Frank is a nine-month-old terrier hound mix who was rescued from Texas. He arrived at Animal League America’s campus 5 months ago and for some reason keeps getting overlooked, which everyone finds so surprising due to his stunning brindle coat and soulful golden eyes. Since this will be his first time ever living in a home it would be best if the residence is located in a quieter neighborhood with a fully fenced in yard while he acclimates. An owner with previous experience would also be ideal for Frank for this reason.
This glorious one-year-old guy from Puerto Rico can barely hold still; he’s so excited about the safety and freedom he’s experiencing in Bianca’s Furry Friends. If purrfect is important to you, you’re going to want to come quickly and claim Ernesto’s heart!
*Sensational Senior Alert* Biscuit is an eight-year-old boxer mix who was originally rescued from Georgia as a puppy. He returned to Animal League America a few months ago after his owner surrendered him. Biscuit would like to find the forever family he deserves as soon as possible since a home lifestyle is all that he has ever really known. Biscuit loves to run and play in the park and of course he is a fantastic cuddler! He makes new friends everywhere he goes and if you come down to meet him you will find out for yourself what a lovable and infectious personality he has.
After living on the beaches of Puerto Rico, one-year-old Calabria couldn’t be happier for the life upgrade. This glorious tortie is grateful for easy access to food and cozy beds. She would also prefer to be the only pet in her home. So much more is in store for Calabria, and Animal League America has a feeling the rest of her life will begin soon as a member of a very lucky family.
Jersey is a ten-month-old hound mix who was rescued from Texas. Jersey was adopted once and returned after 2 months for being too energetic for her owners. To ensure her next home is a forever one, her new adopters should have previous experience owning a canine. Jersey needs someone who can give her the enrichment she needs with playtime outside and toys to keep her mind stimulated. If you are an outgoing individual, Jersey will make the best of companions.
Check out two-year-old Oliver’s little tabby patch on his cheek. He’s too cute! All the way from Afghanistan, Oliver knows a good thing when he sees one and thinks you might be the one for him. While Oliver is easily excited by all the commotion in his room and has tons of energy to burn off. What he really craves is a place of his own, with humans who can keep up with his delightful antics and are dedicated to loving him.
Dove is a gorgeous six-month-old Pointer mix who was rescued from Texas. Dove is a sweet puppy who is wary of new faces but once she is comfortable, she is an extremely loyal companion. She loves to take long walks with her favorite staff members, play with squeaky toys, and does well in doggie playgroups! Dove is seeking an experienced adopter with older children to continue to work with her on her training.
