Dogs On Borrowed Time - Portland, ME Dog rescue in Portland, ME

Dogs on Borrowed Time is a small group of ladies who originally started to help dogs/puppies from a local high kill shelter (this is where the name on Borrowed Time comes from). We have since grew to help surrounding counties with abandoned dogs as well as the dogs and puppies in the high kill shelter. We rescue the dogs or puppies and get them the proper vet care that they need. We then assess them and place them up for adoption.
