Shamrock - Adopt A Homeless Animal

Shamrock

Shamrock is a playful, smart, 16 month old dog. He’s a quick learner and already knows sit, down, stay, come, off, wait, kiss and go pee. He has not exhibited any destructive behaviors, has a soft mouth when taking treats and loves to hand out with his people. He has shown friendly behavior and interest in other dogs, although he can become frustrated and reactive with barriers between him and another dog. He loves his squeaky ball, tug-of-war, swimming and going for walks.


 Shamrock is sponsored by AAHA, Adopt A Homeless Animal and his adoption fee is $250.

Shamrock is starting to understand that he’s not the only dog that’s around. Shams seeing them enough, he’s not responding as he would with space of course. He’s doing okay around Hailey – she’s the most tolerable of the bunch. He loves to run with Booker – it’s like watching two lions run in the wild. He’s also a baby; all he wants to do is be near you during down time whether it’s his body pressing on you, his face on yours, or he’s literally lying on you (half body). He is definitely getting better with his manners. He just LOVES being around people!

I’ve had block head now for a week and I have to say it’s really been fun! I learned quickly that he is on your time – whether you chill or you want to play, he doesn’t mind either. I also learned that Shamrock LOVES to lay beside you, his face pressed on yours. Shams/Rock is mouthy, but it’s very playful – he just LOVES that connection with you and him. His favorite thing to do is tugging with the rope tennis balls and flipping in the air stuffed animals. Shamrock is a joy to hang around. He and Booker love the fence and Hailey seems to like him.

 

Shamrock listens and he is picking up on his basic commands, though at times he gets hard headed LOL.

Shamrock...Shammy Whammy...Rock...Rocky...he's already got so many nicknames because the handlers all love him so much!  He joined the HOPE Program today so that we can continue to build on the skills his foster family taught him, like keeping all four paws on the floor, not being quite so mouthy, and some general obedience skills to show off how well-behaved this guy can truly be.  Please follow his journey with the HOPE Program!

Jaida

June 22, 2023
Jaida (formerly Potter) joined the HOPE Program on Friday 2/24/2023. She is approximately 7 years old and is sponsored by the Central Pennsylvania Animal Alliance, CPAA. Jaida is joining the Program after she and her family worked REALLY hard to help her adjust to a new baby in the house. Unfortunately, she prefers the companionship of older kids (10 years and over) to that of an infant or toddler. Jaida has a HIGH PREY DRIVE and will give chase to small critters, so she shouldn’t live with cats, birds, guinea pigs, etc. The smaller and squeakier, the more interested Jaida gets! She and her family put in a lot of time and work, so she’s already a very well behaved girl. She loves going for walks and hikes, but prefers not to be bombarded by off leash dogs. After all, she’s a well mannered gal and expects her friends to be the same! Jaida is also muzzle trained for trips to the vet and groomers too! If you're interested in adopting Jaida, please review her future home requirements, and if you think your home would suit her needs, click that "Apply to Adopt Jaida" button below! -Jaida NEEDS to be an ONLY PET , as she has a HIGH PREY DRIVE and does like dogs in her face -Jaida will NOT be adopted into a home with kids under the age of 10 -Jaida loves going for walks, so while a fenced yard is great, she'd like a family to take her on hikes and adventures -Jaida would also prefer a calm and quiet home , not one with a lot of guests or busy activities. Jaida is sponsored by the Central Pennsylvania Animal Alliance and her adoption fee is $300.

Hazel

Meet Hazel! Hazel is approximately 2 year old, and is thought to be a German Shepherd mix girl. Her coat is a gorgeous caramel brindle and so very soft. Miss Hazel joined HOPE on 11/04/2022 and we are looking forward to learning more about her as she progresses with her training. Hazel spent about a year with Canine Rescue of Central PA. She did not spark a lot of interest from potential adopters, but the volunteers at the rescue just love her! She is an active girl who loves going for walks, playing with toys, especially her purple egg, which as you can see she likes taking everywhere, and pretty much any activity that involves being outside! If you’re an active family looking for a furry family member, Hazel might be your girl! If you're interested in adopting Hazel, please review her future home requirements, and if you think your home would suit her needs, click that "Apply to Adopt Hazel" button below! -Hazel NEEDS to be an only pet, and therefore will NOT be adopted into a home with another dog, cat, or other small animals. -Hazel is a HIGH ENERGY dog, and plays VERY HARD. This is something we’ve worked on during her time in HOPE, and while her possessive behavior with toys has improved, we would not be comfortable adopting Hazel into a home with young kids. -Hazel would love if her family got her enrolled in some sort of dog sport, like agility. She needs an active family that will provide her with daily exercise, beyond a walk around the block. This girl would LOVE hiking and climbing rough terrain with you! Hazel is sponsored by Central Pennsylvania Animal Alliance, CPAA, and her adoption fee is $300.
