Meet SNOWBALL! SNOWBALL was saved from a high-kill shelter in Texas and arrived safely at Give a Dog a Home Rescue in Sebec, Maine on August 3rd, 2024. We welcome adopters from across the East Coast and Canada — many of our families travel to meet their new best friend! Health & Background ✅ Neutered ✅ Rabies and core vaccines up to date ✅ Monthly preventatives ✅ Heartworm and tick tested negative ✅ Microchipped with 24PetWatch ⚖️ Weighed approximately 60 pounds in early August Estimated date of birth: September 2023 Breed unknown — we encourage families to look at photos and videos to make their own assessment! SNOWBALL’s Personality Sweet, gentle, and sensitive boy Initially scared in the kennels, so he was brought to the house where he settled in beautifully with the senior dogs Ignores the cats — calm and respectful Excellent with other dogs — great with all sizes and ages Best friends with TANIA (rescued from South Korea) — they sleep together, play together, and have become each other’s emotional support A little skittish with sudden movements, but with time, builds strong trust — now comes up for affection and morning cuddles Nervous on the leash when alone, but walks with much more confidence when with TANIA Ideal home would be one that’s calm, loving, and active — providing plenty of physical and mental enrichment Snowball & TANIA — The Perfect Pair Since TANIA’s sister passed away, she and SNOWBALL have formed an inseparable bond They bring out the best in each other and we would love to see them adopted together by a family ready to continue nurturing their friendship and confidence What SNOWBALL Needs A family that understands the needs of a shy dog and will provide positive experiences, patience, and encouragement Mental and physical exercise — he’s still a young dog with energy to burn and curiosity to feed High-quality food, fun toys, and a loving routine Regular veterinary wellness care Adoption Details Adoption Fee: $350 Location: Sebec, Maine Complete and submit the adoption application Upon approval, schedule an appointment to visit the rescue and meet SNOWBALL (and hopefully TANIA too!) ⏱️ Applications are typically processed within 1–2 days if references are reachable Click here to complete the Adoption Application Want to See More of SNOWBALL?
