Story
Meet Henry, an adorable little whippet who is simply the sweetest boy. He needs to be homed with his littermate Roxy as they are a bonded pair. Henry is gentle, friendly, affectionate, and very playful. He absolutely loves going on walks and will sometimes get the zoomies from all the excitement. He does well with other dogs and loves to play with his favorite stuffed toys. He is quite a shy around new people (men in particular) and loud/ busy environments and would do best in a quiet home. With plenty of patience and encouragement he is sure to make strides with his anxieties. He is a good eater and is very food motivated. Overall, Henry is a sweet and affectionate dog who wants nothing more than a loving home to call his own. * Fast Friends adopts in the New England area.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. ALBUS was saved and cared for by Muscat Dog Adoption, before sending him with other saved dogs to Give a Dog a Home Rescue in Sebec, Maine. They arrived in the US on 28th January 2025 and were transported to the rescue where they are settling in. ALBUS was cleared by the US canine center for diseases upon entry into the US. He is neutered, rabies, core vaccines, heartworm and tick tested negative, is on monthly preventatives, microchipped, weighs around 35 pounds and has an estimated date of birth or 2 July 2022. ALBUS's story is that he and his siblings was saved from a high traffic construction site where many other stray dogs had been killed. They were young puppies and taken to the safety of a wonderful Omani lady who cared for them until they was around 6months at which time he and his siblings were transferred to the Muscat Dog Adoption location. When saved Albus had a lot of damage to his tail that resulted in at least half of it being amputated in February 2023. Two of his siblings came to Give a Dog a Home Rescue back in April 2024, Bellatrix and Myrtle and have since been adopted.   Stray dogs in Oman are referred to as "Wadi Dogs" and are a mix of the popular sighthound breeds, specifically thought to be descendents of the majestic Saluki and other smaller breeds, many resembling whippets with their small agile frames. If not saved these dogs are often shot or brutally ran over and left for dead. 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. ALBUS 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.
