Story
Meet Butterball! He is an older gentleman who LOVES to play with his tennis balls. Butters is a typical Bulldog with a mellow personality. Although he is calm around other dogs, we prefer him to be an only dog due to his obsession with his toys. He can certainly co mingle with other K9 friends on walks or supervised visits with no toys. Butters is fostered with children and does well. ADOPTION PROCESS 1. Review our adoption contract and application. 2. Call your vet and references to inform them that a rescue representative will be calling. 3. Complete adoption application and submit following appropriate link below: Dog/Puppy: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HRMD/Dog Cat/kitten: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HRMD/Cat 4. You will be notified of outcome of your application within 1-3 days. 5. If approved, you will be introduced to the foster to schedule a meeting within 5 days. Guidelines for the meeting are: - Bring a leash and collar and be prepared to take the animal home directly from the meeting. - Meeting should be no longer than 1 hour. Our fosters are volunteers and we value and respect their time and personal commitments. - All members of the household (including other dogs) must be present. - Please be prepared to submit adoption fee via electronic payment at the meeting. - If all goes well, the dog will go home with you directly after the meeting. If you are not ready to adopt at the conclusion of the meeting, please understand that we may process other applications for the dog. Because we have a limited amount of foster homes, we cannot hold dogs past adoption. 6. Please review these resources prior to the meeting to be prepared with what to expect when bringing a new dog home: a. ttps://www.petfinder.com/dogs/bringing-a-dog-home/tips-for-first-30-days-dog/ b. https://www.dogstardaily.com/free-downloads 7.

Story
Waffles! Who doesn’t love waffles?   This super handsome, freckled legged boy is Waffles!!! He is 4 yr old, Bulldog mix, weighing around 80lbs. This sweet boy loves people and so far has done wonderful with other dogs in his home. He has mastered some obedience skills and walks well on leash. He is housebroken and crate trained. He has some mild allergies controlled by a daily dose of Claritin and a medicated bath every couple weeks. Waffles enjoys some good play time or a walk around the neighborhood and then will happily settle down with a bone or just rest by your side. Waffles would do best in a home with older kids and no small animals. Waffles is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines and prevention with an adoption fee of $375. If you think Waffles would make an awesome furever addition to your family please fill out our application: https://form.jotform.com/fairytailsrescuemd/dogpuppy-adoption-application Thanks!!April 23, 2024, 4:09 pm

Story
~Adoptable Bella~ Bella is a 3 year old girl who loves to play ball and spend time with her favorite people. She spent over a year in the shelter before we stepped up to rescue her. Because of the time spent in the shelter as well as her unknown past, she came into rescue as a 60-pound bouncy girl without any manners or training. Bella spent a month with a professional trainer and has been with her foster working hard on the skills learned. She can be excitable and greets new people with a loud, deep bark which can be intimidating to some. Bella has made so much progress while in rescue, but needs an adopter who is committed to continuing her training with leash walking and appropriately greeting new people. Bella does fine with other dogs when properly introduced slowly, but needs someone who will give her time to settle in and slowly acclimate to her new surroundings. Bella is looking for a patient, consistent adopter who will help her continue to build confidence and continue her training. She is very food motivated and will do almost anything for a treat. She has a lot of love to give and we are really hoping to find her a forever home soon! It may be easy for some to pass Bella by because she needs continued training and slower introductions, but if you give Bella a true, fair chance, you’ll find she would love nothing more than to be your best little buddy who is very eager to please. Please complete the application below if you are interested in getting approved to meet her! She is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped for an adoption fee of $325.  https://form.jotform.com/fairytailsrescuemd/dogpuppy-adoption-applicationApril 23, 2024, 4:09 pm

Story
Hi there, I'm Nolan! I'm a fun-loving pup on the hunt for my forever home. I'm eager to explore the world around me, play, and learn how to be a well-behaved canine citizen. I have lots (and I mean LOTS) of energy, and I'm still working on my training and can get a bit over-excited at times - that's why I'm looking for a family who is dedicated to helping me become the best version of myself. My foster mom says that I walk well on a leash and I love to learn so a good student is what I am!Ideally, I'd love to find a home with someone who has experience with dogs and where any children are 13 years or older. I'm also looking for a home where I can be the only dog, as I want to be the center of your world. While I'm not sure how I feel about cats, I promise I'm a sweet pup who just needs a little direction and patience. I am housebroken and crate trained. Once I've had my exercise for the day, I'm also an amazing cuddler and enjoy lounging on the couch.If you're looking for a loyal and loving companion, I could be the perfect match for you. So why not give me a chance and let's see if we can become the best of friends!---This dog is available BY APPOINTMENT only as he is living in foster care. ---The Pennsylvania SPCA - Lancaster Center848 S.

Story
Hey there! My name's Remy and I am looking for my furever home! I can be a little standoffish with new people but once I warm up to you, I am a big cuddle bug and enjoy my time with people. I have been around kids in my previous home but would prefer any kiddos in my home to be 10 and up! I get along with other dogs and may do well with cats after a proper introduction. I am housebroken and working on crate-training. My former family didn't have enough time for me so I need a little more help with my manners. I can be stubborn and pushy (true to my bullish breed) so I would prefer an experienced dog family to help me be the best boy I can be. If you're looking for your next sous chef to help taste all your food or your newest couch potato to binge your favorite shows, I'm your guy! Come down to meet me and lets get this furever thing cooking!---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
