Autumn is taking a break from the shelter in a loving foster home. She is described as a wonderful foster and an absolute joy to have in the home. She is fully house-trained, including potty-trained. She knows basic commands like sit and stay, and she absolutely loves playing fetch—she’ll happily bring the ball right back and drop it for you. Despite being a bit older, she still enjoys playtime (and is surprisingly agile), and a small yard or play area would be perfect for her. Autumn is a very smart dog and settles into routines quickly. Within just a few days, she already knew the entrance to our townhome. She is extremely affectionate and a true people-pleaser. Indoors, she loves being near her people, whether that’s relaxing on the couch with her blanket or following you from room to room. She bonds with people quickly and thrives on companionship. She rarely barks and is largely quiet while inside (besides a few whimpers to let us know she needed to use the bathroom, or she wanted her ball). She was great when left unattended in our house and did not get into any mischief besides laying on the couch. Initially, she slept in her crate, however once we realized how reliable she was, we let her sleep downstairs on the couch. She is the perfect dog for someone looking for an older dog with a medium energy level. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal, and well-mannered dog, Autumn could be a perfect match. Please reach out to our lifesaving team at wcfoster@bvspca.org to schedule a meet. This pet qualifies for our Sponsored by Simba Program: Pets for Veterans: no adoption fee for any military veteran adopting a pet 1yo+. ** This pet qualifies for our Sponsored by Simba program`s Seniors-for-Seniors offer: no adoption fee for pet 8 years or older by an adopter 65 years and older. ** This pet is available at: Brandywine Valley SPCA 1212 Phoenixville Pike West Chester, PA 19380 PA Kennel License #01647

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.
