Story
Hi there, I’m Cora! I’m a sweet little lady at 10lbs—likely a Chihuahua/Jack Russell mix—somewhere between 7–10 years young. I came to Paws Across Pittsburgh expecting puppies, and I’ve been raising my three babies in a loving foster home. They tell me I’ve been an excellent mama, but my pups are getting ready to spread their wings, and now it’s my turn to find a forever family. I’m a gentle, quiet girl who would love a calm home with someone who’s around often. I sleep nicely in my crate at night and relax there when my foster family is out. I can be a bit shy with men and new people at first, but once I trust you, I’ll be your loyal little shadow and very best friend. I get along with other dogs, though my favorite place will always be the warmest spot on your lap. I’m missing a few teeth, so soft food is my preference—but it certainly doesn’t slow me down! I do well with outdoor potty breaks or a puppy pad, and while I’m not much of a barker, I’ll politely let you know when we have a visitor. I’m spayed, dewormed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations—ready to pack my tiny bags and move into my forever home. If you think we might be a perfect match, I’ll be available for adoption 12/17/25 through Paws Across Pittsburgh, Springdale, PA KL# 16182.  ##2590349##

Story
Meet Athena- a playful and sweet, 1 year old mixed breed dog who is ready for her forever family. Although Athena is 25-30 lbs, she likes to play and be social with other dogs even a little bigger than she is! Athena is crate trained and walks well on a leash. Athena loves car rides too! She likes to chase squirrels and small animals so a home without cats would be best along with a fenced in yard. Athena seems shy at first until she gets to know her surroundings. But once she is comfortable, she is very affectionate and lovable. She follows her human and doggie friends around the house and yard. Athena really enjoys her two bf's at her foster home so a home with another dog (or two!) would be best for Athena's confidence.  She's a smart girl who lets you know when she needs to go outside by going to the door.If you have room in your home for sweet Athena, please fill out an application today! She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccinations.  Please apply today at pawsacrosspittsburgh.com/adopt. Paws Across Pittsburgh, Springdale, PA. KL#16182 ##2575958##

Story
Meet Baxter! Baxter is a joyful, six-year-old Cocker Spaniel with a lovable personality and a whole lot of spunk. He's mostly housebroken, crate-trained, and brings happiness everywhere he goes! This sweet boy recently tested positive for Lyme, but he was a champ with his medication and completed his treatment with no complications. Baxter is a devoted companion who loves his people deeply. In true Cocker Spaniel fashion, he has shown some protective instincts-occasionally giving a warning growl if he feels another dog or person might be a threat to his foster mom-so he'll do best in a family without small children and an adopter who understands dog communication and isn't startled by a growl. He enjoys going outside but prefers when his human goes with him. With regular potty breaks and a little routine, he does wonderfully. If skipped, he may leave a "reminder," so he'll thrive with someone who can accompany him outdoors a few times a day. Baxter gets along well with the other dogs in his foster home and loves being near his people-following his foster mom from room to room. He settles nicely in a crate, though he may bark if he knows you're home and he's not with you. And when it's time to come out? Baxter celebrates like he just won the lottery! Baxter's ideal home is one without young children and with someone who is home more often than not, after all, he just wants to be cuddled on the couch 24/7. A fenced-in yard would be a wonderful bonus. He's a sweetheart who simply wants someone to love-and someone who appreciates his loyal, protective nature in return. If you're looking for a devoted companion with a big heart and an even bigger desire to cuddle, Baxter may be your perfect match. Do you have room in your heart to give Baxter a lifetime of love and snuggles? Apply today! ##2546703##

Story
Ivan is a gorgeous, ~3 year old, 65lb boy. We think he's a Lab / Carolina Dog mix based on his features. Regardless of breed, he’s a loyal guy looking for his forever human(s). Housetrained: Yes!Cratetrained: Yes!Neutered: Yes!Up to date on shots: Yes!Key fact: Ivan LOVES people. He adores head scratches and sitting near you.Favorite indoor activity: bones, bones, bones!!Favorite outdoor activity: zooming in the yard or helping my foster mom with gardeningDogs: Ivan would like to be your one and only Cats: Ivan thinks they are food, so no cats!When you're home, he loves to be with you and would happily keep you company while you do cook, watch tv, read, garden, or soak up the sun. He is also content chewing a bone or enjoying a kong. He has also stepped up his napping game. If you have a sectional, Ivan loves to snooze on the chaise while you snooze on the main part of the couch. Given his size and his personality, we are requiring a single family home with a fenced in yard or a home that would provide him with space to run! Older kids would be fine for Ivan. He can get excited and sometimes jump - please be willing to continue his training with this - so we feel best if his home doesn't have younger children or those unstable on their feet.  He is working on knowing that sitting calm = happy humans and/or treatos. Ivan is a boy with a heart of gold who will love you beyond measure. He may win you over when he leans into you, somehow both giving and requesting love. He deserves someone who will be patient with him. And give lots of pets and head kisses, which are his favorite. If you think this could be you, please apply for him today.

Story
Hello everyone! Meet Belle, a sweet senior looking for a new home after her senior owner could no longer care for the pets in the family.   Happy Birthday Belle!  She just turned 15 years young!.  She looks like a little Westie mix due to her ears!   When she is out and about, everyone tells her how cute she is.  Belle is visually impaired  but that doesn't stop her one bit!  She loves to explore the house and when she gets tired, she finds a comfy bed or blanket and plops down for a nap.  Belle loves to sniff so her favorite place is outside with her nose in the grass. She will walk short distances and she loves a good stroller ride!  Belle is working on her potty habits. She is usually good if taken out every two hours. She spends her alone time in a crate and keeps it clean most of the time. The only time she barks in it is  in the morning when she has to go outside!   A future adopter will have to be diligent so you can set her up for potty success!  A one-story home would be best for Belle’s safety, but her foster home is two-story and she has been safe with gates and a closed basement door.  A fenced-in yard would be best for her love of the outdoors, but is not a necessity.  Someone home more often would be needed to continue with her potty training.  We are looking for someone with a BIG heart to add Belle to your home.  Yes, she is a visually imparied senior but she is so sweet and deserves a great home to live out her senior years!  ##2352180##
