Jolly

Hi, I’m Jolly. I don’t need to tell you I am one fine looking puppy. You can see that for yourself. What you can’t see in a picture is that I am really, really sweet and I love everybody. I would love to lay next to you on the couch. Sound good? Just adopt me and I promise we will have lots of good times together!
Fred and Barney

I’m Fred, I’m a boy and I am hoping that you will adopt me. My brother Barney needs a new family too. We will blend in with your family and love you forever. Will you help us?
Hey, we’re trying to get adopted here and this is the best they can do for pictures of us? We are MUCH better looking than these pictures show. There is a lot of competition to get adopted – just look at the other puppies up for adoption. They get great pictures and we get – these. I’ll ask them for some better pictures but in the meantime, rest assured we are good looking dogs. You can take my word for it. I would never lie to you.
Ferry
Ferry is a six month old Retriever mix. She is a female.
Look – I’m on the couch and I’m not leaving any hair behind. Isn’t that good? Or would you prefer a shaggy dog that leaves its hair in piles all over the place? It’s up to you. Why not take me home?
I’m Ferry. I know, I don’t like the name much either but if you will adopt me, we can pick out a new name for me, OK?
I’m a really good dog. I promise I won’t eat your shoes. Is it OK if I just play with them and carry them around a bit?
Comet

I can hardly wait to get to Maine. I hear it is really beautiful and that the people are really good to their dogs. I hope someone adopts me. I have lots of love to give.

Look at me. I have heterochromia. One eye blue and one brown.
Charlie

Why not just take me home? I’ll be a good dog and your very best friend. I love to go on walks, ride in your car or just lay down and watch TV with you, especially shows about dogs.

The Ridgeback Crew
These beautiful puppies are eleven week old Rhodesian Ridgeback mixes. All three are boys.
My brothers and I are great looking dogs. We are only eleven weeks old. We love everybody and if you give us a chance, I think you will love us too. The only hard part will be deciding which one of us to adopt. Of course, dare I say it, you could adopt two or even all three of us if you want. OK, OK, I don’t want to be pushy. I was just saying…
Bullseye
Bullseye is a one year old Whippet mix. He is the father of Bubbles and Splash.
I was in a shelter and it was crowded. I was thinking that things might not end well for me. That’s when I found out that my new friend Charlie was going to rescue me. I could not be happier. Now, I’m hoping that you will adopt me.

Lil Ricky

Hi, I’m a male Chihuahua mix about three years old. I’m not sure how I wound up here, up for adoption. I had a family and I thought everything was fine. Guess something came up and they had to get rid of me.
Please, just adopt me and we can start a new life together.
I’m really cute and I would love to lay next to you on the couch. You busy tonight? Want to adopt me?

Terrier / Dachshund Mix Puppies

I’m a boy. I know “Cuddles” is not much of a name for a boy but don’t let it fool you. I’m no sissy.
I’m a girl.
I’m a girl.
We are a great bunch of puppies. My brother is a good guy and my sisters are totally lovable. I’m not bad myself.

According to Mom we are a Dachshund / Terrier mix. That means when we grow up we won’t be very big and we will still fit on your lap.

I’m an Australian Shepherd mix. I’m a male and I’m one or two years old.

They named me “Henderson” and I like the name. I’m one and a half years old and I’m a Jack Russell mix. I’m proud of being a Jack Russell. When I grow up, I want to be just like Eddie, the dog that stared on Frasier.

Rex is a one year old male Labrador mix. He is good with kids and other dogs. He is very sweet.
They just left me here. I’m really sorry I about the shoe. I didn’t mean to ruin it. Please. I’m really, really, really sorry. Please take me home. I promise I will never, ever do it again.
Hi, my name is Rex! My foster mom says I am small but mighty. If I could talk I’d tell her all about my previous life, but sadly they just have to create my own story. I would consider myself a petite Lab. So, if you’ve been looking for a lab, but wasn’t sold on the size I am your man. I love to chase the ball and play with my brothers. I even enjoy my human babies who are 3 and 1 years old. When I’ve had my fun outside I’ll lightly scratch on the door to say, “hey, I am done”. I love my crate and sleep so well at night. I love to eat my breakfast and dinner, and currently working to build my body mass backup. If you add me to your family I know you will love me forever because I will love and be a great family member❤️

DOG OF THE WEEK

Smokey

Smokey likes to get all the attention. He will do best in a home where he is the only dog.
Murphy
Murphy is a Great Pyrenees / Golden Labrador mix. He is ten months old and weighs about eighty pounds
They gave me a bath. It wasn’t my idea, but I went along with it just to humor the human. She thought it was fun.
Please adopt me!
He is housebroken and except for begging for food at the high chair, he minds his manners well.
Murphy is good with people and kids. We don’t know about cats.
Murphy has been with a Foster who says that he shows some jealousy when her other dogs seem to be getting all the attention. He might do best in a home where he is the only dog.
He was also with another Foster where there were very young children and no other dogs. He was exceptionable. No food aggression, great with the children. The perfect dog. Murphy is crate and potty trained.
Shake it off! I never said I wanted a bath!
The Spice Crew
These good looking Spaniel mixes are waiting for you. Two girls and four boys, all lovable.

Basil, Pepper, and Sage died – Parvo
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. 
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.
DOG OF THE WEEK
This dog is
Squiggy
Full of energy. Wants to know everything that is going on. Squiggy loves everybody – kids, adults – loves ’em all. Great with other dogs. We don’t know about cats.
Squiggy is well socialized and gets along with everyone. His sisters, Laverne and Shirley have already been adopted. In fact of the thirty adults and puppies that arrived on November 2nd, Squiggy is the only one not yet adopted. He needs a new home!
Squiggy is in Maine now and staying with a Foster.
Squiggy is a four month old Labrador mix.
Hi, I’m Squiggy. I’m a really great dog and I can’t figure out why, out of thirty dogs that arrived here in Maine last week, I am the only one not yet adopted. I am a sweet, playful, loyal love-bug but no one has adopted me. I just don’t get it.
