Taz, adoptable from Lucy Mackenzie Humane Society
“Hi! My name is Taz and I’m a 6-year-old neutered male Rottweiler. I came to Lucy Mackenzie after living in a few different homes. Nobody could keep me. It makes me sad because more than anything, I want a human companion to spend the rest of my life with. I bond really tightly with people I love and trust.
“I was clearly trained early on in life, and my human friends here have been helping me to remember all that good stuff. I’m quite a comedian, too, and am known as the Clown of the Kennel!
“I’d love to find a home that has experience with Rottweilers, because I have a lot of inherent Rotti behaviors. More than anything, though, I’d love to find a home that wouldn’t give up on me.
“If you’ve been looking to adopt a handsome, comical dog, stop in and meet me today!”
Taz is up for adoption from Lucy Mackenzie Humane Society, located at 4832 Route 44 in West Windsor and open to the public Tuesday through Saturday, 12-4 p.m. Lucy Mackenzie is also on Facebook and Twitter and can be reached at 802-484-5829.

Grady, adoptable from Upper Valley Humane Society
Meet Grady. This gorgeous 6-year-old gal has just that thing to keep you forever in love.
Grady came to us from a previous home where it seemed she was a little stressed out. A new puppy arrived, and Grady wasn’t a fan. Puppies can be loud, and unaware of personal space. Her family quickly noticed her stress.
Since her arrival at UVHS, we’ve learned a lot. Grady is as sweet as can be. Not being around such a wild puppy has made her more comfortable and confident. Grady loves to say hello, and is eager to greet you with head bumps.
Grady may be able to live with a dog, as long as the dog is laid-back and respectful of space. Cats seem to make her a little uncomfortable, so she wants to be the only cat in the house.
If you’d love to take this sweetie home, then come meet her today!
Grady is up for adoption from the Upper Valley Humane Society, located at 300 Old Route 10 in Enfield and open to the public Tuesday through Saturday, 11 a.m.-4 p.m. The Upper Valley Humane Society is also on Facebook and Instagram and can be reached at 603-448-6888.
