The Bucksport dogs are gaining weight, feeling more settled and even seem happy now that they are out of that hellhole. If you've been following the news, you know what we're talking about

We've gotten backlash in the past from people who say we are "being negative" when we talk about the importance of investigating animal "rescues" before lending support. But this case is yet another example of what we're talking about.

Lots of new places are popping up. Some of them will deserve support and some will NOT.

How do you know? Sit back and watch, visit, get to know the people involved-- all before giving a dime. Lend your support to organizations that have shown over a long period of time that they are worthy, they make donations count for animals, they work hard *with measurable results*, and they are transparent in their community.

These dogs were never going to be the easiest to place in Maine. They are already stigmatized because of their breed. A new "rescue" pulling high numbers of these breeds, without major experience, backed by a long history and stable reputation, was the first red flag.

Now it's me talking- Daniella. Amstaffs in particular are my favorite. I love them. But even I know, this state is not one where we can expect high adoption rates for them. Does it make me sad? Yes. But there are lots of different dogs out there who need help, and we want to do our best to promote the happiest matches. Although truth be told, these dogs are the squishiest, most loyal, soulful pups, and they deserve a lot more openess than they get.

However, the reality is, these dogs will sit at our shelters a lot longer than they need to. Some of them will be here for years, only because of the way they look.

We are here for them. And so many others who need us. Our shelters are FULL. The animals are happy and we take care of them like they're family. Because they are family, until they get the chance to move into a new family. We will treat them as you'd want them treated, until they get to move on. If they're that lucky. Whether they are lucky in that way, well, that depends on you.

So, here they are. Each face can tell you a sad story, but they all have hope. Please lend us a hand-- our dog program needs you, whether you want to help us with these poor dogs, or the others we have now, or will have in the future.

We need to pay for the rehab care, tests, and treatments they need. We need foam beds and kongs, benebones, and other enrichment for them. But mostly- WE NEED ADOPTERS.

Lady and Tramp are still looking for their home! They can go together or separate as they act more like brother and sister than bonded pair.

Lady: She is 6 years old, spayed, and dog friendly with appropriate introductions. She is very sweet, well mannered, and just a chill girl! Likes children as well. Unsure about cats.

Tramp: He is 8 years old, neutered, and dog friendly with appropriate introductions. He is very sweet, well mannered, and just a chill guy! Small children make him nervous. Unsure about cats.

Archie is still waiting for his forever family 💔

He is only around 2-3, is about 50-60 lbs, and snorts everywhere he goes!

He is dog friendly with appropriate introductions but prefers females.

Hasn’t been cat tested.

Incredibly sweet, is a people pleaser, and has the cutest mannerisms 🥰

Please help us find a forever family for him!

Pittie Posse Community, we need your help now more than ever 💔

Our bank account is completely drained…

We haven’t been able to catch a break lately 😔

Within the last month alone, Brandy, Bunny, and Laden all had to be hospitalized at MVMC for different reasons…and the costs have completely emptied our funds.

Without financial support…

We’re faced with the heartbreaking reality that we can’t commit to saving any more dogs.

Each week, over 15 dogs are on the euthanasia list at the shelter we pull from. We don’t want to leave any behind.

We’re pleading with you—please consider donating, whether it’s $5, $50, or $500.

Every single dollar makes a difference and will go directly to the next dog or bill in need 🐶❤️‍🩹

We don’t want to close our doors to more dogs. Please, if you’re able, donate today.

Update - these 2 sweeties were to go to their new adoptive home today. Regrettably, the prospective adopter changed her mind this morning. We now need a new home for Zamboni and Fancy. Please let us know if you are interested.

Since so many kind souls came forward with offers of help for little Sadie with the heart murmur, we are posting these two sweeties in the hopes someone will offer to foster them. We are experiencing an unprecedented number of collies in need of assistance. We had a foster home lined up, but there was a family emergency requiring the foster to leave the country.

Here is a little bit about them. Regrettably, their owner recently passed. The male tri is named Zamboni and is 8 years old. The female sable is named Fancy and is 12. Both are spayed/neutered. They have lived with cats. Very friendly around all people including children. The family members are taking care of them now but cannot do so much longer.

We are committed to keeping them together. If you wish to foster and have not yet done so for us before, we will need a foster app completed. Contact us at [email protected]. We now have an electronic application. (Yay, Doug!) If you need a paper app, we can provide that as well. We have world class volunteers who will help with transport. We cover all veterinary costs, prescriptions and grooming.

We are open to adopting to the foster home if desired. Some of our volunteers like to foster, and some end up falling in love with their foster(s) and can't say goodbye and want to adopt. More than one board member has become a foster failure (cough, cough) over the years. The single most important outcome is to place them in a wonderful home together.

Let us know if you can help.

Welcome Arftoo-D2!

He is about 7 months old, and around 40 lbs.

He is very active and playful. Dog and people friendly.

Seems to be almost housetrained but would need structure as all young dogs do.

Looking to get him into foster or forever family starting the end of next week! 💜🐾

Godot is in urgent need of either a foster or forever family!

He is being returned back to us as he has started to not get along with the other resident dogs.

He is otherwise dog friendly, likely too bouncy still for small children or cats.

Please help us!

❤🐾 Last Thursday, with over 450 animals in our care, we announced that we had reached capacity. In order to free up kennel space for countless animals animals in need of our services, we waived adoption fees at our Brunswick Campus for animals over six months old for three days. We are thrilled to share that during those three days, 111 animals found new, loving homes.

We are overwhelmed and humbled by the incredible outpouring of love and support from the public. THANK YOU to everyone who shared our initial post, helping it reach over 200,000 people. THANK YOU to everyone who visited the shelter, adopted a pet, and sent us good wishes. We've already received wonderful photos and updates from many adopters, and we're delighted to see how well everyone is doing. THANK YOU to everyone who offered kind, encouraging words. THANK YOU to everyone who patiently waited in our lobby as we processed more adoptions at one time than ever before. Your support during our time of need means the world to us.

Because of you, we can continue to shelter and care for more animals in need. We are incredibly fortunate to be part of such a compassionate community. Thank you. ❤🐾

Meet Jacob and Popsicle!

They are both in need of foster homes or forever families starting this Saturday!

🐾 Jacob is the black one. He is only a baby at 6 months and he is only about 40 lbs.

He loves other pups and is super playful. He also loves people.

Still a baby so he will need work on the basics but he learns quickly.

Hasn’t been tested with cats.

🐾 Popsicle is absolutely beautiful. She is around 2 years old and is about 50 lbs. She has a blue and a brown eye!

She has shown to be pretty neutral with other dogs. But she also has been healing from an injury to her leg so unsure if the two are related. She seems to like Jacob though. She also loves people.

Also hasn’t been tested with cats.

Please let us know!

So Miss Phoebe is getting spayed on Thursday, 7/25. It is at Animal Welfare Society in Kennebunk.

Can anyone bring her down for 8 am and then pick her up after 3 pm to bring her back to the rescue?

We would love for her to heal in a home but unfortunately no one has stepped forward to be a foster. She is good with other dogs with proper intros but really needs a quiet spot for a little bit to heal.

Please let us know if you can drive her to her appointment!
