​Mr. Foxy was brought to the rescue as a stray by the local animal control officer to be held on a 7 day stray hold to see if his owners come to look for him. He had been staying with a family who had taken him in for two days when they first found him. Since, no one came to claim him, he was transferred over into the rescue and is now available for adoption. He is neutered, rabies, core vaccines, de-wormed, heartworm prevention, micro-chipped and heartworm/tick disease tested negative. He weighs 8.15 pounds and has an estimated to be around  15 June 2017.

When he was initially brought here, he was, as to be expected very scared. I let him settle in and get used to his new temporary surroundings and he soon found his way to the back of the chair. He pretty much hangs out there or the back of the sofa, but over the past few days has got a lot more confident and enjoys walking and being among all the other dogs in the house ranging from 6 pound chihuahua's to 120 pound German Shepherds.  He likes to talk to you when you are not paying him any attention, although he is not a yappy dog, or hasn't been so far. I can't really say if he is house trained or not since I have dog doors in the house that the dogs come and go in and out as they please. I do have pee pads down for the puppies and he will go and use them, or if I open the back porch door, he does bark and if I open the door he will dash out onto the back porch.

He is young and still active and so a family that goes on adventures is preferred. He walks great on the leash and is very curious of his surroundings. H e has never shown any kind of aggression at all, as mentioned she lives, eats and sleeps with lots of other dogs and enjoys their company and so a family with another dog would be great, but if not then it is important that he gets to play and interact with other dogs throughout his life. We do NOT recommend dog parks for several months until a bond and trust and knowing to read his body language has been gained.

We do NOT have cats or livestock at the rescue so cannot comment on how he will be near or around them. 

All dogs (except dogs saved from China) are available for adoption for an adoption fee of $550. Canadian adopters need to know that customs charge 15% taxes when entering into Canada. This fee is not negotiable and is used to cover the rescue costs of pulling, vetting, health certificate, transport from Texas to Maine, monthly preventatives, supplements, food and anything else that is needed.

If you feel that you have the heart and home to give this precious soul a wonderful life, please go to our website, under the APPLICATION tab, complete, then submit the APPLICATION. Our process takes around 2-4 days, and ensuring your references are aware that we will be calling, could speed up the process. Once you have been approved, we discuss any questions in regards to the dog you are wanting to adopt, then you complete and submit the contract, make payment and then we can work out the pick up / transport arrangements.

Please do NOT submit an application if you are not looking to take home a new best friend within the next few weeks.
