Chesapeake Bay Retriever puppies and dogs in Pottstown, Pennsylvania

This friend has just arrived because their owner could no longer keep them. While owners can provide some history on their pets, our medical and behavioral teams will still evaluate them. Dogs that have lived in homes previously typically have some training established, but we cannot guarantee that those behaviors will remain consistent in a new home environment. They are pending interactions with other animals at the shelter until they have been cleared by our vet. Our staff will spend some time getting to know them and we will update their bio with more information as we learn. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

UPDATE 12.12.24 - Poor Gizmo has been in our care for 425 days with no interest. :( Gizmo has a sponsor and his adoption fee has been taken care of, but he is in URGENT NEED of a new foster home or adoption as his current foster family is moving. Please help this sweet boy! His yearly vet visit reports Gizmo as healthy and ready for a forever home!! ------------------------- Name: Gizmo Age: 7 years old Color/Breed: Black/Lab Hobbies: Loves playing fetch with tennis balls and exploring outside Favorite treat: Loves EVERYTHING! Treat and food motivated! Humble beginnings: Gizmo hasn’t had the best start, but we are hoping he will have the best happily ever after. Gizmo was rescued from an elderly couple with a hoarding situation. He had limited space to get around and his general health was neglected. Vet report- They say he’s the bestest boy and we agree! He is caught up on vaccines, his dental health is good and since he has been in foster, his fur has grown in thick and beautiful. Message from his foster: Gizmo has a very sweet demeanor. He likes to nuzzle for hugs, run for tennis balls and chase the turkey vultures out of the yard. He likes other dogs, although not a fan of cats and his foster cat sibling said the feeling is mutual. He knows basic commands and listens very well. **DO NOT CALL OR EMAIL ABOUT A PET.
