Wanted to address this: We are not using Petfinder any longer. Petfinder for some reason changed there web site program to make it faster and efficient, well its anything but that. ( the older version web site is the same as this new version ?? who knows)

On our Massachusetts Humane Society web site we have a page that says "adopted happy paws" animals that were adopted out and that link was connected to the petfinder site with the link "available to adopt" as well. However Petfinder has LOST ALL OF OUR OLDER PICTURES OF ANIMALS that we had on that page and adopted through out the years and looks like they lost them and cannot be recovered.!! ugh .....

( we are NOT the only animal shelter/Orgranization that has had terrible experiences with this new system and petfinder) That being said we do not want to take any more chances posting animals and other info on petfinder. That being said we will seek out other resources and as I say if its not broken don't fix it.
Thank You for your attention to this, and moving forward.
