We take a lot of pictures and videos and don't always have the time to post them on the dogs individual webpage and adoption site, so we ask that you go to the rescue  YouTube channel  and  photo albums on our Facebook page  to see a LOT of pictures and videos.        SADIE-Sue is spayed rabies, core vaccines, heartworm/tick tested negative. She is on monthly prevention, microchipped, has an estimated date of birth of 28 February 2020 and at the time of transport weighed 9.10 pounds. We have no way of knowing what the actual breed is, so it is up to people to look at the pictures and video's to make up their own mind. Notes from Sadie Sue's foster family when she was in Texas, before coming to GaDaH in Maine. At the end of February, Chihuahua Rescue & Transport responded to a call to help with an emergency situation involving Chihuahuas located about two hours outside of Dallas. An elderly woman had passed away alone in her home. She had no family and left behind 15 Chihuahuas living in deplorable conditions in her backyard.  The Chihuahuas were filthy and covered with fleas. Each dog was bathed (including a flea bath), groomed and nails trimmed. It was likely the first bath they had ever had. Sadie Sue is one of the 15 Chihuahuas. She is heartworm negative, spayed and is estimated to be between 3- 5 years old. She is approximately 10 lbs, although she could lose a pound or two.  Sadie Sue was fed in a "communal environment" - and thus she does do not waste time eating. She is not food aggressive and will happily eat from the plates of other dogs. She will stop if told no. She is 95% potty trained, either going outside or using a puppy pad. Her infrequent misses are due to the puppy pad being dirty and not being able to go outside. Sadie has not gotten much time to learn how to walk on a leash.  Sadie Sue is an easy dog to love She is very friendly and more socialized that most "hoarder dogs". She does get spooked by fast movements. She will run away but comes back and never shows aggression. The tail wags non-stop. She loves giving kisses and cuddling. She wants to be in the room that you are in. If you glance in her direction, she will run up to you for head scratches and nuzzles. She is not a fan of being picked up or carried. She does not seem that interested in playing with toys as she likely did not have them growing up. If she has another dog to show her how fun toys are, she may change her mind. She does like being with other dogs and will snuggle with them but she does not need a dog buddy. She has only ever been around small dogs. I am not sure how she is with large dogs.  SADIE-Sue is available for adoption from Give a Dog a Home Rescue in Sebec, Maine for an adoption fee of $550.          This adoption fee covers the cost of running a brick and mortar rescue as well as any transport, veterinary, food,     treats, toys costs and the many expenses that rescues endure to keep the pets in their care safe, and happy.       Be sure to read all the information and if interested, go to the rescue website to submit an adoption application. https://www.giveadogahome-rescue.org/forms/form?formid=5838 The rescue buys food in bulk, by the truck load and there are a variety of brands and flavors.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. GOMEZ was abandoned outside the rescue gate at the top of the drive, near the road in a crate with no water, during black fly season with a bag of pedigree dog food on 8th May 2023. I do not know how long this poor boy was left there as I only discovered him by the dogs constantly barking. He has been posted in all the community Facebook groups to try to find his previous owners so that we can obtain information, such as his name, his medical records (if he had any), his favourite toys, treats and any other information that would help us with this sweet boy. The local veterinarians were also contacted, but we have yet to have any information. GOMEZ was clearly scared and his ears were badly bitten by the black flies, he was shaking when I took him out of the crate, but very friendly, clearly craving affection.  GOMEZ is neutered, rabies, core vaccines, heartworm/tick tested negative. He is on monthly prevention, microchipped, we do not know his age, but he is in the 10 year plus senior age range. He weighs around 10 pounds and does need to lose a few of those pounds. We have no way of knowing what the actual breed is, so it is up to people to look at the pictures and video's to make up their own mind. GOMEZ has had an in-depth blood/chemistry and stool panel run and has been diagnosed as having "hypothyroidism" and so will require medications for the rest of his life. The positive side is this is a very manageable disorder and medications are relatively inexpensive. This could also be the reason as to why he has some extra weight. Hypothyroidism cannot be cured, but it can be managed through thyroid medication. Dogs