IN FOSTER - MEET SATURDAY 10-2PM

Mia Hamm

Female - Doodle mix - 4 years old

Mia was sadly found as an emaciated stray with sores on her body. Thankfully one of our volunteers took her home and she has been getting the extra TLC she needs. She came in to the shelter extremely underweight, neglected, scared and hiding in a corner. But when they brought her home she became a different dog almost immediately! Her foster mama says that she is funny, loving, and playful. She loves to sit in your lap (or on your neck or head) and she is progressing through potty training. Mia is in a home with 3 other dogs and she is very playful with them. She would love another playful pup or someone who is home more often than not. Her foster family says that she is the perfect mix of cuddles and playful.

Sparkles

Female - Catahoula mix - 2 years old

We received an emergency call from our urgent care vet in regards to a dog that was being euthanized due to a terrible leg injury. We aren't sure what exactly happened, but Sparkles had to have her leg amputated. Sparkles has defied all odds by losing her leg - she remains as sweet as can be! She has been adjusting so well and is ready to find her forever home. She weighs around 44 lbs. She has been great with everyone she meets.

Pretty Girl

Female - Yorkie mix - 11 years old

Pretty Girl is a great companion who needs a quiet home. She is very cuddly and affectionate! She walks well on a leash too. After a play time, she loves to nap by your side. Pretty Girl is on a strict diet and must remain on this diet due to her sensitive tummy.

Buford

Male - Rottweiler - 10 years old

Buford was kept outside his whole life and used as a stud dog for breeding. He came to us very shutdown and shy a few weeks ago. Luckily one of our volunteers is fostering him and he is slowly coming out of his shell! He loves to be wherever his foster mama is and he is doing great with potty training. Buford is fine with the female dog in the home. However, he would not do well with a male dog.

Hazel

Female - Lab mix - 2 years old

Hazel was surrendered to us. We are looking for a family with large breed or shepherd experience to work on building her confidence through positive reinforcement. We are looking for a family to foster with intent to adopt her. Hazel is a nervous dog that would greatly benefit from another dog in the home. However, once she knows and trusts you, she is super duper friendly, loyal, loving, and puppy-like. She was originally found as a stray in Philly last November. She seems okay with cats and would do best in a home with another playful and friendly dog and older children are preferred.

Sid

Male - Terrier mix - 11 years old

Sid was found abandoned at the Game Preserve. He is a little boy with a BIG attitude. Currently Sid is in a foster home and he is doing great with the small dogs and cats in the foster home. He loves to chill on the couch and lounge outside. Sometimes he just needs his personal space. He loves to give kisses and sit on laps but only on his own terms. Another one of Sid’s quirks is that he is ready for bed (and he wants everyone else to be ready for bed) by 7pm. He doesn’t like when his fosters laugh after 7pm, he doesn't like when they grab the remote after 7pm…he just wants to go to bed….are you in bed by 7pm?

We would love to find this old man a comfy home to live out the rest of his golden years. Older children only for Sid. If you want a dog who has the personality of a cat, Sid may be the boy for you!

Rosa

Female - Pit mix - 7 years old

Rosa is a recent arrival from a high kill shelter in Philly. She was just hours away from being euthanized. Luckily we were able to scoop her up! She is super friendly and lovable. She weighs around 50 lbs. She loves to play with squeaky balls and hang out in the yard with our volunteers. Despite her age, she still acts like a puppy by jumping around and tossing toys in the air. She is super silly and fun! Come see it for yourself! Rosa can be strong on a leash and doesn't like to walk by noisy cars/trucks. She enjoys going on long walks and playing in the yard with her favorite volunteers.
