He has several weeks of professional training and knows his commands, including "place" and walks well on a leash. He's playful and athletic. Finn would like a stronger handler with breed experience. He can be protective of his people and home without proper guidance from his people. Finn has lived with another dog. He can be a bit dominant.

Story
Please welcome REINE to the Rescue! Reine (pronounced RAIN) is coming to us as an owner surrender from Maine. She is 2 yrs old and very sweet. She has lived with other dogs both large and small and has been fine with them. She is very friendly with people. She is housebroken and does not need to be crated in the home. She could use some practice with the leash, but has her house manners! She has been in a very good home, and was very well taken care of, but circumstances have changed there. Reine is an active girl who is looking for an active family to do things with - hike, walk etc. She would be a wonderful addition to the right home. If you are a loving, active home and would like to open your home and heart to one of our dogs, please fill out our online application to get the approval process started.

Story
EXCELLENT DOG ALERT! The lovely Heidy has arrived in Maine, and is looking for her perfect home! We rescued Heidy from the Moreno Valley Shelter in CA a couple of months ago. She went to the shelter because her elderly owners passed away. Heidy is only 3 yrs old and she is a big girl of 80 lbs. Unfortunately, her owners never gave Heidy a lick of any training, manners etc. Luckily a trainer out in CA had a spot for her while we waited for transport, so Heidy has learned her manners, and is now good on leash, and knows her commands! She was also well socialized, taken out in public etc. She has learned a LOT, and knows down, sit, stay, and shake. She is also crate trained! She is a smart girl! The trainer says Heidi has an excellent disposition, and is good with both male and female dogs. She is big and can be rambunctious, so she will be looking for an active home that will walk and hike with her! If you are an active and loving home and would like to open your home and heart to one of our dogs, please fill out our online application to get the approval process started. We will not schedule meet and greets without an approved app on file.

Story
Like a lazy summer afternoon with a cool breeze, Summer is a gentle senior Shepsky who prefers to take life at her own unhurried pace. She’s a very sweet girl with a dreamy, head-in-the-clouds personality. Summer enjoys lounging in comfy spots and leisurely walks. She has a soft spot for snow and may occasionally surprise you with a howl or two just to show off that husky flair. She’s happy soaking in the simple joys of life and would love a home that appreciates her easygoing nature.She has had positive introductions with respectful children here at the shelter. Any dogs in the home will need to meet Summer at the shelter for a dog-to-dog introduction to ensure a good match. We do not have a history of her living with cats, but she would be willing to meet any felines on a dog’s day out to the home.If you’re looking for a sweet senior who brings mellow, warm vibes with just a hint of husky song, Summer might be the perfect companion to share your days with.

Story
My dog is named Captain. Purebred german shepherd, male. He is about 7 months with up to date vaccinations. I have all paperwork and info of both parents and all family history, also with all vet info. Its all held in the binder the breeder gave me. He is crate trained for sleeping at night and naps and house potty trained as well. He takes flea and tick medication - Credelio and 2 weeks after Intercepter and his Food - Purina Puppy Chow, 2 cups, 2x a day. I got Captain in Maine, from Seelenvoll German Shepherds. Born - June 13th, 2025 and I paid $4800. I need to rehome him because it's very overwhelming, I have autism and I got him in for board and training. However it's gotten to the point where it is very hard to control him and his training isnt as affective as before. The stress has gotten to the point where I can handle my thoughts and his routine. Captain loves everyone and is very smart and eager to learn.

Story
My name is Kai Milo and I was surrendered to an over crowded shelter. I am super playful and love people. I love playing with tennis balls and frisbees. I need a little help learning when play time is over. I like playing with other dogs as long as they match my energy and are nice to me. I did live with a cat reportedly but we will have to do proper introductions to check again. I also have been around children.
