My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dobby is a bright, energetic pup looking for a home that wants an active fun loving doggo. Dobby is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, lymes/heartworm negative, flea treated, wormed, and microchipped. He does have deformities in his front legs, but that doesn’t slow him down. He loves to run and play just like any dog. We do currently have him on joint supplements though to help his legs as he ages. Dobby is crate trained, he’s still working on housebreaking, but has been doing good, and knows some obedience. He is dog selective, not good with cats, and no small children. Dobby loves to cuddle and play. Stuffies are his favorite toys, but he will play with almost anything. Dobby is a great dog with a lot of potential, he just needs someone to give him a chance. If you are interested in fostering or adopting Dobby, please complete an application.

***Dobby needs to continue with obedience training once he is in a new home. The rescue will assist with several training sessions***

Meet the Pet

Potential adopter(s) will meet the dog. At this time there will also be a meet and greet between any other pets included in the household.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process consists of an initial application for the animal of interest, followed by reference checks (both personal and with a veterinarian), a home visit, and finally if approved an adoption contract. All animals are required to be inside companion pets and the owner must maintain veterinary care throughout the life of the animal.

Adoption fees are $150 for dogs, unless it is fostered through us for another rescue and $75 for cats.

All animals are up to date with vaccinations and spayed/neutered before adoption.

Go meet their pets

Arrangements can be made to visit with any of our pets, but because we are foster based and do not have one facility, appointments must be made to do so. To visit with a pet, please contact us at 814-421-7078 by phone or text.

More about this rescue

We are a small foster based rescue, not a shelter, comprised of multiple individuals that open their homes to stray, sick, and forgotten animals in need. We began the rescue in the Ligonier Area to focus on issues of stray, abandoned, and neglected animals. We often took in animals for the local police departments instead of having them sent to animal control. We have since expanded and try to cooperate with the public, other rescues, and other animal groups to assist any animal in need. Our primary focus area for intake though is still the Ligonier Valley. Adoptions can be made to any area as long as the adoption process is completed.
