Henry
In his new home he loves going for daily walks and playing ball in the backyard. He’s the king of the castle (only pet) and will have someone home with him almost all the time (even after quarantine), as some of his new family members are retired.

Hallie
Laid to rest 4/14/20
Our Hallie girl was special. Everyone who met her knew that. Even diabetes and blindness couldn't keep this happy girl down. So we knew we had to find her a special home. Enter Bethany, Ken, and their family. From the moment they met her, they were meant to be with her.

Mars came to SPAAR when her family was no longer able to care for her.

Levi
This sweet boy came to SPAAR with a myriad of physical health concerns, including complications from Lyme disease and significant arthritis setbacks. While his recovery road included a fantastic stay with his foster mom and sister pup, we knew we had to find the right adopter that was knowledgeable and experienced in senior animals, Bernese Mountain Dogs, arthritis, and blood-borne illnesses.
Enter Kaitlyn. Growing up with BMDs that had physical ailments, she immediately fell in love with Levi when she saw his story and reached out to us. As you can tell from his photo, he is completely spoiled and loved. He goes to work with his new mom, is in a regular physical therapy regimen, has gained some healthy weight, keeps his blood work in check, and even took in a spa day.

Cha Cha
Laid to rest 9/11/19
Who says a 16-year-old blind and deaf 5-pound toy poodle shouldn't know love, comfort, and safety? Her new mum works from home and spends a lot of time carrying Cha Cha around in a snug wrap to make her feel secure.
This tiny treasure even put on her "best dress" for family photo day. Thank you Niki and Luke for seeing her beauty and giving her the perfect home. And thank you Brian and Vanessa for fostering another little SPAAR love <3

Evie and Kimber
Michelle and Adam adopted sweet Brewtus from us a while back, and he sadly passed away in 2018. They also fostered spunky SPAAR Polo, who got adopted. Then Evie and Kimber found their way into their home, we thought, temporarily. But they couldn't give up these sweet girls. Say hello to the newest, and permanent, part of their beautiful family.

Sugar
Sugar hit the "family jackpot," for sure. In her brief time with them already, she's gone on about a thousand walks (Sure, that's a bit of an exaggeration, but she LOVES her walks!), met a horse (!!!), traveled on Thanksgiving, helped to decorate for Christmas, sleeps in a big, comfy bed, and even convinced her new mom to buy a bigger couch so they can snuggle more together. Three generations of humans live under one roof with Sugar, so she gets six times the pets, love, and attention.

Tiny little Chai has found a forever home to spoil her! Her days will be spent doing what she loves - cuddling with her mom, looking out the window with her senior kitty sister Lucy, and picking out which dress to wear for the day.

Diamond
Laid to rest June 1, 2019
A happy "tail," indeed. She now lives with two other pups (including a tripod named Oreo), is learning not to chase the barn cats, and spends her mornings watching the horses. Her new mom and dad adore her!
We have to send a very special thank you to her foster mom, Kristin, who made Diamond a part of her family for more than a year. At SPAAR we search for the best family fit and are committed to the comfort and care of our seniors. We wouldn't exist, quite simpy, without our fosters. They're the heart and soul of SPAAR.

Maya
Laid to rest October 20, 2018
Sweet miss Maya came to us when her owner couldn't take care of her anymore. Susan and her family were interested in fostering a senior pup and finding a companion for their friendly beagle Rusty. A few weeks later, Susan said, "I was talking to Paul, and he and I are really thinking we would like to apply to adopt Maya - it is unbelievable how well she has fit into our lives." Needless to say, it was a perfect match.

A picture tells a thousand words. By the looks of this one, we think this little guy has found the perfect place to call home. He now lives with two senior Boston Terriers, Lily and Oliver. He even has a senior dog stroller, so he can meet his sister at the school bus. Welcome home, Mr. Magoo. You have been - and always will be - so very loved.

Percy
Laid to rest October 27, 2017
Percy has been with SPAAR for almost a year and has been in a foster home for almost 2 years! Percy was a very special adoption for us because he is what we call a "ghost kitty." He's very nervous and hides a lot, it takes him a really long time to learn to trust people and come around to them. He loves to play at night and get lots of cuddles when it's bedtime. He also couldn't be adopted into a home with other animals. Well, he found an amazing lady who loves him for his crazy quirks and is willing to wait for him to love her, however long that may take. Congratulations to Percy and his new mom. We could not possibly be more excited!!!!!

Blanche
Blanche was surrendered to a local shelter. They determined that she was having some issues with her kidneys and would not be able to become adoptable. So they called us, and an incredible foster stepped up to take Blanche in and agreed to foster her for hospice.
It came as quite a surprise when we found out that Blanche's kidney issues are manageable, and she's living a full senior life with her (foster) mom!

Beauty
Laid to rest fall 2017
Beauty has been with SPAAR for almost a year and has been in a foster home for almost 2 years! When we first met Beauty we weren't sure that we would find a home for her at age 16, we thought perhaps she might need to be a hospice cat. But after lots of love in her foster home and plenty of vet visits and medication, at age 17, our gorgeous girl found a home of her own! Carmen was looking for a new companion and Beauty fit the bill. These 2 are a perfect pair, thank you Carmen for giving Beauty her perfect forever home.

Brutus
Laid to rest October 25, 2018
Brutus was surrender to a rural shelter in PA after being removed from a home where he was being severely neglected and starved. He arrived at SPAAR with severe skin infections, ear infections, anxiety and concerning bloodwork. After spending 2 months with his foster family healing and getting healthy Brutus became a charmer who is loved by everyone he meets (dog, cat and human alike). After going through so much with Brutus his foster family just couldn't stand to give him up! Congratulations to Brutus and his new family, it's truly a rags to riches story.

BEAU
Laid to rest 2017 Beau was surrendered to the Animal Rescue League at the age of 10 because he wasn't getting along with another dog. He quickly became a volunteer favorite and went home to be fostered through his kennel cough...but never returned to shelter life. He now lives with fellow senior dog Sadie, three cats, four kids, and two adults, including Cassie Conti, SPAAR's manager of social media. Beau's favorite activities include sleeping, eating cheese, being brushed, and greeting his family when they come home. |
CRUSHA
Laid to rest September 21, 2015 Crusha was surrendered to the Animal Rescue League (ARL) at the age of 8. She had a large lump on her side that the medical staff diagnosed as a mast cell tumor. Due to her cancer diagnosis, she was unable to officially be adopted out to the public. Laura Brocklebank, SPAAR co-founder and ARL volunteer, decided that Crusha would just have to become her family's dog. She now lives with two other dogs, Dino and Millie, and a rotating cast of foster animals. Crusha, proving old dogs can learn new tricks! |
