Story
Baloo is a 2.5 year old Australian Shepard looking for his Furever family due to the fact that he will not be allowed to move with his owner to the new apartment she’s moving to. Baloo is a bit nervous and will need to be introduced to new people slowly. He’s a herding dog so he is a very active breed and will need a family to help keep him sufficiently exercised and entertained. He is a very smart dog as well and he loves being around other dogs! He is more nervous around men so he will need more work to get used to them, but with the proper introduction and time, he will be enjoying playtime and cuddles in no time! He’s afraid of loud noises so he will need a calm household without any children. He would love a home with a family that want to take him on adventures and to meet new doggy friends! Baloo is very affectionate, silly and sweet. He will make an awesome dog to a home that will be mentally and physically stimulating him as much as possible, and will make him a part of weekend plans. Sometimes a dog takes a little more time to open up, you may see them showing more and more of their personality over the course of the first few days, weeks or even months! We don’t know all that they’ve been through before they were rescued, but they are so forgiving and full of love and it’s worth every tough moment in the end. Developing a trusting relationship with your rescue dog is the most important thing. Stability, patience, positive reinforcement and love are the most important things! Baloo is vaccinated, microchipped and sterilized and will come with his medical booklet. Baloo est un berger australien de 2,5 ans à la recherche de sa famille Furever car il ne sera pas autorisé à déménager avec sa propriétaire dans le nouvel appartement dans lequel elle emménage. Baloo est un peu nerveux et devra être présenté lentement à de nouvelles personnes. C’est un chien de berger, c’est donc une race très active et aura besoin d’une famille pour l’aider à rester suffisamment exercé et diverti. C'est aussi un chien très intelligent, il adore être avec d'autres chiens ! Il est plus nerveux avec les hommes, il lui faudra donc plus de travail pour s'habituer à eux, mais avec une introduction et du temps appropriés, il appréciera les jeux et les câlins en un rien de temps ! Il a peur des bruits forts et aura donc besoin d’un foyer calme et sans enfants. Il adorerait une maison avec une famille qui veut l'emmener dans des aventures et rencontrer de nouveaux amis chiens ! Baloo est très affectueux, idiot et doux. Il fera un chien génial dans un foyer qui le stimulera mentalement et physiquement autant que possible et le fera participer aux projets du week-end. Parfois un chien met un peu plus de temps à s'ouvrir, vous le verrez peut-être montrer de plus en plus sa personnalité au cours des premiers jours, semaines voire mois ! Nous ne savons pas tout ce qu’ils ont vécu avant d’être secourus, mais ils sont tellement indulgents et pleins d’amour et chaque moment difficile en vaut finalement la peine. Développer une relation de confiance avec votre chien de sauvetage est la chose la plus importante. La stabilité, la patience, le renforcement positif et l’amour sont les choses les plus importantes ! Baloo est vacciné, pucé et stérilisé et sera accompagné de son livret médical.

Story
Je m'appelle Puggy et je suis un gentil petit chien âgé. Ma famille d'accueil m'aime beaucoup et ne se sépare de moi que parce qu'elle doit le faire.Ils ont dit à la SPCA beaucoup de choses sur moi et sur la façon dont je suis dans leur foyer, alors attachez-vous pour découvrir si je suis la bonne chien pour vous.Quand je suis heureux, j'aime accueillir mes humains avec de doux sauts et de grands étirements (vous savez ce que c'est). J'aime beaucoup travailler pour obtenir mes friandises lorsqu'elles sont sous forme de puzzle, ce qui est excellent pour ma santé mentale! Je suis également très doué pour apprendre de nouveaux tours. Je ne suis pas trop timide avec les étrangers, en fait j'adore établir un contact visuel avec eux dans la rue! J'apprends encore à être plus à l'aise lorsque je rencontre des chiens dans la rue. Je suis aussi un bon communicateur, j'aime incliner la tête quand on me parle. J'aime particulièrement le mot "treat", car je suis très motivé par la nourriture.Je n'aime pas que les gens me prennent dans leurs bras ou m'embrassent sur tout le visage, mais il faut s'y attendre car je suis un petit gars dans un grand monde! J'adore faire des caresses à mes humains et m'allonger sur leurs genoux, ou directement à côté d'eux. J'aime particulièrement les caresses sur le ventre. Quand j'aime tellement quelqu'un, je peux devenir protecteur envers lui, mais avec du travail et de la patience, c'est facilement gérable. Je préfère me coucher à 19 heures et je suis le plus actif à 7 heures du matin. Après 19 heures, vous pouvez vous attendre à ce que mon attitude change légèrement parce que mon heure de coucher est passée. Il se peut que je grogne un peu si vous me dérangez ou que j'aboie si j'entends des bruits étrangers, car je veux juste me reposer. Dans la maison, j'aime investiguer et me mêler de tout ! J'adore faire de longues promenades avec mes humains. Je sais même ce que signifie "wait" et "go" pendant les promenades et les repas, je suis si intelligente!Pas d'enfants pour moi s'il vous plaît, car j'ai besoin d'un environnement calme sans trop de bruits forts. Ma famille d'accueil n'est pas sûre de savoir comment je me comporterais dans un foyer avec d'autres animaux et elle soupçonne que je préférerais être le roi du château et le seul animal du foyer. Je ne suis pas un chien facile à connaître au début, mais une fois que vous aurez compris ce dont j'ai besoin au jour le jour, je vous récompenserai en étant un compagnon extraordinaire! Je suis excentrique, intelligent et plein de peps!