Our Favorite Part.

Amazing People Making Second Chances Possible.


We have one goal for every dog that crosses our path: to find their forever home. These wonderful individuals stepped up and offered our angels the second chance we promised them. To the adopters and to our fosters who make this possible we say "Thank You!"

Freckles - Adopted 2/14/2026


Freckles and her siblings (our “Snow Dog” litter) were dropped off in the middle of the night. The family called us for help the next day and each entered their foster home to begin some much needed veterinary care and await their forever homes.

We are so thankful to her foster family for helping her learn how to live in a home, have structure and most of all be safe and loved while she waited for her forever.

We are also so grateful to her new family for choosing to add this angel to their home and hearts. Freckles has a wonderful mom and dad, a human brother, and a doggo sister to love and be loved by for all her days. We wish each of you the best this life can bring you.

Aleu - Adopted 2/13/2026


Aleu is a part of our Musher pups—a group of dogs named after the canine heroes who made the very long and dangerous 674 mile run to Nome, Alaska to deliver a life saving serum, diphtheria antitoxin in 1925.

Aleu was the smallest of the pack but made up for her size (though still isn’t small) with her heart, character and huge personality.

We are so thankful to her fosters for saving them, helping them thrive, teaching her life skills, socialization, and making sure she was healthy, happy and a well rounded gal to set her up for success for her new family.

We are so thankful to her new family for adding this Angel to their hearts and homes. Aleu has the best mom and dad, and a big brother Shepherd to continue teaching, molding and helping her develop into the very best dog she can be. We wish you all the absolute best that life can bring you, and all the years of love your hearts can handle.

Wilma - Adopted 2/11/2026


Wilma came to us in November, she and her pup Pebbles, had been picked up by animal control as strays. Both girls were the absolute most sweet beings, some of the sweetest we’ve known!

Wilma, being distinguished in age at around 7.5, won over every person here quickly, finished up her vet care, including a dental with some extractions, and began living her best life while she waited for someone deserving of her love to come along to choose as her forever.

We are so thankful to her fosters for giving her the love, structure, security, and attention she deserved while in their care, and being the bridge she need to fur-always.

We are so grateful to her new mom for adding this Angel to her heart and home. Not only does Wilma have a wonderful mom, but she has some kitty siblings to get into mischief with (hopefully not too much), to sunbathe in windows with, and to enjoy the rest of her days with.

We wish all of you the very best this life can bring you.

Togo - Adopted 2/7/2026


Togo is a part of our Musher pups—a group of dogs named after the canine heroes who made the very long and dangerous 674 mile run to Nome, Alaska to deliver a life saving serum, diphtheria antitoxin in 1925. Togo was the quiet, most important dog of this run, traveling the longest and most treacherous span of 261 miles. He often didn’t get as much credit as Balto, the last leg of the run; but without Togo, so many lives would have perished.

The name fit him exquisitely. He was the quiet, observant, most intelligent member of his litter. The smartest, the one who will grow up with the highest drive for learning and working. The glue who held them all in line.

We are so thankful to his fosters for saving them, helping them thrive, teaching him life skills, socialization, and making sure he was healthy, happy and a well rounded boy to set him up for success for his new family.

We are so thankful to his new family for adding this Angel to their hearts and homes. Togo has a great mom and dad, a human sister of his own to love for always, and a doggo Shepherd sister to continue teaching, molding and helping him develop into the very best dog he can be. We wish you all the absolute best that life can bring you, and all the years of love your hearts can handle.

Happiest tails, most handsome boy. You are so very loved!

We are so thankful to his foster for giving him the love, patience and structure he deserved while he got his vetting completed and awaited his new family to find him.

We are so grateful to his new family for choosing to add this angel to their hearts and home. He has a wonderful mom and dad, a human boy of his own, and a doggo fursibling to spend his days romping with and enjoying life with.

Plum - Adopted 1/30/2026

We are so thankful to her foster for providing the safety, security and love of a home while she finished her vet care and waited for her family to find her.