with this disorder are prescribed a thyroid hormone replacement called thyroxine that will need to be given for the rest of the dog's life. Follow-up blood tests can help ensure the dog is receiving the right dosage of the medication to regulate thyroid hormone levels properly GOMEZ has also been diagnosed with dental disease and does have stinky breathe, which is to be expected in a small dog of his age. He is scheduled for a dental cleaning and extraction in September and this appointment can be transferred over to his new pet parents. Potential adopters should be aware that dental cleaning/extractions can cost anything from $400-$900 depending on the number of extractions needed. His medical records are posted on his page on the website, including his blood/chemistry/stool results. GOMEZ has been living in the kennels with the other small dogs and at first was nervous, but with the help of his Chihuahua friend Sadie Sue he has settled in great and does enjoy snuggling with her. He enjoys soft treats and has not shown any interest in toys, but he is still decompressing and trying to understand what has happened to him. He is extremely affectionate, he loves human company and rides great in the car, enjoying to stand and look out of the window.  He is good with other dogs and on a ride to the vets had no problems letting big Great Pyrenees, Baba Ganoush, whose head was as big as Gomez, to get out of his space. GOMEZ is available for adoption from Give a Dog a Home Rescue in Sebec, Maine for an adoption fee of $550.        This adoption fee covers the cost of running a brick and mortar rescue as well as any transport, veterinary care, food,     treats, toys costs and the many expenses that rescues endure to keep the pets in their care safe, and happy.       Be sure to read all the information and if interested, go to the rescue website to submit an adoption application. https://www.giveadogahome-rescue.org/forms/form?formid=5838 We take a lot of pictures and videos and don't always have the time to post them on the dogs individual webpage and adoption site, so we ask that you go to the rescue   YouTube channel   and   photo albums on our Facebook page   to see a LOT of pictures and videos.

AJ is located in TEXAS. There are not enough homes for all the unwanted dogs down here, so he is willing to relocate for a good, loving, forever home. X-Rays show that AJ has back problems and needs a daily anti-inflammatory (Meloxidyl). He needs this medication every day. He also needs dog steps to get on and off furniture and a bit of care when he is picked up to avoid hurting his back. Applicants must be able to afford his medication (which is not expensive) and be able to take him to the vet as needed. AJ was an owner surrender. The son fell on hard times and left AJ with his parents. The parents wanted to rehome him because they had financial problems of their own and because he was not housetrained. However, we have not had any problems with him going potty in the house. He goes to the door when he wants out. AJ is a very handsome chihuahua weighing 10 pounds. He is an older guy, maybe around 8 years of age. AJ is a very good boy and not a stereotypical chihuahua. He is wary of new people but warms up with time. AJ is crate-trained and well-behaved in the house. He rides well in the vehicle, walks well on a leash, and comes when called. AJ is fairly quiet, he only barks when he wants to come back in the house after he goes outside. He spends most of his time lying on the couch or in his bed. He does like treats. And we think he was playing a little bit with our poodle. He does get bossy and will try to dominate the larger male dogs. One of our large males did get mad at him and cuffed him to put him in his place. So we would recommend that he not be allowed to interact with larger dogs that might hurt him. AJ is fine with other small dogs and would probably also do well with cats. AJ is small and delicate and must be protected from rough treatment by children or big dogs that could hurt him. He must also be protected from raptors and other outdoor predators. AJ must be in the house as a loved member of the family. He must be walked on a leash and would like a fenced yard to run and play. AJ is healthy. He is neutered, fully vaccinated (DAPPvL2, Bordatella, rabies), and microchipped. AJ is heartworm negative and on monthly heartworm and flea prevention. He had a dental and his 4 upper incisors had to be removed. The rest of his teeth were in good shape. We would really love AJ to have a fabulous forever home. His adoption fee covers the cost of ground transport to Warren NJ, Allentown PA, or Nanuet NY. He is being fostered in Texas and we do not have the resources to send him north until after he is adopted. Please fill out our online application at https://www.2manydogsrescue.org/adoption-application.html if you are interested in adopting this wonderful boy.