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------My name is Puggy and I am a sweet little senior dog. My foster family loves me dearly and is only separating from me because they have too! They have told the SPCA quite a lot about me and how I am in their home, so buckle up to find out if I am the right match for you! When I am happy, I love to greet my people with gentle jumps and big stretches (you know the kind). I really love working for my treats when they are in a puzzle and this is great for my mental health! I am also very good at learning new tricks. I am not too shy with strangers, in fact I love making eye contact with them on the street! I am still learning to be more comfortable when I meet dogs on the street though. I am a good communicator too, I love tilting my head when people speak to me. I especially love the word ‘treat' as I am very food motivated.I don't love when people hug me or kiss me all over my face, but that is to be expected as a little dude in a big world! I do love cuddling my humans and lying on their lap, as well as directly next to them. I especially love belly rubs. When I love someone so much, I can become protective of them but with work and patience, this can be easily manageable. My preferred bedtime is 7pm and my most active is 7am. After 7pm, you can expect my attitude to change slightly because it's past my bedtime! I may growl a little bit if you disturb me or bark if I hear foreign noises because I just want to relax. In the house, I like to investigate and be involved in everything! I adore going for long walks with my humans. I even know what ‘wait' and ‘go' means on walks and during mealtimes, I'm that smart!No children for me please, as I need a calm environment without too many loud noises. My foster family is not sure how I would be in a home with other animals and they suspect that I would prefer being the king of the castle and the only animal in the home. I am not an easy dog to get to know at first but once you understand what I need in my day to day, I will reward you by being an amazing companion! I am quirky, smart and so full of spunk!

Story
Sirius est un vrai nounours à la recherche d'une famille qui saura comprendre son grand cœur et lui offrir un chez soi paisible et aimant. Il peut être indépendant et réservé au début, mais une fois qu'il a pris confiance, il est un merveilleux compagnon. Aller marcher est une de ses activités favorites et même si à son âge il a de l'arthrose, il adore toujours les petites promenades, surtout quand il ne fait pas trop chaud!D'ailleurs, il ne laisse pas n'importe qui toucher sa belle fourrure au premier abord, mais il apprécie un bon brossage et avec le temps aime beaucoup se faire flatter et gratouiller.À la maison il est plutôt tranquille et curieux, il aime suivre et garder un œil sur les gens, regarder par la fenêtre et profiter de se reposer. Il a grandi avec un chat et sait être respectueux des animaux. Il reste calme quand il est seul. Il a besoin d'un médicament pour une allergie et prend le comprimé facilement dans son repas du soir. Sa famille d'accueil ne peut malheureusement pas le garder et souhaite le soutenir pour trouver un bon endroit où vivre. Si le cœur vous dit d'accueillir un partenaire unique et loyal pour vivre le moment présent avec douceur, merci de donner une chance à Sirius!--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Sirius is a real teddy bear looking for a family that will understand his big heart and offer him a peaceful and loving home. He can be independent and reserved at the beginning, but as soon as he gains trust, he is a great companion. Going walking has always been one of his favorite activities and even if at his age he has arthritis, he still loves short walks especially when it's not too hot!In fact, he doesn't let just anyone touch his beautiful fur at first, but he appreciates a good brushing and with time loves to be petted and scratched.At home he is rather quiet and curious, he likes to follow and keep an eye on people, watch outside a window, and enjoy his rest. He grew up with a cat and knows to be respectful of animals. He stays calm when left alone. He needs a medication for an allergy and takes the pill easily with his evening meal.His foster family unfortunately can't keep him and wants to support him in finding a good place to live. If your heart is open to welcome a unique and loyal partner to live the present moment with sweetness, thank you for giving him a chance!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. KATIE was saved from being shot on the streets of Oman by an amazing organization Muscat Dog Adoption. She along with her 7 friends were flown into JFK where they were cleared the CDC and then picked up and transported back to Give a Dog a Home Rescue, in Sebec, Maine on 5 April 2024 Katie is spayed, rabies, core vaccines, monthly preventatives, heartworm and tick disease tested negative and is microchipped. She has an estimated date of birth of 2 September 2021 and at the time of transport weighed around 36 pounds. Mixed breed dogs in Oman are referred to as Omani Wadi Dogs, with most of them being Saluki mixes. KATIE is such a sweet, gentle soul who is settling in well after the long and I am sure scary trip from Oman to the US. She shares a kennel with her Omani friends Myrtle and Phoenix and is starting to get more comfortable and coming out of her shell more. She loves having her neck and ears scratched and is just so desperate for snuggles and all the affection that she deserves and needs. Her sighthound breed whilst they do need an active lifestyle, they tend to have bursts of energy and so a family that can ensure she goes on adventures and the opportunity to run and enjoy burning of that energy.  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. 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. Katie 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 - As the dogs are in the kennels, we are not able to say how they are with cats.
