Story
🐾 Meet Poncho! 🐾 This sweet pup came to our rescue as a stray, and we believe he may be a Border Collie/Lab mix. He’s approximately 6 months old and is one fun, energetic boy! He is up to date on his vaccines and will be neutered soon. He has a medium to high energy level and absolutely LOVES his ball! 🎾 He would make a wonderful companion for an active person or family who enjoys playing, walking, and keeping a young dog busy. He loves taking walks and does very well on a leash. Because he is still very much a puppy, his new family will need to be patient and consistent with him as he continues learning the basics. He’ll need someone willing to work with him on housetraining and Training 101—basic commands, manners, leash skills, and learning what is expected of him. He’s smart, young, and ready to learn! If you're looking for a fun-loving puppy who will keep you entertained and give you plenty of love in return, this boy might be your perfect match! ❤️🐾. Please message us if you are interested in adoption and we will send an adoption form for you to get the adoption process started! 💲 Adoption Fee: $350 Your puppy's adoption fee includes: 🐶 Spay/neuter 💉 Age-appropriate vaccinations 🪱 Deworming ❤️ Current heartworm and flea prevention 📍 Microchip All adoptions will be completed at the North Fayette/ Robinson Township Petsmart - 420 Home Dr.. Our rescue works side by side with that Petsmart.

Story
Meet Wiley! Wiley is an approximately 1.5 year old Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix (best guess) with a happy personality and a very smart mind. He is an active boy who is always ready for his next adventure and would thrive with a family that understands the needs of intelligent working breeds. Wiley is high energy and will need a breed knowledgeable owner committed to continuing his training and providing both mental and physical stimulation. He is eager to learn and already does pretty well on a leash. With consistency and structure, Wiley has the potential to become an incredible companion. He would do best with an active family that enjoys walks, outdoor activities, training, and keeping their dogs engaged. Wiley is the kind of dog who wants to be involved in life right alongside his people. Wiley is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines and preventions. Local adoption fee is $300 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Now, before we go any further into my story.... let me warn you...it contains heartache and then some puppies, and fear and even some hopelessness. We do go to the top of the mountain as well, so hold in for the wild ride of my life:) maybe you will get to be my happily ever after.... So I was born a poor border collie mixed pup, in the miserable heat, in a disgusting backyard. To a mama that could have been so beautiful, if she had been brushed and cared for.... Fast forward thru almost 4 YEARS of misery and puppies, we were saved!!! I was saved with 9 newborn puppies and my sister/daughter/ cousin, etccc Princess and HER 9 PUPPIES TOO! We landed safe and sound at the rescue! We are now gorgeous girls and all pups grown and adopted! Now its time for me!! I am a single gal, and really don't like other dogs in my business. I want to be the Queen of the house :D Adopt me and I will fill YOUR home with my love and devotion. Local adoption fee is $300(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Meet Rooney. This handsome black-and-white senior is a 9–10-year-old Border Collie mix who came to us from local animal control. He hasn’t had an easy life, but he has a gentle heart and a real love for adventure. Rooney is a special-needs boy. He has cataracts and is going blind—currently he has roughly 50% vision. We want him to experience and enjoy all the sights he still can, and we’re hoping to place him in a loving home where he can feel safe, comfortable, and cherished for the rest of his life. Rooney is a sweet, loyal guy who enjoys exploring and will make a wonderful walking partner. He thrives on routine, reassurance, and quiet companionship. Because of his limited vision and past experiences, Rooney must be the only pet in the home—no cats, no other dogs—and he is not suitable for a household with children. Despite everything he has been through, this old soul still has so much love left to give. He deserves a calm, patient adopter who will help him navigate his world and give him the kindness and stability he’s always deserved. If you have a soft spot for seniors and want to make a true difference for a dog who needs it most, Rooney would love to meet you.

Story
Hello! I am new to the shelter! Please keep checking my profile for updates as the staff gets to know me better!If this dog has been successful in our play groups it is not a guarantee that a dog will be social with other dogs in their home or in public settings. Dogs are individuals and have personality conflicts, just like us. Play groups do not guarantee that territorial or resource guarding issues will not surface in the home. While play groups do help us get to know the dog`s better, once they are adopted their new environments and new relationships will influence their behavior in ways we cannot predict.Your dog’s adoption fee includes:- Current age-appropriate CORE Vaccines (Rabies/DHPP/Bordetella)- Heartworm Tested- Current on NexGard PLUS Monthly Preventative Chew (Flea/Tick/Heartworm Preventative & Dewormer)- Spaying or Neutering- 24-Petwatch MicrochipAdoption fee: $135.00Per state law, ALL ADOPTERS must purchase a non-refundable 2026 dog license at time of adoption for any canine three months and older.

Story
🐾 Meet Rusty! 🐾 Rusty is a 9-month-old Australian Kelpie/Shepherd mix who has already overcome more than any puppy should ever have to. Rusty came into rescue when he was just 3 months old after someone found him. At the time, he had what appeared to be a chemical burn running the entire length of his back. We don't know what happened to him or how he was injured, but thankfully, he made it into rescue and has been given the care and love he deserved. Rusty also suffered an eye injury. We don't know if it was related to what happened to his back, but unfortunately, his eye could not be saved and had to be removed. But losing an eye hasn't slowed this handsome boy down one bit! ❤️ Today, Rusty is a happy, healthy boy who is ready for his forever home. He has a medium activity level and enjoys going for walks, but he isn't looking for a home that never stops moving. He has great manners, gets along wonderfully with dogs of all ages, and does well in a crate. Rusty is the kind of dog who has been through a lot but hasn't let it change his sweet spirit. He deserves a family who will appreciate what a special boy he is and show him just how good life can be. ❤️ Rusty is neutered and ready to find his forever family! 🐾 9 months old 🐾 Australian Kelpie/Shepherd mix 🐾 Medium activity level 🐾 Loves walks 🐾 Great with dogs of all ages 🐾 Great manners 🐾 Crate trained 🐾 Neutered 🐾 Ready for adoption! 🏡❤️ 📍 Adoptions will take place at the North Fayette PetSmart in Robinson Township, PA. Our Rescue works side by side with that PetSmart! If you're interested in welcoming this precious pup into your family, send us a message! We'll be happy to send you an adoption application. 💲 Adoption Fee: $350 Your puppy's adoption fee includes: 🐶 Spay/neuter 💉 Age-appropriate vaccinations 🪱 Deworming ❤️ Current heartworm and flea prevention 📍 Microchip

My name is Kingston, and I'm on the hunt for my forever family. I was born on March 15, 2025, and I'm growing into a handsome young pup with a big heart and an even bigger love for life. My favorite thing in the whole world? WATER! If there's a pool, pond, creek, lake, sprinkler, or kiddie pool nearby, count me in. I'll be the first one splashing around and having the time of my life. When I'm not busy practicing my swimming skills, I'm making friends. I love people, enjoy meeting new dogs, and am always excited to be part of the fun. Whether we're going for a walk, exploring somewhere new, or hanging out in the backyard, I'm happiest when I'm with my favorite humans. I'm a social, friendly guy who greets life with a wagging tail and an adventurous spirit. I have the perfect combination of playful puppy energy and sweet companionship, making me an excellent sidekick for whatever adventures come our way. If you're looking for a loyal best friend who loves everyone he meets, never turns down a chance to play in the water, and is ready to make memories with you for years to come, I think we might be a perfect match. Come meet me! can't wait to make a splash in your life! Love, Kingston
