Story
Lou is a 1 year and 9 months old Beagle. Spayed, microchipped and good with kids. She is very smart and has had intermediate training (many commands down and eager to please) still working on a solid recall off leash, but knows “Here! and Come!”. Her worst traits are chewing and digging, and stealing items for a game of chase, but these are all alleviated if you can stay a few steps ahead of her! She loves plush toys, antlers, rawhide and frozen stuffed kongs. She loves playing in water and mud. She loves baths. She is a super love bug and will cuddle all the time if you let her. She loves other dogs and submits immediately, loves to run and play at the dog park (since we live in the city) She is a really amazing dog! It will break our hearts to rehome her but we want her to have the best life possible because we love her so much! We have a crate and many toys, food, bowls, leash, etc. She is up to date on all shots and vaccines and licensed.

Story
Lucky loves attention and sitting in the sun. He is a sweet dog but has issues with other dogs as well as reactivity to noises outside. He was born roughly in the year of 2020 sometime in the month of October, he is just about 4 and a half years old. I took Lucky in when his previous owner passed away. I was told from the person I adopted him from that his life previously was abusive and that he did not have a great home. Lucky is a dog that if you give him so much love he will always be by your side. I love this dog more than anything in the world but with a new work schedule and lack of money I unfortunately don't have the money to take care of him anymore nor the time to give him the proper attention and training he needs. He is fully house trained, pee pad trained, anyone looking to adopt Lucky should have prior experience with dogs and understands that he is a reactive dog and needs training.

Story
We took Lucifer in from someone who was giving him away for free on Facebook. He is wonderful, and sweet and very well behaved. The person giving him away said she would provide us with paper work, but blocked us on social media as soon as we took him. He has been with us for 5 days. The only reason we can’t keep him is because our little girl is super allergic. It started off with just sneezing to and she now has hives.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. TANIA & TIARA were saved by SAVE KOREAN DOGS from Tobong Dog Slaughterhouse on June 29th 2022  from a horrendous and painful evil death. She arrived in the US on 2nd November 2023. TANIA is spayed, rabies, core vaccines, heartworm and tick tested negative, she is on monthly preventatives, de-wormed and microchipped. She has an estimated date of birth of 21 January 2021 and weighs around 40 pounds. She is a Jindo mix breed dog, with the Jindo being a national treasure. We will be looking to adopt Tania and Tiara together as they are a bonded pair and will be reunited as soon as Tiara arrives in the US. Their adoption fee (for both girls is $300). Please be sure to follow our Facebook page for regular updates as we do not always have the time to update the website and adoption sites on all the individual dogs. We also post video's on our YouTube channel where you can see the dogs personalities, get a better idea of age and looks also. We take a lot of pictures and videos and don't always have the time to post them on the dogs individual webpage and adoption site, so we ask that you go to the rescue  YouTube channel  and  photo albums on our Facebook page  to see a LOT of pictures and videos. Interested families are required to complete our application process and once approved schedule an appointment to come to the rescue to meet and take home their new best friend. Our process takes 1-2 days as long as we are able to talk to references, so be prepared to be approved (hopefully) to adopt within a few days of submitting the adoption application. https://giveadogahome-rescue.rescuegroups.org/forms/form?formid=5838 HOUSE TRAINED - All of our dogs are located in the kennel building so we are not able to say if a dog is house-trained, however, they do have access and use the dog door to access their run, play area 24/7. FOOD - We feed a variety of high quality brands and flavors including, chicken, turkey, beef, lamb and fish generally alternated daily. CATS - As the dogs are in the kennels, we are not able to say how they are with cats.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. ALMA-Boy was saved from being shot on the streets of Oman by an amazing organization Muscat Dog Adoption. He along with his7 friends were flown into JFK where they were cleared the CDC and then picked up and transported back to Give a Dog a Home Rescue, in Sebec, Maine on 5 April 2024 We post in east coast states and Canada as we have many families adopt and are happy to make the worthwhile trip up to the rescue. We do not always have time to post all the pictures on each dogs individual page, but we do post a lot of photo's on the rescue Facebook page. Alma-Boy is neutered, rabies, core vaccines, monthly preventatives, heartworm and tick disease tested negative and is microchipped. He has an estimated date of birth of 21 November 2022 and at the time of transport weighed around 35 pounds. Mixed breed dogs in Oman are referred to as Omani Wadi Dogs, with most of them being Saluki mixes. Alma is such a gentle and sweet boy, he is a little wary at first, but having been through all he has leaving his rescue in Oman and traveling to the US is a huge change. After just a few days, he has settled in great, he gets excited when I go over to the kennels, will now take treats, very gently, shares a kennel with two other dogs and does great. One of his kennel mates, CHIP a young cattle dog is really helping to bring him out of his shell, teaching him to play and having him curious in the toys and chews. He sleeps snuggled up with, I feel he gets a lot of comfort with Chips typical cattle dog confidence. ALMA is thin, although being the kind of breed, a sighthound mix, he will not need to gain much more weight, but a few extra pounds would have him at a healthy weight. We take a lot of pictures and videos and don't always have the time to post them on the dogs individual webpage and adoption site, so we ask that you go to the rescue    YouTube channel   and    photo albums on our Facebook page   to see a LOT of pictures and videos. We are looking for families that have the lifestyle that the dog needs to lead a healthy, both mentally and physically life, who can afford a GOOD quality food, toys and treats and understand the importance of veterinary wellness checks. Alma-Boy is located at the rescue in Sebec Maine and is available for a reduced adoption fee of $300. Interested families are required to complete our application process and once approved schedule an appointment to come to the rescue to meet and take home their new best friend. Our process takes 1-2 days as long as we are able to talk to references, so be prepared to be approved (hopefully) to adopt within a few days of submitting the adoption application. https://giveadogahome-rescue.rescuegroups.org/forms/form?formid=5838 HOUSE TRAINED - All of our dogs are located in the kennel building so we are not able to say if a dog is house-trained, however, they do have access and use the dog door to access their run, play area 24/7.
