Meet Helen's litter! Helen came to us in an emergency situation. She was stuck in a high kill southern shelter, very pregnant. We had to make an immediate decision to pull her out of that dangerous situation just 9 days before she gave birth to 12 beautiful babies that were born 9/8/26.
They will be ready to go to permanent homes after 11/3/26. They have had one round of puppy shots and have been dewormed. They will be due for their second set of puppy shots by 11/17.

Meet Delta Just look at those adorable ears! Delta is a precious 1–2-year-old girl weighing about 25 pounds, and she is still very much a puppy at heart! She has some puppy energy to burn and is always ready for fun and adventure Delta loves being outside, taking long walks, and playing with the other dogs. She also enjoys spending time with people and soaking up all the attention and affection they are willing to give her. Because Delta is an active young girl, she would do best with an active family and a securely fenced yard where she can run, play, and enjoy being a dog. She has so much love and personality to share and is ready to find a family who will continue to help her grow into the wonderful companion she is meant to be. Delta is HW negative!

11. Jane
Jane Female 39 lbs 1-3 YO HW positive Our Little Bookworm! Jane must be a pretty smart girl because Jane was picked up at the local library after this sweet girl wandered inside and decided to do a little exploring! We have no idea what Jane was looking for… maybe a book about finding the perfect family? Unfortunately, Jane’s library adventure landed her at the shelter, and although it was clear she had a family at some point, sadly, no one ever came to claim her. Jane is such a gentle, loving girl. She walks beautifully on a leash and gets along wonderfully with the other dogs. She truly seems to be the kind of girl who would make a wonderful companion and just wants someone to love her. Jane is heartworm positive, so she will need to complete treatment before she can travel to her new home. We are looking at October for her arrive to PA. After all, every good book deserves a happy ending… and Jane’s story is still being written.

12. Kelsey
Meet Kelsey — A Little Girl Who Has Been Through So Much
Read more about Kelsey
Kelsey is a 2–4-year-old female came in weighing just 20 pounds, and she was very underweight. She was picked up by Animal Control on a rural road, and it appears she had been on her own for quite some time. Kelsey was skin and bones and had abrasions on her head and back. We can only imagine what she has been through or how she ended up in this condition. Despite everything, this sweet girl is still happy and friendly with the volunteers. She has worked extremely hard at recovery and has gained some much-needed weight. The good news is that Kelsey is heartworm negative and spayed! Getting Kelsey into the shelter and securing a foster may have saved her life, but now she needs the next step - a home to call her own. She has already fought so hard just to survive. Now she deserves the chance to recover and finally know what it feels like to be safe, loved, and cared for.

14. Helen
Meet Helen!
Helen is a beautiful 2-3 year-old sweetheart. Not only was Helen on a countdown clock to be euthanized, but we soon learned that she was VERY pregnant. We just could not let her story end there, and we made a last-minute decision to save her and her puppies. Helen arrived safely in PA just one week before giving birth to 12 beautiful puppies in September. Her puppies are almost weened and it's time for Helen to find a home of her own where she can be loved and spoiled.
Read more about Helen
She currently weighs just 40 pounds after giving birth, and her foster is working having her regain some weight. Unfortunately, she is HW+, but her treatment is already scheduled and fully sponsored by the rescue. After her Heartworm treatment, she will also be spayed. She is up to date on all vaccines.
Her foster family is perfectly content for her to stay with them through treatment and her spay, but, if the perfect home shows up prior, she can certainty move into her forever home and undergo treatment there. The rescue will continue to support her (and her new family) through this process. she's ready to find the loving family she's been waiting for.
Helen is just a gorgeous chocolate brown and as cute as can be! But that is just the beginning. Her personality is where she really shines. She's so sweet and loving! She enjoys taking walks, she's great on the leash, she loves spending time outdoors, and is friendly with both people and the other dogs. She LOVES to be next to her person and give cuddles. She is also crate trained and is perfectly fine being left during the day. They have not observed any type of food aggression or resource guarding. She is not a jumper, so she is safe around kids.
Helen is the whole package and a family will be lucky to have her. She has a gentle, affectionate personality and would love nothing more than a family to call her own. Helen deserves a soft bed, a warm home, and someone to love her forever. She can't wait to find her happily ever after!

Gabby
Female
2-4 YO
55 lbs
Gabby is a beautiful girl, about 2–4 years old and 55 pounds of pure love.
When Gabby first came to the shelter, she wasn't alone—she arrived with four precious puppies who depended on her. She was an amazing, devoted mom, giving her babies all the love and care they needed. Now that her puppies are weaned, it's finally Gabby's turn to be the one who is loved, spoiled, and is ready for adoption!
Gabby is a happy, affectionate girl who loves people and gets along well with other dogs. She would probably do best in a home without cats.

18. Gracie
Gracie’s life would make anyone who loves dogs cry. She was used as a breeding dog snd had 3 litters til she was no use to the breeder. The best news, he allowed our rescue to take custody of her to ensure that she has an awesome life going forward. We placed two of her puppies in wonderful homes snd now it is her time. She is current on all vaccines and is extremely shy. She will need a family to provide love and patience. She is starting to come out of her shell but loud noises frighten her. Gracie is 3 years old and a golden doodle. Our team is working on her leash manners and showing her basic commands. Slow and steady is what we prescribe. Interested?

19. Brutus
interested please complete Three weeks ago, our transport was leading on 23 East when the driver saw a dog in the middle of the road with no collar. There were a lot of cars, it was dark and our Team was worried he would get hit. When called he jumped in the van. The team went around the houses near the location and no one knew his story or where he came from. He was checked gor a chip snd every effort was exhausted looking for his family. Brutus is current on all his vaccines. He is heartworm negative and he will be neutered before adoption is final. He is a strong, muscular boy but he loves people. We are looking for an active family with no young children. He loves playing in the yard but we have not tested him with other dogs.

Adopting a dog in Jacksonwald
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
