Story

Meet Acadia 💛 Acadia is an 8-month-old Catahoula mix making her way north from the South in search of the loving forever family she deserves. She weighs approximately 40 lbs and is the perfect mix of playful puppy energy and sweet cuddle bug. Acadia loves other dogs, does wonderful with kids, and even gets along great with cats. She is both housebroken and crate trained, making her an easy addition to the right home. Despite her young age, Acadia has already endured more than any dog should. At some point in her life, this sweet girl was shot. A bullet remains lodged under the skin near her throat, but after evaluation, the vet determined it is surrounded by scar tissue, is not causing her pain or discomfort, and does not need to be removed at this time. What’s truly incredible about Acadia is that none of her past has dimmed her spirit. She is still loving, trusting, affectionate, and full of joy. She greets life with a wagging tail, a happy heart, and so much love to give. Acadia is ready to leave her past behind and finally experience what it means to be safe, cherished, and part of a family who will love her forever. This beautiful girl deserves the happiest ending. 🐾

Noah

Chihuahua

Male, 6 yrs 1 mo

Augusta, ME

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Story

Meet Noah!Noah can be very nervous at first and it might take him a little bit to warm up to you but once he does, he will jump right into your lap for some attention. Noah loves to be outside but does not like the idea of a leash at all (he is slowly starting to get the hang of it though). He just likes to walk around the yard at his own pace most of the time just following his person around and laying in the sun! Since he is so nervous we are recommending no kids under 18 years of age. Noah would do best in a home where he is the only animal and can have all the treats and attention so no other dogs or cats please!Interested in meeting Noah come down to KVHS to meet him!

Terry

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, 2 yrs 5 mos

Augusta, ME

Size

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

Details

Story

Meet Terry, Terry is a goofball who loves butt scratches, rolling in the grass, and occasionally yanking his handler around on leash. He know `sit,` `come,` and `shake` and will consider showing these skills off for a treat or two. He gets along with all other animals, but may be choosy when it comes to male dogs. Terry does not have an age restriction, but depending on the family he goes home with, children should be prepared to be knocked down a few times. Terry says it builds character! Terry is looking for a family who is home more of the time as he can get stressed when his people are away. If you are interested in this sturdy silly dude, please stop by KVHS with all human and canine family members.

He enjoys his treats soft and his dry food with wet. He responds well to his name, knows sit, and enjoys being with people above all else!Thanos is looking for a home without livestock (Specifically chickens). He hasn`t previously lived with cats, so he`d either need someone dedicated to proper introductions or no kitties!
