Meet Ella, a 5 year old (dob: 10/4/19) Shih Tzu, who is a recent breeder release from Pennsylvania. She currently weighs about 12 pounds and has been fully vetted (spay, dental, vaccinations and microchipped) and is looking for her forever home. Ella would do best in a home with a secure fenced in yard and hopefully at least 1 other dog companion. Ella loves exploring outside and will let you know if anyone or anything breaches the perimeter! Are you the forever this little girl is looking for? Apply to adopt Ella at https://www.dutchcountryanimalrescue.org/adopt.html We currently adopt in the states of PA*, NJ, NY**, DE, and some areas of MD.

Story
Say hello to Kelsey! 👋 Kelsey is a rescue from a local shelter and ready to find her perfect home! 🩷 She is around 5 years old, 11 lbs. potty trained and will go into her crate, but doesn't have to spend much time in there due to her foster's schedule. It's been rumored she sleeps in bed with her foster! 🤭🥰 She warmed up quickly to her foster and is referred to as a Princess with an attitude! 👸 🫣 She is a sweetheart that eats and drinks well, enjoys a good game of chase your own tail 😂 rolls over for belly rubs and LOVES to give kisses. 😘 Kelsey loves to be outside and going for walks.🚶‍♀️ She had a spa day and is looking as beautiful as ever! 😍 Kelsey does have some vision impairment but navigates well around the house and is not a barker. She was not a fan of being groomed or the vet checking her teeth. These may take a little work with her in the future. If you're ready for a forever friend, apply below to meet Kelsey. She can't wait for her forever home with you!

Henna was a rescue in 2020. Ive recently changed jobs and am gone for 12-14 hours a day some days. She’s not completely housebroken but will potty outside when let out frequently. She would do well with an older person or someone who works from home

Story
Thank You DelleBovi Family! Flynn was born about October 4, 2014 and weighs about 22 lbs.  He is as cute as they come and was released from his puppy making days in a puppy mill in West Virginia.  The 'millers' made a call to the humane society and said they no longer needed the services of 29 dogs and would they take them.  The shelter is a kill shelter due to space and could not handle so many dogs and so they asked if we would take them.  How could we not!  So, we squeezed and adjusted and were able to take them all.  Sadly, Flynn has failed two adoptions as after a decent length of time they still could not touch him nor would he stay in the same room as them.  He is wonderful with the other dogs here and is now considered a Joyful Rescues Sanctuary pet.  He can seldom be touched and if he is it is not for long and when we must 'catch' him to be groomed we must use a towel to protect our hands because he will bite.  He does happily live inside the house with the humans who live and work here as long as they are not forcing themselves on him, which we do not unless absolutely necessary such as hair trimming.  It is felt Flynn is living his best life right where he is and is a very happy boy.  From Dr. Rasnake: There is mild pegmentary keratitis which is likely from hair rubbing on the surface of the eye.  This condition may be the result of improper hygiene/grooming.  His future family will need to be diligent to keep hair cut short around his eyes so this does not worsen.  He still can see, but there is some cloudiness.  Joyful Rescues has no funding except for our adoption fees and miscellaneous donations. Pet care and vet bills are expensive - you must be ready to take on this financial (as well as emotional) responsibility.   Can't Adopt Me?  SPONSOR ME Look for the Link 'Special Instructions to Seller' if you want to note a particular pet Before you seek to adopt a pet from Joyful Rescues, please read our Pet Adoption page http://www.joyfulrescues.org/pet_adoption.html.

Story
Odie was born around August 23, 2013 and weighs about 8 pounds. Odie and his brother Chief are with us because his human passed away unexpectedly at a very young age.  We spoke with Chief and Odie's foster mom recently, and after some careful consideration, we've decided that they need to be adopted together. While we don't typically do this, we feel strongly that it's in the best interest of both dogs. They have a very strong bond, and separating them at this stage could be detrimental to their well-being. We understand this may present a unique adoption situation, but we're hopeful that these two deserving brothers will find the perfect home. Odie does well with all the other dogs here, and we have been told he is fine with cats and children.  Odie rides well in the car and walks nicely on a leash.    Chief will also stick with you when you are outside doing chores.   You will have some potty training work to do but he has the basics down he just needs routine.  Odie received a much-needed dental on arrival and he has some age-related arthritis that would benefit from a Rimadyl type product from your vet.  He's rather active for a 12-year-old pup and gets around wonderfully!    Chief & Odie would like their next home to be their last.  A home that will cherish these boys for however long they have left and never let them feel heartbreak again.   The Adoption Fee for this dog is $350.00 Adoptions fees vary based on adoptability. In general our fees include spay/neuter, all age appropriate vaccines, Home Again micro-chipping & registration, worming & flea control - a 'complete' pet. We accept CASH or Visa/Mastercard ONLY.    Joyful Rescues has no funding except for our adoption fees and miscellaneous donations. Pet care and vet bills are expensive - you must be ready to take on this financial (as well as emotional) responsibility. YOU MUST BE AT LEAST 25 YEARS OF AGE TO ADOPT A DOG FROM JOYFUL RESCUES   We keep our pet list as up-to-date as possible. As soon as a pet is adopted, it is removed from the list. If a pet is still showing, it is still available for adoption.   Can't Adopt Me?  SPONSOR ME Look for the Link 'Special Instructions to Seller' if you want to note a particular pet Before you seek to adopt a pet from Joyful Rescues, please read our Pet Adoption page http://www.joyfulrescues.org/pet_adoption.html.
