Story
This friend has just arrived because their owner could no longer keep them. While owners can provide some history on their pets, our medical and behavioral teams will still evaluate them. Dogs that have lived in homes previously typically have some training established, but we cannot guarantee that those behaviors will remain consistent in a new home environment. They are pending interactions with other animals at the shelter until they have been cleared by our vet. Our staff will spend some time getting to know them and we will update their bio with more information as we learn. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Story
ABOUT MINNIE Need a goofy companion? Meet the magnificent Minnie! She is a 4-year-old shepherd/lab mix that loves to play. Minnie came to HAP from a high-intake shelter in Louisiana when they no longer had space for her. During her first few days, she was her sweet, loving self but quickly became overwhelmed by the shelter environment, often pacing in her kennel. We reached out to our volunteers to see if someone would be willing to give her a break from shelter stress. Minnie has since been very active in our Doggy Day Out program, which gives her the opportunity to decompress and explore the world outside of the shelter. Minnie has even enjoyed a sleepover in an employee's home. Not only did she appear house-trained, with no accidents in the home, but also slept soundly in her crate overnight! She quickly showed off her goofy, playful side. Whether it's a game of tug with you or entertaining herself, she is always up for some fun! Minnie loves to chew on hard bones and rubber balls. She is a fast learner and knows basic commands. Since she is food and toy motivated, the possibilities are endless with her! Here's what a few of our Doggy Day Out volunteers had to say about her: "I had such a great day with Minnie! She’s such a happy, fun and intelligent dog! Minnie had so much fun walking around Rittenhouse Park with me and my mom. She really loves sniffing and exploring. Minnie walks great on the leash and is very smart. When I opened the front door of the car, she hopped in the front and got straight to the backseat, knowing where she’s supposed to sit. Minnie was very well behaved in the house. She sits and gives paw for treats, which she takes very gently. Minnie absolutely had a great time in the house. She played with sooo many toys, and enjoyed playing fetch. Though Minnie has a ton of energy, she also enjoys sitting for belly rubs and giving kisses. Minnie really is a special dog!" - Zoe "Took our girl Minnie out today and she was the ultimate cuddle buddy. We camped out under a tree, watched some senior softball, and I even got some work done. She was a total rockstar with all the people walking by. I love hanging with her." - Taylor *Minnie is seeking a home as your only pet! She can be selective with dogs and has made some doggy friends, but in a home environment, she would prefer to be your one and only!

Story
Houston, We’ve Got a Heart-Stealer Meet Astro, a 6-month-old lab mix weighing in at about 40 pounds of pure puppy joy. This guy is super fun, extra goofy, and comes with premium floppable ears that fly in the wind when he runs (honestly, it’s better than cable). Astro is great with everyone he meets and does well with other dogs, so he’s basically the social coordinator of the dog world. He’s still a puppy, which means you’ll get all the fun, silly moments that come with a young pup—plus plenty of chances to laugh at his antics. If your home could use more zoomies, more smiles, and more tail wags, Astro is ready to blast off into your life. February 6, 2026, 9:02 am

Story
Meet Dagon Dagon is a gentle senior Black Lab who arrived at the shelter through no fault of his own when his beloved owner lost their home. After spending years as a loyal best friend, Dagon is now hoping for a second chance at the comfort of a forever family. True to his Lab nature, Daogn is loving, calm, and eager to please. He enjoys leisurely walks, soft beds, and anything that involves being close to his people. His biggest joy is quiet companionship — sitting nearby, soaking up kind words and gentle pets. Even after all he’s been through, his tail still wags easily and his heart remains wide open. Dagon would be happiest in a peaceful home where he can relax, be cherished, and enjoy his golden years surrounded by love. In return, he offers devotion, gratitude, and the unmatched sweetness only a senior dog can give. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will fill your home with warmth and quiet love,Dagon is ready to meet you. January 17, 2026, 11:10 am

Dorito Ears, Snoot for Boops &#226&#156&#168 Meet Kanga, a 3-year-old, 45-pound lab mix with a cute snoot made for booping and iconic Dorito-shaped ears that have the entire staff obsessed. Seriously—those ears deserve their own fan club. Kanga is great with other dogs and loves pretty much everyone she meets. She’s the kind of dog who walks into a room and immediately becomes everyone’s favorite coworker. Sweet, friendly, and ready to be your new best friend, Kanga would be thrilled to join you for walks, couch hangs, and being admired for how ridiculously adorable she is. February 6, 2026, 9:02 am
