We need six special adopters. 🥹
Have you ever met someone you don't want to be around or find yourself unhappy in large crowds or get nervous when strangers come up to you? If you answered yes to any of these, we may have your soul dog.
We have six dogs who need just a little adjusting to their routines to be their happiest doggy selves.
Let's start with Max the black lab- he is in board and train and doing fabulous. He is almost the perfect dog, but can get nervous when meeting new people, which comes across as sometimes making a low growl. Now, don't let that turn you away. Most of the rescue team also have a similar dog and we adjust accordingly to help our dogs feel comfortable. He is a real sweetheart and dog friendly! He is in PA
Evie is next up. She is dog friendly, fiercely loyal to her family, which has the downside of making strangers who walk in the house appear dangerous to her. She truly is as sweet as can be other than this protectiveness. She would thrive in a low traffic home. She is in PA
Mr. Friendly is our next boy- just recently testing heartworm negative- Congratulations Mr. Friendly!!- He is in a foster home. He is a great boy wonderful with humans but finds other dogs a source of grumpiness. He doesn't become Cujo when encountering other dogs, but he is unhappy with the playful antics of his fur foster siblings. We are looking for a home where he is an only dog. He is in Maine.
Minnie had a meet and greet and did amazing. No signs of any issues. She had one incident when a stranger walked into the house. But again, the rescue team has dogs like this and we restrain or move the dog to a safe area when someone needs to enter the property. This is very doable and if you feel you can manage that, Minnie would be a great addition to your home. We do know she has played wonderfully with other dogs. But since she is an only dog, we want to keep her life as normal as possible. We are looking for a home that is for an only dog, likes to exercise with their dog, and can safely restrain her when someone enters the house. She is in PA.
Old Max has had a tough journey. Like the others, he was dumped at a kill shelter, but already as an old man. To boot, he was heartworm positive. 😞 Luckily he was treated, but he is now needing a rehome due to a family crisis. Max has been incited by another dog and things escalated. Max has lived with other dogs with no problems, but a neighborhood dog (probably the neighborhood bully) got him all riled up. Because of this, he can be leash reactive, although he isn't always. We are looking for a home that is more rural where he can rest calmly and avoid the furry neighborhood bullies. He is in PA.
Chance- He is loving, intelligent, playful, crate trained, and wonderful in the home. After completing 9 weeks of professional obedience training, he has made great progress and thrives with structure, exercise, mental enrichment, and consistent handling. He does struggle with fear-based leash reactivity around unfamiliar dogs, so he would do best with an experienced, confident owner who will continue his training. We believe an adult-only, preferably only-dog home with a securely fenced yard would be the best fit for him. He has so much love to give and deserves a home committed to helping him continue to succeed. Located in PA
