Story
Come visit me at PAW - Adoption fee $390 - I'm Roco. I am a little old man who is hoping to find a quiet, low energy household to live out my golden years. I enjoy going for short walks but after a few minutes I start day dreaming about my comfy bed at home in front of the heater. I have been taught a thing or two in my younger years like sit, down, and even roll over! I wouldn't mind sharing my space with calm dogs or cats who are at the same pace as me. Like lights out by 9pm, dinner at 4. I do require regular grooming. This coat isn't going to upkeep itself, but a professional groomer would be the best idea. I am not a big fan of handling and I hear they have the tools and treats to keep me calm. As long as you're respectful of me, I will be respectful of you! I am looking forward to my new life cuddled up in bed with you. Roco would do best in a family with older kids.

Story
Come visit me at PAW - Adoption fee $390 - Hi, I'm Wumbo! With my straggly hair, I look like a Wumbo for sure. I am a delight to be around and I have made so many friends so far being here. Friends are fantastic and all, but I can't wait to find my family. I am the bestest boy (according to the staff at PAW) because I know sit, shake, and paw! I can even walk nicely on a leash. I am a big fan of going for walks, and spending time with people. I will even make friends with dogs, cats, and kids if I have to! I will need the proper, slow introduction for sure however. I am not a guy that is super interested in toys, but I do enjoy a good treat every once in a while. While I look fabulous in my new haircut, I will need regular brushing and grooming, because my coat grows long and shaggy. I am a couch potato for the most part so if you like to just hang out and watch streaming services I'm the guy for you! I love reality TV too.. did you hear the new Love Is Blind season is on Netflix? But don't mention the fact Leo has money... even though that is all he talks about. *Rolls eyes*

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. KELLER was saved from a kill shelter in Louisiana and arrived at Give a Dog a Home Rescue, in Sebec, Maine on 10 October 2023.  We post in east coast states and Canada as we have many families adopt and are happy to make the worthwhile trip up to the rescue. We do not always have time to post all the pictures on each dogs individual page, but we do post a lot of photo's on the rescue Facebook page. KELLER is neutered, rabies, core vaccines, monthly preventatives, heartworm and tick disease tested negative and is microchipped with 24PetWatch.He has an estimated date of birth of May 2023 and on 26 October 2023 weighed around 60 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. KELLER is a big, affectionate love bug who cannot look at anyone without waggling his bum which wags his body.  He loves to play and charge around with his other dogs friends, but can be very calm and gentle with people.  He has been around adults of all ages, shapes and sizes, small children and people with special needs and was gentle and loving.  He is responsive and can be a little shy on occasions, he has been out on adventures and came on our December outing to Bissell Brothers Brewery where he had a great time. He does need an active family who will ensure he gets all the exercise, both mentally and physically that he needs to live a happy fulfilling life. 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. KELLER is located at the rescue in Sebec Maine and is available for a  reduced adoption  fee of $50. 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 - As the dogs are in the kennels, we are not able to say how they are with cats.

Story
Come visit me at PAW!Adoption Fee: $390I'm Bear! A tiny German Shepherd mix with pep in his step! I'm just a young buck at 10 months old, so I'm still full of energy and potential. I already know "sit" and "drop it", so you know I'm a clever boy. I'm very food motivated which is handy for training and making friends! If you give me a treat, consider yourself my new bestie. I don't care to be restrained, but I am fine to have my feet touched. I do well for nail trims, just have me sit and I can be a very well behaved boy. I would like to be the only pet in your household. I do NOT get along with other dogs, they're too scary so I feel the need to defend myself. Cats are also a big no - my prey drive tells me to chase and grab, so I wouldn't do well in a home with kitties. I love exercise and long walks. If I sound like the ideal hiking partner for you, then swing by the shelter for a visit!

Story
Come visit me at PAW - Adoption fee $390 - I'm Zada! I am a goofy 8 month old girl who enjoys meeting new folks! I am a big fan of playing, running, jumping, and toys! I was unfortunately surrendered because me being 8 months old and didn't know any better, I swallowed a toy. I had to go for a surgery to have that removed. Apparently surgeries cost a lot of dollars? That's what the humans say. So now I am on the hunt for a new family that will supervise me while playing, and get some toys that are ''Zada proof'' Like all puppies I will need to learn some manners, obedience, and cues. I am at the awkward teenage stage where I am unsure how to control my limbs. I gallop like a horse that was just born. I am a good candidate for almost any household! I do well with kids, cats, and other dogs! Hopefully that will help me find my home sooner. I cannot wait to meet you and show you how fun-loving and goofy I can be!
