Story
Kami est une chienne très affectueuse qui apprécie la présence de ses maîtres. Elle peut facilement passer quelques heures seule à la maison sans cage et n`est pas destructrice. Elle est bonne nageuse et adore se baigner. Son jeu favori est le tir à la corde.Elle est gentille avec les humains et les animaux qu`elle connaît. Par contre, elle est réactive avec les inconnus, particulièrement sur la rue. Ce comportement est atténué si elle a beaucoup d`exercice, mais est à travailler.//Kami is a very affectionate dog who enjoys the presence of her owners. She can easily spend a few hours alone at home without a crate and is not destructive. She is a good swimmer and loves to swim. Her favorite game is tug-of-war.She is friendly with humans and animals she knows. However, she is reactive with strangers, especially on the street. This behavior improves with plenty of exercise, but still requires work.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Pico will be arriving in Maine on 10 May 2025 We are happy to accept and process applications before she arrives. Pico was saved from a high kill shelter in Texas  arrived at Give a Dog a Home Rescue in Sebec, Maine at the end of April. We post our available dogs in states across the east coast and Canada to reach as many people as possible in hopes to find perfect homes and families. We do not transport dogs, families must come to the rescue in Sebec, Maine to meet and then hopefully take home. Pico is neutered, rabies, core vaccines, heartworm and tick tested negative, is on monthly preventatives, microchipped, and in March 2025 weighed 9 pounds and has an estimated date of birth of February 2021.    We can not say for sure what the breed is, we expect families to decide looking at any pictures and video's provide and decide if the breed is a good fit for their family. This is what the shelter relayed from his foster family about this sweet boy: Pico is a wonderful 4-year-old, 9-pound ball of love who has been an absolute joy to foster! He’s the perfect balance of affectionate and independent. Pico is great with both dogs and kids, making him an ideal companion for a family of any size. He’s housebroken and has a great energy level—not too laid back, but not overly crazy either. He enjoys his playtime but is equally content just hanging out and getting some belly rubs or lounging in your lap. Pico is also very tolerant when it comes to dress-up, which is a cute bonus! He loves attention and cuddles, but he’s also happy to do his own thing when the mood strikes. If you’re looking for a dog with a sweet, affectionate nature who can also entertain himself independently, Pico would be a perfect fit for you! Pico is available for adoption for an adoption fee of $550, as noted he is located at the rescue in Sebec, Maine and families are required to complete and submit an  adoption application and when approved schedule an appointment to come to the rescue to meet and hopefully take home this sweet boy. Applications are processed with 24 hours of them being received. Link to the Adoption Application To look at lots more photo's be sure to check out our        Facebook Page ALBUMS        where we are able to upload hundreds of photos of our dogs waiting for their forever homes and families.

Story
Dex est un adorable compagnon au grand cœur qui ne demande qu’amour et attention. Intelligent et bien éduqué, il connaît plusieurs commandes comme donner la patte, s’asseoir et se coucher. Il attend même sagement le signal avant de manger ! Ce petit rêveur a aussi une habitude adorable : il s’exprime à voix haute dans son sommeil.Dex s’entend bien avec les chats – il vit actuellement avec deux Bengals, Minette et Charlot. Cependant, il a encore besoin de gagner en confiance : il est très craintif à l’extérieur et peut aboyer lorsqu’il y a des visiteurs. Avec de la patience et un environnement rassurant, il pourra s’épanouir pleinement. Et attention à vos chaussettes… Dex adore les chiper dans le panier de linge !Si vous avez un foyer calme et beaucoup d’amour à offrir, Dex pourrait bien être votre compagnon idéal.//Dex is an adorable companion with a big heart who only wants love and attention. Smart and well-trained, he knows several commands like giving a paw, sitting, and lying down. He even patiently waits for the signal before eating! This little dreamer also has an adorable habit—he expresses himself out loud in his sleep.Dex gets along well with cats—he currently lives with two Bengals, Minette and Charlot. However, he still needs to build his confidence: he is very fearful outside and may bark when visitors arrive. With patience and a reassuring environment, he will be able to flourish. And watch out for your socks… Dex loves stealing them from the laundry basket!If you have a calm home and lots of love to give, Dex might just be your perfect companion.
