Story
Meet Ariana (10 lbs) and Xena (12 lbs), two sweet 3-year-old Maltese–Bichon mix sisters looking for an experienced small-dog home. They’re a bonded pair who love to snuggle—Ariana sleeps close to her people, and Xena curls up at the foot of the bed. These girls are active, playful, and would thrive with an active family, ideally one with a fenced yard for daily exercise. They enjoy fetch, tag, and playing together, and may even do well in agility. Ariana is the calmer, more confident one, while Xena follows her lead. They are food-motivated, know basic commands, and are crate trained when left alone. They still need consistent housetraining and some leash-walking practice, especially Xena, but they’re smart and eager to learn. They are UTD on vaccinations and will be spayed through HSLC. They can be vocal at times, especially when they hear noises outside. If you’re looking for a loving, energetic pair who will bring lots of affection and fun into your home, Ariana and Xena just might be your perfect match. Thanks to a generous sponsor, Ariana and Xena are BOGO-you get two great pups and one of their adoption fees is waived!

Story
Meet Alex — Your New Best Snuggle Buddy!   Looking for a calm, gentle soul to fill your home with love?  Alex , a 10-year-old Maltese with a heart of pure gold, might be  the one you’ve been waiting for .  At 10, Alex has mastered what really matters in life: &#226&#156&#168   loving his people &#226&#156&#168   snuggling like a champion &#226&#156&#168   keeping the peace He’ll curl up beside you for hours — on the couch, in bed, wherever you are. If you’ve ever dreamed of having a fluffy little shadow who loves you endlessly, Alex is your guy. Cat lovers, pay attention!  Alex  adores  cats. He lights up around them, and we’re pretty sure he lived with them before joining his foster family. If you’ve got a friendly feline at home, Alex will fit right in. What about dogs?  Alex prefers calm, polite pups. Big dogs make him nervous, and rowdy puppies can overwhelm him. That’s why we believe he’d thrive in a  quiet, low-key home  — the kind of place where he can relax, feel safe, and spend his afternoons lounging peacefully. Don’t let his age fool you — he’s in great shape!  Alex  loves  his walks and struts along beautifully on a leash. He may not know a ton of commands, but he’s incredibly intuitive — he watches you, reads the room, and figures out what you’re asking. He just wants to make his people happy. Kids?  We haven’t seen him around children yet, so a kid-free or older-kid home is likely best. If you’ve got a quiet home, a comfy couch, and room in your heart for the sweetest senior Maltese on the planet,  Alex is ready to love you forever. Come meet Alex — and let him show you what unconditional love feels like. Adoption fee: $375, includes all shots, sterilized, heartworm negative, dewormed, flea preventative, microchip   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have. The adoption policies and applications can be found at the following links: https://fancycats.org/adopt-a-cat and https://fancycats.org/adopt-a-dog. Email us at  adoption@fancycats.org for general questions about our rescued cats. Email us at dogadoptions@fancycats.org for general questions about our rescued dogs. See our calendar of adoption events at https://fancycats.org/(scroll towards bottom) You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like bridges between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save cats and dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters.

Story
This sweet girl is named Carley. She is an 8-year-old, 20-pound Bichon Friese mix with a bit of sadness in her big eyes. You see, her owner has passed away and left her behind. She's a laid-back girl who is both house and crate trained. She loves affection, too. She promises that, although she'll need to be groomed periodically, she will reward you with all the love she has inside her. This girl deserves a loving home, one where she'll never be left behind. (posted 11/29/2, ME) Lower Fees: Adoption Fee: Adoption fees for Hope dogs, Seniors and those who have been in rescue for prolonged periods of time are reduced to $150.00-- covers microchip, worming, all vaccines, monthly heart worm preventative, monthly tick/flea preventative, spaying/neutering, health certificate, and complete medical records. Transport Fee: $100.00-- We consider the transport to be of great importance and, as such, take particular care of the dogs during the trip. We make every effort to arrive with healthy and minimally stressed dogs. **It is rare that we know with certainty the ages or mixes that make up our dogs, but we do our best to be as accurate as possible based upon our experience. **November 29, 2025, 1:08 pm
