Story
Bureau of Dog Law Enforcement—Kennel License #2617Yellow—12+ Kids, Dog SelectiveJunior is a very small, sweet, and shy dog. He did not want to come out of his kennel and appeared terrified. We had to gently guide him out, but once on a leash, he was happy to follow you to see where you wanted to go. He feels uncomfortable if someone falls behind him; he prefers to stay close and follow. We didn`t need to use any pressure on the leash to get him to move; a simple kissing noise was enough to encourage him to trot right along behind you.When you bend over him or try to reach for his collar, he tends to stiffen, lower his body, or try to back away. He tolerated handling of his feet, head, body, and legs but seemed stiff and unimpressed the entire time. There is a lot of matting in his fur, which may be causing him some discomfort during handling, possibly contributing to his reservations.Although he showed little to no interest in his environment or the handler, once he warmed up to a person, he wanted to stay close to that individual. He doesn`t seem to have a specific play style with humans because his nervousness and fear made him uninterested in any toys. I attempted to redirect him to hop off my leg, but he didn’t understand what I was asking, which made him slightly nervous. He was also nervous around unfamiliar objects or noisy things. He was startled by the sound of a metal bowl dropping and the noise from kids` toys. However, he seemed accustomed to people using walkers or crutches, as he instinctively stayed out of the way and followed behind the handler. He also didn`t mind a kid`s stroller, hopping behind the handler and following wherever they went.In terms of resource guarding, he showed no signs of concern over food. It’s possible he didn`t like the food offered or was too shut down to eat. He avoided unfamiliar people but appeared curious enough to sniff them. Yet, when one stepped closer, he quickly withdrew and stayed behind the handler. He was curious about a strange dog but became wary after sniffing and decided he did not like the larger dog, barking to assert his need for space. When the larger dog approached, he would low growl and then bark. Fortunately, the other dog respected his spatial cues and did not pressure him to engage further.For more resources to help with any step of your adoption journey go to: https://go.petadoptiongateway.com/LycomingDT

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Ruby Goose is a beautiful 7 year old 12 pound Shih Tzu looking for her perfect forever home. She has made great progress here in rescue, but did have an incident that caused her to lose an eye. Ruby is good with other level headed dogs, but unfortunately she didn't mesh with her foster sister and was the recipient of trauma. HOWEVER, she has no residual issues with dogs and lives happily in a large pack of small dogs in her foster home, but a potential home should know thei dog and if they aren't tolerant of others then Ruby won't be a good fit. She is very well trained with tons of commands, crate trained (and should continue using a crate to eat and sleep in a new home to ensure she keeps healthy boundaries), leash trained, and house trained on pee pads or to go outside. Ruby Goose loves adventures, car rides, toys, and playful furry siblings as long as they aren't cats, since she doesn't like the feline species. Ruby Goose is a great little girl, but can get out of hand if you don't set clear boundaries that she is a dog and a crate must be used as we say to ensure she lives a happy life with healthy attachments to her adult humans. This girl is all healed, healthy, and ready for a home of her own! To adopt Ruby Goose, please complete an adoption application at peacelovepoms.rescuegroups.org. The $350 adoption donation ($250 for senior citizens 65+) includes core vaccines (Rabies, Parvo/Distemper, and Bordatella), Accuplex (Heart worm and Lyme test), fecal, microchip, bloodwork, spay, and all the love you can handle!
