Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Worcester, Massachusetts

Artemis is a 5 years, 1 month old female Terrier/Mix who weighs 11 pounds.

Artemis is a sensitive terrier/poodle mix who is learning that the world can be a safe and gentle place. She arrived at the shelter as a stray in need of care for her skin, and while she is feeling much better now, she is still rocking a bit of a silly haircut that only adds to her charm.

Artemis can be very shy at first and may bark when meeting new people. She does best with those who give her space and allow her to approach on her own terms. Once she feels safe, her sweet and thoughtful personality begins to shine.

She is looking for a quiet, adult only home that will appreciate her for who she is and continue to build her confidence. Artemis may enjoy living with another calm dog. She will need regular grooming and may require ongoing allergy medication to keep her comfortable.

If you are interested in adopting Artemis, please come to the shelter on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 12-4pm.
