Brownie Boy is a sweet senior boy about 10 year old. He had a rough life in Texas. Entered the shelter with an old injury to his left front elbow. Apparently elbow had been broken and never fixed. When our rescue pulled him from the euthanasia room he was nothing but kisses and head bumps for petting. We just felt he deserved some happy years before the end. He was so happy just to have attention. We took Brownie several time to the veterinarian clinic and they believed amputation would not be a good idea since he still uses it for weight bearing and does not seem in pain. He gets along with other dogs well and loves all people. He is house trained and crate trained. Can anyone give this guy a loving home through his golden years. You won't be sorry! He is such a love bug! If interested please text or call Casey at 570-441-0083 and submit an application from our website rescuepetsservingvets.org. We adopt to veterans at no charge and non-veterans as well for a minimal fee.

 Leo is looking for a home. He was a lost dog that no one has claimed. Please come meet him and he will win your heart. He is dog-friendly and kid-friendly.

Meet Tookie along with the other dog we have up for adoption, Mo, this 10 yr old senior is the last dog left behind from a horrible hoarding case in SC.  Our rescue wanted to help her find her happy ending and get her a loving family after so many years of abuse. She has no known health issues and is so mild-mannered and loving with people. Would make a get pet for someone who needs a calm quiet companion. She gets along fine with the younger dog,  Mo and they are actually kenneled together and we believe she she would show only friendliness to other dogs. We have to cat test her yet. We can do that upon request. We are hoping someone could open their home and hearts to this sweet senior girl. Please text or call 570-441-0083 if interested! Casey

Meet Derby! He is one awesome dog!  Young 1.5 year old 60 lb neutered hunk. He absolutely LOVES kids and all people. He is super dog friendly. He doesn't even react if a dog goes after him. He is so chill. He is a hefty big boy and currently is pretty strong on the leash but he is already improving! And the harness does wonders. He will sit on command. He has been literally covered in twenty plus kids all at the same time and just was in heaven in the animal shelter school day visit from the local community where he came from in SC. He did test positive for heartworm so we have already begun the treatment to cure that.  He has no sign or symptoms. The rescue completes treatment here at no charge. The pet can be adopted any time and go home. He would just have to come back for three shots. He is such a good boy and would make a great companion dog or emotional support dog for an adult or a special needs child or just a regular family! He is one of my Favs !  Not cat tested but can be on request. If interested please text or call Casey at 570-441-0083 and submit an application from our website rescuepetsservingvets.org to speed things up! He deserves a great home! We home to military vets at no charge or non-veterans for a minimal adoption fee.

Someone poured acid on her back or some other chemical. She has permanent hair loss on parts of her back but other than that she is a beautiful girl inside and out despite her abuses I've history. Can someone give this girl her happy ending? She is extremely affectionate with all people and kids. She gets along with other dogs as long as they are not aggressive to her. She does well in her crate with no accidents so she may be house trained already. We have not cat tested her yet, but can on request.

Grinch must have been named for his wrinkly face because he is not like the Grinch who stole Christmas...he is more like the Grinch who stole your heart! He is very sweet and loving...gets a little excited when playing. Needs some basic leash training but what rescue dog doesn't...?? He is very smart just needs a little time put in to his obedience/leash training. He was a little scared of men if he is in an enclosed area...probably feels like he can escape the bad guys...but he has gotten much better in the time he has been with us and we think he is gotten over that. He has the most beautiful golden brown eyes and that smoochy face you just want to kiss! If interested in making him part of your pack text me at 570-441-0083 and you can meet him and meet and greets are recommended if you have any other dogs in the home so we can ensure it's a good fit! He is currently receiving treatment to cure the heartworm. He will be treated here at the rescue but can go home at any time as long as he can be brought back for a couple injections over two months. Rescue takes care of all expenses for the treatment given at the rescue.

Zoey is a calm laid back girl as long as you are with her and she is not alone. She would make an excellent emotional support or companion dog for a person. She just currently has some anxiety about being left alone in the shelter which is understandable. Her she just wants to be with people. She doesn't seem to be concerned about other dogs but we don't know for sure 100% how she is all the time with other dogs if she were to be left alone. Walking outside she is fine and next to other dogs in a kennel she has been fine. But she would definitely like to be out of a kennel and laying on the couch chilling with her human. She is supposedly 6/7 year old but does certainly not act that old. We believe her age listed may be inaccurate and she may be a little younger but she is such a sweet calm girl when you are with her. Spayed vaccinated and microchipped. Walks well on leash. Takes treats gently. Would be good around children I'm sure.

Loki Bell is a fun-loving 2-3 years old that weighs about 50 lbs. He loves toys and can play fetch for hours. He is always ready for adventure and will make the best running partner. He has done well other dogs but meet and greet is always recommended.  He likes his harness because he knows it means he is going out for play time.  If interested please text or call Casey at 570-441-0083 to set up a meet and greet.  

BuBu is a sweet handsome boy! He is fun loving happy go lucky guy! His issue is he has to meet men with a proper introduction. It's pretty obvious some guy was not so nice to him. Once he trusts you he is great. We love to take him out for a little walk!  He is not a puller on the leash. He seems like he would like to play with dogs but unsure of himself. He is house and crate trained. Loves his chew toys. He craves attention from people and loves to give it back! He will sit for treats. He can meet you anytime cause he wants to get the heck out of Dodge!

Fiona is looking for her furever home. We think it will take time probably....She is 2 years old, spayed, heartworm negative and about 45 pounds.  Fiona is a little fearful of men, but once they give her a hamburger and a little time she warms up. She has been fearful of very young kids. She did not test well with cats . She's a little nervous here at the rescue and would love a nice warm place to call home. We could see her doing well with a single woman perhaps or a couple with a quiet home. She's extremely sweet once she trusts you.  If interested please text or call Casey at 570-441-0083 to set up a meet and greet.

If interested please text or call Casey at 570-441-0083 to set up a meet and greet.
