My story

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

Bella is a 2 year old purebred yellow Lab. She is friendly, well socialized and has not met a stranger yet. In her previous home there was a business on the property and Bella was free and loved to greet everyone. Unfortunately she was given treats by the shoppers and she started following and wandering so they decided she needed a new home. She loved the outdoors and would make a great walking/hiking friend. She is good with kids, cats, and other dogs but is not a fan of crates. She is microchipped, up to date with shots, deworming and flea prevention, and will be spayed on 4/19 and ready for her new family.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our process is very easy...there is a link to an adoption form on the page for each animal. Find a pet you're interested in adopting, and click the link to complete the adoption form. We'll review it, contact your references, and get in touch with the homes we believe to be the best match. We make no guarantees of working in any order of receipt...we're looking for the proper home for our dogs, not just whoever can fill out the form the fastest! No offense intended, please.

More about this rescue

It all started with one family in Northern Lancaster County, Pennsylvania (yes, THAT Lancaster County). They started reaching out to local Puppy breeders, and they convinced quite a few of them that it's better to place their dogs into a loving home than to continue doing what they used to do with a dog they no longer wanted. In the many years since that humble beginning in 1998, we've grown from a family operation into having dozens of volunteers, supporters, and friends, all of whom are dedicated to the same task: Saving their lives!

We also rescue cats from local farms, families, and nearby kill shelters. We've also found homes for rabbits, finches, guinea pigs, maccaws, snakes, frogs, turtles, goats, sheep, pigs, horses and even an alligator!

We do not have a shelter facility that you can visit, as we do all our housing and care through foster homes and volunteers. But we do bring our dogs and cats to Pet Valu in Ephrata Pa. We will make appointments for approved adopters to come meet the animal, and see if the animal adopts them (it's far more important that the animal is happy, as they've had the much more difficult life).

PLEASE NOTE: We are, as it says above, a family-based effort, and that must come first in everything we do! All our volunteers have families that always take precidence over other activities. So if anyone is slow to respond to you, or we take more time than you might think is proper, chalk it up to being parents first, and animal rescuers second! We hope you understand...
