Buddy’s soulful eyes tell a story and as each day passes, his quiet bravery grows a little more. At just 2-1/2 years old, he is learning the world isn’t as scary as it once was. Buddy is waiting for a home that will help him continue his journey of trust and to accept patience, compassion and a life filled with love.

Given gentle guidance and positive reinforcement when things feel uncertain, you will see his confidence blossom. Buddy’s trust is something special and earning it truly feels like a gift. Once he feels safe, you will see him soften and relax, letting his curious, affectionate and quietly playful personality shine.
If you find joy in supporting a dog discover the world can be a kind, safe place, Buddy will reward you with a deep bond, gentle love, and the pride of watching him become who he’s meant to be.

More about this shelter
After 35 years, our organization is now officially known as Pope Memorial Humane Society. Though we have a new name, logo, and facility, it is important to keep in mind that we are the same organization at our core. Our staff, volunteers, and operations remain the same, as does our unfailing commitment to saving the lives of animals in need. We will continue to serve Strafford County and the surrounding areas of New Hampshire and southern Maine with the same dedication. Though we are proud of the growth and impact we have made in the last 35 years as Cocheco Valley Humane Society, we look forward to this new chapter in our organization’s story.
