ADOPTED!!! :-)
Hey friends! We need YOUR help. This little pooch is Indy, and she is in desperate need of a home. Indy was surrendered in April because her family was moving and unable to take her with them. Her previous owners have reported that she has done well with other dogs and even cats in the past. They also stated that she is good with older children and is housebroken. Indy is a dog that has struggled in the shelter environment. She is shy & timid at first with new people, and the stress of the kennel is taking a toll on her. She was housed at our Conshohocken shelter for a couple of months with no success of finding a home before we transferred her to our Perkiomenville shelter. Unfortunately, the change of shelters and scenery still has not landed Indy a home.
Based on our experience here with Indy we do think that she could live with a male dog of comparable size & play style with slow, proper introductions. We feel that Indy would thrive in a quiet home with structure & security. Indy LOVES to work for treats and keep her mind busy. She is a smart girl that needs a home. Please consider stopping into our Perkiomenville shelter located @ 1059 Sweisford rd. Perkiomenville, Pa TODAY to meet Indy. If you cannot adopt, please share her post to help us find her a home!

We are calling this handsome little fella Shane! He arrived as a stray in rough shape, he was dirty with poor skin, and overall appeared to have not been cared for well. His health & his condition have been improving while in our care. Shane is ready to leave the past where it belongs and focus on the future. This boy can be a little shy at first, but he warms up quickly. He wants to please and enjoys the companionship of humans. Shane knows sit, down, and he is food motivated and willing to learn so training should be a breeze. He loves to play with toys and go for long walks. Shane has done well here with dog introductions, and we suspect that he could live with a female dog of equivalent size and play style with proper introductions. Shane has been vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped while in our care. Not only is he looking better, but he is feeling better too. The only thing he needs now is a family! Please consider stopping into our Perkiomenville Shelter located @ 1059 Sweisford Rd Perkiomenville TODAY to meet him. If you cannot adopt, please share his post to help us find him a great home.

The S.A.F.E. Method was developed to help families with their dogs that may have separation anxiety. Dogs with separation anxiety cannot be left at home alone. This protocol will help you to manage the day-to-day challenges of living with a dog that panics when left alone.

It is not a training program, but can set up your dog for some relaxation , and can provide you with some peace of mind. There is much more information I can share with you. Please contact me for more information on S.A.F.E.

Great story. Ted Kerasote's book Puka's Promise was written after he lost his best friend "Merle." If you love your dogs like family and want them to live as long as possible, give Puka's Promise a read.

Ted Kerasote is an outdoorsman and author who has written three charming and insightful books about the human-dog relationship – Merle’s Door (2007), Pukka, The Pup after Merle (2010), and Pukka’s Promise (2013). Pukka’s Promise relates the story of Kerasote’s search for a dog that...

UPDATE after 8 long monthsPiglet has finally been adopted.
Piglet (A313691) is out longest resident and has been waiting for his forever home since October 2023. He's estimated to be between 8 and 10 years old. Outside of his kennel he’s calm and easy to walk. He was also recently introduced to a large female dog, and he did very well! We think he’d do well with a dog his sizeor larger or as an only pet.

Will you please share Piglet’s post to help him find his forever home?

Before he’s adopted, we'll make sure he's neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated, so all he needs now is someone to give him a new forever home. If you're interested in giving Piglet a second chance, please submit an application for review. Online application: https://montgomerycountyspca.org/adoption-form/ -form
