Rescue Me ID: 13-05-16-00049Reagan (female)

Golden Retriever Mix    Age: Young Adult

Compatibility: Not Good w/ Other Dogs, Good w/ Most Cats, Good w/ Adults (Not Kids) 
Personality: Average Energy, Very Dominant 
Health: Spayed, Vaccinations Current, Fearful/Anxious 

     It is with immense sadness that we have decided to rehome our beloved baby girl Reagan. We rescued her about six years ago. She is roughly seven years, and we believe she may have some Golden Retriever in her (amongst other breeds, she is a true blue mutt). She is highly intelligent, easy to train, loves running, watching birds and snuggling. We are looking for a forever home that has no children or other dogs. She may be ok with cats, but other small animals are not suggested. She would thrive in an environment where her owners love being outside, have some experience with dogs and are willing to spend time with her providing appropriate ... (Read More)boundaries. There is no rehoming fee and she will come with two crates, toys, tick/flea medication, etc. She also has a contract with Tufts Behavior Clinic for Small Animals to help with behavior modification. She is up to date on all her shots. I can't stress enough how lovely and smart she is. Unfortuntately for our lifestyle and situation we can't be her forever home. Please only serious inquiries.

Rescue Me ID: 13-05-05-00039Jake (male)

Shih Tzu    Age: Adult

Compatibility: Good w/ Most Dogs, Good w/ Most Cats, Good w/ Adults (Not Kids) 
Personality: Average Energy, Somewhat Dominant 
Health: Needs Vaccinations 

    Male shihtzu, 8 years old, medium size for the breed, very handsome, champagne colored. Gets along well with a quiet and affectionate adult. Becomes moody on occasion and has an aggressive streak, no biting, but will lunge and bark. This happens rarely. Could be described as mostly happy with a touch of moodiness. He is affectionate and loyal and loving, but children shouldn't be part of the household. Other animals okay, just be aware he will show his annoyance with a bark, then go sit by himself.

Animal ID: 13-04-10-00468Sadi (female)

Siberian Husky    Age: Young Adult

Compatibility: Good with Kids and Adults 
Personality: Average Energy, Average Temperament 
Health: Spayed 

    Sadi is an all white husky we rescued from a puppy mill. She is one of two huskies that we took, both are loving and sweet. Sadi is great with other dogs she lived with at least two dogs most of her life. She is also great with people, we have not had her around too many children under the age of 12 but I do think she would do well with them. Never barks... even when someone is coming in your house. We adore this dog but with a family of 7 are finding we dont have the time to give this breed of dog what it needs. She wants to be outside, all types of weather so a back yard is a must. On top of that she should have a social life (dog parks ... (Read More)agility doggy day care) All recommendations only because we are giving a part of our family away to give her more then she can get here. Here she has love food attention, but not enough exorcise or any real outlets for an animal that needs to run and hunt. NOT good with small animals like most huskies she has the drive to hunt. As I said before Sadi does not bark. She does however like to talk, not quite a husky howl but when coming home from work you will be greeted with a talking pup. (Less)

Health: Neutered, Vaccinations Current 

    Digger is a 1 year old cutie pie that does very well with people. He lives with a male boxer two kids ages 3 & 11 and one cat. He gets along with other dogs as well but mostly with unfixed males he seems to have an issue with. So yes he does have some dog aggression, not with all dogs.He is in need of proper training to help him with his selective dog issues.He is a great dog plays very well with the kids and loves going on walks. He is very attentive when going out for a stroll and absolutely loves belly rubs. I have my almost 5 year old boxer and that's about all I can handle right now I had a major surgery less than a year ago and ... (Read More)believe that digger deserves a bit more activity than I can provide for him. I have plenty of pictures and much more info about him. He also loves chewing on ice if you ask him 'do you want ice he runs over to the fridge and plots his butt down immediately & waits patiently. He is such a cutie & I'm still torn if I will go through with this but if I find him a better situation then his home here then I will consider relocating him to a new home.He is crate trained and house broken he uses doggy bells we have hung on the door for him. He is my baby & loves all but is very close to myself so I'm hoping it will be a couple or a family since I tend to all of his needs with my kids he is use to a family setting. He does very well with my husband too!! He is such a cuddly kind of boy and is a lap dog for sure. If he sounds like he might be a good match please contact me. (Less)

Health: Neutered, Vaccinations Current 

     Three years ago we picked Jaxson up in Bath Maine from a women who rescues dogs from kill shelters. He had a hole in his ear and bites all over him and had mange. After months of love and attention and bringing him into our lives he became the best dog for my husband and I. Unfortunately for Jaxson, the family started to grow and now we have a 7 month old. Jaxson loves him to pieces but our little one is allergic to him. He has been very good with our baby and loves all kids and adults. Jaxson needs a good forever home where he can by himself and just lay around all day and play outside in a big yard. Unfortunately we thought we would have ... (Read More)a home and yard by now and we don't. We live in the city in an apartment and it's not fair to him. He is very well house trained, knows how to sit, lay down, and stay. He has never destroyed anything in our home. He is a great loving family dog. He needs a forever home where it will be just him and no other dogs. We don't know his background but he doesn't get along with dogs and other animals. We hope to find him a loving family that has a yard and time to spend with our sweet boy! (Less)

PIease Read Before Adopting a Dog in New Hampshire
    Dogs can make good pets in New Hampshire if they match your IifestyIe. Dogs have a reputation for being "man's best friend" for excellent reasons. Dogs are wonderful companions. Many breeds, in addition to being affectionate, devoted members of the family, are useful working dogs and guardians. Most dogs form tight bonds with their humans, and need to be cared for like the valuable family members they are. But sadly, some owners do not live up to the responsibility and involvement it takes to properly care for a dog throughout its life. Dogs can become the victims of neglect or active abuse. Some dogs receive tender, attentive care from their owners, but no longer have a home after their owner passes away or experiences a major life event that makes him unable to keep his dog. There are many more dogs than there are homes for dogs, and dogs that are not spayed or neutered can accidentally produce large numbers of puppies, exacerbating overpopulation. For this reason, three to four million dogs, many of them perfectly healthy and wonderful animals, are euthanized in the U.S. each year.

    Many people get excited about owning a new dog, decide to get a puppy, and then pick one out at a pet shop or visit a breeder with a new litter. However, there are so many wonderful, friendly dogs in need of adoption, including puppies and purebreds. Some of these dogs might even be a better fit for a family than a new puppy; for instance, some adult dogs in need of adoption are already housebroken and obedience trained. Adoption is typically much less expensive than purchasing a dog. People who adopt dogs find the experience extremely rewarding, bond very closely with their dogs, and have the added satisfaction of knowing that one less animal has to be euthanized. If your family is ready for a canine companion, please consider adopting a dog!

lnteresting Dog Trivia Low-Cost New Hampshire Spay & Neuter Clinics
    All dogs, even cute little lap dogs, are ultimately descended from domesticated wolves. There are hundreds of dog breeds with extremely varied characteristics and sizes, from the tiniest teacup Chihuahua to the hugest Mastiff, but all of these breeds make up just one species Canis lupus familiaris and can theoretically breed with one another (although there can be practical and health related constraints.) The dog was the earliest domesticated animal.
