Story

Meet Shelby! Shelby is an almost 3 year old (born around Oct 2021) Pit Bull Terrier mix that weighs around 50 pounds. Shelby was found in Grenada, Mississippi on the side of the road locked in a crate with an empty bowl and thankfully a volunteer with Charlie’s Crusaders was able to rescue her. Shelby is now being fostered near the Pottstown, PA area and is waiting for her forever home! Shelby loves her two furry brothers at her foster home and loves to play and run around with them. Shelby is good with other dogs. Shelby gets very excited to meet new people and takes a few minutes to settle down. Shelby also loves to cuddle and will make a great companion. Shelby is house trained, good in the car, and knows “sit,” “down,” “kennel,” and “come.” Shelby is working on her leash training and will do best in a home with older children because of how hard she likes to play. Shelby will need a home with a fenced in yard and adopters with dog experience. Shelby is up to date on her vaccinations and has been spayed.

Mars was found in rural Mississippi as a stray when he was around 4 months old. Mars is currently being fostered in the south and would love to take the freedom ride north to Pennsylvania to meet more prospective families. Mars is so, so sweet! He loves to play outside in the water! Mars does wonderful riding in the car and loves to go on adventures with his humans. Mars is great with all other dogs he has been around and does really well with all people, including children. Mars does bark at cats and will chase them, so we would recommend a home without cats.

Mars is a great all-around boy, needing a home with an active family that can give him a life of adventure and love. Mars will need a home with a fence so he can play freely. Mars is up to date on his shots and neutered.

Story

Banx is an amazing dog. He is 1 years old, full of love and energy. He loves going for long walks, playing fetch, and eating apples/carrots. He has been amazing with our kids (10 and 3), he has a great temperament. He has never been exposed to cats so I am not sure how he would react. He gets along with other family members dogs (all small). We have a 12 y/o pit, who he has always gotten along with since 8 weeks old, but for the last few months our 12 y/o dog has been starting to be aggressive with Banx. After exhausting all resources we believe it is best and safer for Banx to get him a new loving home. We care a great deal about him and will only release him to a GOOD LOVING home who are able to truly care for him.

Espiga

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Adult

Size

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

Details

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Espiga is a charming, super cute and friendly boy who adores attention and loves saying hello to other dogs! With his playful spirit, Espiga is happiest when he’s near his humans, enjoying walks, playtime, or simply being by your side. One of Espiga’s favorite things in the world is playing with rope toys—though he does have a tendency to try and rip them apart, so a little supervision is needed. He’s still young at heart and would benefit from some additional training, especially with crate training, which he’s still working on. Espiga doesn’t like being left alone and would likely thrive in a home with another dog to keep him company. Though he’s not a fan of water, Espiga’s loyalty shines through—he even hopped on a paddleboard just to stay close to his foster! He’s a well-behaved boy for the most part but will need continued guidance as he matures. He’s so happy to be out of the shelter and is ready to find his perfect forever family. Espiga is a playful, puppy-like pit bull mix who brings joy to every room he enters. While his foster family believes he may be barely a year old based on his energy and behavior, the veterinarian estimates his age to be closer to four years. As we don’t have Espiga's full history, we’re working with the vet’s assessment, and his adoption records will reflect an age of four years. Regardless of his exact age, Espiga has the heart and spirit of a young pup—ready for fun, adventure, and lots of love in his forever home! If you’re looking for a friendly, playful companion who will be by your side through thick and thin, Espiga might just be the perfect fit for you. He deserves a loving home where he can thrive, play, and feel secure.

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Adult

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Mila: A Sweetheart Ready to Be Your Forever Friend Mila is a bundle of love packed into a petite, 45-pound pittie mix body. At around six years old, Mila is past the puppy stage but still full of life and charm. This girl’s ideal day? Belly rubs, a tasty cheese treat (her absolute favorite!), and some quality time with her people on the couch—she’s a certified snuggle expert. Mila greets everyone she meets with wiggles and kisses, eager to share her affection with the world. Found alone in an abandoned house, Mila’s past remains a mystery, but her heart is wide open to the future. She’s well-mannered in the home, is house trained, and has already learned a few fun tricks like “sit” and “paw”—she’s eager to please, especially when treats are involved! Mila also walks well on a leash and loves the outdoors. We’re even working on her fetch game; she’s excited to chase the ball and bring it back like a pro. We recommend a home with no other pets as this cuddle queen is happiest as your one and only fur companion, where she can soak up all the love and attention. She’s comfortable in her crate when needed and is calm and trustworthy when left out on her own. And Mila’s not one to fuss—she’s a total trooper for bath time, even though she'd probably rather be back by your side for cuddles. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who’ll be your couch buddy and walking partner, Mila is the perfect match. She’s ready to fill your home with wiggles, kisses, and endless love. She is being fostered in Newton, New Jersey, but once you are approved to adopt with Familiar Hearts, a meeting can most likely be coordinated at a half way point.

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

Story

A Cautionary Tail with the Most Resilient + Innocent of Messengers Chewy has been through more than most dogs her age, but her spirit remains as bright as ever. This 2-year-old, 45-pound bundle of energy and love was first found on the streets of Philadelphia on March 3rd. After being spayed and brought up to date on all her vaccinations, she was adopted, only to end up back on the streets through no fault of her own. Four months after her initial adoption, Chewy was discovered at the Humane Society of Harrisburg Area in mid-November. We learned that her adopters had given her away, violating their signed Adoption Contract, which required them to return her to us if they couldn’t keep her. To our shock, the person who ended up with Chewy had previously applied to adopt through us—and had been denied. Despite enduring time on the streets, Chewy’s gentle and loving nature never wavered. Now safely back with her Familiar Hearts family, Chewy is the poster child for why we take our adoption vetting process so seriously. She’s completely innocent in this ordeal and is ready to find the forever home she truly deserves. Chewy is a goofy, energetic pup who loves to play, cuddle, and make everyone she meets feel special. She thrives with structure, positive feedback, and would do best in a home with a yard where she can run to her heart’s content. She’s housebroken, sleeps soundly in her crate, and is currently working with a trainer to polish her leash manners. Chewy’s resilience and sweetness make her a one-of-a-kind companion. If you’re ready to open your heart to this incredible dog and give her the stable, loving home she’s been waiting for, fill out our Adoption Application today at https://www.familiarhearts.org/adoption-application Chewy is waiting to begin her next and final chapters—with you.
