Meet Lillyann: Lillyann is about a 22 month old (as of February 2025) lab mix (best guess) that weighs about 60 pounds. The L litter of 4 (Lillyann, Leo, Lacy and London) were being given away out of the back of an SUV in a parking lot in Mississippi’s 100° heat. Lillyann is currently being fostered in the south and would love to take the freedom ride north to Pennsylvania to meet more prospective families. Lillyann is a sweet girl that is energetic and full of love! Lillyann loves her toys, treats and playing outside. Lillyann does great with all of the other dogs that she has been with. She has met cats and wasn't very interested in them. Lillyann has been good around the kids she has met (around 10 years), but she likes to jump around, so we would recommend no small children at this time. Lillyann is crate trained and house trained. She currently uses a doggy door and may need some patience adjusting to a new system, but she lets herself out without accidents now! We would love for Lillyann to have a home with a fenced in yard for her to run and play freely! Lillyann is up to date on her shots and spayed. If you are interested in adopting this sweet girl, please go to Charlie’s Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application. CURRENT  LOCATION: Mississippi, awaiting transport to PA ##1790075##

Meet London: London is about a 22 month old (as of February 2025) lab mix (best guess) that weighs about 60 pounds. The L litter of 4 (Lillynn, Leo, Lacy and London) were being given away out of the back of an SUV in a parking lot in Mississippi’s 100° heat. London is currently being fostered in the south and would love to take the freedom ride north to Pennsylvania to meet more prospective families. London looks like he has socks on his front feet and loves water! London is a bit more of a laid back guy, but he loves his toys, treats, and playing outside. London does great with all of the other dogs that he has been with. He has met cats and wasn't very interested in them. London has been good around the kids he has met (around 10 years) which makes us think he would do well with other children. London is crate trained and house trained. He currently uses a doggy door and may need some patience adjusting to a new system, but he lets himself out without accidents now. We would love for London to have a home with a fenced in yard for him to run and play freely! London is up to date on his shots and neutered. If you are interested in adopting this sweet boy, please go to Charlie’s Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application.

Meet Loretta: Loretta is about a 22 month old (as of February 2025) lab mix that weighs about 29 pounds. Loretta was found with her sister, Patsy, near a dump site on a country road in the south. A nice man found them and brought them to us and we were able to get them into the rescue. Loretta is currently being fostered in the south and would love to take the freedom ride north to Pennsylvania to meet more prospective families. Loretta is as sweet as can be! This cutie is a petite gal that is very loving and friendly. Loretta's charm shines when you meet her. Loretta loves to play with other dogs and is very submissive. Loretta is medium energy and will romp and run around but then settles to chill inside. We think Loretta's ideal home would have a companion dog to play with and a fenced in yard. Loretta loves children and is very gentle. She was a little wary of the cat she met, but didn't bother with it and was seemingly indifferent to the cat. Loretta loves water - she would happily accompany you on a trip to a lake or hike along a creek! Loretta is working on her house training and has done great with routine breaks outside. Loretta is up to date on her shots and spayed. If you are interested in adopting this cutie, please go to Charlie’s Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application.