Baloo - Adopted 1/17/2026


Baloo and his siblings joined us at the beginning of October needing some pretty major tlc with their grooming, nails, parasites and socialization, and they needed to gain a good bit of weight. They settled into their foster, got all their vaccines completed, were treated for parasites, got their skin and fur all cleaned up, and their nails did. They quickly became the sweetest little mogwai bunches of fur, and now they have all found their forever homes.

We are so thankful to Baloo’s new mom for choosing to add this Angel to her home and heart. He has an amazing mom who will give him the world, some kitty siblings and his own doggo sister to continue showing him all the fun things in store for his life. We wish you all the best that this life can bring you.

Dahlia - Adopted 1/16/2026


Dahlia came to us with the very best RBF we’ve seen in a minute (but the absolute most amazing personality) because someone had tied a band around her tail to do an “at home tail dock” it became so infected, it spread to the base of her spine and when she got to us she was rushed immediately to one ER (thanks CPVETS!) and had bloodwork, X-rays and a catheter put in, and then was taken immediately to BluePearl Pittsburgh Pet Hospitals to the neurology and surgical team to have her tail amputated. The entire tail was removed, she doesn’t even have a nubbin to wag, but she thankfully avoided becoming septic and healed so so beautifully.

We are so thankful to her fosters for providing her the space and grace to heal, showing her kindness and love, teaching her about laughter, love and happiness. Dahlia finished up all of her normal vetting and then awaited her perfect family.

We are so very grateful to her new mom and dad for adding this Angel to their hearts and home. Dahlia has an amazing mom and dad, and a fur brother to spend her days playing with, growing with, and loving each day with love. We wish all of you the very best this life can bring you.

Oakley - Adopted 1/10/2026


Oakley was taken in by a nice family after seeing her being given away.They started her vet care and searched for a rescue to help out with the rest of it and to help find her the best home.

She then joined us and went to her foster, whom we are so very grateful for, and made huge strides in learning some confidence and trust in new places and situations. She finished up her vetting, continued learned some commands, worked on her stuffy thrashing game, polishing up her house and crate training skills, and awaited her family to find her.

We are so thankful to her new mom and dad for choosing to open their hearts and home to this beauty. They know she will need patience to fully open up to her dad, and her mom is hoping that once she settles in, they can work on her becoming a therapy helping dog. She’s going to have the most amazing life, and she deserves it. We wish you all the absolute best this life can bring you.

Happiest tails sweet girl. You are so very loved!




Toffee - Adopted 1/10/2026


Toffee came to us after her dad could no longer care for her. She was still a young gal and he wanted to give her the best life possible.

She went into her foster where she learned to trust new people, play and live with another dog, get all of her vetting completed since she had none, and to be loved beyond measure. We are so thankful to her foster for giving her the time, space and grace to heal, blossom and be ready for her furalways.

We are so thankful to her new mom for choosing to add this angel to her heart and home. Toffee has a fur sister doggo, a kitty and some farm animals to meet and figure out. We wish all of you the very best this life can bring you.

Rocket - Adopted 1/9/2026

Rocket’s foster family fell in love with him very quickly, and decided he was already home. He has a wonderful mom and dad, his own sister who adores him, and he has a fursister sibling who is also a former Angel. We are so thankful his family choose to add another Angel to their hearts and home, and wish you all the very best that this life can bring you.

Happiest tails, sweet boy. You are so very loved!





Ori - Adopted 1/7/2026


Ori was a semi feral boy who came to us in March of 2024, a transfer from another rescue who was having a rough time and the dogs in their care needed and deserved more than they could offer to them.

We quickly learned Ori wasn’t just a normal “rescue” dog. He was fearful of every new situation. He was terrified of leashes and collars—likely due to being feral and then being “catchpoled” by an officer. To this day, though he wears his collar proudly, he still fears leashes. Ori needed a fenced yard, lots and lots of patience, and a dog who could help him to know he was safe in situations he was exposed to. He learned that new people aren’t bad, and can be friends. He learned that he really likes lamb chop toys, and kittens. And that his foster family was super duper A-ok.

