Meet Our Adoptable Animals

Silver is an exceptional cartoon of a dog!! He is a goofball and has a great sense of humor. He is fun and exciting, loves affection and will do anything for you. If you are looking for a smart, emotionally intelligent, curious dog - then look no further.
Silver came to us as a COVID dog--he lived in a home with an elderly lady and grew protective of her due to little to no socialization. He has lived with children before and is a playful housemate with them. Due to his protective tendencies, he needs to be in a fenced in yard or always on a leash. He cannot go to a home with small animals or cats.
He is exuberantly playful especially with dogs his size or larger! He loves water and playing fetch and is crate and house trained. We are working on his leash manners to encourage him to be more polite.
Regardless, Silver would love to be in a home with a "been-there-done-that" type role model dog--but it is not a requirement. He is such a joyful boy and has never had a bad day--the only times we have seen him stressed are when he wants to be included or join in on the fun--he can be a clingy boy. No separation anxiety, just FOMO.
Silver would make an excellent hiking, jogging or sport partner!

Loki
3 years old
German shepard Great Dane X
Floki came to us locally from a cruelty investigation . He was physically abused often and bit his abuser to protect himself. At only a year old, the local shelter wanted to euthanize him for standing up against the human who treated him poorly!
In our environment, Floki has been flourishing. He is no longer worried about when his next meal will come or if he will receive kindness. Floki LOVES having other dogs around to play with and is the most affectionate, silly, and goofy playmate with them!
Floki has some interest in cat chasing but will do not harm--it stems from curiosity and the strong desire to play.
Because of his former treatment, Floki is best in a home with children over `12.
This sweet boy is learning all of his basic obedience and leash manners with us, is crate and house trained, and ready to totally steal your heart!
He will benefit from a home that will offer him the patience and softness he needs, while still setting boundaries with his exuberant, young male self!

Fargo
5 Years old
German Shepard
Fargo, or Farley, like the late Chris Farley, is a large, sweet, and silly boy. He came into our care fat fat fat fat fatttttttt--it was pretty gross and limited his physical abilities a LOT. But man he is looking goooood now that he is on a healthy diet and gets proper exercise!
He would play fetch with his chuck-it all day long!
Farley is close to 3 years old which means, yes, he is another COVID shepherd. We seem to be collecting those here...Farley has some fear-based reactivity on leash to people and other dogs. He lives in a doggie daycare and is eager to make friends off leash. His on-leash manners are being rehabilitated while he is with us and he is doing STELLAR.
Farley has somewhat of a mystery history. He has been owned by at least five, now six, people in his short life. He was born and lived in TX until his first owner was arrested. I have NO idea how he ended up in Maine--honestly it's very sad and scary how dogs can so easily fall through the cracks--but we weren't about to let that happen! Farley was going to be surrendered to a local Maine shelter and would have been euthanized for his leash reactivity.
Farley has had no issue meeting people here, off leash, or on, and has had amazing interactions with cats too!
His last owner was very physically abusive, and this makes Farley weary of quick movements and sometimes shy when getting to know men. He will not react with teeth, but instead cower and cry and shut down if he is afraid. He is not used to a kind and gentle home and we are showing him how to navigate it all.
Don't miss out on this FORMERLY chonky boi!

Stella
4 years old
Sheepadoodle
If you're looking for a outgoing, confident, adventrous sidekick, Stella is your girl. Stella loves being outdoors with her humans especially if there is a game of fetch involved, she would play until the sun goes down. She is good with cats and loves other dog friends and would prefer to have a four legged sibling in the house. Stella has lived with children for a short period and would prefer children over the age of 8. Stella temporarily expierenced city life and found out that she would much rather live in a rural area with a fenced in yard or, better yet, she would love to be a farm girl.
If you are interested in Stella please fill out an adoption application that you will find on our website. We all would love to meet you-- especially Stella!

