Story
Meet Chunk: Chunk is about a 17 month old (as of October 2026) border collie / lab mix (best guess) that weighs about 60 pounds. Chunk was born in a shelter on May 1, 2025. His mommy and siblings had all been adopted and found their homes and he was left behind. For one year he lived in the shelter not knowing any other life. Chunk went to many adoption events where everyone loved him but no commitments were made. Due to shelter stay length without interest, he found his name on the euthanasia list! The shelter director reached out to our rescue to see if we could help this sweet guy out. We are thankful we had a spot for him and can give him the chance at the life he deserves! Chunk is now being fostered in the south and would love to take the freedom ride north to Pennsylvania to meet more prospective families. Chunk is a total sweetheart! He is great with all people, including children. Chunk loves attention, playing with his toys, and having snacks! Chunk could spend his days rolling in the grass and hanging out with friends and be the happiest guy around! Chunk is great with other dogs and has done well with cats, too! Chunk is house trained and crate trained and walks well on a leash. We would love for Chunk to have a home with a fenced in yard so he can roam, run, roll and play freely until his hearts content. Chunk is up to date on his shots and neutered. Chunk is such a great package and ready to be your new best friend forever! If you are interested in saving this sweet soul, please go to Charlie’s Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application.

Story
Oreo is as sweet as her name!  This 1.5 year-old Border Collie is a total sweetheart who loves her people!  Oreo does well with other dogs, though she prefers to be the boss of her canine companions. She seems to have a prey drive, so a home without cats would likely be best.  She has previously lived with children and is also house-trained! If you’re looking for a sweet, smart girl to add to your family, Oreo might just be your perfect match!   October 27, 2026, 4:25 pm

Story
I adopted Lewis as a puppy 5 years ago, and he has lived up to the border collie in him. He loves running, playing frisbee, going on walks and smelling all the plants, and he’s very good with both cats and children. He’s good with dogs he knows, but protective to dogs he doesn’t. He has a seizure disorder and takes daily medication to manage it (about $30/month) Since having two small children in the last two years, as well as acquiring a job where I travel frequently, I have become less and less available to give Lewis the love and outdoor time he deserves. He would spend hours outside if he could. His confinement indoors has made him paranoid and barks frequently when left alone. Overall he’s a happy boy and deserves to have a home who can give him the outdoor time and love he deserves

Story
We welcomed Coco in April 2024. She is an exceptionally smart, friendly Border Collie who loves neighborhood kids and respects yard boundaries. I hoped she’d grow up with my kids, but I underestimated the work of raising a baby and a toddler alongside a high-energy breed. Coco is very anxious and skittish; loud play makes her nervous, causing her to bark to stop us, and I struggle to balance family fun with her needs.Recently, her medical needs have added to the challenge. She started having seizures this August (about weekly). After multiple seizures yesterday, she went to the Pet ER, received midazolam and phenobarbital injections, and responded well. She now requires a strict anti-seizure medication schedule every 12 hours.Because of her anxiety, skittishness, and new medical needs, she requires an owner with immense patience and time. I am unable to provide what is best for her and hope to find someone with a tender heart to give her the care she deserves.

Story
Ophelia is a 7 month old spayed female border collie mix who weighs about 30 pounds. She is super cute, social and loves attention. Sadly she has been waiting for a family since she was a tiny baby and we just cannot understand why! She has been a super star at events with other dogs, kids, walks pretty well on a leash and loves to hang out. She has started working on potty training, crate training and is all around great dogs.

Meet Nibs: Nibs is about an 8 month old (as of October 2026) Cattle dog / Bulldog mix (best guess) that weighs about 40 pounds.

Nibs is great with both dogs and cats. Nibs has enjoyed all the people he has met, including children. Nibs loves to play in the water and run zoomies in the yard.

Meet Rascal:  Rascal is a 4 year old Cattle Dog/Shepherd mix that weighs around 41 pounds.  Rascal was rescued from a high kill shelter a day before she was to be euthanized.  Rascal loves attention and is very sweet.  Rascal can be dog selective but has no reaction to cats. We recommend older children because Rascal is energetic and sometimes jumps on you. Overall Rascal is a nice girl...just needs some work and stability. Rascal is house and crate trained but needs some work on her leash walking. Rascal will need a fenced in yard where she can run and a family that is very active and experienced. Rascal will make a great dog in the right home. Rascal is up to date on all her shots and spayed. If you were interested in adopting this sweet girl, please go to our website at charliescrusaders.org and fill out our adoption application.
