We were thrilled when Patches was adopted! Here’s what her new person says:
Just to let you know Patches is doing well. She loves going for a walk and cuddling on the couch after work. So glad I adopted an older dog because she is adjusting well to my routine and is great company. I’ve included a couple of photos of her relaxing. Thanks for helping her out.

Stanley is an adorable ‘decoration’!
Read what his new family says about him:
Dec. 16th we adopted Dorito…now going by Stanley. He is the cutest little kitty and has made himself right at home. His favorite place to sleep is on a small table with the Christmas decorations. He has a little cold but is taking his medicine like a trouper! Thank you for all you do!!!

Caring for homeless animals like Minnie the Chihuahua(above) and Woody(below) and finding them new homes is very rewarding work. But the costs of maintaining a facility that meets the needs of these animals are enormous. The Animal Protection Center of Southeastern Massachusetts is a registered 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization. We receive no federal or local funding. Donations from animal loving individuals are the only way we can hope to pay the costs of caring for almost 2,500 animals annually.
As just an example of what is done with your donation:
Without this organization, 2,500 animals in the area will be left with no where to go each year. We need your help to continue. Please consider contributing to the Animal Protection Center of Southeastern MA.
Donations can be made online:
Mail or drop off a donation at the shelter:

. She loves spending time with us and is always nearby. We take her everywhere and she’s getting along with other people and their pets perfectly – her favorite pastime is visiting the dog park near us. We fenced in the back yard for her and she adores playing catch with her frisbee and tennis balls. She got a clean bill of health from her new vet and is currently working on learning to walk on her leash. She’s doing pretty good for only 1 month into her training! She’s learned other commands such as “come”, “stay”, “sit” and our favorite, “high five.” She’s a very bright girl and is learning very quickly.Filed under - Success Stories 1 Comment so far.

Here at the Animal Protection Center, we’ve had the pleasure of knowing and loving many pit bulls. Nothing makes us happier than finding loving homes for these great dogs, and making new friends for the breed in the process. Just check out these adorable faces; who couldn’t fall in love?
Adopted from the APCSM, Hathaway is now a certified Canine Good Citizen. We are thrilled to know Hath has found his forever home!
Still waiting for a home is Victor, a 6 month old male pit bull with a stellar personality! He loves any and all affection and so cute, he usually gets it!
Join us for Paws in the Park October 16th at DCR’s Borderland State Park in Easton, MA to meet Hathaway and Victor!

“Yankee” was a wonderful dog, and we are so happy to see him in his new home (witha new name)! Here’s a note from his owner:
Well, I had to rename Yankee because of the dirty looks I got when I called him at the dog park (lol!) so his new name is Clancy. I chose Clancy because it sounded vaguely like “Yankee”. After I had picked it, I looked it up and it means red (and possibly red warrior) so it definitely fits!
He’s slowly slimming down – I’m not sure you can tell from the picture. However, he gets roasted marrow bones and treats pretty often, so he’s spoiled but he deserves it; he’s such a sweetheart!
Take care and best wishes!

Mikayla is one of the cats who is ready for a home!
After weeks and weeks of dipping cats and sanitizing the shelter, we are SO pleased to announce that a number of cats are now clear of infection and ready to be adopted!
Please stop by the shelter to visit these adorable cats who have patiently tolerated bi-weekly dipping while being confined to their cages. Every single one of them has a stellar personality and is so deserving of a chance to know a real home!
Kim (Shelter Manager) wants to thank everyone who has been helping us along the way:
When people heard we had ringworm, rather than turning away, they rallied around us. Volunteers and my staff have gone over and above anything I could have asked to clean the shelter and get the cats treated. Our friends from the public are keeping us fully stocked with all the supplies we need or have made monetary donations so we don’t go without. And we get e-mails daily of support or inquiries about certain cats, waiting for them to be “cleared” for adoption so they can come take them home. The support and kindness from everyone has been overwhelming and I just want to say “Thank you” to everyone for helping see us through this difficult time.
Kim Heise

Princess is a 6 year old chihuahua mix who was surrendered to the shelter with a few medical issues. She’s being treated for a skin allergy, and will need to have surgery to have her ‘cherry eye’ repaired. Princess is so incredibly sweet, and we would love to be able to help her with her medical needs. In order to do that, we need help from our supporters. Please consider donating to the Life is Precious Fund, which is used to help offset the costs of animals at our facility who need medical care.
