Nico

Nico is a 5-year-old boy who is a red & white. He's a good boy - loving and snuggly - and can be mischievous! He behaves really well with other dogs and cats, but he does resource guard, so needs to be separated from the pack to eat, and he is protective of his bed/ area. For these reasons, he cannot be in a home with kids. If you know his triggers and how to avoid them, Nico is no problem at all. His foster mom is glad to spend time describing those to any new potential family.

Ollie needs a secure yard - preferably with a privacy fence as he is known to climb chain link fences. He would also prefer a home without small children. He's doing well in his foster home, so we hope to have more details soon.

Thurston Howl

Thurston is a red and white boy who is around 6 years old. Here's what he has to say! "Hello! I'm Thurston Howl or TH to my friends. I am a young hound with lots of energy and a love of playtime. Fetching a ball and chasing toys around the house are among my favorite games. I also need a walk each day for my exercise. I can live with another dog but need a strong dog that can put me in my place. Otherwise, I can play a bit too rough, and I don't mean to be a bully. I can be a bit of a moody dog and do not like to be bothered when I am resting or sleeping. I do have a loud houndy bark that I use to show my displeasure with things that are not going my way or that are scary to me. I can also be over reactive to things that are not going my way. Every morning I get eye drops that I take for dry eye and will take for the rest of my life. If you think I would be perfect for you, let's set up a play date to meet in person."

Turner

Turner has visited a BHRG vet for a complete check up and is ready for adoption. He's a tri-colored boy who is around 5 1/2 years old and gets along with kids and other dogs. He rides well in a car, and enjoys walks although he does pull a bit on the leash. Turner is sweet and loving, but he can be a stinker at times and get into things that he shouldn't. Ziplock bags fascinate him, and he will get anything within reach like a loaf of bread, etc. But you can't get mad at him because he is so sweet. He is a good sleeper during the day, and he sleeps in his crate at night. Turner is dealing with skin allergies and is eating special food and taking medication. He will most likely always have skin/allergy issues, but the vet is helping him be as comfortable as possible. Turner is dog door trained and crate trained.

Vance

Vance is a tri-colored boy who is 4 1/2 years old. He’s a sweet, snuggly pup who’s happiest when he’s feeling safe and comfy at home with his people. He was previously returned to BHRG because he did not do well with the older, smaller female dog in the home. He does like some dogs, so would he would need to meet them first to make sure it’s a good match. He also has issues with separation anxiety and reactivity to new people and strangers. Because of this, he would probably do best with adults in a calm house without a lot of traffic. He may also do well in a quiet neighborhood or rural area where he can enjoy peaceful outside time. He’s on medication for anxiety and will need a patient family who is committed to helping him become a calm and confident pup.

Vance's Sponsors

  • Melissa Legg & Rick Reeves - Portland, ME. In memory of Miss Martha.
