Story
Bureau of Dog Law Enforcement—Kennel License #2617**Due to Sarah needing spayed, her adoption will not be finalized until on or after: TBDCould she do well with kids? Yes, with children around 12 years, on a kid-by-kid basis.Could she do well with other dogs? Sarah can be selective with other dogs. Multiple meets might be necessary.Has this dog lived with cats? Yes. [The Lycoming County SPCA does not “cat test” dogs per the Association of Shelter Veterinarian’s Guidelines for Standards of Care in Animal Shelters.]---Condensed Staff Assessment Notes: Sarah is part of a group of animals that came into our care due to an animal hoarding situation. These dogs lived in a large pack, free to roam the home, but they didn’t receive much individual attention or socialization with new sights and sounds. Many of them have never worn collars, are unfamiliar with leashes, and being outside is frightening. While you can catch glimpses of their unique personalities, most of these dogs are not accustomed to functioning independently and can easily become overwhelmed. They are very loving animals but lack the confidence to seek out interactions. At this time, all members of the group should be considered flight risks.---For more resources to help with any step of your adoption journey go to: https://go.petadoptiongateway.com/LycomingDT

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Bailey is a beautiful, 1 year old, 12 pound Shih Tzu looking for her happily ever after! She is very outgoing, and loves to snuggle, play with toys, and be silly. She lived her life in a tiny closet before coming to us so she is learning how to be a dog. She will potty on pee pads and outside, but is always wanting her human along for support. She is all finished with her vetting, and in perfect health despite her rough start. Bailey rides well in a car, is crate trained, great with other young dogs, and will be a wonderful addition to a lucky family! To adopt Bailey, please complete an adoption application at peacelovepoms.rescuegroups.org. The $350 adoption donation ($250 for senior citizens 65+) includes core vaccines (Rabies, Parvo/Distemper, and Bordatella), Accuplex (Heart worm and Lyme test), fecal, microchip, bloodwork, spay, and all the love you can handle! NOTE - Bailey will not be adopted with her littermate, Brookland.  PA Kennel License 17652 Lebanon, PAVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 15, 2025, 4:06 pm

During this time your vet reference will be checked and a volunteer with determine if it is the best match for you and the animal. Applications are not approved on a first come, first serve basis. We match up the best home for the animal, so even if the pet has other applications, this does not mean he/she will be adopted to that home. Once your application has been approved a volunteer with contact you to set up a phone interview. This is the perfect time for you to ask any questions you have about the adoption process and the animal you are interested in.
