Ava is 1 yr and 3 months old, female, pitbull mix. Shes up to date on her shots. Shes great with children and other animals There is no rehoming fee. We are located in Lansford PA. Only reason she needs to be rehomed is because i start chemotherapy on Monday. My health is awful, and my strength is not what it use to be. I'm struggling financially to care for my children and myself because of being unemployed due to health. Somebody please help me to find this sweet girl a home 😢 ❤️

Story
Luna is a 5-year-old German Shepherd who’s incredibly sweet, playful, and loving with the people she knows and trusts. Once she bonds with you, she’s a devoted companion who will brighten your days with her happy and playful nature. However, Luna needs a patient and understanding adopter. She’s territorial and hasn’t been socialized with new people, so she can be aggressive toward strangers, especially in her space. She has bitten when scared, so she’ll do best with someone experienced and willing to help her build trust. Luna thrives in a quiet home with no small kids or other pets. A slow introduction in a neutral space will help her get comfortable. With time, structure, and love, Luna will be an amazing, loyal companion for the right person. I’d love to introduce you to this sweet girl and help her find her perfect home. Unfortunately if a home isnt found for her soon she will be euthanized.

Great dog for a family. I have had Rex for a little over a year but since I moved my landlord will only allow me to have one dog at my property so it saddens me but I must find this little loving, playful pup a great home to go into. He's good with kids. He loves to play and he'll do circles around the whole house lol.

Story
Faye is basically a new arrival here, she passed thru momentarily after arriving from a shelter and has since had a litter of puppies. That stress of life is over now and she is starting to relax and be playful, coming out of her shell a bit and seeing other possibilities. Overall she favors women it seems, but is lightening up towards men now. She looks at toys as useful now and enjoys exploring the office and her new simplified routine. She can be quite loving it has been noted.

Story
Update: As of today, 1/28/25, I'm headed to Char-Wills' Prison Program, but should be back in about a month! Check back for updates on my return. -- Sequoia is a dog in her own class. She probably has some European background she is highly intelligent and reminiscent of a dog that was recently here named Lola. Sequoia has rich sable colors and has had some training will benefit from a shepherd savvy person or a top gun type owner. She is smart and is in great shape and will seek toys that you place for her.

Story
Update: As of today, 1/28/25, I'm headed to Char-Wills' Prison Program, but should be back in about a month! Check back for updates on my return. -- Lexi here! I came from a home where I was loved but they couldn't keep me. I was then adopted and came back through no fault of my own; they loved me too. They called me Karma, but I remember my name is Lexi. I know sit, down, come, speak, crate, and I walk well on a leash. I was learning place in my obedience class too. I like cats and I've been okay with other dogs. I don't even mind children, but I do mind if they're too loud or fast so older ones for me please. I am a wonderful dog, everyone has said so. I just need a place that isn't too loud. My adoptive home was near trains, large trucks, and airplanes. That was a little much for me. What's my ideal home? A person or family who live in a quieter place and will keep building my confidence. That's it, my only specific wishes beyond love. Come and meet me, you won't be disappointed.
