Meet Charlie
Hi, I’m Charlie.
This dog rescue organization is named after me.
My sister and I were in cages, sleeping on a cold concrete floor and getting lousy food. It was crowded and they had to make room because more dogs were coming.
If we hadn’t been rescued, things would not have ended well for us.
Some of my friends are in the same terrible situation and they need help.
Will you help me save my friends?
Let’s make sure they get a new life in a warm and loving home.
Save a life. Adopt one of my friends.
Lets go!
Can you please hurry?
My friends are waiting!
Is it OK if I drive?

Meet Charlie's Friends
More Dogs and Puppies coming in mid September
August was a huge success - lots of Rescue dogs adopted!
Charlie (with help from humans) rescued lots of his friends so far this year. They are very happy dogs now that they have been adopted by their new families. Scroll down to see the dogs and puppies that will be arriving in Maine and ready for adoption soon.
None of this would be possible without our wonderful volunteers and sponsors. The happy faces on kids, adults and wiggly, tail wagging dogs makes all the effort worthwhile. With your continued support, we will make 2019 even better than last year!
All dogs and puppies adopted through Rescue Charlie’s Friends are up to date on all their vaccinations, have been spayed or neutered and have a microchip so that if they are ever lost, they can be returned to their family.
Nick
Nick is a male Husky, Basset and Pyrenees Mix, seven or eight months old.

“Nick is a super sweet boy! Very relaxed and has a great demeanor. He gets along great with other dogs but does not prefer puppies. He is not food aggressive at our house at all. He loves kids and is motivated by attention over treats.
Nick is not very well trained. We are working on house training and basic commands.. he will need a patient family ❤ he is amazing with children!”
Hi, I’m Nick. I am very loving and playful. I would love nothing more than to be your very best friend ever. Will you please adopt me?

This is NOT COOL. Get me OUT of here! Please!

Click Here and Read Daisy’s Amazing Story of Cancer, Rejection, Abandonment and finally Adoption!
Daisy and her brother were dumped in a rural Alabama shelter. Her brother was adopted but Daisy was not.
Why hasn’t anyone snatched Daisy up? She’s a GORGEOUS Boxer. She’s potty trained, spayed, GREAT with people, kids, dogs and even cats.
Daisy hasn’t gotten adopted because she has a large tumor on her leg. The vet believes the tumor is cancerous and far too involved and complicated to remove.
Daisy just needs a place to live out the rest of her days in a loving, understanding environment.
Daisy is in a tough spot. The tumor on her left rear leg is cancerous and is too involved to be removed surgically. It doesn’t seem to be bothering her much or causing pain, at least not yet. We don’t know how long she will last but this is very likely a hospice situation.

Luna loves kids and adults. She is good with other dogs and even with cats.
I’m Luna. I am already house broken. I am good with other dogs, cats and kids. I am past the puppy stage of eating your shoes and getting into mischief. I’m ready to be your best friend ever!
I am hoping that you will adopt me into your family.
Leo
Leo is a one year old male Pomeranian.
I’m Leo. I am already house broken and I am OK with being in a crate. I am good with other dogs. My family dumped me at a shelter because of “family problems”. I am hoping for a new family with fewer problems.
Leo loves kids and adults. He is good with other dogs.
Rocket and Groot
Rocket and Groot are brothers. They are four month old Shepherd / Husky mixes. They will be in Maine and ready for adoption in the middle of September.
I’m Rocket. I don’t know how I got that name, but I think it’s a pretty cool name.
I just want to be a part of a family. Will you adopt me? By the way, if you adopt me you can call me anything you like.
They call me Groot. I’m not thrilled with that name. If you adopt me you can all me anything you like, in fact anything would be better than “Groot”.
Just adopt me and we can work it out, OK?

I am good with kids, people and other dogs.
Will you adopt me?
I am scared out of my wits. I used to have a family. I don’t know what I did that was so bad they dumped me on the side of the road. Oh sure, the people where I am now treat me good and give me plenty of good food and fresh water. They even pet me and talk to me. But I used to have a REAL family. I just want to be a part of a family again.
I would be sooo much happier if I were on your lap.

Here's Joule
Joule is an eight month old female Siberian Husky mix. She weighs 45 – 50 pounds.
Hi, my name is Joule. I would wag my tail for you, but I don’t have one anymore. I lost it when I got hit by a car. I was lucky. It could have been a lot worse.
Will you please adopt me? I’m good with people, kids and other dogs. My Foster introduced me to cats and found out that I am fine with them too. I would have told her if she had just asked. No problems.

What people are saying
I adopted a puppy from Rescue Charlie’s Friends on June 2, 2018 named August. My thirteen year old dog had passed away the month before.
I renamed him. Bud Lite. Bud because he is my Buddy and Lite because he is the Lite of my life.
I am some what of a hermit, but Buddy gets me out walking everyday. We have met many wonderful people and other dogs on our walks.
He means everything to me.
PLEASE keep up the good work you are doing both for the dogs and the families that are fortunate enough to adopt them.
From Foster to Adopter
I have always been a dog person.
For as long as I can remember I have had a special bond with these four legged loves.
When my karma died I thought that my heart would rip in two. To me, and many other pet owners, a dog is very much a part of your family, another child. There is nothing like the love that a dog has for their humans.
For many years I have wanted another dog, but as we all know it’s a lot of work and I’ve got enough going on in my life, Ha!
Fostering has been wonderful, it helps teach my kids responsibility, it shows them the importance of volunteer work and helping other beings, we get to have puppies around, and we got to save all of these beautiful dogs who otherwise wouldn’t have it so great.
I would highly recommend it for anyone out there who is a dog lover. It’s hard, yes, because you do fall in love, but it also gives life so much meaning, and it’s such an amazing feeling to see these dogs go to a new special home after coming from not so great circumstances.
This dog right here came into our life by chance. We are going away and the rescue just needed help with her for the weekend so they asked us. From the moment she got into our car, something was different. There was an immediate bond with my oldest and when we took her home it quickly extended to everyone. It just felt like she was coming home. We were absolutely not thinking about getting another dog right now, but just like Hazel, we absolutely could not let her go. She just fit. Even Hazel is realizing that she has a new body. This poor sweet dog had a rough beginning, but we’re here to make sure that the rest of her life is a grand one! I am so thankful that this sweet soul chose us.
