Story
I am currently Fostering Whoopie and Looking for his Forever Home. Whoopie is a 9-month-old, potty-trained puppy who already knows multiple commands and is eager to learn more. He is affectionate, friendly with people and other dogs, and loves to cuddle. He has an active, playful side but does very well settling down once he’s had proper exercise and mental enrichment. Whoopie forms strong bonds and is incredibly loyal. He is currently working through some separation anxiety, so he would thrive in a home where someone has the time and commitment to help him build confidence. Due to his size and puppy energy, a home without very young children would be ideal, though he is good with kids. Whoopie is a truly special dog and will make a loving, devoted companion for the right family.

Story
I got her from a breeder in Allentown, she is a healthy energetic husky which require a lot of attention and consistency, which I am afraid I cannot deliver. Arya is a 14 weeks old beatiful husky, she has heterochromia ( sky blue and light brown eyes) so as gorgeous as huskies can be. Her personality is vibrant, she has a really big character. Arya is considered to be potty trained for a puppy as long as you let her out every now and then, but she is yet not really house trained due to my busy schedule. If you have got any interest in adopting this beautiful puppy hit me up.

Story
Kenobi was rescued from the Harrisburg Humane Society where he was brought in as a stray. He is very friendly, loves belly-rubs and is very much a licker! He is estimated to be about 2 years old, definitely in his teen phase. Kenobi needs an active lifestyle and a home that will give him lots of space and time to run and play. He is highly energetic and loves a good round of tug of war. He is reactive (barking and sometimes lunging) at other dogs or small animals when on walks, but behaves appropriately when able to get close and interact with other animals. He is not aggressive or much of a barker beyond when he needs some attention or senses danger!

Story
She is sweet. She is kind She is Hunny! This lovely lady came to us as a stray and we`ve taken some time to get to know her. She loves to play, and soak up all the attention she can. She loves to go on walks and does well on the leash so we think she would be a good hiking companion. She would do well in a hone with another some older kiddos or even a doggie friend to play with. She will need some help getting onto a potty schedule in her new home so if you are interested in adoption please feel free to apply for her at www.clearfieldcountyspca.org.

Story
This lovely little lady is Coalette. She came back to us with no fault of her own She absolutely loves to be loved. She will snuggle up with you and soak up all the attention you`re willing to give her. Belly rubs are her absolute favorite. Second would be small squeaky toys that she loves to carry around and play with. She does very well for he baths but will need some help with leash and potty training. She sits like a perfect princess when asked to, and she is again looking for her furrever home. She is gentle with, and loves to be around children. We think she would do best as the only animal in the home with kiddos for her to love on and paly with. If you are interested in a new furry addition to the family look no further and apply for her at www.clearfieldcountyspca.org today!

Story
Greyson is a 1 year old male who gets along great with dogs and cats and loves traveling on road trips. He would do fine living with fur siblings or alone, but hasn’t had much interaction with kids, so kids 10+ might be best because of his energy and strength. He is crate trained for 7 work hours, is house trained with no accidents in his crate or in the house. He’s affectionate, well behaved one on one and playful and energetic around his fur siblings. We often travel and stay with family who have cats and he does not bother them. He loves chewing on strong Kong toys and peanut butter filled bones which have helped him with a desire to chew and keeps him busy. In public he is a people watcher and doesn’t bark at anyone. He’s strong on the leash so a harness is recommended. His favorite time is meal time where he loves watching me make his breakfast and dinner which I use Purina One chicken and rice with fresh cooked chicken, brown rice or sweet potatoes and peas mixed with dry.
