Meet all 8 lbs. of Biscuit!! Even though he was burned and seriously hurt he is willing to do anything just as long as he is with his people. Biscuit is not up for adoption yet because he still has to heal. We just couldn't keep this cuteness to ourselves. This happy little nugget is the sweetest thing and is always down for a good snuggle. He is such a tiny little gem, and he is going to make someone VERY HAPPY. We are hoping he will be ready to be adopted in the next few weeks.

The Sanctuary has 17 dogs coming up in the next three weeks and we are doing a fundraiser to help cover the transportation, medical, and food cost. If you donate to the sanctuary, you can get your pets ear illustration, or a drawing of your pet.
$20 for an ear illustration
$60 for your pets drawing
$90 for your pets drawing in a frame
How it works:
1. Donate to the sanctuary. Our Venmo link is on our page.
2. Messenger us a screenshot of your donation, with a picture of your pet. Try to get a picture straight on and I would love multiple pictures!
3. It will take a few weeks to get the drawings done and once done, I will messenger you to let you know.
4. We will then figure out meeting up or mailing it to you.
A BIG Thank you to everyone who has supported the Sanctuary!

She is being fostered in a home with cats and a dog. Help us find Lucy's forever home.

Colin is making the trip up to Maine in the next couple of weeks. He was found in Texas as a stray with deformed front legs. We of course had to scoop him up right away and he has since been in a wonderful foster home in Texas. Amazingly his legs seem to be straightening out a little the bigger and stronger he gets. Colin and 16 other dogs of all ages and sizes will be traveling to Maine in the month of February. Please fill out an application if you are interested in adopting or fostering one of the fantastic dogs coming to the sanctuary.

Are you looking for a cuddle buddy who loves all other dogs Bronx is your man. Bronx is a 6-year-old, 18 lbs., Jack Russell Mix. He does have one quirk; he doesn't like visitors in his space at home. He loves his people and will want to be with them as much as possible, but when visitors come over, he just needs to be put into another room or kennel. He is very social with other people and dogs when out of his house. He is a sweet boy that needs someone who will understand him. If you are interested in having an adorable snuggle buddy, please fill out an application.

CHUBS IS UP FOR ADOPTION!!
This handsome man is Chubs, and he came to the sanctuary super skinny with no energy. Come to find out Chubs had eaten a toy or sock before being flown to Maine. We were able to do surgery and get Chubs healthy again. He is in a home with children and cats, but Mr. Chubs does like to eat socks that are left out. At full weight Chubs should be around 65lbs, he is 6 years old, and housetrained. He wants to be with his people as much as he can. Chubs would love to find his forever family where he can make himself right at home on someone's lap while they watch TV. If you are interested in Chubs, please fill out an application.
