Story
💗 Loving Senior Dog Looking for a Peaceful Forever Home 💗While I was out looking at homes with a realtor, I came across a dog who had clearly been abandoned by her owners. She was alone on the street, with no one there to care for her. She was healthy at the time and desperately needed someone to give her a safe place to go.I couldn’t just leave her there, so I took her in and gave her the love and care she deserved.She is now an older girl and, although she has been diagnosed with breast cancer, she is still in good spirits and has so much love to give. She is enjoying her days and deserves to spend her remaining years somewhere safe, peaceful, and full of love.I’m hoping to find a special person or family who will open their heart and give this sweet girl the loving home she deserves for the time she has left.

Story
 LINKEDIN PROFILE: ANSLEY Currently Open to Work | Seeking Full-Time Best Friend Position Apparently, Ansley has been on the job market for a few weeks now and STILL hasn't received an offer. We honestly don't understand it. She's adorable. She's smart. She's got excellent references. She's highly motivated. And she comes equipped with Dobby-level ears.  So we're putting her on LinkedIn because clearly the traditional job search isn't working.  ANSLEY Junior Professional Good Girl | Professional Snuggler | Bug Catching Specialist  11 weeks old |  11 lbs |  Lab Mix  Fostered in York, PA |  Open to Work  PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY Enthusiastic young Lab mix seeking a long-term position with a loving forever family. Ansley is eager to learn, and highly motivated by snacks, toys, and the opportunity to be wherever her people are. She firmly believes the couch is an entirely appropriate place for conducting important business meetings (aka: puppy snuggles).  CORE COMPETENCIES  Basic Obedience: Sit, Down & Shake  Bug Catching: Advanced certification  Couch Snuggling: Expert level  Crate Training: Successfully completed  Potty Training: Currently in progress, with excellent performance reviews  Adorableness: Excessively qualified  SPECIALIZED SKILL: ICE ACQUISITION Ansley has developed an impressive relationship with the freezer. The moment she hears the ice button beep, she comes running, takes her place, and patiently waits for her complimentary ice cube snack. This demonstrates excellent listening skills, punctuality, and a strong understanding of employee benefits.  REFERENCES Ansley is the kind of puppy who is ready to learn, eager to please, and absolutely convinced that everyone she meets is her new best friend. After a hard day of puppy shenanigans, she's ready to clock out and snooze on the couch with her family. She promises to bring all of her strengths and love to her new position. Now she just needs someone to give her a chance. Interested employers may submit their applications below.  www.pack9rescue.org/applications Ansley is an equal-opportunity snuggler.

Story
3 MONTHS IN A SHELTER. HALF HER PUPPYHOOD GONE. WHEN WILL IT FINALLY BE BINDI SUE’S TURN TO BE CHOSEN?!  Meet Bindi Sue. The girl with the unforgettable eyes, the shiny black coat, and a heart full of love just waiting for someone to give her a chance.  At just 7 months old, this beautiful Lab mix has already spent at least THREE MONTHS growing up in a shelter. While other puppies were learning what it meant to have a family, a cozy bed, and a place to call home, Bindi Sue was waiting. Waiting for someone to notice her. Waiting for someone to choose her. Waiting for her life to finally begin.  Thankfully, she’s now safe in a foster home! But being safe is only the first step. Bindi Sue deserves so much more than a temporary place to land. She deserves a FAMILY. A person who will be proud to call her theirs. A home where she never has to wonder why nobody wanted her. And guess what?! The more time her foster family spends with her, the more incredible she proves to be!   BEAUTIFUL? ABSOLUTELY. SWEET? BEYOND WORDS. SMART? OH MY GOODNESS, YES! At approximately 30 pounds, Bindi Sue has a tall, lean frame, a gorgeous shiny black coat, and two absolutely captivating eyes — one bright blue and one brown! She’s a total head-turner, but her personality and intelligence are what make her truly special.  JUST LOOK AT WHAT THIS GIRL HAS ALREADY ACCOMPLISHED!   SUPER SMART! In just a FEW DAYS, Bindi Sue has learned “sit” and “down” and is doing AMAZING with “place”! She’s also making fantastic progress with loose-leash walking and waiting patiently at doorways. This girl is a QUICK learner, and she’s just getting started! Imagine what she could accomplish with a family willing to keep teaching her.   DOG-FRIENDLY! She loves having canine friends and is learning to respect their boundaries when they aren’t in the mood to play.  A PEOPLE-LOVING SWEETHEART! Bindi Sue has an easygoing, happy personality and seems to have not a mean bone in her body.  GREAT IN THE CAR! Road trips and adventures with her future family are calling!  MAKING PROGRESS WITH HOUSE TRAINING! And doing AMAZING on a consistent schedule!  WORKING ON CRATE TRAINING! She’s learning that she’s safe now and that her people will come back for her.  READY FOR HER NEXT CHAPTER! She’s up to date on vaccines and preventatives and is heartworm negative.  A home without cats is recommended for Bindi Sue. Bindi Sue hasn’t been fostered with children, but given her sweet, easygoing nature, we’re expect her to do well. Of course, she’s still a puppy. She’ll need a family ready to continue her training, provide consistency, and help her grow into the amazing adult dog she’s meant to be. But seriously… look at how much she’s learned in just a few days! This girl has SO much potential, and with the right person in her corner, there’s no telling how far she’ll go.  She deserves a lifetime of adventures. A soft bed that’s truly hers. A family who laughs at her silly puppy antics and celebrates every new thing she learns. Someone who looks into those mismatched eyes and thinks, How did I ever get so lucky?” She’s smart. She’s loving. She’s eager to learn. She’s ready. Now she just needs someone to say YES.  Fostered in York, PA Apply to adopt: www.pack9rescue.org/applications Can’t adopt? PLEASE SHARE!

