiny black, he’s an adorable kitty that gets along well with other cats. As he’s already neutered, he is ready to adopt a people family who will love his playful personality and sweet disposition. Callie is a playful and handsome nine-month-young Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler whose owner’s medical problems prevented him from keeping Callie. Needing a home that is able to devote time to basic obedience training and a lot of activity, Callie’s a smart pup whose frisky-cattle-dog, high-energy personality will make him a wonderful playmate and an affectionate and devoted family member. He’s been neutered and has all his shots so he’s ready to adopt his new family now -- and be all moved in for the holidays. Abandoned in the basement of an empty house and thought to be about a year old, Justin is a Jack Russell terrier mix who seems to get along well with other dogs and young and adult visitors to the shelter. His frisky agility suggests a playful nature that will fit in well in a family that directs his intelligent, energetic behavior to enjoy a lively companion that will be a loyal and affectionate family member.
