Story
Athena is a hippo-shaped bully with the softest soul. She was surrendered at no fault of her own and is still learning that it’s okay to settle in and feel safe again. At first, Athena can be a little reserved, but once she comes out of her shell, her gentle, affectionate side starts to shine. Athena is looking for a calm, quiet home where she can truly relax and enjoy her golden years. Her perfect day includes long naps, cozy spots to lounge, and plenty of love from her people. If you’re searching for a low-key companion who will happily soak up affection and return it tenfold, Athena may be your perfect match. 3159 Susquehanna Trail N York PA 17406 Kennel #:3537

Story
Bubbles is an incredibly people-focused girl who bonds fast and wants to be right by your side—she loves to sleep cuddled up close, potties outside immediately, and eats great. After her initial excitement she settles nicely and truly shines with one-on-one time, forming a deep attachment to her person. She can become overstimulated and get a bit mouthy or hyper-fixated, so she’ll benefit from structure and positive training as she continues to learn. Bubbles would do best as the only pet (no cats or dogs) in a calm home where she can build confidence and routine. With patience and consistency, she has all the makings of an incredibly loyal, devoted companion. 3159 Susquehanna Trail N York PA 17406 Kennel #:3537

Story
Hi, I’m Oreo McFlurry! I’m a sweet, affectionate guy whose favorite place is right next to you—if you’re on the couch, I’m there for cuddles and kisses. I can be a little shy at first, but give me a moment and I’ll be wagging my tail and soaking up your love. I enjoy getting outside to run, sniff, and explore (snow included!), and I have a nice medium energy level—happy to be active, but just as content relaxing by your side. I’m very people-oriented and bond closely with my humans, which means I do best with structure and clear routines. I’m still working on house training and can have occasional accidents, though I do well when crated and settle nicely with a stuffed Kong or treat. I’m strong on leash and would benefit from continued training and an adopter ready to help me build those skills. I’d thrive as the only dog in the home, with a yard to enjoy and people who can give me the time and guidance I need. I have so much love to give—and I can’t wait to share it with my forever family. 3159 Susquehanna Trail N York PA 17406 Kennel #: 3537
