My story

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

A shelter is no place for a senior so Bismarck is currently enjoying some time in a foster home. Bismarck is affectionately called, `Bizzy` in his foster home and he is settling in nicely. Bismarck is dog friendly. We are hoping to find a forever home for Bismarck where he can be a cherished family pet. Please contact the foster coordinator at rwilliamson@bvspca.org to set up an appointment to meet Bismarck. You are also welcome to call or stop by the shelter and our staff would be happy to schedule a meet and greet with Bismarck.

This pet qualifies for our Sponsored by Simba Program, Pets for Veterans: There is no adoption fee for any military veteran adopting a pet 1 year old +.

This pet qualifies for our Sponsored by Simba Program: Seniors-for-Seniors: No adoption fee for any pet 8yo+ by an adopter 65yo+

Currently in foster home. If interested in meeting please reach out to rwilliamson@bvspca.org for scheduling.

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.
