Story
Meet Gunner – Ready for a Fresh Start and a Forever Home Gunner is a 4-year-old, 70-pound mixed breed with a gentle soul and a heart full of hope. This big guy hasn’t had it easy—he lived on the streets with his previous owners until they could no longer care for him. Despite his rough start, Gunner is ready to turn the page and begin a new chapter with someone who will give him the love and stability he deserves. He’s a strong, loyal companion who’s been through a lot but still believes in people. Gunner is looking for a home where he can finally rest easy, stretch out in a cozy spot, and know he’s safe. He's still discovering what it means to be a house dog, and he's eager to learn with someone patient by his side. January 3, 2026, 9:52 am

Story
Hi-ya humans! I'm Chester! I have a heart as big as my head, and I have a pretty good-sized noggin! I don't use it all for smarts though.. I have lots of happy thoughts about running in the grass, yummy snacks, and of course, snuggles with my favorite people! I have a glass half full kind of mentality and can't wait to bust out of puppy prison once and for all!   I'm a super social butterfly, and have been great at events, I love meeting new humans and going for adventures! I am open to meeting other friendly doggies, too! If you have a dog who needs a friend, I volunteer as tribute for the job. Mostly, though, I can't wait to find a forever friend who will bring me home and love me forever! If you like two years old, 50ish pound, happy snorty boys, make sure you come meet me! I don't think you'll be disappointed. I have the smooshiest face and will surely keep you smiling and laughing - don't we all need some more happiness in our lives?!   Have Room in Your Home? Welcoming in a pet saves your new pet's life and creates space for another pet to get a chance! Not sure if Chester would be the best fit for you? Send in a generic app! Our team will work with you to find a pet to best fit your lifestyle! You will go home with a starter bag of food, one month of flea and heartworm prevention, and also have 90 DAYS of training help included with your adoption, if needed!

Story
DAISY MAE came to us after she bit her owner in the face. It was a one-time incident however the family was afraid of her after the incident. We were her last hope as an alternative to euthanasia. In our care, Daisy has befriended a couple of our volunteers and is sweet as pie. However, we don’t trust her completely, even with people she knows because she can’t control herself when she gets overstimulated. The original incident happened when they had moved into a new home and Daisy was over excited/stressed and a delivery man came to the door. Her mom attempted to put her into a crate and she resisted and jumped up alligator-style. We are committed to help Daisy even though we understand she may never find a forever home. For the present time being, we are her family and are continuing to try to help her make progress. We will accept applications from exceptional families who have dealt with similar dogs in the past successfully. Daisy needs to be an only pet and although she was fine with the children in her home, because of the bite she needs to be in an adult only home! If you would like to love Daisy from afar, please visit out website and use the PayPal link to support us in her care. www.CompAnimals.org. Thank you!November 3, 2024, 10:40 am

Story
McNugget is diminutive 4 year old American Bully who was used for breeding. He is a laid-back guy who probably spent most of his time in a kennel. McNugget is new to the rescue, so we are still getting to know him. He has a little OCD playing with his food bowls, probably because they were the only toys that he had. He pretty much ignores the other dogs in his foster home – still trying to find his place. McNugget weighs just 32 pounds and should be a healthy weight at 35 to 37.  He walks well on a leash and rides quietly in the car. Because of his OCD quirks and not growing up in a home, we would prefer he not be in a home with small children or a home that is busy with kids activities right now, so that they can concentrate on Nugget and gently assimilating him into a normal lifestyle and showing him what a dog's life was meant to be! McNugget is scheduled to be neutered at the end of September, and will be officially available at the beginning of October. Accepting applications now at www.companimals.org. McNugget will have pre-surgical bloodwork run before his neuter, receive his core vaccines, heartworm and tick borne disease, test, as well as microchip. Adoption $350. November 3, 2024, 10:40 am

Story
*ADOPTION FEE SPONSORED BY CAITLIN & FRIENDS* Meet RockyDude — a 4-year-old, 80-pound bundle of charm who’s been waiting far too long to find his forever family. RockyDude came to Faithful Friends Animal Society in August 2024 after an incredible team of rescuers worked together to bring him to safety. Our friends at ACCT Philly were overwhelmed with dogs, but they knew RockyDude was special and fought to give him a second chance. He was even held past his “timestamp” until he could safely make the trip to Delaware — just as the state lifted the ban on out-of-state transports. Talk about perfect timing! Since arriving, RockyDude has been a staff favorite. He’s smart, affectionate, and full of playful energy. He’s great with both dogs and cats. He knows “sit” and “down,” and he’ll happily trade his toys for treats. He’s obsessed with tennis balls and squeaky toys — they’re his absolute favorites! While he’s grateful to be safe, RockyDude’s biggest wish is to finally go home. He’s been waiting since August '24, hoping the family who’s meant for him will walk through our doors and make his happily ever after come true. Could that be you? Come meet RockyDude and see why everyone who meets him falls in love.  October 14, 2025, 11:17 am
