Story
Meet Tank!Tank is a young Great Dane with a heart just as big as his paws. He hasn’t had the easiest start in life (he came to us through our Animal Law Enforcement team in rough shape), but despite everything he’s been through, Tank’s spirit shines.This big guy is a fun, goofy puppy who loves to be silly and soak up attention. He`s currently living in a foster home where he is learning all of his manners and being the best boy. He loves playing with toys and often gets the zoomies, but is happy to cuddle in bed after.Tank is considered special needs and is looking for a truly special home. He has visual and hearing impairments, along with significant orthopedic disease affecting his legs. He will require ongoing, lifelong veterinary care and a family committed to helping him live his best, most comfortable life.He’s open to meeting savvy kids who understand how to safely interact with a large, bouncy dog, and he may do well with calm canine companions who respect his space and mobility needs.Tank may need a little more - but he gives a whole lot back. For the right person, he’ll be an incredibly loyal, loving friend and a daily reminder of resilience, joy, and unconditional love.Please email adoptions@pspca.org if you’d like to meet him!_______________The Pennsylvania SPCA350 E Erie Ave., Philadelphia, PA 19134Kennel #3079

Story
We got Jethro when he was 9 weeks old we all ready had a 5yr old Alaskan malamute they got along great until about a month ago and I guess Jethro got to his alpha stage and decided he did not like Opie our Alaskan malamute anymore so we've had to separate them they are both male dogs so we had Jethro neutered to see if that would help but it hasn't Jethro is great behavior wise around everything else except Opie so at this point we need to just rehome home he is such a great dog very affectionate with all humans

Story
PLEASE NOTE! WE ARE A TEXAS BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY IN TEXAS AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO YOUR STATE ONCE ADOPTED. Our app can be found at haydudeequine.org Hi there! I'm Gunner. I'm an 10-month-old pup weighing about 60 pounds, and I'm looking for a family who appreciates a dog with a big heart and an even bigger personality. I've been told I'm quite the conversationalist. Now, don't worry—I'm not a nonstop barker. I just like to share my thoughts. If you're talking, I'll probably have something to say about it. If dinner is running late, expect a few comments. If we're headed out on an adventure, you'll definitely hear my excitement. Some people call it sass; I call it excellent communication skills. When I'm not busy chatting, you'll probably find me in the water. I absolutely LOVE to swim, splash, and play. A pond, pool, creek, lake, sprinkler—if it's wet, I'm interested. Water is my happy place, and I'd love a family who enjoys outdoor adventures as much as I do. I'm a sweet, social guy who enjoys making new friends and being part of the action. At 60 pounds, I'm a sturdy pup, but I'm still young and excited to learn new things. Whether we're exploring the great outdoors, going for a walk, or relaxing at home, I'll be right by your side—offering companionship, loyalty, and the occasional opinion. If you're looking for a friendly, water-loving best friend who will keep you laughing and always be ready for the next adventure, I might be the perfect match. Hope to meet you soon! Love, Gunner
