Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Beanie is a 2 year old neutered male shih-tzu he was born on 07/15/2023 he is house trained, likes to stay to himself, he loves to cuddle but the majority of the time will just do his own thing and be just as content. He will take any attention he can find he always has food and water down at all times to eat and drink as he wants too. He is one of the best dogs I have ever had, he is what I would consider a very low maintenance animal, he doesn’t stay on top of you begging for attention all the time but loves to have company would make a great pet for an older person! I have a new job now that keeps me entirely too occupied to give him more of the life that he truly needs and deserves. So I am looking for the right person who is looking for a calm, loving yet relatively low maintenance companion to bring into their life.

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Current Location: Hanover, PA Meet Squash: A Tiny Sweetheart Who Needs Your Patient Love At just 12 pounds and 7 months old, this little Shih Tzu mix is still very much a puppy navigating a big, sometimes overwhelming world. Squash is sweet, gentle, and curious, with a heart full of love for the people he trusts. Once he's comfortable with you, he loves to be held, stay near his person, and show you just how affectionate he can be. Squash has the energy you'd expect from a young puppy. He's extremely energetic and requires frequent activity, mental stimulation, and structured outlets to keep him happy and balanced. He loves to chew on his toys and toy bones, and a fenced yard would be wonderful for letting him run and burn off that puppy energy, though it's not a requirement. Here's what makes Squash special and what he needs: he's a little shy and nervous until he feels comfortable. New sounds, people, and experiences can feel scary to this tiny guy, and he needs a patient family who will support him as he learns that the world isn't meant to be frightening. He's working on meeting new people and can be wary at first, but he's always friendly. He just needs time and gentle encouragement. Squash is great at meeting new dogs and is very responsive to praise and food motivation with those he's comfortable with. Because of his nervousness and the fact that he's still learning about the world, a home without younger kids may be best. We're not sure how he'd react to children sharing his toys or moving unpredictably around him. This sweet boy needs someone who understands that beneath his concerns is a gentle soul who just wants to feel safe and loved. With patience, consistency, and compassion, Squash will blossom into the confident, affectionate companion he's meant to be. If you have the time and heart to help this tiny treasure find his courage, Squash is ready to trust you with his whole heart.

Current Location: Spring Grove, PA Hello! My name is Earl! I am a total love bug. I wiggle and waggle whenever I know you are near. When I hear a friendly voice I get very excited and happy. Let me sniff your hand and I will give you lots of kisses and be your little buddy. But what you do need to understand is that I have little to no ability to see.

I like other dogs and crate well and for the most part I do my his business outside. I’m looking for my forever family! Is that with you?

Story
Sweetie is exactly that! A real sweetie! She's a 2-year-old mix of Lhasa Apso and Rat Terrier weighing only 16 pounds. It's because she's so small that we prefer she go to a home without children under the age of 10...children who don't always know their own strength. Sweetie is a very loving girl who is playful and gets along well with other dogs. She is crate trained and house trained. A delightful girl!!! (posted 1/19/26, ME) Adoption Fee: $395.00-- covers microchip, worming, all vaccines, monthly heart worm preventative, monthly tick/flea preventative, spaying/neutering, health certificate, and complete medical records. Transport Fee: $160.00-- We consider the transport to be of great importance and, as such, take particular care of the dogs during the trip. We make every effort to arrive with healthy and minimally stressed dogs. **It is rare that we know with certainty the ages or mixes that make up our dogs, but we do our best to be as accurate as possible based upon our experience. **January 19, 2026, 2:51 pm
