Story
Hello there, name`s Gunner. I am the `young` senior with a spring in my step! I`m quite the smarty pants too, knowing a few tricks up my sleeve. Fetch? Sit? You name it, I`ve got it. Got my leash manners down pat too. Just need a home where I can be the star, no other pets please. I`ve got enough love and loyalty to make up for it. So, if you`re in need of a smart, energetic companion, look no further!

Story
This handsome guy has been patiently waiting for his family. Brutus is a very smart dog and already knows many commands. He is a larger breed and would do best with an active family. Brutus loves kids and plays well them. Brutus sometimes forgets his size and strength when walking on a leash and would benefit from some leash training.Brutus is not a fan of small animals (cats, rabbits, etc.) so he will need a home/environment without them. He is also a jumper so his future family will need to be mindful of that. If you are looking to add another fun member to your family please contact the shelter to make an appoint to see Brutus.

Story
Hello, I`m Eva, the independent, shy (only at first), and hilariously goofy gal. I do know commands though, and I`m a dream on a leash. It`s just that I prefer the spotlight to myself, so I`d rather be your only pet. If you`re after a dog with a sense of humor and a love for solo strolls, I`m your girl. Adopt me, and let`s share a laugh or two!

Story
PooBear is still looking!!! Looking beautiful! Looking Happy! Looking for Love! Are you the one? Meet Poo Bear!!! She is one Beautiful Japanese Akita. She just turned 2yrs old! Shes only had one home (family of 8) since she was adopted at 8wks but there were just too many children for her to handle. She is a very good girl, She Loves everyone... especially Men! She does get along with other dogs and she doesnt mind cats. She is housebroken, crate trained, walks well on a leash, UTD, extremely smart, food motivated, catches onto routines quickly, and loves attention. She loves being groomed and looking pretty...she seems to look up when she sees a new bandana or a pretty bow knowing its just for her. Poor Bear is approximately 50-55lbs and will definitely need to be spayed. Poo Bear is the prettiest Akita I have Ever Seen, and Ive seen many. Since she came from a home with so many children we want to see her in a calm home with respectful touch. Shes an Angel.

These pups are in Somerset, Pennsylvania too!

Story
Tyson is a 3-year-old, altered male Husky mix who came to us as a stray from Somerset County, and he has certainly made his mark here at the shelter. Tyson is absolutely full of energy. He loves to run, jump, and play—he’s definitely a “bouncing off the walls” kind of dog. Despite all that energy, Tyson is incredibly friendly. He loves people and soaks up every bit of attention and affection he can get. Just don’t forget to make time for plenty of play, because that’s when he truly shines. Due to his high energy level, we believe Tyson would do best in an active home with a family who can keep up with his lively lifestyle. With the right match, Tyson will make a fun, loving, and enthusiastic companion.
