Nescopeck, PA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Good with kids, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Scrappy is a loyal, intelligent 10-year-old dog who has been with me since he was only two months old. He has a protective spirit and a big bark, but he has never harmed anyone or another pet. He is fully house-trained, knows many tricks, and still shows the confident personality that made him such an incredible companion all these years. He is gentle, alert, and loves being close to his person. Rehoming him is one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever faced. I developed severe allergies and asthma this past year, and even with treatment, my health has been affected. Scrappy deserves a loving, steady home where he can enjoy his senior years with someone who will appreciate his loyalty, his intelligence, and his sweet, protective nature. He has been the best dog anyone could ask for, and I want him to have a home that will love him as much as I always have.

Story
Ares is a joyful, friendly three-year-old dog with the happiest spirit. He loves to play, has plenty of energy, and brings a sweet, innocent presence to any home. He does well with other dogs, follows commands, and is fully house-trained. He has a natural hunter instinct, so he enjoys chasing squirrels and small animals, but he is gentle and loving with people and pets. Letting him go is incredibly difficult. I’ve developed severe allergies and asthma over the past year, and despite treatment, my health has been affected. Ares deserves a home where he can run, play, and be loved the way he deserves. He has been one of the best dogs I’ve ever had, and I want him to find a family who will cherish his bright, joyful personality.

Story
My wife got her as a puppy in Colorado. She was mostly raised in a dog house in their back yard while getting some training. Though about 5 years ago we moved to Pennsylvania and she has lived inside the house ever since. She is getting a little older but still loves to play. She is house trained, but doesn't like to be completely alone. We have a second dog who She gets along with after some adjustments. We also have a cat who Shadow is very curious of but doesn't understand the concept of giving the cat space. Shadow also loves going down slides at play grounds. Recently had a daughter who Shadow is very attentive towards. However with all the changes going on we're finding it hard to care for her with the same attention. We want to give her to a good home where she can get the love and attention she enjoys.

Guess what? My “time in jail” is officially over! I’m back at the rescue and ready to find someone to love me and give me the forever home I’ve been waiting for. I know my basic commands—sit, stay, and come—and I walk well on a short leash. I get along with other dogs as long as they’re respectful and good with me. Come meet me and see if we’re the perfect match!
