The purpose of the Baypath Humane Society
is to facilitate the placement of stray
and unwanted animals and pets in
desirable homes; to establish and maintain
an animal shelter and associated procedures
which promote the health, care and
adoption of these animals;
and to educate adopters and the local public
on proper pet care and handling,
over population and the
prevention of cruelty to animals.
Beaks and Noses is not a shelter,
but a rescue, which means all our birds
and dogs are in a home environment.
All our dogs are fully vetted including spay
or neuter prior to adoption.
We have an Avian Vet that comes to my
home periodically to examine our parrots.
We do charge a small donation for the
animals which goes right back into their
food, housing and vet bills.
We also accept peoples pets
who they can no longer keep.

Founded in 1989,
the People for Animals League
is a private, non-profit organization
dedicated to helping animals in
local communities.
We are striving to develop empathy
and compassion, increase understanding,
and promote responsibility toward animals.
We coordinate the placement of pets into
appropriate homes, provide humane
educational programs to the community,
assist with lost and found pets,
and encourage spaying and neutering
of animals to control population.
We are an independent rescue group
out of Massachusetts.
We rescue dogs from area high kill shelters
and or private owners and
give them another chance at life.
We are not a shelter,
we foster dogs in private homes.
We will adopt out to surrounding states,
including Massachusetts, Rhode Island,
Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire,
Vermont, & New York.
Under the direction of Animal Control Officer,
Liz Botelho, the Swansea Animal Shelter
provides care and shelter to an annual census of
175 - 200 stray and lost animals per year.
Happily, 85-90% of these animals were returned
to their owners or found
new safe and loving homes!
With the aid of volunteers and the
Animal Control team, the little "extras"
of home are provided.
Daily walks, socialization, treats
and even car rides help make the time spent
at the shelter more comfortable for residents.
Dedicated to the belief that all life has value,
the Swansea Animal Shelter looks forward to
providing a safe and caring environment for all
that pass through its doors.
Underdog ResQ is an all-volunteer non-profit
charitable 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to the
rescue of homeless shelter dogs and matching
each dog with appropriate and responsible owners.
Many animal shelters have time, space
and breed limitations and are
forced to euthanize adoptable dogs.
Underdog ResQ was created to
save some of these dogs.
Each dog that we accept into our group
first goes through a behavioral evaluation.
Once we accept a dog into our organization,
we ensure that he receives
health care prior to placement.
Underdog ResQ cares for our dogs
through a foster home network.
Each foster parent cares for their foster dog
until a permanent family is found.
Our goal is to match each dog’s personality and
needs with the needs of the applicant.
United Yorkie Rescue, Inc.
was founded on August 5, 2002,
by a group of loyal and hard-working

We consolidated our efforts and talents
to form a family dedicated to the rescue and
well being of the Yorkshire Terrier.
We have pledged to rescue all Yorkies and
Yorkie mixes in need regardless of
size, age, or health condition.
In addition, we are devoted to providing
love, nourishment, rehabilitation, socialization,
and "pawesome" forever homes!!
