Robin, adoptable from Lucy Mackenzie Humane Society
“Hi! My name’s Robin and I’m a 4-year-old neutered male mixed-breed dog that came to Lucy Mackenzie as a stray.
“Life hasn’t always been easy for me, but I’m looking forward to starting over in my new home. I’m a fun-loving active fella that has tons of potential, and lots of love to give!
“Since I’ve been here, we’ve spent lots of time working on basic behaviors, like how to walk on a leash, how to sit and stay. I’ve come such a long way!
“I’d be the only animal in my ideal home, and my human would be committed toward continuing my training with me. It would also be nice if I wasn’t left alone for long amounts of time, as I’m much happier when I’m around my people.
“All I really need in life is a second chance. If you’ve been looking for a new best friend, stop in and meet me today!”
(Robin 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.)

Jamie and Jody, adoptable from Upper Valley Humane Society
“Howdy! We’re Jamie and Jody, two 5-month-old male rabbits.
“We are a sweet as can be, and love spending time with our human friends! We enjoy playing with our toys, munching on snacks and bopping around our pen.
“We’ve met other rabbits here at the shelter and seem to enjoy their company, although sometimes we can be a little picky about our rabbits friends. We don't like party poopers!
“We are best friends forever, so we need to go home together. If you think you’d like two fun buns in your life, then come see us today!”
(Jamie and Jody are 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.)
