Say hello to Stitch, a 9-month-old bundle of energy and joy! This spirited young pup is ready to leap into your heart and home with his infectious enthusiasm and playful nature. Stitch is a toy aficionado, and he’s always up for a game or a fun challenge with his favorite squeaky, bouncy, or chewy toys.

Currently, Stitch is honing his basic obedience skills and would thrive in a home that’s committed to continuing his positive reinforcement training. His eagerness to learn and his motivation for toys make him an ideal candidate for further training and enrichment.

Stitch adores his canine companions and would love a family who can provide him with plenty of playtime and socialization. He’s a lively, affectionate boy who’s looking for a loving home where he can grow, learn, and have a blast with his new family.

If you’re ready for an active, fun-loving pup who will keep you on your toes and fill your life with joy, Stitch is waiting to meet you at our Brunswick Campus today!

Earlier today, one of our fosters rushed into our Brunswick Shelter with their foster dog, who was in dire need of medical care. Our Medical Team quickly determined that emergency surgery was necessary, and a short time later, they successfully removed his spleen, which had swollen to the size of a football. Thankfully, the dog is now awake, stable, and will receive overnight care at an emergency clinic. While this particular case was especially alarming, emergencies like this happen almost daily. It’s only through the generosity of our community that we can continue to provide life-saving treatment for animals in urgent need. Your donation to our medical fund helps ensure we’re ready to act when it matters most. If you’re able, please consider contributing today.

As you might know, some senior pets take a bit longer to be adopted than their younger counterparts. Right now, we have a number of incredible senior pets who have been patiently waiting for their new homes. Please take a moment to view their photos below and consider welcoming one of these loving companions into your family. If you're unable to adopt, sharing this post would help us spread the word and reach more people who may be interested! For more photos and detailed information about these wonderful seniors (and all of our adoptable pets!), visit our website. Your support can make a world of difference!

Freja is a sweet, playful, seven-year-old pup looking for her new home, and she just might be your perfect match! With her big heart and love for tennis balls, Freja is always ready for some fun. Got a good throwing arm? You two will have a blast together! She’s all about chasing after balls (and might even bring them back to you sometimes!). While Freja loves to play, she’s just as happy with a comfy couch, humans that will cover her with a blanket when it's time to sleep, excellent walking paths to stretch her legs, and the freedom to be her goofy self. Freja would love to be the only pet in her new home. That way, she gets all the treats, belly rubs, and chew bones to herself! She's best suited for homes with adults or older kids, and she feels most secure with a snug harness on her walks. If you're looking for a fun, loving, and loyal companion, Freja is ready to meet you. Fill out an application on our website, and we’ll be in touch!

✨ It's time for a Happy Tail! ✨ "In July we adopted Lakota (now Mateo) - a 3-year old Great Pyrenees. He has been a dream and settled into our family and home immediately. He enjoys other dogs, cats, children, and adults. He is gentle and sweet and we absolutely adore him. He loves his daily walks, adventures in the car, and visits to our places of work, and public spaces in general. We are grateful for the care you gave him and for being the connector that brought us together. Thank you for your time and for all that (all) you do!" Thank you to Mateo's adopters for giving him the loving home he needed ❤🐾

On August 2nd, with over 450 animals in our care, we announced that we had reached capacity. To make room for more animals in need, we waived adoption fees at our Brunswick Campus for all pets over six months old for three days. Your response was nothing short of amazing. Our post was shared over 3,800 times, and in just three days, 111 animals found their new homes with loving families.
🐾
Thanks to the space these adoptions created, we have been able to take in 134 owner surrendered animals, 132 stray animals, 42 animals needing medical care, 27 animals seized by law enforcement, and 18 animals from three different shelters across Maine—all in the last month.
🐾
We are incredibly grateful for your support that allows us to be the safety net for animals in need. From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU.

➡ Check out Baloo's transformation from matted to marvelous! ✨ Baloo is a gentle 13-year-old soul on the lookout for his perfect retirement home. After the passing of his previous owner, Baloo is ready to fill his golden years with love and companionship in a caring home. He is 13, but don’t let his age fool you—Baloo still enjoys life to the fullest! He loves leisurely walks by your side and adores his spa days at the groomer. His favorite pastimes? Yummy snacks and cozy snuggles on the sofa. Baloo is a sweet, serene companion who will bring warmth and love to any home. If you’re ready to offer him the peaceful retirement he deserves, come meet Baloo at our Brunswick Campus!

Meet Cici! This lovely lady came to Midcoast Humane after her longtime human companion passed away and she had no where to go. She was understandably a bit rattled by the transition, but is opening up more and more every day. At 13 years old, Cici would love to find a quiet home where she can live out her golden years. She would prefer to live in a home without children or other pets, with adult humans who will be kind, patient and loving as she learns to love and trust again. If you can give Cici the loving home she needs, visit her at our Brunswick Campus during our open hours. ❤🐾
