Story

Meet Honey — a sweet little girl from the Honey Nut Cheerios litter who is ready to trade her littermates for a family of her very own. Honey is a female Chihuahua/Shih Tzu mix with an adorable face, a big personality, and all the charm you’d expect from a little girl named Honey. She’s at the age where she’s beginning to discover the world around her, and she’s looking for a family who will help her continue that journey with plenty of love, patience, and guidance. Her ideal home will understand that bringing home a young dog is the beginning of a commitment—not just a few cute puppy weeks. Honey will need someone ready to help her learn the routines, boundaries, and skills that will set her up to become the wonderful companion she’s meant to be. Honey will be arriving in Pottstown, PA on September 18, and we are accepting foster-to-adopt applications through September 13. If you’ve been waiting for a little girl to add some sweetness to your life, Honey may be exactly who you’ve been looking for.

Story

Meet Meadow, one of the sweet little travelers of our Open Road Litter. Meadow is a female puppy with a whole lot of life ahead of her and a pretty exciting journey still to come. Found with her siblings with no mama or dad in sight, she’s now getting the chance to grow up surrounded by love, care, and all the good things a puppy should know. She’s ready to leave the unknown behind and start the next chapter of her story with a family who will make her part of theirs. Meadow will arrive in Pennsylvania on September 18, and we are accepting adoption applications through September 13. She will be available through our two-week foster-to-adopt program, giving her future family the opportunity to bring her home, get to know her, establish a routine, and make sure she’s the right fit before finalizing her adoption. If you think Meadow might be the little traveler you’ve been looking for, please complete our adoption application to be considered for foster-to-adopt.

Story

Meet Nut — one of the little guys from our Honey Nut Cheerios litter, and he’s ready to find a family of his very own. Nut is a male Chihuahua/Shih Tzu mix with an adorable face and a personality that is just beginning to shine. He’s at a great age for discovering the world around him, learning new things, and figuring out all the little routines that come with being part of a family. His new family should be prepared to give him the consistency, patience, and guidance every young dog needs as he grows. Nut isn’t looking for a temporary place to land—he’s looking for the people who will help him grow into the wonderful companion he’s meant to become and be there for all the years that follow. Nut will be arriving in Pottstown, PA on September 18, and we are accepting foster-to-adopt applications through September 13. If a sweet little boy has been missing from your family, Nut may just be the one who fills that spot.

Story

Fable is a 3 month old lab-mix puppy. She is currently 20+ pounds so will likely be on the large side (no apartments). She is a bit reserved but is loving once she warms up. She came with a bit of separation anxiety but we have worked through 75% of that already. She may need a bit of help at the beginning in her new home to fully outgrow it. She is smart and sweet and loves being outside – she also is fine chewing toys on her own. She is potty trained and knows sit and come, and will quickly learn anything else her owner would like. She is going to be a great and loving addition for the lucky family/person who chooses to invite her into their home! She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and will be available for adoption starting 9/13/26.

Story

Meet Toffee: Toffee is about a 17 week old (as of September 4, 2026) hound mix (best guess) that weighs about 15 pounds. This adorable “sweets litter” (Twix, KitKat, Hershey, Brownie and Toffee) was found abandoned in a crate and dropped on the front porch of a known animal advocate. Toffee is being fostered in the south and would love to catch the next freedom ride north to Pennsylvania to meet more prospective families! Toffee and her littermates are all very friendly and happy pups! They get along great with other dogs and have been good with the cats they have been around. Toffee is very laid back and sweet as can be. This entire litter had parvo when abandoned and miraculously all survived! After love and care these survivors love people and to be held and loved on! Toffee will make a great family dog. Toffee is working on house training, but as a puppy, she will need some patience while she continues to master the process. Toffee is crate trained and learning how to walk on a leash. We would love for Toffee to have a home with a fenced in yard for her to run and play freely as she grows. Toffee is up to date on her puppy shots and will need to be spayed when age appropriate. If you are interested in giving this sweet one a great life, please go to Charlie’s Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application. CURRENT LOCATION: Arkansas, awaiting transport to PA. ##2837307##
