About CRUZ

CRUZ and his brother ENZO was saved from a shelter in the south. CRUZ is neutered, rabies, age-appropriate vaccines, dewormed and on monthly preventatives. He weighs around 20 pounds and has an estimated date of birth of 6 January 2022 . We have no way of knowing for sure what breed he is and so it is up to potential adopters to look at his pictures, video's many more can be found on the rescue website, and decide for themselves. CRUZ is very shy and seems lost since his brother was adopted. We feel he would do best in a home with another dog, or a family who wants to adopt him with one of his rescue friends. He will need time and patience to gain trust, but is a handsome, sweet, deserving boy. CRUZ is located at Give a Dog a Home Rescue in Sebec and is available for adoption for an adoption fee of $550. �'�� Dog Application Form - https://www.giveadogahome-rescue.org/forms/form?formid=5838 Dogs have access and use dog doors to go outside, they will not know to let you know they need to go outside, so families must expect accidents and be prepared to teach your new dog to let you know when they need to go outside. The rescue buys food in bulk, by the truck load and there are a variety of brands and flavours. None of the food given is less than a 4* food rating. There have not been issues with eating any of the varying foods. It is important that you do your research on the ingredients and speak to your vet or a nutritionist on grain vs grain free! �'��You MUST understand that dogs need time to decompress and adapt to their new environment and home. It is a HUGE transition they make from the kill shelter, being vetted, on transport for 3 days and arriving in Maine where the temperature and such is very different to what they have only known. In rescue there is what is known as the '3 Point Rule' Days 1-3 your dog is stressed, anxious, confused as to where they are now. Weeks 1-3 your dog is adjusting, settling in, learning things. At the 3-month point, your dog understands they are home, and have built up a trusting relationship where they feel loved and secure. If you feel that you have the heart and home to give this precious soul a wonderful life, please go to our website, under the ADOPTION INFO tab, complete, then submit the APPLICATION. Our process takes around 1-2 days, and ensuring your references are aware that we will be calling, could speed up the process.
