Story
✨Meet Lilly Girl!✨ Lilly Girl is a 7-year-old Dachshund mix who came into us as a surrender from a commercial breeding facility (aka Puppy Mill) in Lancaster County. Lilly Girl had a very difficult life before coming to us, being used as a mill mama her entire life. She is shut down at this time but is slowly starting to give us her trust. We are confident she will make a wonderful family member for a very lucky family, who understands her past and gives her the time she needs to trust them and her new surroundings. Lilly Girl loves other animals, and will thrive in a home with at least one other dog. Adopting a puppy mill survivor is life-changing—for you and them. For these dogs, everything is new and often overwhelming: people, houses, stairs, leashes, food bowls, collars, toys, TVs, ovens, doorways, pavement…the list goes on. They need adopters who can move slowly, be patient, keep expectations reasonable, and provide the understanding and tools they need to grow into happy, confident companions. Patience, positive reinforcement, and understanding are key! We promise there is nothing that compares to gaining the love and trust of a mill mama, but it requires intentional effort and commitment from their new family. With the right guidance, puppy mill survivors can blossom into well-socialized, joyful dog- so our goal is always to ensure every adopter is fully prepared to give them the life and environment they need to truly thrive! If you are interested in being considered for them please apply on our website at www.angelsretreat.org 💕🐾 Angel’s Retreat West Chester, PA PA Kennel License 17335

Story
Otis is a loving, playful, and incredibly loyal pup who's been my companion for the past several years. I adopted him from a shelter in Philadelphia when he was about 1.5 years old, after he was found as a stray on the streets of Atlanta. Since then, Otis has grown into a loyal, curious, and deeply affectionate dog. Indoors, he can be both relaxed and playful; tossing toys around or nudging you for a game of tug or fetch; while still being content to curl up nearby for a nap. Outside, he lights up even more; whether he's chasing squirrels, lying in the sun, or exploring the world around him. He's happiest when he has space to roam, a soft spot to rest, and someone nearby he trusts. My job now requires me to travel frequently, and it’s become increasingly difficult to provide Otis with the stable, active lifestyle he deserves. Otis is currently living near me with a co-owner/friend but needs a forever home with plenty of outdoor space. It could be you!

Story
Located in Tennessee but can be transported to you through Rescue Riders. This girl was brought in with babies when her owner couldn't take care of her. She was not socialized very well so will need some work. She will need a very patient person to get her to come out of her shell. She was kept outside so she has no house manners, nor has she been with cats. She does do well with dogs her size and seems to like to play with them. She deserves a new chance to be a loved dog and companion. She will take a lot of time and investment but deserves a chance!

Story
This unique 7 year old 25-pound Dachshund/Pit Bull mix has a white coat and a heart full of love for his favorite people. He is an exceptionally smart boy who is already house-trained and good at following some commands. He is leash trained and enjoys going on walks. While he is a champion snuggler, he can be selective about his friends. He has preferences for certain people and requires slow, proper introductions to other dogs. Because he values his personal space and predictable environments, he is looking for a calm, loving home without small children. He is being rehomed because our family has grown by two children. He recently bit our toddler when she got in his space. He has previously nipped at new people (when they were not using good dog etiquette). His defensive behavior seems to have increased since having children.
