SAMMIE IS IN HIS FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO PA ONCE HE IS ADOPTED!    "Hey there, I'm Sammie! I am a social butterfly who loves every dog I meet and really hope my future home has other pups to play with! In my foster home, my favorite times are snuggle time, playtime, and dinner time! I'm a pro at cleaning my plate. I am a bit curious about the resident kitty in my foster home, but I promise I've never been anything but polite! I'm well versed in 'sit' and adore a game of fetch. Give me a backyard, and I'll run myself into nap time. While I've got a sweet side, I've also been known to channel my inner American Ninja Warrior and take a hop over short fences. I need to be watched!   I've made many furry and human friends in my foster home, and they all seem to think I'm great! I'm working on mastering the leash and to not bark, but I am getting into the crate when asked! If you have a couch and endless love to give, I'm ready to be yours!"   He is estimated to be between 2-3 years old and 65 lbs.

Story
This is MACON! The handsomest 2 year old male who is a very striking breed of dog and dog. Seriously, we're not sure his breed but we know he'll be a larger pup and he's wonderful. Macon was found running down the middle of the highway in Macon County, was found by some kind souls who took him in. Macon loves other dogs and kids, but he has a bit too much energy for the good Samaritans that found him. He foster sister is a 13 year old Chi that Macon is very respectful to, but the Chi is a bit cantankerous and doesn't like to share. Macon knows his manners, caught on to the basics very quickly, he knows to sit, stay and other basic commands. He absolutely LOVES toys. His fosters say he could chase a tennis ball or frisbee forever (fetch level pro) but he does very well when let inside to cuddle on the couch too.

Story
Age: 11 months Size: 47 lbs Estimated breed: German shepherd mix Lives with: Dogs Perfect home: Kids aged 12+ older only. Fenced-in yard is best, as he has and will take off after squirrels and other wildlife!   Meet Hopper, a sweet, affectionate, beautiful boy! He was found in a commonly used dumping area for dogs in rural North Carolina. They were taken to the shelter but no one came forward for them. Another rescue was able to save his brother, leaving Hopper all alone in a noisy shelter kennel. We agreed to bring him into rescue and find the best forever home for him!    Hopper is around 11 months old and weighs 47 lbs. He has an absolutely remarkable temperament and calm demeanor for a puppy his age. Hopper has never met a stranger and he happily greets new people and dogs with perfect energy. He loves kids but he is a young energetic shepherd, so we recommend any children in the home be sturdy enough to not be knocked over! He tested well with cats while in the shelter too, but we have not seen him live with them, so he'd need very slow introductions inside the home. He enjoys playing and going for walks with his doggie foster siblings but his absolute favorite activity is rolling onto his back and begging for belly rubs! Hopper is what we call a unicorn - dogs like him don't come around often and are super rare in the rescue community. Don't miss your chance to adopt your own unicorn, apply to adopt Hopper!    To adopt Hopper, please apply on our website! https://www.nirvanaanimalrescue.org/adoption-application   Please note we cannot guarantee the age or breed of any of our dogs. All of our dogs are working on their crate and house training.    PA Kennel License #18366June 22, 2025, 11:54 am

Buddy came from a kill shelter, very frightened and reactive. He never bit anyone, but he can be reactive when he is frightened. He gets along great with other friendly large-breed dogs, his best friend is a female Shepherd. He has adjusted to being at the kennel and is now much more comfortable being handled, he loves going for long walks and loves going out to the field and playing ball. He loves toys, eating and riding in the car. He is well mannered but needs an experienced person because he can get excited and reactive. He is a handsome, athletic dog who will be a wonderful active companion for a person experienced with high-energy large dogs.

Story
Ace is a 4-5 year old German Shepherd (could be a mix) - handsome sable neutered male. He was rescued from a kill shelter. Ace is a great dog, very well mannered but takes some time to warm up to new people. Once he does, he is extremely loyal, obedient, and protective. He would be perfect for a single person who needs a home and travel companion. Ace loves to go on long walks, car rides, and ball playing. He gets along very well with female larger-breeds, but needs a home without young children, small dogs, cats or livestock. Ace is healthy but needs good quality food for his sensitive digestion.
