Story
Jackson has been in our family since he was 8 weeks old. He was born on May 3rd, 2023, and we acquired him from an experienced breeder. He needs updated vaccinations and check-up. Jackson is very patient around children. He is microchipped. Unfortunately, I will be selling my house by December 2025 and many of the rentals in the area either do not allow dogs or have a strict weight restriction so we can’t bring him along.

Story
Meet Ripley fka Panera: Ripley is a 1 year old (as of September 2025) cattle dog / lab / terrier mix (our best guess) that weighs about 37 pounds. She’s an absolute cuddle bug. She is your typical young dog, so she’s extra cute and spunky. She may be small for her breed but is packed with personality! She is a “Velcro dog” who always wants to be attached at the hip, thus earning her the nickname - “Grippy.” Ripley plays hard and cuddles even harder. She is very talkative and will let you know when she wants something or if someone is nearby. She knows sit, down, and has excellent recall skills. Ripley has been through a lot in the short time she’s been on this earth, so it can take some time for her to warm up to someone. She is initially scared of new dogs, animals, and strangers. She does well with slow introductions, but once she trusts you, she’ll be your best companion. Although she has an abundance of great qualities, she would do best as an only pet in a home and no small children. She likes to play with other dogs but doesn’t like to share. Ripley needs an experienced foster or adopter who has time to give her the mental and physical stimulation she needs and knows how to handle resource guarding behaviors.  Ripley is house-trained and crate-trained. We would love for Ripley to have a home with a fenced in yard for her to run and play freely. Ripley is up to date on her vaccinations and is spayed. If you are interested in adding this adorable girl into your life, please go to Charlie’s Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application. CURRENT LOCATION: Foster Home in Lancaster, PA 17602 Kennel License #17584 ##2256345##

Story
Meet Maurice: Maurice is a 2 year 3 months old (as of April 2025) pit / lab mix (best guess) that weighs around 53 pounds. Maurice is timid but sweet. He gives lots of kisses, likes belly rubs, and will paw for more attention. He loves being outside where he can sniff things, watch squirrels and birds, and run around. A fenced-in yard or someone looking for a walking buddy would be ideal for Maurice. He is great in the car, crate and house-trained, and will entertain himself with chew bones.  Maurice is currently in a foster home in the Leesport, PA area. Maurice gets along well with other dogs, but prefers female canine companions who don't mind that he's an attention hog. Maurice is fearful of men and would thrive best in a home with only women. We would love for Maurice to have a home with a fenced in yard for him to run and play! Maurice is up to date on his shots and neutered. If you are interested in adopting this sweetie, please go to Charlie’s Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application. CURRENT LOCATION: Foster Care in Leesport, PA  19533 Kennel License #17584 ##1655305##

Story
Meet Sherman: Sherman is estimated to be about a 2 year old (as of August 2025) chihuahua / Jack Russel terrier mix that weighs around 10 pounds. Sherman and his travelling companion, Gerald, were taken in by the Memphis animal shelter early in the summer. We were able to pull them from the shelter and get them into a foster home with our rescue. Sherman is currently being fostered in the south and would love to take the freedom ride north to Pennsylvania to meet more prospective families. Sherman is a bit laid back and is perfectly happy sitting in your lap, but he has to be invited on because he usually doesn't ask or demand the seat. Sherman is very friendly and is very playful. Sherman took quickly to learning the doggie door concept and we feel he would also be able to quickly navigate a more traditional house training technique. We would love for Sherman to have a home with a fenced in yard so he can play freely, however it is not a requirement. Sherman is up to date on his shots and neutered. If you are interested in giving him a great home, please go to Charlie’s Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application.

Story
Meet Gerald: Gerald is estimated to be about a 7 year old (as of August 2025) chihuahua / Jack Russel terrier mix that weighs around 16 pounds. Gerald and his travelling companion, Sherman, were taken in by the Memphis animal shelter early in the summer. We were able to pull them from the shelter and get them into a foster home with our rescue. Gerald is currently being fostered in the Lancaster, PA area and would love to meet his forever family. Gerald is a velcro dog that is very prompt about jumping in your lap and soaking up your affection. Gerald has a little bit of hair loss due to a previous flea allergy. With or without the fur, Gerald is a handsome guy. He is good with other dogs that are his size. He is still active, although not as playful as the younger pups. He would do best in a home without cats, as his prey drive kicks in when he sees the foster's cats. Gerald is house trained and crate trained, he evens sleeps through the night in his crate. We would love for Gerald to have a home with a fenced in yard so he can play freely, however it is not a requirement. Gerald is up to date on his shots and neutered. If you are interested in gaining a little shadow and giving him a great home, please go to Charlie’s Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application.

Story
Meet Alba: Alba is about a 2 year old (as of November 2025) terrier mix that weighs 46 pounds. Alba was spotted wandering in a park by one of our rescuers while they went to and from work. The rescuer was able to get her to come to her after about a week of stopping to try. We are so glad we were able to get this sweet girl to safety. Alba is currently being fostered in the south and would love to take the freedom ride north to Pennsylvania to meet more prospective families. Alba is super energetic, super friendly and a very social girl. Alba does great in the car! Alba is friendly and affectionate and loves to play. With her energy and playfulness we believe she would thrive with some training to harness her good girl abilities. Alba has been fostered indoors and does well with other dogs and cats. Alba is house trained and crate trained. Alba is up to date on her shots and spayed. If you would like to add this playmate into your life, please go to Charlie’s Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application.
