Story
To know Jupiter is to be loved by her. This 4-year-old Akita mix has a soul full of devotion. She bonds deeply with her people and looks at you like you hung the moon. Due to a severe personal medical crisis, I can no longer give her the care she deserves. Jupiter is a “Queen Bee” who needs to be the only pet and in an adult-only home. She prefers not to share her space with other animals or small children. She has a tender heart and struggles with separation anxiety when crated or left alone too long. She needs a home where someone is around often (work-from-home or retired) and can provide plenty of opportunities to go outside for potty breaks. She thrives on routine and specific attention. If you are looking for a loyal, loving shadow to be the center of your world, Jupiter is waiting for you. She deserves a soft place to land where she can be the priority. Please contact me to meet this special girl.

Holly is the definition of a cuddle bug! All she ever wants to do is take a light stroll and cuddle on the couch. She can be a little timid of new people but once she knows you, she tends to jump right in your lap to snuggle up. Holly absolutely does not like cats but is okay with most other dogs. Holly was found as a stray, taken to our kennel in Texas and then transported up to our adoption center in Chester County, Pa. She is spayed, up to date on vaccines and current on Flea, tick and heartworm prevention. To apply please fill out the application linked below! https://form.jotform.com/222314529153147

Meet Duchess! Duchess is a 9-month-old Shiba Inu mix weighing about 35 pounds, and she’s every bit as lovely as her name suggests. This sweet, gentle girl truly shines when she’s with her people and absolutely loves spending time with other dogs. Duchess enjoys playtime with her canine friends and would be happy in a home with a playful pup to share her days with. When she’s not playing, she’s content just being near her humans, soaking up love and companionship. Still a young pup, Duchess is ready to continue learning and growing with a family who will guide her with patience and kindness. If you’re looking for a loving, gentle companion who adores both people and dogs, Duchess may be the perfect addition to your home. January 13, 2026, 10:50 am
