Please Adopt Us

The Animal Shelter of Martha’s Vineyard has three dogs and four cats available for adoption. The dogs include Vito and Louie, the gentle beagles who need some training but will make good pets or hunters with some work. The other dog is P.J., a very gentle, good-natured female pit bull. Don’t let the fact that she is a pit bull deter you from coming to see her; she is one of the sweetest dogs we have ever had at the shelter and she loves people.
