Pachi

Miniature Pinscher Toy Fox Terrier

Female, 3 yrs

Columbia, PA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

This adorable, spunky, silly girl is heartbroken because she has absolutely zero interest from anyone wanting to adopt her. She has now set the record for the longest dog in our foster program. Pachi has been with us for a year and a half and prior to our rescue she had been in a shelter for several months. Pachi is the cutest little dog with the coolest ears. She is much smaller than she appears in her photos. (Under 30lbs). Pachi is a true gem, and we can't explain how lucky her person will be once they find each other. She's shown incredible growth but needs a home with structure and routine to continue to grow. Pachi finds joy in the simple pleasures of life, like chasing a toy or curling up on the couch and loves to share blueberries and bananas for breakfast with her foster mom. Pachi is most comfortable with women but is open to anyone with a soft side. She would do best with an adult-only home, or with older children. Pachi likes to be the center of attention, so no other pets. She is not a fan of felines. Pachi prefers a home with a fenced in yard to run around in. We know that her person/people are out there, but we need your help to find this deserving girl her much deserved forever home. Please share. We would like Pachi to stay within Central PA or if the perfect home is found we would consider someone further away. “Dogs have a way of finding the people who need them and filling the emptiness we didn’t ever know we had.” - Thom Jones

Bruce

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, 3 yrs 10 mos

York, PA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with dogs,

Story

Hey, I’m Bruce, your friendly neighborhood escape artist. I’ve landed at the shelter a few times because I’ve got energy for days and I like to check out the world if nobody’s keeping an eye on me. What can I say? I just love life. I’m super outgoing, love snacks, and I make plenty of happy noises when I’m getting attention or playing with dog friends. I listen when people or other dogs tell me to tone it down, though. I’m affectionate, playful, talkative, and I walk pretty well on a leash. If you’ve got an active lifestyle and a place that can match my zest for adventure, I’m ready to be your guy.

Story

people were giving away this 8 week old pittie. We could tell he was being miss treated. He was the runt. so we were told he got picked on. He was staying in a dirty home. So we took him to find a better home for him. He has I wanna say one or two shots since we took him to the vet. He around 6 months old we estimated his birthday his February 19th, 2025. My partner is starting a job very soon so we don’t have time for him nor do we have family to watch him. He never been aggressive, . He just plays rough. He loves playing in rivers and fetch. is very much a lap dog even tho he60lbs. He knows how to sit, give paw and lay down, tho he is very stubborn at times. He is crate trained as well. He loves to just run and play. Hes a good boy when it comes to baths. Loves a good nature walk. He just wants to meet everyone. I do feel like he could use a sibling. He rings the bell to go potty. Large cage, toys, bells, food, treats and bowls included. All we ask is updates on him:)

Bentley

American Bulldog Boxer

Male, 3 yrs 1 mo

Good with dogs, Not good with cats,

Story

Hi, I’m Bentley, a low-energy, big-hearted boy who’s been through a lot and is ready to find the person I can finally pour all my loyalty into. I may be shy at first, but once I trust you, I love curling up beside you, resting my head on you, and soaking up all the gentle affection you’ll give me. I settled into my foster home quickly, enjoyed having my own cozy space, and always did great in my crate. I’m not a fan of cats or sharing my home with other dogs—I get too focused on them—so I’m looking for a calm home where I can be your one and only. New people don’t worry me much, and my fosters said I was nothing but sweet, soft-eyed, and excited to see them every morning. I’m still learning to feel confident, to eat consistently, and to understand that I’m safe, but with patience and love, I’ll show you just how loyal and gentle I truly am. I’ve had a rough start, but I’m ready for my forever person—maybe that’s you. 3159 Susquehanna Trail N York PA 17406 Kennel #: 3537
