Theo is a spirited 5-year-old mixed breed hoping to find his forever family at the Bangor Humane Society.

 

Despite his age, Theo is full of infectious energy and brings a spark of joy to every day.

 

He arrived as a stray, so his background with dogs, cats, or children isn’t known, and staff recommend he starts as the only pet in his new home.

 

All family members are encouraged to meet Theo, ensuring the perfect match.

 

This lovable pup is famous for carrying his treasured stuffed pickle toy everywhere and his “happy tail”—a wag so enthusiastic it sometimes leads to small tail boo-boos.

 

Settling into a caring, quiet household will help him heal and thrive.

 

Discover how this joyful companion could become a cherished part of your life by reaching out to the Bangor Humane Society today.

Making homemade dog treats is a fun and healthy way to spoil your furry companion.

 

Peanut butter and pumpkin are two flavors most dogs adore, but always check that your peanut butter doesn’t contain the toxic sweetener xylitol.

 

Just mix flour, eggs, pumpkin, peanut butter, and cinnamon, shape the dough, and bake until golden.

 

Once cooled, your pup can enjoy a fresh, tail-wagging reward.

 

Store these biscuits in an airtight container for a week, or freeze for longer freshness.

 

If you prefer to shop local, places like Sniff-n-Snack Barkery in Levant, Maine offer all-natural, preservative-free dog treats.

 

The Penobscot Valley Kennel Club even runs a dog food pantry, supporting pets across Penobscot and Hancock Counties.

 

Whether baking at home or choosing locally made treats, every effort helps ensure pets in our community stay happy and nourished.
