Story
Hi there, my name is Pearl!I spent a long time as a stray dog until a nice family captured me! That time on the loose has left me a somewhat reserved and uncertain girl so I take a little bit of time to warm up to new people. I walk well on a leash (unless I see other puppers around! then I get a little excited). I am housebroken and my manners are so good, I can be left alone in the house! Once I settle in, I love snuggling with my person and lounging on the couch. I just need a loving and patient home. I would prefer a quiet home with children 15 and older, as well as no other animals. If you would like to give me a chance, then let's give it a whirl! ---If you are interested in adopting, please come prepared --bring a photo ID, proof of address, and everyone in the home including resident dogs with vaccination history. We are open daily 12-6pm. ---The Pennsylvania SPCA - Lancaster Center848 S. Prince St. Lancaster PA 17603Kennel #16516717-917-6979lancaster@pspca.org

Story
Hi, I'm Harper! I'm a cute little pittie with a heart of gold and the goofiest personality around. I am rather timid and it takes me a loooong time to make new friends but man is it worth it! I'm looking for a patient adult only home where I can be the only pet. That sounds like a lot, but let me tell you, I'm worth it! I love going for walks and I walk well on a leash. My short term foster said that I'm house broken, crate trained and I'm an excellent snuggler. Here at the shelter, I go on car rides and long hikes with my friends and I'm always a perfect partner. Do you have a quiet household, without a lot of visitors and want a dog that'll love you unconditionally? You found your match! Email my friends to learn more about me and to get an application.---This animal is available by appointment only - please reach out to schedule a visit with one of their handlers!---The Pennsylvania SPCA - Lancaster Center848 S.

Story
Howdy, I'm Matteo! I initially came to the shelter as a stray and after some time I found a wonderful home, but sadly they fell on hard times and had to bring me back to the shelter. Now my search begins again for the perfect family. I can be a bit sensitive with handling and shy around new people, but I do enjoy lots of attention and affection once I warm up. My previous adopter did mention that I can be especially weary of strangers coming into the home, so a quieter environment is preferable. I would like to be the only pet in the home because I don't want to share the spotlight. I also ask that any kids in the home be 8 and older who can respect my sensitivity and boundaries. If I sound like the right fit for you then come on over and let's meet!---If you are interested in adopting, please come prepared --bring a photo ID, proof of address, and everyone in the home including resident dogs with vaccination history.

Story
Hi there, I'm Nolan! I'm a fun-loving pup on the hunt for my forever home. I'm eager to explore the world around me, play, and learn how to be a well-behaved canine citizen. I have lots (and I mean LOTS) of energy, and I'm still working on my training and can get a bit over-excited at times - that's why I'm looking for a family who is dedicated to helping me become the best version of myself. My foster mom says that I walk well on a leash and I love to learn so a good student is what I am!Ideally, I'd love to find a home with someone who has experience with dogs and where any children are 13 years or older. I'm also looking for a home where I can be the only dog, as I want to be the center of your world. While I'm not sure how I feel about cats, I promise I'm a sweet pup who just needs a little direction and patience. I am housebroken and crate trained. Once I've had my exercise for the day, I'm also an amazing cuddler and enjoy lounging on the couch.If you're looking for a loyal and loving companion, I could be the perfect match for you. So why not give me a chance and let's see if we can become the best of friends!---This dog is available BY APPOINTMENT only as he is living in foster care. ---The Pennsylvania SPCA - Lancaster Center848 S.

Story
Hey, I'm Newton! I am a handsome hunk looking for my furever home. I am very excitable and have lots of energy, so I could definitely use some obedience training to channel it into being the best dog ever. I have shown a fear of strangers when I am with my people so behavior modification training would also help me out a lot. Having a canine companion may be good for me so I have reassurance and learn not to redirect my nervousness into reactivity. I do ask that any children in the home are 15 and older due to some handling sensitivity and over-arousal behavior. I am not sure how I feel about cats but may be able to live with one given proper introduction. I know I will need some work and dedication to be my best self, but your efforts will be rewarded with an exuberant, happy, fantastic friend. I would be a wonderful addition to your life if you'll consider adopting me!---This animal is living in foster care and available by APPOINTMENT ONLY.---The Pennsylvania SPCA - Lancaster Center848 S.
