Meet the cutest little guy around! He is a compact ball of love and we call him our "Walmart Greeter". Carson's person died a couple of years ago and he is needing a new home. Carson is a happy little guy who loves everyone and gets along great with other dogs. Carson is playful, housebroken, snuggly, likes to play with toys and would love a family to call his own again. This little guy is part Shih Tzu part.... Bassett?? A short, stocky little man for sure. Don't let those little legs fool you though, he likes to run and play with the big dogs. Carson is housebroken, so the hard work is done for you! He is an adult with a lot of life left! Let him snuggle up to you and you can heal his little heart.

Story
Meet Lily! Lily has shown to be very fearful here in the shelter, but her previous home stated that she is comfortable with familiar people. Lily has previously lived in a home with other dogs, and children although we feel that she would benefit from a quiet space to really come out of her shell and feel comfortable. If you are looking for a middle aged gal to lounge around the house with, Lily would love to meet you! Available at the Animal Rescue League of Berks County, Birdsboro Pa 19508, KL#1257

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!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.(YOU MUST BE WITHIN A TWO HOUR DRIVE OF GRANTVILLE PA TO BE CONSIDERED FOR AN ADOPTER.)Posted 1/8/25 Geo could not be cared for by his previous owner.  He is 15 months old and a bundle of energy.  He is quite a lover and gets along well with dogs and I believe cats altho can be a but of of pest.  He has been housetrained (here).  I think he loves having another dog to play with and it keeps him social.  He travels well and is crate trained but sometimes can be vocal so no apartment living for him.  Because of his energy we are requesting a fenced yard. He does require grooming every 6-8 weeks.  His adoption fee is $350. The dogs are Spayed or Neutered, Heartworm/Lyme tested, UTD on vaccines, microchipped, dewormed, treated for fleas and overall Vet checked. We offer a 30 day money back guarantee along with an adoption kit . Application REQUIRED. Adoption fee required.