Story
Meet Raider the Invader!  Flown in just for you! He’ll invade your home, take over your kitchen, get right into your personal space… and then steal your heart!  Raider spent months waiting in a small rural shelter in South Carolina without anyone choosing him. Now he’s made the trip to Pennsylvania in search of the forever family he deserves. Raider is a handsome 3-year-old Black Lab mix weighing approximately 55 pounds. He’s recently neutered, up to date on vaccines and preventatives, and is working hard on becoming the perfect house guest. He’s mostly house and crate trained and continues to improve every day. Raider is wonderful with children (he currently lives with a 3-year-old boy), adults, and other dogs. While he isn’t currently living with cats, he was reported to be non-reactive when introduced to cats while in South Carolina. One of Raider’s favorite things is romping around the yard with his foster brother, Puck. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate, and loyal companion, Raider might just be your perfect match.

Story
NAME: Sadie BREED: Golden Retriever Mix BIRTHDAY: 2017 WEIGHT: 40lbs ADOPTION FEE: $300   In a small town in Kosovo, a blind dog laid in the dirt. For one week she stayed, too afraid to move, in unimaginable pain from two damaged eyes. When help finally came, she was given a name and taken to a vet clinic, and Sadie's real life began. ​ Upon arriving to us, Sadie was very nervous and shut down. She didn't want to eat or even go to the bathroom. However, she quickly learned to follow her foster sister outside, figured out that the cats rubbing on her were her friends, and began to trust that her foster mom would only feed and love her, not hurt her. She is very quiet, very house trained, and very sweet. Now that she's getting comfortable and feeling better post-eye removal, her goofy personality is starting to show! We can't run and play too much, since Sadie is also heartworm positive and currently undergoing treatment, but once she is out of the woods she's going to be such a fun dog to romp and play with! For now, we wrestle gently on the couch or in the yard, and she chases her tail when she gets a little bored. Overall Sadie is a very sweet, easy, and GOOD dog, and we are just happy we could help her! ​ ***Sadie has been through a lot, and is almost completely blind. She can react (and has reacted) fearfully to new situations, and may bite if she feels threatened or trapped. It's obvious that she doesn't want to hurt anyone, but this is the only way she knows to defend herself. Her new family will need to be patient and go slow while she adjusts to yet another transition. A fenced yard is ideal and will make acclimation easier for her. Sadie will need to have daily eye drops for as long as her remaining eye is visual, but it's likely that she will be completely blind eventually and at that point the eye can be removed. This service will be covered by our rescue, at our vet or a similarly-priced clinic.October 10, 2026, 12:14 am
