Story
Hi, I’m Ace! I’m a fun-loving, super smart, and affectionate guy looking for my forever home. I’m housebroken and crate-trained (yeah, I’m a good boy like that), and I absolutely love playing with my toys—flinging them around is my specialty! I’m also a big fan of walks, hikes, and, of course, cuddles. I’m still learning not to grab things off the counter (hey, I’m tall, I can’t help it!), but I’m really treat-motivated and love training sessions. I get along great with people, kids, and other dogs, and I’d love a home where I can run, play, and spend time with my favorite humans. If you’re looking for a buddy to keep you laughing and active, I’m your guy! York County SPCA 3159 Susquehanna Trail N York PA 17406 Kennel #: 3537

Story
Koala is a sweet-natured, senior girl with a love for companionship and a knack for making herself right at home. Within minutes of settling into her foster home, she cozied up on the couch and later slept soundly through the night on the bed, rolling around happily whenever she wakes up. Koala enjoys gentle play, especially tug-of-war, and is wonderfully calm when left alone, spending her time peacefully napping. Though she's not a fan of other animals on walks, she's a lovely, affectionate dog who would thrive as the only pet in a quiet home. Koala's gentle heart and loyalty make her a perfect companion for someone seeking a warm, devoted friend. York County SPCA 3159 Susquehanna Trail N York PA 17406 Kennel # 3537

Story
Hi there, I’m Marjorie! I’m a calm, laid-back lady who loves the simple joys in life—like a good walk, a sunny backyard, and plenty of cuddles. I enjoy meeting new people and dogs, and I’m as easygoing as they come. Sometimes, I like to sneak away to my cozy kennel for some quiet time—it’s my little retreat. The grass is my favorite spot for back scratches, and I’ll happily relax with you after a stroll. If you’re looking for a loving, low-maintenance companion who’s always ready to share peaceful moments, I might just be your perfect match!

Story
Oscar is a very loving male pitty that loves to have his ears rubbed. Oscar does need to be in a single dog home, unfortunately we had a female that was not the best with him and he does not do well now with other dogs, he has not attacked but does protect. Oscar is very good with small children we have 2 grandchildren age 5 and 2 that he grew up with. He loves his quiet time and lounging on his bed (our loveseat or his queen bed in his room). He is used to being alone while we work 8 to 10 hours a day and is accustomed to have a snack in the morning and his meal at night. He is not kennel trained as he is a member of our family he had free range of the home at all times. He is house trained. Rehoming him breaks our hearts but circumstances are causing us to have to move and we do not have time to find a home that will allow for us to keep him, otherwise he would be staying with his Mom and Dad. we are looking for a home that will love him as if he is their child and give him all the s

Story
Hi, I’m Lily, a sweet and snuggly senior pup with a tail that never stops wagging! I’m all about love and cuddles, and I’ve never met a human I didn’t like—whether it’s greeting my foster dad’s coworkers, making friends in the neighborhood, or hanging out with my foster family’s cats. My favorite things are leisurely strolls, cozy naps on the couch, and getting belly rubs (I’ll even do my signature “monster wiggle” to ask for them). I may have some health needs and separation anxiety, but with patience, love, and a comfy spot by your side, I promise to be your best companion ever. Bonus: I snore like a freight train, but I’m the ultimate snuggle buddy!

This sweet, fast little rocket could thrive in dog sports like fast CAT or agility but has a medium energy level—ready for play and exploration, then happy to settle as a couch hippo when it’s time to relax. Dog-friendly and a bit goofy around awkward pups, Aggie enjoys playing with her foster sisters and boyfriends, like Toby and the neighbor’s dogs. She’s making great progress on potty training and house manners, proving her intelligence and adaptability. Whether you’re looking for a yardwork buddy, a loyal companion, or a dog with the potential to earn ribbons, Aggie might be the perfect fit for your family.
