We are performing dog adoptions by appointment. Please call us at 207-778-2638 during our office hours to schedule. We’d love to help you find the purrrfect furry friend to add to your family!
This week’s Pets of the Week are:

Maverick, Hound Mix, Male, 1 Year Old: Meet Maverick!! Maverick is a very sweet hound boy who is very exuberant in almost every aspect of his being. He is a typical hound…. he’s very vocal and very food motivated! He loves going for walks and being around people. Maverick would love to find a patient home who is willing to work with him on basic manners and would highly benefit from continued leash training. Maverick would love to meet your current dog to see if they can be friends but requires a home that is feline free. Due to his overly excited, friendly, and exuberant nature along with his size, Maverick would be best suited for a home without small children.

And then there is Sophie, 1 to 3 Years, Female: Hi there, my name is Sophie. I am a sweet girl who is a little on the timid side. I’m still adjusting to my new surroundings here at the shelter. Can you find room in your heart to help me become more self confident?
