Swipe to see this special transformation! ❤️
When Ray arrived at ARL, he had extreme, painful matting, limiting his mobility. Our vet team shaved Ray and tended to additional wounds, providing him with relief and comfort. Now Ray is happy and healthier, and ready to find his new home!
Ray is a social, friendly 4 year old who is looking to be your new little shadow. He loves making new friends and does well with dogs and cats. His favorite spot is curled up on your lap or simply just being anywhere his people are. He’s not a big fan of being alone and has no problem voicing that opinion, but he is working on becoming more comfortable with his own company! If Ray sounds like the perfect guy for you, come meet him at our Dedham Animal Care & Adoption Center (55 Anna’s Pl).
Your donation today makes lifesaving care possible for animals like Ray.
ARL is here to help and serve as a safety net for families facing difficult moments. When circumstances change and a family can no longer provide the care their pet needs, we step in with compassion and without judgment. We honor that trust by helping each animal heal and finding them a safe, healthy, and loving home.
