Story
Meet Harold! This sweet fun loving pup came to us as a stray and is looking for a new home! He is young and full of energy and would benefit from some basic training. He is very sweet and enjoys attention once he is comfortable with you. He has shown some fear-based reactivity toward strangers, and would need any kids in the home to be 10 and older. He also could potentially live with another dog with a proper introduction here at the shelter. We are not sure if he has been around cats. If he feels like a good fit for your home please come down and meet him.---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
This 10 year old German Shepherd recently joined the Pet Pantry pack. His whole world has changed. His owner and best friend just passed away. Kobe and his dad did everything together. Car rides, grocery runs, playing in the yard, and settling down to watch Penn State football games. They had a very special bond. Kobe was surrendered to Pet Pantry by his owner's daughter who wanted to give him a happy and bright future with someone who will love him just as much as her dad did.     Kobe is currently thriving in a foster home and is on a weight loss journey to keep him as healthy as possible. He shares his foster home with several other dogs.    If you are interested in filling Kobe's senior years with love, please fill out an application and our adoption coordinator will be in touch!

Story
Meet cubbie! He’s a loving best friend who loves attention even when you don’t ask for it. He loves walks, playing fetch, and finding toys hidden around the house. We adopted cub from an old roommate who never cared for him and was not trained. We wanted to give him the best home and we did until we are now moving and I want him to find his forever home. It breaks my heart but I know there is someone out there for him who he can play with everyday. He loves to stay busy and always comes by you on the couch to drop the ball on your lap so he can run after it. He will follow you everywhere whether you want him to or not. He’s a personal shadow. You can’t help but live his goofy personality.

Story
I'm Kuma! I'm a big, sweet boy who came to the shelter at no fault of my own. The shelter staff said I was a little thin, so they've been feeding me lots of extra good food to help me feel and look my best! Now that I'm doing better, I'm ready to find a family to call my own. I love playing and soaking up affection from my people. If you're looking for a handsome, loving companion; look no further! 3159 Susquehanna Trail N York PA 17406 Kennel #3537

Story
Koda is a 8-year-old German Shepherd originally rescued in Yokosuka, Japan when he was just 1 yr old. He is from a family of police dogs, but did not undergo formal training due to abandonment. He has completed basic obedience and is a very loving boy. He is looking for a best friend who will be his companion for the rest of his life. We have had Koda for over 5 years now and never thought we would be in a position to have to rehome, but life threw a curveball at us and we know Koda deserves better than what we can give him now. Koda suffers from separation anxiety, but we are hoping the right person who can meet his needs will ease this transition for him. Koda may need formal behavioral training due to his reactivity from years of under-stimulation. It is imperative to us that he does not get rehomed again after this, so we are urging anyone interested to please reconsider if you have young children, a small breed dog, a geriatric animal, or cats (Koda does not know his size).

Story
Meet Hunter!  This handsome 2-year-old Belgian Malinois came to us from an open admission shelter after being surrendered for no fault of his own. Hunter is looking for an active, breed savvy home that understands the needs of a Malinois and will help set him up for success. He bonds quickly with his people and is very in tune with his handler. Hunter does well with other dogs. While he is tolerant of male dogs, he would prefer a female dog companion. He has no history with cats. Hunter loves playing, walking, and hiking, and he does well on leash around both people and other dogs. He is house trained and does well in a kennel as well as a crate. If you think you may be the right fit for Hunter and are interested in giving this handsome guy his forever home, please fill out an adoption application here:  https://petpantrylc.org/rescue/adoption-application/October 1, 2026, 10:52 am
