Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Lacey is a 10-year-old Border Collie/Beagle mix with the softest soul and the most devoted heart. She’s incredibly sweet, gentle, and happiest when she’s right by her people’s side—quietly following along, just wanting to be included. She definitely inherited the beagle nose, so fair warning: trash cans should stay secured But beyond that little quirk, Lacey is an easy, peaceful companion. She does fine with other dogs but doesn’t rely on them for companionship—people are her favorite, and that’s all she really needs. Lacey loves the outdoors, especially cooler or cold weather. She would be thrilled with daily walks, time outside with her humans, and simply being able to enjoy fresh air—something she hasn’t had much of in her life so far. Her previous world was very small, and while she was deeply loved, her owners became bedbound and could no longer meet her needs. Letting her go was an act of love, and now Lacey is ready for a new chapter. She has Cushing’s disease, diagnosed a few months ago, and would benefit from activity, weight loss, and consistent care. More than anything, she needs someone who will give her time, affection, and companionship. Lacey isn’t demanding. She doesn’t need chaos or excitement—just a kind person, a steady routine, and love. In return, she’ll give you loyalty, calm companionship, and a quiet presence that makes a house feel like home. If you’re looking for a gentle shadow, a walking buddy, and a dog who just wants to be with you, Lacey may be your perfect match  Adoption is $100 which includes his spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccines, microchip and current monthly prevention. To fill out an application for this animal or a general application click HERE.All animals are up to date on age appropriate shots, microchipped and fixed. To meet one of our animals we require an approved application. You can fill one out at https://tobyscrittercoverescue.org/adoptionapp/ February 1, 2026, 2:29 pm

Lia and Nico are the two best companions anyone could wish for. It would be wonderful if they were adopted together. They are brother and sister 8 years old purchased from a breeder in Eastern PA at 12 weeks. They are sweet, loyal, loving, obedient, incredibly smart and wonderful companions. Nico prefers to be outside but is equally happy indoors. Lia prefers to be where you are, whether indoors or out. Again super smart and respond to Come, Stay, Sit, Paw, Down, Sit on Beds, Find the ball.

Story
Verona is a 9-month-old pup who is looking for a patient, understanding home where she can continue to grow in confidence. She’s a sweet girl who does best in a calm environment and would thrive with adopters willing to move at her pace. Verona does great with gentle, calm dogs and would especially benefit from having a confident, well-adjusted dog in the home to help show her the ropes. Because she’s still learning about the world, a home with older children (14+) would be the best fit for her. With time, kindness, and consistency, Verona has so much potential to blossom into a wonderful companion. She just needs the right family to help her feel safe and supported.

Story
Meet Blue – a Sweet, Loyal Mini Australian Shepherd Looking for an Active Home 💙 Blue is a loving and attentive mini Australian Shepherd with a gentle heart and an energetic spirit. He’s wonderful with people and has grown up surrounded by family life. About Blue: • Very sweet, affectionate, and attentive • Gets along well with both men and women • Lived happily with another smaller dog for a long time and does well with most dogs • Grew up with multiple small children—pushing, pulling, and poking never fazed him; he tolerated it all patiently • Playful and energetic, especially when it comes to being outdoors • LOVES walks and can happily go on long ones • Does well in the car • Minimal to moderate barking—he’ll alert you to knocks or loud sounds, making him a great little alert dog, but is otherwise quiet Blue would truly thrive in a home that can give him daily walks and regular exercise, which his current family is unfortunately unable to provide.

Story
TEDDY 5YRS 33LBS MALE AUS CATTLE DOG LISA 3YR 21 LBS FEMALE MIX MUST HAVE ACD/HERDING BREED EXPERIENCE BONDED PAIR-Ever wanted a dog for you and a dog for your sig other but were afraid of clashing personalities? Well, not here because these two love each other, a LOT, so at least you know they get along perfectly and there is one for each of you. 2x the love!!!!!!!!!!!!! (And man, are they CUTE!) They travel often in the car with me for over an hour at a time - they do ride crated. Load up easy and ride quietly- unless we go through a drive through then Lisa has opinions about what she wants too. She likes to play ball, but not as intense as Teddy and will just let him get it and go find something else to do. They play and wrestle with each other and other dogs. Not overly rough but will get on ground with each other. They love to run laps in the yard chasing each other. They leave my uninterested dogs alone, as there is always someone else to play with. Lisa did not get along with my 1 male foster - just a little 10 pounder . Not sure who to started the war, but I did not leave them loose with each other * no actual fight/injury/contact ever occured. There was alot of noise 1 time, and they would grumble at each other when passing by each other's crates/run at work. Teddy is pretty easy going but doesn't like to be corrected. He will get bossy -verbal and pin someone who tries to But a sharp HEY from me and he will stop and walk away * never has been a fight or injury. Loves to play fetch and the other dogs do not challenge him to get the ball away from him. He would definitely destroy a stuffed toy if given the chance. They both love to chew on antlers/ nylabones/Benebone etc Teddy is a super cuddler and happy to hang on the couch or bed. Lisa loves attention too but takes a bit more to settle down at first. Both settle quickly and Quietly in a crate. They are both jumpers and when seeking attention. They have gotten better, but would need to be reminded of their manners going forward. We do not require a fenced BUT they would need a secure area to be able to run in and burn off energy weekly. Crate trained and housebroken   This animal is up to date on all shots, dewormed, and spayed/neutered. They have been heartworm tested (negative) and on prevention.  The adoption fee is $400.00 for the pair. If you are interested in adopting this pet please fill out an application. http://www.ajssearchandrescue.org/adoption-applicationDecember 25, 2025, 9:27 pm
