Story
Meet the adorable Marco! He is a 1 y.o., 23 lb. boy who may be a Feist/Shiba Inu mix possibly? He was an owner surrender at a WV shelter. He is very skittish, takes time to even warm up for petting and will take a very patient adopter to go super slow with him. He is goofy, loves other dogs and needs that in his new home to help him feel more comfortable. He is a flight risk, so a fenced yard is an absolute must! No exceptions! He escaped from original adopter and it took 6 weeks with the help of a search team to catch him. Also, for that reason no small children that can easily open a door where he might escape. He will be a great fit for a quiet, adult home. Please email katymk@ptd.net for an application to adopt. His adoption fee is $350 and he is neutered & current on vaccines. Must be within 1 hr. of Pottstown, PA in order to adopt.  Apply for Marco here- https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FHPA/Dog   November 2, 2024, 3:27 pm

Story
FOSTER NEEDED! Garrett - this big, young man is sweet and strong, around 2 years old. We think he has boxer, hound (long legs) and probably some pit in him but a dominate breed impacted his height. He is tall and strong. He is playful with other dogs, rough houses with dogs his own size but tones down his behavior with puppies. He is nuts about playing with his empty metal bowl and now a big white bucket. He also loves stuffed toys but destroys them along the way.  He is currently in a foster home for a rescue in Tennessee with several humans, lots of dogs and pups and cats.   If you can foster this gorgeous boy, please email   nicole.foreverhomerescue@gmail.com   for information regarding fostering.  Foster to adopt available and while the dog or pup is in foster- medical care is provided.  Click this link:   https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FHPA/Dog   He is neutered, heartworm -, on simparica trio,  crate trained.

Story
Linus is a sweet little guy who  definitely  has   had a harder life before coming to PA.  He comes from a shelter in West Virginia where he spent nearly 2  years  and we suspect shelter life was a tad hard on him.   Linus is slowly coming out of his  shell  and you can tell he’s excited for another chance!    Linus LOVES other dogs and gains confidence from being around them.  We strongly believe it would be best for him to be in a forever home with at least one other canine friend.   Most times, you’ll find him snuggled up with our other dogs – he truly seems to find comfort from them.   He also enjoys his walks and does incredibly well on the leash.  For a small dog – he’s about 10lbs -he’s very quiet and there’s not much he reacts to. It should be said that given his extensive shelter stay and unknown history before that, Linus is  a bit scared and skittish .   He probably should not go to a forever home with small children.  Linus  tends to be  initially afraid  of people and it’s not his favorite to be pet or cuddled  by new people .   Something that could  definitely change  with time and treats!    Linus is extremely food motivated and a good eater.   Linus is a  10 year old sweetheart  who needs a soft place to land in a home with other dogs and older children.  He could also live with a cat as he seems to be intimidated by ours.
