Story
Current Location: Spring Grove, PA Meet Ippy: A Well-Adjusted Snuggle Bug Looking for a Second Chance Ippy is a 3 year old, 22 pound Dachshund mix with lovely brown and tan coloring and the classic low rider build that makes this breed so utterly charming. This handsome boy found himself at the shelter through heartbreaking circumstances. Sadly, his owner passed away and there was no one left to care for him. This sweet boy lost the person he loved most and is now searching for someone to love him again. Exceptionally Well Adjusted If his foster is being honest, she doesn't get many dogs this well adjusted. Ippy is 100% house trained, does well in a crate, and is submissive to the other dogs in his foster home. He is a well mannered snuggle bug who knows how to be a perfect houseguest from day one. The Complete Package Ippy has excellent manners, a charming low rider build, and a heart ready to bond deeply with his next person. He's clearly been loved and well cared for, and it shows in every aspect of his behavior. He just needs someone to give him the second chance he so deeply deserves. Best Home Fit Ippy would thrive in any home that will appreciate his wonderful temperament and give him the love and stability he's lost. He's ready to snuggle, be your loyal low riding companion, and bring his well adjusted, loving nature into your life. If you're looking for a well mannered, affectionate companion who is ready to give you all the love he has, Ippy is waiting to meet you. Give this deserving boy the second chance he needs.

Story
At about 8 years old, Tod is a distinguished Corgi–Chihuahua mix with the shortest little legs and a surprisingly big personality tucked into his sturdy, compact frame. He’s equal parts gentleman and character - a thoughtful, independent little guy who knows exactly who he is and would very much like to be appreciated for it.Tod came back to rescue with some history, but in his foster home he has been nothing short of wonderful. Over the past several months, he’s proven himself to be attentive, responsive, and delightfully easy to live with. He’s housebroken, quiet, good in the car, listens well, and settles beautifully in his crate. He truly thrives when life is calm, consistent, and predictable. He’s the kind of dog who quietly fits into your routine and somehow makes it better.Like many dogs who’ve had their routines disrupted, he can be a bit reserved when meeting new people - he prefers polite introductions and a little time to decide you’re worthy - but once you’re in, you’re in. Tod becomes deeply loyal and wonderfully devoted. He’s very much a “my person” kind of dog who will happily coexist nearby, keeping you company with his steady, reassuring presence.Tod is reportedly cat-friendly (though his foster doesn’t have cats to confirm), and he would do best in a home without young children. He could potentially live with another calm, independent dog in an experienced home, but truthfully? He shines brightest as the only dog, soaking up the peace and the quiet attention.He would love a home with a yard to explore on his adorable little legs, a couple of dependable meals a day, and people who appreciate a dog with charm, independence, and a whole lot of heart. He’s not needy or chaotic - he’s cool, composed, and quietly charismatic.Tod isn’t looking to be everyone’s dog. He’s looking to be someone’s dog. And for the right person, he’s going to be absolutely irresistible.If you’d like to take Tod home, please fill out an adoption application at this link – https://animalalliesrescue.org/dog-application. The adoption fee is $150 and covers all expenses needed to prepare dogs like this one for their forever homes. By the time you meet them, they’ve already been spayed/neutered (if age-appropriate) and microchipped. They’ve been checked by a veterinarian and are up to date on necessary vaccinations, including Rabies and DHLPP. They have also been tested for heartworm and tick-borne diseases and have start

Story
PLEASE READ ENTIRE BIO TO THE BOTTOM Opie and Pearl are 2 gorgeous chi/terrier mix pups that are as sweet as can be. Opie is the male and he weighs approximately 14 lbs. Pearl is the female, and she weighs right at 9 lbs. We believe they were born around September 30th, which will put them around 4 months old. We do not believe they will get much bigger than they are now as they have already hit their growth spurt. They are siblings but they are not bonded. One of our volunteers was driving down the road in Texas, by the Mexico border, when these 2 puppies ran out in the road and almost got ran over. They were not street smart. Our volunteer followed the puppies and found the home they belonged to. We found out these 2 puppies (and the momma dog) belonged to a couple who had gotten them for their adult autistic son. The puppies and mom had never seen a veterinarian, and they did not have a fence to secure them, so they would just open the door and let the dogs out to go running the streets and neighborhood. Thankfully, they agreed to surrender the puppies to us, but unfortunately, they would not let us have the mom. The mom weighed around 18 lbs. These pups are very sweet, and very submissive. They act shy, but once you baby talk them, they become jello and just start wiggling their butts, rolling over for tummy rubs and just melt. Pearl is a little more outgoing than Opie, but they are both learning to love humans. They love other dogs and get along great with them! They have met cats and do fine with them. They have toys and enjoy playing with them, but they enjoy mischief a little bit more. When they are in their crate, they think the best game is which one can pull more stuff into the crate from outside of the crate. Pearl and Opie love sleeping on the bed/couch! They are crate trained, and working on full house training. We recommend kids 5+ years for these 2 as they may shy away from younger children. If you’re looking for a smaller dog that doesn’t shed too much, enjoy being held, will be the most loyal companions and follow you everywhere and cuddle when you let them, please look no further than Opie or Pearl. These babies are FIXED (spayed/neutered), current on parvo/distemper vaccinations, current on bordatella, current on annual rabies vaccine, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, current on dewormer, microchipped, fecal test, will receive a clean bill of health from a veterinarian. To apply to adopt you can go to our website at: www.pawsitive-Impact-animal-rescue.org This animal is currently located in Texas, but we do NOT adopt animals out in Texas due to the hundreds of animals being euthanized here daily. We do adopt in Central US and the East Coast. The adoption fee listed INCLUDES transport from Texas to the location where this animal is posted in. Transport goes to the following locations every 2-3 weeks: Albany, NY Wells and Brattleboro, VT Willington, CT Port Chester, NY Dayon and Akron, OH Grove City and Bloomsburg, PA Ridgefield and Mt Laurel, NJ White Marsh, MD and Falls Church, VA We have happily adopted hundreds of animals this way (long distance), and we do our best to make sure the animal you are applying for is best fit for your home.

Story
Whimsy is a quiet, steady companion who enjoys simply being part of your world—without needing to be handled or touched unless she chooses to be. She shows affection in her own way and on her own terms, making her a wonderful match for someone who appreciates a dog that values personal space and calm companionship. She’s wonderfully independent, happy to relax nearby, join you for an outing, or hang out while you go about your day. She doesn’t seek out physical affection, but she does enjoy being close and included. When it’s time for fun, Whimsy has playful, high-energy moments. The rest of the time, she’s a laid-back couch potato who is easy to live with. She’s crate trained, walks beautifully on a leash, rides well in the car, and stays calm and quiet in the home. She’s observant, gentle in her own way, and content to entertain herself. Whimsy would do best in a home without cats. If you’re looking for a calm yet spirited dog who offers companionship without constant physical contact, Whimsy might be exactly who you’ve been hoping for. Her adoption fee of $300 covers her spay, vaccines, parasite prevention, and a microchip. Visit www.fullcirclerescueandsanctuary.com to fill out an application.
