Story
Riley, thought to be born in January or February of 2015 is a tricolor, smooth coat collie/border collie mix with some brindle markings on his legs. He has experienced 2 failed adoptions. He was adopted from us when he was about 6 months old and was returned to us 3 years later when the male member of the adoptive family, who had Alzheimer’s, became abusive toward him. In time he began developing his self-confidence again and began to lose his fear of men. Even though he was still somewhat leery of men he didn’t know, he would actually seek attention from men with whom he was familiar. He got along well with the dogs in his foster home but he behaved aggressively toward any new foster dog that periodically come in. He is not good with cats as he showed aggression toward the clinic cat at our vet’s office. Riley was adopted a second time, but after a year of trying different techniques to manage Riley’s difficult behaviors his second adopter felt that she could no longer handle him and once again Riley was returned to us. He left us weighing 55 pounds and returned, markedly overweight, at 78 pounds. He is now back to a healthy weight. Riley has had extensive training. He is quite smart and learns quickly. He rides well in a car and walks well on a leash unless he meets a dog while out on the walk, in which case he will pull and act aggressively. Riley is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, is heartworm negative and is being kept on heartworm and flea and tick prevention to maintain his good health. Riley is currently in Arkansas. His adoption donation is $415 which includes the $165 transport fee. If you would like to adopt Riley, the first step in the adoption process is to fill out an online adoption application. You can find a copy of that application here. We sometimes receive a lot of interest on an animal and can't always reply to each email in a timely manner. An application does not obligate you to adopt from us, but it does show that you are serious about the adoption process. Please remember we are all volunteers. After you submit your application, please allow a few days for a volunteer to review your application. During this time your vet reference will be checked and a volunteer with determine if it is the best match for you and the animal. Applications are not approved on a first come, first serve basis. We match up the best home for the animal, so even if the pet has other applications, this does not mean he/she will be adopted to that home. Once your application has been approved a volunteer with contact you to set up a phone interview. This is the perfect time for you to ask any questions you have about the adoption process and the animal you are interested in

Story
Meet Zuko, the charming collie mix who has brought immeasurable joy to my life as a pandemic puppy. However, due to the demands of my new job, I sadly find myself unable to provide him with the life he truly deserves. At 4 and 55 lbs, Zuko is a handsome and affectionate companion. He was rescued from Texas and is already neutered and chipped. Zukos favorite pastimes include cuddling with his humans, gazing out the window, running at the beach, and going on hikes. If you want to witness pure joy, unleash Zuko at the beach and watch as he glances back at you with his tongue out in bewildered excitement before taking off. While he may not be the biggest fan of swimming or rain, he looks adorable in a raincoat and is always up for playtime in the snow. Zuko loves food. He's highly motivated by treats, especially frozen peanut butter. He gets along well with other dogs, but I am unsure about his compatibility with cats. He can be reactive, especially to strollers and e-scooters.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. MAGGIE-Pierce was saved from a kill shelter in Georgia and arrived at Give a Dog a Home Rescue, in Sebec, Maine on 5 April 2024.  Maggie-Pierce is spayed, rabies, core vaccines, monthly preventatives and is microchipped with 24PetWatch. She has an estimated date of birth of 4 November 2023 and in April 2024 weighed of 20 pounds. We have no way of knowing the breed, it is up to individuals to look at the pictures and videos to make up their own mind. This sweet girl is still a baby and so we are looking for families who understand how much work puppies are, who are able to ensure she gets all the socialization she needs, the training, routine and structure to give her the right start to her wonderful life ahead of her. Maggie-P is in a kennel with several other pups similar in age, some bigger, some smaller and she is having a great time playing and wrestling most of the day, when of course they are not snuggled up in a big puppy pile dreaming of their forever families and future lives full of adventure ahead of them. 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   t o see a LOT of pictures and videos. We are looking for families that have the lifestyle that the dog needs to lead a healthy, both mentally and physically life, who can afford a GOOD quality food, toys and treats and understand the importance of veterinary wellness checks. Maggie-Pierce is located at the rescue in Sebec Maine and is available for a  reduced adoption  fee of $550. Interested families are required to complete our application process and once approved schedule an appointment to come to the rescue to meet and take home their new best friend. Our process takes 1-2 days as long as we are able to talk to references, so be prepared to be approved (hopefully) to adopt within a few days of submitting the adoption application. https://giveadogahome-rescue.rescuegroups.org/forms/form?formid=5838 HOUSE TRAINED - All of our dogs are located in the kennel building so we are not able to say if a dog is house-trained, however, they do have access and use the dog door to access their run, play area 24/7. FOOD - We feed a variety of high quality brands and flavors including, chicken, turkey, beef, lamb and fish generally alternated daily. CATS - We do not have cats in the kennels and are not able to say how our dogs are with cats.

