Ford

Male - Shih Tzu mix - 3-4 years old

Ford is a brown Shih Tzu mix with the most charming underbite. He is super friendly and loving. Ford came to us from a high kill shelter in Philly. He still needs to be groomed, but he is very handsome! He walks nicely on a leash too.

Sierra

Female - Pit mix

Sierra was found as a stray. Although not much is known about her history, we heard rumors that she was abandoned when her owners moved. Despite what she has been through, she is the absolute sweetest girl who loves belly rubs, snuggles, and attention. She has some skin issues that we are addressing. She walks nicely on a leash and will become your best friend in no time.

Parmesan

Male - Pit mix - 8 months old

He was surrendered to a high kill shelter in Philly because the family did not have time for him. He was surrendered with his sister Feta, his mom Cheddar, and his dad Gouda. Luckily Feta and Cheddar have found their forever homes and Parmesan is hoping to find his! Parmesan gives great kisses and loves to snuggle up for naps near his humans. He is very friendly and puppy-like. Since he is still a puppy, he would benefit from some training. He loves taking walks, exploring the outdoors, and playing in leaf piles. He also does great in the car. 

Eve

Female - Cane Corso - 7-10 years old

Meet our sweet Eve. Eve was part of a cruelty case. She was left in a yard several weeks ago. Eve was so weak she had to be carried into our building. She has tumors, wounds, ear infections, an infected eye and was severely dehydrated. We have been showering her with love and attention. Despite what she has been through, she is slowly starting to perk up and give tail wags. Her name Eve, which means life, is the perfect name for her. We are going to make sure she knows love for the rest of her life. We will be looking for a medical foster home for her until she has a clean bill of health. Can you open your heart and home up to this sweet girl? 

Gomez Addams

Male - Boxer mix

Gomez is a recent stray who was sadly never claimed. However, he is THE happiest boy with the best wiggle butt. He is a male boxer mix. He has not been cat tested yet. Gomez’s ideal home would have someone home more often than not since he loves people so much. 

Ryder

Male - Husky mix - 2 years old

Meet Ryder! This handsome husky is looking for a foster home with the intent to adopt! He is in need of an active owner who will be willing to properly exercise him. Unfortunately, he is not getting enough exercise at the shelter and he is going a little bonkers. He is a strong boy.

Riley

Female - Pit mix - 5 years old

Riley was abandoned on a busy road and sadly never claimed. She is still nervous at the shelter but she warms up quickly and loves belly rubs. Riley loves to snuggle on her big bed and get attention. She is enjoying her walks at the shelter but she is strong on the leash. We are looking for a home with no other pets. She really loves her people once she's given the time to get to know you and we have no doubt that she will make a fabulous addition and be someone's best friend.

Minnow

Male - Westie mix - 3 years old

Minnow was set for euthanasia at a local shelter due to unpredictable behaviors in the shelter environment. Our wonderful shelter manager decided to rescue him and let him decompress in a quiet room in our shelter. He has been improving every day. We are so impressed with the leaps and bounds he has made since the first day he arrived! The only issue we have noticed is with food. He has shown food aggression. We are looking for an experienced adopter who will be patient with him and who will feed him completely separately from other animals and humans. He would not do well in a home with children. He weighs around 20 lbs.

Zinnia

Female - Pit mix - 3 years old

Zinnia was abandoned at a local park. Her former family tossed the ball, and as she was chasing it, they drove off without her. She hasn’t given up hope on people, despite being dumped. Zinnia is looking for her forever family! She loves pets and attention! She is one of our best walkers, and she loves to be outside. She has quickly become a volunteer favorite! She loves other things a little too much at times like toys and bones. We are looking for a patient family to work on her “love of things”, otherwise known as resource guarding. We believe it can be worked on as it seemed to develop in the shelter’s stressful environment.

Mega

Male - Pit mix - 7 years old

This sweet, friendly and lovable boy was found as a super emaciated stray. Sadly, no one ever came to claim him. He was found with Fern! Luckily, our wonderful volunteers are making sure he gets plenty of food, treats, and cuddles. He’s been getting better everyday, and he’s ready to find his forever home! He's sweet, loves to cuddle and give hugs, and just wants to be near you. He walks well on a leash. His favorite toy to carry around is his Kong, but he loves it a little too much at times, so older children are preferred.

Diesel

Male - Pit and Pointer mix - 2-3 years old

He is an active boy so he will need more of an active home although he does know how to chill and relax on a couch too! He’s a smart pup who is eager to learn and he already knows some basic commands like sit and paw! He would make the perfect running partner! He does not like to be crated or confined for long hours, so he needs a home where someone is home more often than not. Diesel has gone on sleepovers and outings with volunteers and he's been an amazing houseguest. We have learned that he is housebroken and the most loyal dog. 

Lula

Female - Pit mix - 3-4 years old

Lula has been with us almost 3 years now and it's time for her to be in a home! She weighs around 55 lbs. She is shy but sweet and needs time to warm up to new people. Her ideal family is active and dog-savvy. We’d love to find a family to foster her while we work on her training. She is super smart and quick to learn.
