Bear is a large goofy exuberant puppy who requires lots of exercise and patience. He clearly is a stunning dog and therefore everyone wants to take him home. He will require a dog savvy person or someone committed to following through with training and providing lots of exercise. Bear is looking for a home with a fenced in yard not an underground fence but a physical one. Bear can be protective of his toys and food, but only with other dogs. Bear is not a “dog park”dog.Please message us for more details home visit and adoption donation required

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.

Story
Wolfie is a sociable, energetic boy who loves people and enjoys meeting other dogs, though he can be intimidating at first and may need a confident introduction before he settles in. He’s eager to play and he has a playful streak with water hoses that never fails to bring a smile. He weighs 89 pounds and is approximately 3-4 years old.??Wolfie is still learning the leash. He is learning to come when called and sits nicely when prompted. He is a homebody at heart, but he still needs plenty of exercise to burn off his occasional bursts of energy. He also enjoys walks with his humans.??Located in Houston, Texas. Transport to most states available for an additional fee of $300.

Twinkle lived at an Amish Farm in the house; however, the children let her outside and she killed the chickens. So very high prey drive. She loves children, playing in the yard and car rides. She is shy with new people at first but when she warms up to you, you will have companion for life. She knows basic commands and walks well on a leash. Twinkle is located at our Texas Ranch.

Story
Meet this handsome guy! This 6-year-old neutered male Akita is a big love with an even bigger heart. One of his favorite things? Giving hugs — he’s affectionate, loyal, and enjoys being close to his people. He walks well on a leash and carries himself with the calm confidence Akitas are known for. True to his breed, he is not your typical first-time dog owner dog and would do best with someone who understands (or is eager to learn about) the Akita personality and appreciates a strong, independent companion. If you’re looking for a devoted, dignified dog who bonds deeply and shows his love in the sweetest ways, this guy may be your perfect match.

Story
Meet Buddy:  Buddy is a friendly Husky/Pyrenees/Shepherd/Golden Retriever mix that is 1 year old (as of July 2025) and weighs around 79 lbs. Buddy was found as a stray in a subdivision going from house to house looking for someone to help him. Buddy is very friendly and loves people. We are working with him on jumping up and hugging you, walking on a leash and counter surfing. Buddy is very playful and loves to play with lots of toys or grab a rug/robe and run in the yard with it. He is crate trained and has not had one accident in the home. He gets along with other dogs and because he plays hard we would recommend no small dogs. Buddy definitely needs a fenced in yard and a family that is very active. Buddy is up to date on all his shots and neutered. If you are interested in adopting the sweet boy, please go to our website at charliescrusaders.org and fill out our adoption application. REQUIREMENTS: Fenced in yard and another dog in the home. CURRENT LOCATION: Foster Home in Pottstown, PA 19464 Kennel License #17584 ##2367372##

Story
Meet Silas! This sweet hearted pooch unfortunately came to us because his family could no longer keep him. While he is very nervous at first he is very sweet and affectionate once he warms up. He will need a home that is experienced with escapist as he tends to try to flee. We ask that any children in the home be 10+ due to his nervousness and some guarding behaviors. He may do well with another dog who is calm and confident to help him with his nervousness. He unfortunately has significant prey drive and can not go to a home with cats or small animals.Does he sound like a good fit for your home?! Then come down and meet this handsome dog.---If you are interested in adopting, please come prepared --bring a photo ID, proof of address, and everyone in the home including resident dogs with vaccination history. We are open daily 12-6pm.---The Pennsylvania SPCA - Lancaster Center848 S. Prince St. Lancaster PA 17603Kennel #16516717-917-6979lancaster@pspca.org
