Here Are Boston’s Puppies in Honor of National Puppy Day

Some days, you just want to look at pictures of puppies on the Internet. And if you’re someone who agrees with that sentiment, today is your lucky day. It’s National Puppy Day, which for mysterious reasons does not seem to involve a day off from work. In honor of this momentous holiday, here are a bunch of pictures of Boston’s puppies. And if you’d like to do more than just look at puppies, might we suggest a visit or a donation to the MSPCA or the Animal Rescue League? Just a thought.

These sweet little fluff balls have been in foster care for several weeks after coming to us from a home with many, many animals. They are almost 7 weeks old and they’ll be ready for new homes next weekend! If you’d be interested in adopting, stop by the adoption center this weekend to fill out an application! #MSPCA #mspcaboston #puppy #pekingese #adopt
