My story

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

Dora is a sweet, playful, and affectionate girl who is ready to bring joy to a lucky forever home. At around 60 pounds, she might think she`s a lap dog- and honestly, we won`t tell her otherwise. She`s been spending time in the office with staff and has shown everyone just how well behaved, gentle and loving she is. Dora is potty trained, treat motivated, and lets you know what she wants by using her paw. Her favorite game in the world? Fetch!! She`s a pro at it and will happily play until it is time to settle down- and when it is, she does so beautifully. Whether curled up on a dog bed or laying quietly on the floor, Dora knows how to relax.
She`s friendly with everyone she meets- both people and other dogs- and takes treats with the softest touch. The only time Dora gets a little down is when it`s time to return to her kennel. Out of it, she truly shines and is eager to show her full personality. Come meet Dora and let her paw her way right into your heart!

More about this shelter

Founded in 1929, the Brandywine Valley SPCA is the first open admission shelter in Pennsylvania to achieve No Kill status and serves as the only open admission shelter in both Chester and Delaware Counties. In 2015, the BVSPCA opened its first Animal Health Center in Malvern, Pennsylvania, making veterinary care more accessible to local residents. In 2016, the BVSPCA took on a five-year contract with the Delaware Office of Animal Welfare to provide state-wide animal services, and expanded its reach further into the tri-state area by opening both a second shelter and a second Animal Health Center in New Castle County, Delaware. Shortly after, a PetSmart Everyday Adoption Center was opened in Dover, Delaware. Its mission is to put the “human” back in humane animal treatment and to advocate on their behalf. Each year, the BVSPCA cares for more than 10,000 stray, owner-surrendered, wayward owned, and abused and neglected animals.
