My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VT

Good with dogs: Yes

Good with cats: Unknown

Good with kids: Yes older

Crate trained: Yes

House Trained: Yes

Gretel is a beautiful, spunky and affectionate young lady with a big personality! She is very smart and food-motivated and therefore picks up on training quickly.

With proper introductions, Gretel plays well with other medium and small dogs and adjusts her energy level as needed, being gentle with more reserved pups and rougher with rowdier ones. She gains confidence and takes cues from other dogs and would thrive in a home with another dog. She is a medium energy and when she’s not playing with other pups or enjoying a good game of fetch, she’s calm and content to near you.

Gretel can be nervous when meeting new people and can take some time to feel safe around them. She will need adopters willing to advocate for her when doing intros with new people who will want to pet her. Once you are in her pack she is a devoted and loving best friend.

Gretel has not had much exposure to cats, but we suspect she could do well with dog-savvy cats. She is fully house trained, crate trained and would love a fenced yard or nearby enclosed park.

Gretel will make a fantastic walking companion and is eager to meet her forever family!

More about this rescue

Our mission at Last Hope K9 Rescue is to save every possible dog we can from being euthanized within high-volume kill shelters throughout the U.S.

As the literal “last hope” of nearly every animal we serve, we work tirelessly to place each one within a stable, loving environment that can act as either their forever home, or the gateway to their forever home. We also strive to ensure that all of our adoptions and foster placements are the optimal fit for everyone involved, including our dogs. This leads to our second goal: enriching human lives through canine companionship. To us, you can’t have one without the other.

Lastly, we promote animal welfare by lobbying important initiatives that both protect and give voice to the voiceless. By fostering an environment of collaboration with other organizations that share our goals, and working together instead of in competition, we find that we accomplish more.