This angel is one in a million!!
Dolly is great with all living creatures--human and animal. She defies so many stereotypes of shepherds!!
This amazing dog needs to live with another dog. She thrives on having a role model when it comes to house manners and expectations, plus a buddy that will be home with her during your work day to prevent mischievous behavior.
She is crate trained, house trained, and has great basics.
She does, however, need a fenced in yard or to ALWAYS be leashed. She also needs work around doorways where she has a tendency to dart. She has proven to be an escape artist eager to explore when the opportunity arises!
Because of her opportunistic behavior, a home with small kids that may open or close doors will not be ideal. She is great with children, but the risk they pose to a dog like Dolly is too great.

Cleopatra!! The queen of all the dogs here--seriously!
She is regal, passionate, strong--all queen like traits.
She is also sooo silly, can climb a 6ft fence with ease, has confidence without bounds, and wants to be toching at ALL times!!
Despite her breeds and her athelticism, she is veryyy low drive compared to our other Mals and Shepherds. She loves loves loves to play, with humans and animals.
Cleo came from a home with many animals and children, through no fault of her own. She has been gaining social skills, confidence in the outside world, and basic cues and leash manners. She is an exceptional demo dog already and would love a sport home!
SHE LOOOVESSS TO SWIM!!!
Cleo is an absolute doll with all people--she greets strangers like they are long lost friends! She even greets the VET this way!!
Seriously--she is one of a kind. We love her so so much! She makes us laugh avery single day, and her obsessive affection for humans is so endearing and almost infectious.
Breed experienced homes will be given preference, as well as homes with other dogs. Cleopatra is best with dogs similar in confidence and age, as she can bully the weak or old when she is bored.
Cleo is about 55lbs and super lean. She will be spayed prior to adoption.
Training classes or private training in Orford, NH are included in their adoption for free!

Stevie
4 years old
American Pitbull
Stevie is one of the most goofy, kind, emotionally intelligent, and gorgeous pups around!
Stevie is cat friendly, dog friendly, and loves all people with proper introductions.
Stephen loves to zoom and play, and would be happiest in a home with another social and friendly dog to be his companion.
This stunning boy does need structured introductions to new people. Once they are in the club, though, they are a friend for life! Stevie had lived in both rural and urban settings and did well in both, with little obvious preference.
Stevie is energetic, sometimes over-stimulated, and can jump in situations of over-arousal. Because of this, we recommend a home without children under 10.
Stevie is crate trained, house trained, LOVES to snuggle (especially under the blankets, shares resources with other dogs without any issues, and is waiting for YOU!

Rudolph's story began like way too many southern dogs...
He was found emaciated, almost dead, living on a chain.
His story before the chain is not known--but his story WILL be a happy-ever-after!!
Rudolph does well playing with dogs his size and larger! He does showcase prey drive towards small animals, and thus is likely not cat friendly.
Because we have no history of his life other than the chain, we also do not know if he was ever exposed to children. To be safe, he will not be placed in a home with children under 12.
This gorgeous, fun, and athletic boy would thrive in an active home. He is still learning leash manners, but even so, would make an incredible hiking partner!
Rudi is non-reactive towards strangers or other animals--a true miracle given what he has been through! He believes everyone is his friend.
Please consider giving this gorgeous boy the chance to live in a real home, with kindness and love, where he can thrive.

3 year old German Shepherd, Neutered Male
Pickle
Pickle is a one-in-a-million shepherd!!
He is the total package. He is the unicorn of shepherds, and a king amongst our rescue.Pickle is friends with all animals and all people!
His one flaw? He does not trust strange men immediately. Like many of our available dogs, Pickle needs structured introductions to men.
Other than this, he is an absolute dream boat!Pickle is 3 years old and good with kids, cats, and dogs.
Pickle does need a home that will follow explicit decompression protocols to reduce the risk of resource guarding, as this appeared briefly while he was adjusting to two separate foster situations.
Pickle is ready to be your Disney prince--any day!!
