Male, Young

Easton, PA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,

Story

Where did you acquire your pet? We adopted Cooper (previously named Chase) from Riverview Rescue in October. How old is your pet? He is a little over a year old, he will be 2 in December. What are you looking for in a new home? We are seeking a home where Cooper can be the only male dog or placed with a compatible female dog, ideally in a calm and structured environment. He needs space, love, and an owner willing to continue working on his behavioral needs, especially around food and toys. A home without small children would likely be best, given his mouthy tendencies and recent incident with our other dog. We are especially looking for someone who understands dogs with anxiety and can provide consistency, affection, and patience. What adjectives would you use to describe your pet? Sweet Loving Affectionate Energetic Anxious Loyal Playful Intelligent

Akasha

Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, 2 yrs

Springdale, PA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained,

Story

Meet Akasha – Your Snuggle Buddy for Life. At just 2 years old and a perfect 16 pounds, Akasha is the ideal size for lap cuddles—and lucky for you, cuddling is her favorite activity. With her sleek frame and sweet nature, she’s believed to be a Miniature Pinscher mix, though her exact breed is a mystery. Akasha is a quiet, gentle soul who puts herself to bed each night in her crate like a little pro. She's doing wonderfully with housetraining on a consistent schedule and continues to thrive in her foster home. She absolutely loves people—especially kids—and greets everyone she meets with a wagging tail and soft eyes. While she currently lives with dogs of all sizes, she prefers human companionship over canine playtime. She may be happiest as your one-and-only cuddle bug or with another calm companion. Her feelings about cats are still unknown. Akasha has the most charming little habits—she loves to stand up on her hind legs like a tiny circus performer, and she’s often spotted with her tongue adorably poking out. Between that and her snuggles, she’s impossible not to fall for. This smart girl already knows how to sit politely when getting her leash on or off, and she's treat-motivated—making her a quick learner who’s eager to please. Akasha is affectionate, sweet, and ready to bring joy and snuggles into your life. She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, and will be available for adoption starting 5/10 through Paws Across Pittsburgh, Springdale, PA KL# 16182. ##2384540##
