Monty the Boston Terrier Available for Adoption

A Boston Terrier named Monty who is up for adoption came by the Agatha & Louise and A&L Home Boston monty 005250photo showroom yesterday to say hi (pictured to the right). He is a sweet heart. He is very affectionate and seems to be well socialized. For more details on Monty check out his blog.

Islesboro, Maine Cottage Rental on Penobscot Bay **Update**

**Phone calls and emails are starting to come in more frequently now about our Islesboro Cottage Rental...Here is an update...The Islesboro cottage is now available July 18th- August 1st and August 8th thru Labor Day***

Are you looking for an Islesboro Island cottage rental this summer? We have a rare opportunity for an CABINiss40photo250 Islesboro rental. Our small cottage is located on East Penobscot Bay...literally "on" East Penobscot Bay with fantastic views of Cape Rosier and Blue Hill.

Our family Islesboro cottage sleeps 4 (if the four of you know each other well). There is a loft with twin beds and a downstairs bedroom with a queen size bed. This bedroom is located above the rocks (the room with the black shutters in the photo to the right)...you can literally hear the waves at high tide crashing on the rocks below. There is also a shower, living room, dining area and a deck looking over Penobscot Bay.

Islesboro is located 3 miles off the coast of Maine in Penobscot Bay. You get to the island by ferry out of Lincolnville about 5 miles north of Camden. The ferry takes 25 minutes. Our cottage is located in Sabbathday Harbor just south of Ryder's Cove on the North East side of Islesboro. It is the perfect location for kayaking, boating, biking or just spending some quiet time writing or reading.

Agatha & Louise at 322 Fore Street, Portland, Maine- Look for the Dogs in the Windows

As many of you know Agatha & Louise and A&L Home have moved down a block to 322 Fore Street in Windows photo 350 Portland Maine's Old Port. We are located right on the corner of Fore Street & Pearl Street (2nd Floor).

A customer called and asked us if there was an "easy way" to find our new location when driving down Pearl Street. The answer is YES...When you get to the light at the intersection of Fore and Pearl just look up and you'll see Agatha & Louise looking at you...

"I've seen a look in dogs eyes,
a quickly vanishing look of amazed contempt,
and I am convinced that basically dogs think humans are nuts."

Canine Express Transports Dogs from Indiana to New England

Canine Express has transported over 4,000 dogs to New England from Indiana sine 2004. For an exampleDog_molly_0609photo200 of the sweet dogs they transport for adoption check out this awesome puppy named Molly at the Animal Welfare Society in Kennebunk, Maine. Good News...Molly was adopted over the weekend!

According to their website: Canine Express is an all-volunteer project that transports dogs from Indiana to the New England area for adoption. New England has done a great job with their spay/neuter programs and can now accept dogs from other areas for adoptions to loving homes. We typically transport dogs once a month with a caravan of 4-5 cargo vans - it's quite a sight on the highway!

Since December, 2004 the Number of Indiana Shelter Dogs Transported to:

Our New England Shelter and Rescue Partners: 4,169

 The Cleveland Animal Protective League:  479

Grand total:  4,648

To see if a Shelter or Rescue Group near you in New England participates in the Canine Express Project visit their New England Partners  page and if your closer to Indiana check out their Indiana page.

Adopt your next dog. You'll feel the love...
