Story
Hello! My name is Mia and I've been described as a sweet but nervous girl. I tend to need a bit of time when it comes to first meeting you. Once I finally warm up I'm a sweet love bug who will be right by your side! However, I am a hit or miss when it comes to getting pets so it may take some trial and error to see how I'm feeling that day. I'm just a gentle shy girl who wants someone perfect for me! If I'm a perfect addition to your home, stop by the ARL today.Available at the Animal Rescue League of Berks County, Birdsboro Pa 19508, KL#1257 Primary Color: Brown Secondary Color: White Weight: 66.2 Age: 4yrs 5mths 3wks

Miss Ursula is a beaut! She needs a person who is willing to give her time and patience to adjust and trust. Once she feels comfortable she is a sweetheart who loves cuddling on the couch. She's very affectionate and loves hugs and kisses. She absolutely LOVES our other dogs and plays with them whenever she can. She loves toys and treats. She's energetic and walks well on a leash. She's a great dog with a great heart and disposition once she gets past her nervousness. She's really worth the time and effort so reach out to meet her today!Available at the Animal Rescue League of Berks County, Birdsboro Pa 19508, KL#1257 Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 73.375 Age: 6yrs 4mths 3wks

I'm free to adopt thanks to a generous donor!Hey there, I'm Annie, a charming grey-faced sweetheart on a quest to find my forever home! When it comes to people, I'm an absolute lovebug who craves affection and enjoys being in close proximity. I thrive on attention and would be overjoyed to have all your love and care to myself. I must admit, I'm not the biggest fan of other animals, so I would prefer to be the only furry friend in the household. Apart from cuddling up with you, I also relish going on leisurely walks and snuggling up in cozy, oversized beds. If you're intrigued and would like to meet me, why not pay a visit to the shelter today? I can't wait to meet my perfect match!Available at the Animal Rescue League of Berks County, Birdsboro Pa 19508, KL#1257 Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 67.3 Age: 9yrs 4mths 3wks

Story
Captain, the owner of this charming mug, was rescued from a less than ideal environment along with a group of other dogs. Despite his past, he is an incredibly affectionate and loving boy who deserves a home that will treat him like royalty. While Captain has experience living with other dogs, it is uncertain whether he has ever encountered a cat, so introductions should be done gradually. It is recommended that Captain be placed in a household with older children who can handle his playful nature. If you believe Captain is the perfect addition to your family, we invite you to visit the ARL today and give our beloved Captain a forever home.Available at the Animal Rescue League of Berks County, Birdsboro Pa 19508, KL#1257 Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 73.1 Age: 4yrs 7mths 2wks

Story
Ey yo, my name's Ducato. I'm a tough looking guy, but what I wouldn't do for a snack! I'm a pretty strong dude, so you better be hittin' the gym if you're thinking of taking me home! I love getting some cardio in to keep my physique and look good for the ladies. Speaking of which, if you have other dogs at home, better bring them in to meet me because I can be a bit much for most and sometimes there's just not enough room in this town for the 2 of us. Kids are alright, but I'm not into changing diapers, so older kids are fine by me. I sound pretty cool right? Prove it and come to the ARL today and take me home!Available at the Animal Rescue League of Berks County, Birdsboro Pa 19508, KL#1257 Primary Color: White Secondary Color: Grey Weight: 68.8 Age: 2yrs 6mths 2wks
