Vassalboro, ME

Size

Details

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Gina was a cruelty, trauma, neglect case that came from an inner city shelter. Her owner had requested her to be euthanized but the shelter was able to sway them to surrender instead. Even for being a senior, she gets around okay. She is not reactive to dogs on walks and is very gentle on the leash. She is protective over her person though, so there shouldn’t be any other animals in her retirement home. She is perfectly okay being a couch potato and loves to catch up on all of her tv shows! When she wags her tail, she wiggles her whole body!

Laika

Labrador Retriever

Female, 2 yrs 8 mos

Vassalboro, ME

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Laika is officially up for adoption here in Maine! If you remember our post, she was the dog that came from the vet’s office. The office where her owner brought her to be euthanized because one of their cats was no longer with them because of her (unsure how involved she was). As a back story, she lived with 5 other dogs. She wasn’t brought out a whole lot, and based upon her behavior…no one ever spent any positive time with her. When she first arrived, she was TERRIFIED. She bolted every second there was a sound. She had a harness and super tight collar on for the first week she was with us. She cowered ALL THE TIME. Fast forward to today. She is spayed and up to date with shots. She is still very timid. She has connected with me, and looks for me. She wags the tip of her tail. She wiggles now and bounces. She looks at things instead of bolting. I can take her out with a slip lead. She cuddles. It is now time for her to have a real home. Us keeping her isn’t an option as she needs so much more than a rescue home can give her. She needs to be loved. She needs to know that there are still good people in the world. She needs someone who will walk with her or spend time in a secured yard. She needs someone that can just hang out with her, teach her. Other dogs are still touch and go. After what she has been through, it’s understandable. Because she is 2 years old, there is so much growth that can happen if someone puts the time in. Absolutely no cats, no small animals, no small dogs period. No aggression behavior towards people has been shown.

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.
