Pet Preview
|
The following is a selection of
animals currently available for adoption. Many
of the pets in the Adoption Center were rescued from a
gassing shelter or
an abusive situation, hazardous
environment, were unplanned or were just
not wanted anymore. Every dog
and cat leaving Diane's Adoption
Center MUST be spayed or
neutered by 6 months of age. The only way to
reduce the number of animals being
put to sleep in shelters is to stop
unwanted pets from being born in
the first place. Call us at 610-970-7500 to
make sure the pet you seek is still
here. Our pets are very lovable and find
homes fast.

"Sam"- are 7 yr. old
neut. male Pomeranian/Pekingese mixes. They are brothers
who grew up together in
the same home. They are good with older children and
smaller dogs. They haven't been around cats. The previous
owner had to move and couldn't take them with her. They
can be adopted together or apart.
-
Missy-
Is a 5 yr. old soon to be spayed
female Beagle/Jack Russell Terrier mix
She is, paper trained, great with cats and small dogs,
friendly, knows to sit, stay, and give her paw. She came
in with Lacey and unfortunately their owner had to go into
assisted living and couldn't take them with her.
-
Nizmo-
is a Cattle Dog mix spayed female Her family had to move
so she was staying outside on a chain at someone's house
until we could take her. She was always an inside dog and
lived with two now heartbroken kids and two Siamese
cats.. She is about 1 year old. house trained, spayed,
crate trained, vaccinated and very well mannered in the
house. Just a love.
-
Gator
-is a 2 yr. old Maltese/Yorkie/Poodle
mix This little guy was rescued from a house of a known
animal abuser. The dogs were being bred for drug-money.
The animals were rescued when the owner was killed about 2
months ago in a drug fight. His widowed wife also abused
was being evicted from her home and had nowhere but the
shelter to go with her dogs. Gator would not be good with
small kids he will bite when he get frightened. The wife
said her recently deceased husband would torment him and
then smack him in the face when he would bite him.
He would do this over and over again until she would
distract him and then she would put him in her room
and hide him.
-
Bullet-is
approx. a 1 yr. old neut. male Basset Hound/Labrador mix
This is
Bullet's "foster mom". Diane and I rescued him from "death
row" at a high-kill shelter in North Carolina. Bullet
is a wonderful and very unique dog. He is quite large,
weighs about 50 lbs, but is skinny so may get to be 60+
lbs. Supposedly over a year old, he's full-grown but
still has a lot of puppy behavior. I doubt he was an
indoor dog before he came to us because of his lack of
training. He now walks nicely on a leash and will sit on
command, but I have never had him off leash outside
because I don't have a fenced-in yard. He is crated when
I'm not home and at night, and barks sometimes, but is
ok. I also don't know if he was house-trained before, but
has only had a few accidents. He is fine with my
other 2 dogs and really loves to play with my 6 yr. old
Coonhound. Though he likes my cats and is affectionate
with them, I would not trust him 100% alone with them
yet. I have not had him with small children and though he
would be friendly, because of his size he might be a
little overpowering.
-
King - is
approx. a 1 year old. American Bulldog. He is deaf and
will need someone who can understand and work with his
special needs. Unfortunately his owner can no longer keep
him due to illness in the family and his need for
companionship is not being met by the owners long
absences. He cannot be crated but is housebroken. Playful
and loving, he was in a home with small dogs and small
children. Contact the store at 610-970-7500 if you are
interested in potentially adopting King and are interested
in meeting him.
-
Mia- is a 2 yr. old
Beagle/Cattle Dog mix She was rescued from a high kill
shelter pregnant. She was in a loving foster home with
lots of kids, cats and other dogs. She is crate
trained/hsbkn. When she came to us she was very frightened
of people but now her foster mom said she will just curl
up and melt into your lap if give her some attention. The
kids love her and even though she loved her puppies she
never was nasty or protective around them towards people.
-
Lucy - is a 3-4 yr.
old Chihuahua. She was rescued from a elderly man who was
hoarding 36 dogs in his small home. His son took 5 of
the female dogs to a veterinarians office to ask for their
help in placing them and the veterinarian turned them over
to various rescues. Lilly and Lucy came
to our rescue upon arrival we realized that Lucy was very pregnant
so she went right into a foster home. She
is a wonderful little dog she is hsbkn. great with kids
dogs , cats kids. She just loves everyone! When she goes
to bed she will lift a towel and cover herself with up
with it. She gave birth by c-section to 7 pups on 1-22-12