We knew that finding him a home suitable would be a hard task. It would require extreme patience, kindness, and check the box of all he required. After a year and a half of posting him, his foster family realized that they were his forever from day 1, and that going somewhere new would likely be detrimental to the trust that he had already built.

The decision was made in October, but just due to the busyness of the year and schedules not aligning, and the fact we knew he was safe and wasn’t going anywhere, we didn’t get the opportunity for a proper adoption photo.

We are so thankful to Ori’s mom and dad for adding this Angel to their hearts and home. Ori has two other former Angel doggo siblings, and another doggo sibling, and also has some kitties to keep him busy and entertained. We wish all of you the very best that this life can bring you. You’ve been home since day 1, but now it’s official.

Happiest tails sweet boy. You are so very loved!

Storm - Adopted 1/3/2026


Storm came to us at the beginning of November with her two pups after being found as strays and taken to a local shelter. She went into foster care, finished up all her vetting and settled into home life. She showed us what an absolute doll she is and such an amazing girl! We are so thankful to her fosters for giving her the space and security to become a dog and find her forever.

We are so very grateful to her new family for adding this Angel to their hearts and homes. Storm will have her new abode all to herself and her mom to be treated like a queen, and has lots of grandkids to fall in love with and win the hearts of. We think she may have already  we wish all of you the absolute best that life can bring you.

Happiest tails, sweetest girl. You are so very loved!

Pepper - Adopted 1/3/2026


Pepper came to us after being found wandering around Seven Springs by some employees. They checked all around the area and then took her to a shelter who asked us if we would be able to take her in.

So this pretty senior gal joined us to get some pretty extensive vetting done—urinalysis, skin treatments, flea treatments, vaccines, fecals and bloodwork. She did it all with dignity and grace and we are so thankful for her foster mom for keeping her safe and loved while she waited for her forever.

We are so grateful to her new mom and dad for choosing to add this angel to their hearts and home. She has wonderful pawrents whom we know will make her every moment special. We wish all of you the very best that life can bring you.

Nutmeg - Adopted 1/1/2026


Nutmeg joined us about two months ago after being abandoned in the woods. She had parasites. She was malnourished. Malnourished to the point that she had no muscle mass in her abdominal wall and truthfully resembled a dog with fluid buildup in their abdomen from heart failure. So she underwent a ton of tests—urinalysis, ultrasounds, bloodwork, the works.

With lots of love, deworming, proper nutrition and antibiotics, she has truly bloomed and flourished and became a beautiful blend of spice and sweetness. Just like her name.

We are so thankful to her new family for choosing to add this angel to their hearts and home. Nutmeg has three little humans of her own to grow with, to continue learning and developing with, and to love for all of her days. She’s got a pretty great mom and dad too. We wish each of you the absolute best life this world can offer.

Happiest tails sweet girl! You are so very loved!

Diem - Adopted 1/1/2026


Diem came to us in March of 2024. She was a mess to be quite honest. She hadn’t had a good life, had litters of pups, was emaciated, covered in scabs, sores and had a very long journey to be what is considered healthy.

But she did it. And along the way, she found her best friends in life are her kids—the human kind. She waited for 6 months for her home, and then a year, and then a year and 6 months….. and still no one came to Make her the best member of their family they could dream of.

And then, she developed a mass. And it was aspirated, and we learned it was mast cell cancer. And so she had surgery. She healed. And then her foster family realized that she had never found that forever home she dreamed of, because they had already found her.

Sometimes dogs wait longer, and that’s ok. Our dogs are not to be pitied. Because they are immensely loved in their fosters. It just means that their people haven’t yet seen them, that the right home hasn’t come along yet, and sometimes….. sometimes it means they’ve been home all along.

We wish Diem, her 3 human kids, her mom and dad, and her fursiblings the very best life they could ever dream of. Days filled with pajama wearing, dress up and tea parties, and always, always love.

Happiest tails, beautiful girl. You are so very loved!
