Story
Meet Mutt Damon!! His DOB is 12/1/2023. He is around 50 lbs. He was an owner surrender due to a death in the family, so we know that is his real birthday. That makes him over a year old. He is HIGH energy. He is going to need physical and mental stimulation daily to ensure he is being fulfilled. He is a Labrador/Pointer mix. He will match well with dogs who can match his energy. Cats who are used to dogs will be best. He likes to jump so he will probably knock over small children.** Mutt Damon is in our care in Altoona PA. He is available for adoption. Each animal gets microchipped, spayed/neutered and vaccinated. The adoption fee covers those costs. Adoption fees are listed on the application. In person applications take priority over ones mailed or emailed (especially on a popular animal). An application must be filled out in order to visit with any dog or cat. They can be found on our website www.centralpahumane.org under the Adopt A Pet tab or at the shelter. Our animals are posted on Facebook and Petfinder when time permits. A Petfinder inquiry is not an application, and they may not be responded to. We can only accept so many applications for each animal. We do adopt out of state, but we cannot hold the animal. **PA Kennel License #1333.

Story
Bricks is a 5 year old male. We believe he is an American Eskimo mix (maybe). He acts like a big tough guy behind a barrier however once that is removed, he is a chill guy. He can live with kids, cats and other dogs. He marks so we would recommend a belly band to help him adjust to his new home. This is us telling you that he is probably not house trained so don`t return him for this reason.** Bricks is in our care in Altoona PA. He is available for adoption.

Story
Meet Bumfuzzle! He is a 1 year old male. He weighs 32 lbs. He is an Aussie mix. He is a shy guy but once he has time to settle in he comes around. He seems unsure of other dogs at first. Super high energy ones will scare him. We will do a dog test with anyone interested. He was very interested in the kitties but walked away when called. He should be fine with children who understand his personality. ** Bumfuzzle is in our care in Altoona PA. He is available for adoption. Each animal gets microchipped, spayed/neutered and vaccinated.
