Rex Animal Orphanage in Old Town Maine

Stories of rex old town maine and animal rescue old town maine

Rex, a striking 4-year-old canine, has been a resident at the Animal Orphanage in Old Town, Maine, for nearly a year.

 

Known for his boundless energy and affectionate nature, Rex enjoys walks, playtime, and even swimming.

 

He thrives best as the only pet in a household without small children or other animals.

 

Rex requires a patient and understanding owner who can provide the structure and love he needs.

 

Managing his thyroid condition is essential, and he should be fed separately due to potential resource guarding.

 

In December, Rex was featured in a prominent magazine, highlighting his journey and the dedication of the Animal Orphanage staff.

 

This recognition underscores the shelter's commitment to finding forever homes for animals like Rex.

 

Established in 1990, the Animal Orphanage has been a sanctuary for countless stray and abandoned animals, offering them care and a second chance at life.

 

As a no-kill shelter, they provide a safe environment for various animals, including dogs, cats, and small mammals.

 

Located at 71 Airport Road, the shelter operates with the support of dedicated staff, volunteers, and the local community.

 

For those interested in adopting Rex or supporting the shelter's mission, visiting their website or contacting them directly is encouraged.

 

By opening your heart and home to animals like Rex, you contribute to a compassionate community where every animal is valued and loved.