Well hello there, Ash! This adorable 4-month old, 26-pound (as of 1/10) Collie/Hound mix is a total sweetheart and mushier than a meatball! Ash is friendly and fun around humans and other dogs. He loves toys, but he loves living breathing creatures much more…especially in the form of playful pups. Ash is respectful around dogs of any age, even much older ones, and intuitively knows how to fit in. He’s just so happy to be in their company, and smart enough to get them to like him! Energetic and full of joy, Ash enjoys being able to fun freely and horse around outside. He’s currently learning the ins and outs of leash walking and getting better at it every single day. Ash is doing a great job of pottying outside, he uses his pee pads when necessary, and he’s comfortable in his crate. Yay, Ash! Ash has quickly learned the commands sit, down, stay and come. He is highly treat motivated and craves praise and approval. Who knows what amazing things this pupper will be able to accomplish! Ash travels with ease, he shares his toys, he loves to cuddle, and he even gives kisses. What can be better? Absolutely nothing!

Story
CAPE MAY, NJ: Light-hearted and lovely Leo has a smile that lights up a room, but this handsome fellow shines the brightest outdoors on an adventure with you! Leo is a 2 year old collie mix and weighs 50 lbs. Poor handsome Leo found himself abandoned at an overcrowded city shelter and he was truly terrified. He was rescued from euthanasia in December 2023 and has since resided in a loving foster home, where he has made such wonderful progress. With his fosters, he is loving, intelligent, and playful. Once he knows you, Leo is extremely affectionate and obedient. Everything makes him happy but he likes playing with chews, toys, and tugs the best. Just as any young active breed would be, Leo is exuberant, sometimes even excitable, so he will need an outlet for his energy. Leo would make a great outdoor buddy for someone who is active and/or has a large, fenced in yard. And he absolutely LOVES water! If it’s big enough to jump in, Leo surely will! This fun-loving guy loves being outdoors, bursting with happiness and light-heartedly prancing around. Because of his ruff start in life, Leonardo should really go to a home that has experience with his breed. Leo previously lived with 5 adults and 2 teenagers so he is not opposed to a lively house. Leo bonded very deeply to the children, as collie mixes are known to do. Leo is dog friendly and has been non-reactive to cats. He is neutered, house-trained, up to date on vaccines, micro chipped and ready for his forever home! If you can open your heart and home to the amazing Leo, please contact AmsterDog at 917-689-8414 or by e-mail at info@amsterdog.org. Please fill out an application to adopt Leo at AmsterDog.org. Thanks for caring about a pet in need!

Story
Excelsis is a beautiful Shepherd/Border Collie mix who is about 12 years old and 65 lbs, looking for her forever home. Celsie, as she is lovingly called at EHR, would be a great companion for a dog savvy owner. She needs a family that will work with her on manners. She is playful and energetic, but has a timid side around people she doesn't know. Celsie has learned "sit" and "off" and is currently working on leash manners. She is dog friendly but not good with cats. Celsie would do best in a home with adults who are willing to give her the one-on-one attention she has been waiting for. If you would like to meet this beautiful girl, please fill out an application and ask for Excelsis! If you cannot adopt her but would like to give her a foster home, please fill out a dog foster application!  April 23, 2024, 9:52 am

FOREVER HOME NEEDED!! Kubo came to us in 2020, and was adopted relatively quickly! Unfortunately, his owners could not handle Kubo and it led to them needing to return him. He was terrified upon being back at the kennel, a completely different dog than what had came to us originally. We found Kubo a wonderful foster home where he has been for 2 years! He never receives ANY interest We are now desperate. Kubo's foster is returning to work and will not have enough time to care for him. This poor boy needs his FOREVER home ASAP!!! Kubo is a very smart 5 year old cuddle bug. He LOVES to cuddle on his person and be around them. He has been undergoing training and has come such a long way. Kubo is good with other dogs but can be very vocal when seeing them outside which is part of what his training has consisted of. He would do amazing in a lower traffic home with adults/older teens If you are interested in Kubo, visit EHRDOGS.ORG and fill out an application for KUBOApril 23, 2024, 9:52 am
