𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗔𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁 𝗱𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗢𝗩𝗜𝗗-𝟭𝟵In our effort to promote social distancing, we have changed our adoption process. If you are seriously interested in adopting a pet, you must call to make an appointment. For dogs, we encourage you to have a specific dog in mind that you'd like to meet though you will have the opportunity to meet other dogs as well. For cats, we understand that folks may want to meet several cats to get to know them before making a decision. That will be possible during your appointment. We ask that you only make an appointment if you are seriously interested in adopting.𝗔𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗯𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 (𝟮𝟬𝟳) 𝟵𝟴𝟱-𝟯𝟮𝟰𝟰 𝗲𝘅𝘁. 𝟭𝟮𝟱 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝟭𝟭 𝗮𝗺 - 𝟯 𝗽𝗺 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸 𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗳𝗳 𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆. If no one picks up, please do not leave a voicemail as that will not guarantee an appointment. Understand that appointments will be limited to 5 each day, as to promote social distancing. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to find our pets home and keep our community safe at the same time.As always, adoptions are first come, first serve, meaning the person who calls first gets their choice of available appointment times and thus his/her choice of animals to meet and adopt. We are not able to extend holds on any animals at this time, so we ask interested adopters to make their adoption decision during their appointment and be prepared to take their new pet with home with you.Please note: our adoption pages are REAL TIME, so as soon as an animal is adopted, it will "disappear" from the website.______________________________________________Interested in learning more about Henry? Give us a call first at (207) 985-3244. "Hi, I'm Henry! I'm a Harrier breed, which I've been told is like a beagle, just waaaay more awesome (and by waaaay more awesome, I mean high-energy). I love to be busy, patrolling a farm, working in the training room with my trainer friends or romping in the snow! Check out the video of me on one of our recent snow days."Harriers are very active, athletic dogs with great stamina and energy. Henry likes to keep both his body and his mind active by staying busy and working. He'll need an adult-only home with calm and confident people who understand him and help him achieve his best life, which is a smart balance of work and play. Because he likes to keep busy, he enjoys games and toys that challenge him mentally and physically. His favorite game is tug and his favorite toys are frisbees and balls he can chase. He would love a big yard to run around in or even a farm that he can explore. He previously lived on a farm and would be happy to return to being a farm dog.Henry is best described as "not a hugger." You've heard friends or relatives tell you they don't like to hug, right? Well, Henry's the same way. He doesn't always enjoy being petted and would rather interact by working together. Hence, his need for a family that understands him and can give him the active, stimulating enrichment he needs to thrive. If you're looking for a dog you can pet and snuggle with while you are watching TV, Henry is not the one for you. If you're looking for a dog who will sit near you and chew a bone while you watch TV, then perhaps Henry could be your guy. If you're looking for a dog to be around while you're working outside, then perhaps Henry could be your guy. If you have another dog or other dogs looking for a new playmate, then perhaps Henry could be your dogs' new friend. He has lived with other dogs and has made lots of new canine friends here at AWS.Our Canine Training Team would like to offer support to Henry's new people, post adoption. Henry and his new people will be eligible for one free six week Basic Obedience class or one private consult with one of our trainers.
