About DRAKO | |

Be sure to read ALL information provided.
DRAKO was saved from a high kill shelter in Texas where dogs often have only 3 days to be saved. DRAKO is neutered, rabies, core vaccines, heartworm/tick disease tested negative for all. He is de-wormed, monthly preventatives and microchipped. At the time of rescue at the end of November 2020, he weighed around 21 pounds and has an estimated date of birth 13 November 2019
. We cannot say for sure what breed he is, so we expect families to do their own research on his look and size and decide what breed you think he is and if you have the lifestyle suitable for his needs.
At the time of writing Drako has only been at the rescue a few days, so there is not much information that can be provided.
We saved him with his brother Charcoal. Both boys were in quarantine in the shelter for bites, however, I have yet to find the actual reason. The shelter reported that both boys were very sweet and I agree they are beyond adorable. Although brothers, I have kept them in separate kennels, albeit next to each other, until I get the details. It could have been two un-neutered teenagers, just getting into a quarrel, but chances are not worth the risk so until I get more time or more information they can be neighbours.
Both boys are total love bugs, they never stop wagging not just their tails, but their bodies, they can be vocal when they want attention. They have the cuties faces and personalities to match.
Although a medium sized
dog, he is still active and
so we are looking for an active family who can give this sweet boy the lifestyle he needs to keep him happy and healthy.
More pictures and possible video's can be found on his page on the rescue website.
We are not able to say how he will be around cats or livestock.
All dogs use dog doors to go out and do their business or to enjoy the cool, fresh weather in their dog runs or communal areas. We cannot say if a dog is house-trained, however, we expect families to understand that all dogs need a transition period and accidents could happen and training is most definitely needed.
All dogs are fed Rachael Ray Nutrish PEAK Natural Dry Dog Food, Grain Free Western Grasslands Recipe with Bison. Rachael Ray Nutrish Peak Dog Food receives the Dog Food Advisor’s second-highest tier rating of 4.5 stars.
DRAKO is available for adoption for an adoption fee of $550 if adopted with his brother CHARCOAL the adoption fee for both boys will be $1,000
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, general day to day cost of running a brick and mortar rescue and anything else that is needed. Canadian adopters need to know that customs charge 15% taxes when entering into Canada.
Due to borders being closed, it is up to families to call the US and Canadian borders to find the current details on border crossing. Animal Welfare is deemed essential in the US, but quarantine rules entering back into Canada must be followed.

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.
