Lost Pets

We are sorry that you have lost your treasured companion.   The GAHS takes in stray dogs and cats brought to us by citizens, police officers or animal control officers from the municipalities of Auburn, Canton, Greene, Hebron (cats only), Leeds, Lewiston, Livermore, Minot, New Gloucester, Turner, Rumford, and Wales.

Please scroll to the bottom of this page to see all strays we currently have in our facility.

If you believe that your animal may have been brought into us as a stray please call us as soon as possible and leave a detailed message at 207-783-2311 or email us at lost@gahumane.org. 

We are thrilled to partner with Petco Love Lost — a central, searchable resource helping lost pets reunite with their families. 1 in 3 pets will go missing in their lifetime and almost 10 million pets go missing every year, but, together, we can change the outlook for lost pets. Petco Love Lost is a free, easy-to-use national resource, using patented pet facial recognition technology to make it easier than ever to find possible matches from community members, posts on NextDoor, and shelters like GAHS.

Please read our Tips for Finding Pets page for helpful tips to increase your chances of being reunited with your pet!

Below are the stray dogs and cats we are currently housing.  Please note that Maine law requires us to hold stray dogs for 6 days and stray cats for 48 hours only.  Please note that pets staying in our care will receive vaccinations and basic wellness care to ensure they do not become sick, and there will be a daily charge for the safe-keeping, care and feeding of the animal.
