MINNIE & MICKEY were saved from a high kill shelter in Texas where dogs have just 3 dogs to be saved. MINNIE is spayed, core vaccines, rabies, de-wormed, monthly preventatives and micro-chipped and at the time of rescue in the middle of April 2019,  weighed around 5.00 pounds. 

MICKEY is neutered, core vaccines, rabies, de-wormed, monthly preventatives and micro-chipped and at the time of rescue in the middle of April 2019,  weighed around 6.20 pounds.

They have an estimated date of birth of 30 January 2019 and are listed as Dachshund mix . We have no way of knowing the exact breed, it is up to individuals to decide what breed they think is most likely. They are bonded and so we intend to adopt them together and the adoption fee is $1,000.

We do not have cats or livestock at the rescue so are unable to comment how any dog is or will be around them. ​

MINNIE and MICKEY are a fun loving pair, they are very bonded and although play with the other dogs, always end up playing together and sleeping cuddled up together. They are great with the other dogs and love to run and charge around. They are extremely affectionate and love being up on the chair or sofa snuggling.

As with all dogs they will need basic and advanced training so that they can learn their families rules, boundaries and expectations. They are very responsive and I feel that they will be easy and fun to train and will be eager to please. They are gentle pups and I think would make great family dogs.

They are puppies and so there is a lot of work involved and although they are small they can still be very mischievous and will soon be teething.

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. http://www.giveadogahome-sanantonio.org

​ALL Dogs are LOCATED AT THE RESCUE IN SEBEC, MAINE.  We post in various states along the east coast and Canada where we have had lots of successful adoptions to enable more exposure for these beautiful saved souls. Families will need to be prepared to travel to the rescue to meet and take home their new best friend. Sebec is located just outside the towns of Dover-Foxcroft and Milo (approx 8 miles) and approx 45 miles from Bangor. There are also lots of hotels, motels, pet friendly accommodations  and wonderful camp-sites for the more adventurous families and what a great way to get to know your new best friend. If there are options to arrange transport, we will work with you to make it happen.
