My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Ashley is a true gem! With her gentle nature and laid-back demeanor, she’s the perfect addition to a calm home. She has lived harmoniously with cats and friendly dogs and gets along well with children, making her a fantastic companion for many households.

For nearly 15 years, Ashley has been a cherished class pet in a childcare program. Due to a demanding work schedule, her previous owner found it increasingly difficult to provide her with the attention and care she needs as an elderly dog.

They made the difficult decision to surrender her, hoping to find a loving home where Ashley can receive the attention she deserves.

Now, at 15 years old, Ashley enjoys lounging on her favorite pillow, savoring treats, and soaking up the comfort of indoor life. While she occasionally likes to venture outside with supervision, she’s happiest curled up indoors.

Due to her age, Ashley prefers a home without stairs and will signal when she needs to go outside by barking. It’s important to take her out promptly to avoid any accidents.

Ashley thrives in a peaceful environment and loves Gospel music and belly rubs. She gets a burst of excitement when her people come home, greeting them with a wagging tail and joyful spirit. Given her diminished sight and hearing, she would benefit from having someone home with her most of the time.

Ashley deserves the very best, and we’re dedicated to finding her a loving, forever home.

Go meet their pets

At this time, Familiar Hearts Animal Society meetings are by appointment only.

We currently rely on our amazing web of generous fosters throughout the Philadelphia area and will do our best to make a meeting as convenient as possible for both human + animal.

Meetings will need to be coordinated through the foster of the animal you are interested in meeting.

More about this rescue

Mission Statement: To end the unnecessary suffering of homeless companion animals by serving as a refuge and enabling humans to provide them quality and compassionate homes.

Our Vision: Our mission is two-fold; we want to help abandoned pets and we want to help stop pet abandonment.

We operate using a network of kind hearted hands to help find homeless animals veterinary and behavior care and then match them with appropriate forever homes. We also strive to educate pet owners about resources they might utilize in order to best understand how to provide for their friends with furry paws, feathers or claws. We always do our best to help.
