Story

Meet Kaiser — One of a Kind and Looking for His People Kaiser is a bully mix who came to us a little over a year ago when his family`s housing situation changed and they could no longer maintain his care. When he first arrived, Kaiser was a sensitive, uncertain dog who took his time deciding who he could trust. Over the past year, we`ve had the privilege of watching him grow, and the transformation has been incredible. Kaiser has a personality all his own—he`s thoughtful, expressive, and approaches relationships on his terms. In recent months, he has started making new friends—both human and canine—and continues to show us just how much potential he has when given patience and understanding.Kaiser is looking for a home that appreciates his unique personality and understands that meaningful relationships take time to build. He thrives with people who respect his boundaries, allow him space when he needs it, and celebrate the small victories along the way. One of Kaiser`s proudest accomplishments has been becoming one of our helper dogs during playgroups, where he now helps other dogs learn appropriate social skills and build confidence. It`s a role that speaks volumes about how far he has come. To help set him up for success, Kaiser`s adoption includes four training sessions with our behaviorist as well as a $250 training credit with one of our recommended trainers. Kaiser isn`t looking for just any home—he`s looking for people who will embrace him for exactly who he is and continue helping him grow. In return, they`ll gain a loyal, intelligent companion whose trust is truly something special. Behavior and personality assessment is based on information provided by previous owner(s) and/or observations in a shelter environment and may not accurately reflect the pet`s behavior in your home.

Story

Meet Duke!Weight: 87 lbs Large and in charge Mr. Duke is ready to find his match, Duke made his way to us due to no fault of his own and is such a good boy! Duke is looking for an active household, one that wants a canine friend to tag along on all the outside adventures. Duke can be a little nervous at first but quickly warms up and is very food motivated. Duke knows sit, paw and down and walks great on leash. A home outside of city limits and in a more quiet rural-like area would be best for Mr. Duke! Duke has lived with other dogs before and did well and we`d want him to meet all canine siblings prior to going home, he`s also lived with felines (1-2) before and chickens (that were couped up) and did fine. Duke would be best fit with teenagers and in a lower foot traffic household, our staff will be happy to discuss introductions with Duke and feline/canine friends in home, to help set everyone up for success! Duke looks forward to meeting you!

Eugene Harold Krabs

Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 12 yrs

Lewiston, ME

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Story

Meet Eugene Harold Krabs — A Gentle Old Soul Looking for a Soft Place to Land Eugene Harold Krabs arrived at the shelter as a stray, and while we don`t know much about his life before coming to us, he has quickly won over everyone here with his calm, peaceful nature. This distinguished gentleman takes life one day at a time and seems happiest when he`s receiving affection from the people around him. Whether it`s a gentle scratch behind the ears or simply spending quiet time together, Eugene is always appreciative of a little kindness and attention.Because he came to us as a stray, we don`t know his history with children, cats, or other dogs. So far, he has shown little interest in the dogs he`s met and appears content focusing on his human companions. Eugene also arrived with a minor facial injury that is healing well and doesn`t stop him from enjoying life. He is looking for a loving home where he can enjoy the comforts he deserves—soft beds, leisurely strolls, plenty of affection, and a peaceful place to call his own. If you`re looking for a sweet senior companion with a gentle heart and an appreciation for the simple things in life, Eugene Harold Krabs may be the perfect match.

Magnolia

Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, 3 yrs 5 mos

Lewiston, ME

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Story

Meet Mags — The Soft-Hearted Girl Looking for Her Person Mags, short for Magnolia, first came to us over a year ago as a devoted mama raising a litter of puppies. Since then, she has watched many dogs come and go while she continues her search for the right home. Mags has been adopted twice, but both homes ultimately weren`t the right fit for her sensitive nature. This sweet bully mix isn`t looking to be everyone`s best friend—and that`s okay. Mags is a thoughtful, emotional girl who takes her time building trust, but when she chooses you, the bond she creates is something truly special. Her favorite love language? Cheese. Lots of cheese. Along with patience, understanding, and letting her move at her own pace.Mags is looking for a home that can provide the calm, peace, and routine she craves. She thrives when life is predictable and when the people around her respect her boundaries and listen to what she`s telling them. After spending more than a year in the shelter, she has completely won over the staff and volunteers who know her best. We`ve seen her silly side, her affectionate side, and the deep loyalty she gives to the people she trusts. To help set her up for success, Mags` adoption includes training classes with our behaviorist. She doesn`t need a perfect family—she just needs the right one. Someone willing to give her the opportunity she`s been waiting for: a real home, a steady routine, and people who love her for exactly who she is. Behavior and personality assessment is based on information provided by previous owner(s) and/or observations in a shelter environment and may not accurately reflect the pet`s behavior in your home.

Story

Meet Diesel — Big Head, Bigger Heart Diesel is an XL mixed-breed dog looking for a home that appreciates the finer things in life—like a giant blocky head, a lovable personality, and enough drool to keep a towel company in business. This handsome giant came to us after his previous family unexpectedly gained custody of him and wasn`t able to take on the long-term commitment of caring for such a large dog. Despite the changes in his life, Diesel has remained a friendly, easygoing companion who is ready to find a family to share his oversized love with.Diesel has experience with just about everyone. He has met cats, dogs, and even chickens and has done well with them. He has also lived with children, though like many extra-large dogs, he doesn`t always realize just how much dog he is and may accidentally bump into people when he`s excited. Diesel is looking for a home that can provide him with love, companionship, and plenty of room to stretch out his long legs. If you`ve ever dreamed of sharing your couch, your heart, and possibly your personal space with a gentle giant, Diesel is ready to bring his goofy charm, impressive head size, and endless affection into your life. Behavior and personality assessment is based on information provided by previous owner(s) and/or observations in a shelter environment and may not accurately reflect the pet`s behavior in your home.

Story

Meet Betsy — A Golden Girl Ready to Be Your Queen Betsy is a senior dog looking for a quiet, loving home where she can enjoy her days soaking up sunshine and lounging in all her favorite cozy spots. She came to us from a loving home that could no longer keep up with her needs as she’s gotten older. Betsy enjoys a peaceful lifestyle and is happiest when she can relax and be close to her people. She does like children, but she can struggle with resource guarding at times, which is important to keep in mind when getting to know her. Betsy is currently in foster care, where she’s receiving extra love and comfort while waiting for her perfect retirement home.Betsy would do best in a home where she can be the only pet and truly rule her castle. A calm environment with an adopter who understands her quirks and can meet her needs will help her feel safe and comfortable. Providing her with routine, respect for her space, and plenty of cozy places to rest will allow her to thrive. With the right match, Betsy is ready to be a loyal, loving companion who enjoys the simple pleasures of life.
