Story
Hannah (4/8/25) was picked up by local Animal Control as a stray..: when no one reported her as missing, she was turned over to Pet Search foster care. She is an American Staffie mix. This mid size sweetheart who weighs around 50 pounds is an affectionate girl who loves to run in the yard, chase balls, and snuggle when she is ready to settle down with her foster mom. Hannah is good with other dogs as long as they accept her high energy and playfulness. She will chase cats when they run from her, but does not hurt them. This happy girl just wants to please and is very responsive to a gentle hand and a soft voice. She is eager to learn and has shown in her foster home that she is smart and easy to train. Hannah is crate trained and housebroken; vaccinated, spayed, 4DX tested and microchipped. She will do well in a family with children. Someone tossed this gem of a girl away and it was their loss; she can be your new gem!

Story
Neika is a 2 year-old sweetheart who was surrendered to Pet Search. She weighs approximately 50 pounds. She is house broken, and can ring a bell when she wants to go outside. She is very energetic, loves to play and snuggle and walks well on a leash with a gentle lead collar. After being adopted, she came back to us--she became the alpha/protector at her new home, which resulted in being aggressive with smaller dogs. She needs an alpha owner willing to work with her on impulse and leash control. (Pet Search can recommend a trainer who has been working with her.) We recommend a fenced yard, lots of play time, and a home with no young children because of her energy level. Neika is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Applications can be made through https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/PAPS/Dog or Petsearchpa.org KL#03301 Washington PA 15301

Story
Pierogi (8/19/25) is as traditional terrier mix as his namesake in Pittsburgh… this handsome white and brindle boy was picked ip by Animal Control Services in Washington, but never claimed by an owner. Pet Search agreed, once his stray hold was completed, to bring him into our foster home program. Pierogi loves doing zoomies in the yard, but is equally happy spending quiet times getting loves from his foster mom. He is crate trained, housebroken, and is non destructive regarding his toys and other items in the hone. Pierogi has been 4 DX tested and is Lymes positive, and is presently on his 30 day treatment. He has bern vaccinated for Rabies, DHLPP and Bordetella and is microchipped. He is scheduled for neutering. Everyone smiles when they see Pierogi and hears his name when we walk… meet this little boy and we guarantee you will also smile when you are greeted with his exuberant kisses and puppy spirit.

Story
Meet Petey Petey is described as "such a great dog" and "he deserves more than we can give him." His owner found him as a stray and couldn't turn him away. Now having just moved into a new home with three kids under the age of 8, in addition to a full-time job and college courses, Petey has been relegated to very long hours of crating. In addition, he is deaf and is being teased and taunted by neighbor kids, making his life miserable. His owner has admitted that "it’s breaking my heart to give him away but I know it’s best for him to have someone that can actually be there. It’s not fair for him to be in a crate all day long." Although he seems to be companiable with some dogs, Petey may be too much for small dogs.

Story
Hi there… my name is Lollie, which is short for Lollypop because I am so very sweet❤️ I was found in Monongahela PA running the streets and the nice people at Animal Control picked me up so I wouldn’t get hit by cars. They took me back to Washington and waited for my hoomans to come and get me, but no one called and no one came to look for me. That made me very sad😔 Now I am with a wonderful rescue called Pet Search and my foster mom is giving me lots of love and a big yard to explore while she gets to know me. This is what my foster mom says about me… I do not appear to be dog or cat reactive I am housebroken and crate trained I seem to like both men and women I am not afraid of people reaching out to pet me or hug me They guesstimate that I am around 2 years old I have been vaccinated, microchipped, and I tested positive for Lyme ( which I have already started the 30 day treatment) and scheduled to be spayed. My foster mom gave me pills for fleas and parasites. I know my family probably let me go for a good reason, but it still hurts not to know why they never came looking for me. The great volunteers at Pet Search and my foster mom and dad give me lots of love and will make sure that I am not abandoned again. You can complete an application to schedule a meet and greet with me… https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/PAPS/Dog ❤️ Love, Lollie🐾 Pet Search KL#3301 Washington PA 15301
