ADOPTABLE DOGS & PUPPIES
Kennel License #13561
PO Box 286 Schnecksville, PA 18078
Meet Raine & Tiki !
Raine and Tiki are the perfect bonded pair. Tiki is a 4 year old male Japanese Chin, Raine is a 6 year old female Papillon. They both love walks, endless toys and a cozy bed to cuddle up in. Check their videos out on our SOAR Adoptables, Facebook page to see how fun they are!
They are house broken and walk well on a leash. A home with no cats is preferred, as they like to chase them. Both are up to date on vaccines and spay/neutered.
If you’d like to meet this adorable duo, please fill an application out today!
Meet Miranda!
This little gal is a mini poodle and is estimated to be about 5 years old.
She seeks all the human attention she can get and loves to be with her people! All she wants is to cuddle up next to you and watch your favorite shows.
Miranda is doing great with potty training and walks very well on a leash. She is up to date on vaccines and spayed.
A meet & greet with other house dogs is a must. She would do best with a calm, smaller dog as a friend.
Meet Layla!
Layla is a 13 week old unknown mix from the South. Looks like she may be a medium sized pup and have some Shepard in her.
Layla is a very gentle soul. All she wants is to be loved. She’s constantly giving her paw to let you know she wants to be your friend, is always showing her belly in hopes for a rub, and has a little black snout that she loves to nuzzle under your chin. She’s got the cutest grin that will just melt your heart. She loves to spend time in her crate and knows a variety of basic commands. She’s close to being potty trained, she’s fully crate trained, and learns very quickly. She is food motivated, eager to learn and is looking for adventure to build her confidence. She loves to supervise while cooking, boat rides, and any outdoor activity. She loves playing with toys and rough housing with her dog friends. She’s gentle and respectful with cats. Layla is a very special pup who is going to be a wonderful addition to any family.
Meet Sparky!
This smiley boy is a 14 lb., 10 month old Havanese pup looking for a home of his own. My foster mom says I seem like a pretty smart dude. I already know the word “crate” and know when it’s time to go in it, no hassle! I LOVE playing with other dogs and running around my foster family’s fenced in yard! The zoomies? Yep! I get them! I’m working on potty training and not chewing on things that aren’t mine, but doing well at both I guess!
I came from this thing humans call a “puppy mill”. I’m a little traumatized from that experience and tend to be hand shy, until I learn that humans can be pretty cool. Turns out they give treats and the best pets!
Because of these reasons, I’m looking for a patient home who will give me time to trust. I would never bite you, but I have to learn to relax when I’m being handled and picked up. And having another younger playful dog in the home is A MUST! I need someone to lead me and teach me doggy things. I’d also be good with cats. Due to my breed, I won’t shed but will need to be groomed every couple of months. Think I could come live with you forever? Apply today because I cant wait to meet you!
Meet Pickles!
You read that right, this is Pickles!! He is an 11-month-old, 8 lb, male Havanese. He is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Pickles was rescued from a puppy mill, where he has sadly spent his entire life, living in awful conditions. He needs a patient family to give him the time he needs to come out of his shell.
Pickles loves other dogs and requires a home with at least one other friendly pup. He is also cat-friendly. He is walking well on a leash, loves the outdoors, and is working on potty training.
Meet Oliver!
This handsome boy is approaching two years old and looking for his forever home.
The thing about Oliver is, that because of his past, he doesn’t understand human touch. He will require an extremely patient person or family to allow him his boundaries and the time to learn the true meaning of family life! Oliver is extremely food/treat motivated, loves toys, and going to the dog park.
The most ideal home for Oliver would be a home with a fenced yard and another or multiple dogs to learn from.
Oliver is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. He will require a belly band.

Is Linus, 2 year old beagle/chihuahua available to foster to adopt?
Hi Brenda!
We are considering a foster to adopt for Linus, but have to get approval. Please fill out an application for review. Once we receive it, someone will be in contact to talk about options for Linus.
Thank you! SOAR Volunteer.
I have some questions about Ray. Does he have SARDS? Does he use a Walkin Blind Dog Harness? I am interested in adopting him. Does he know basic Blind dogs commands or do I need to teach him? He is young enough to learn basic 1 word commands and live a happy life. I have application on file.
Hi Deborah,
For more information about Ray, please message the foster who has posted him on Facebook, for the best up to date information. If you have not already, please fill out an application to start the approval process.
Thank you! SOAR Volunteer
We are interested in adopting Petunia. We have a Cavopoo who needs a companion. She lost her big brother a month ago. He was a rescue and handicapped. Please advise if she is still available and the cost.
Regards
Diane Chladni
Hi Diane,

I filled out a application for Ray. Do have experience with blind dogs. Very interested . About 2 wks ago. Is he still available?
Hello! Yes, Ray is still available. I will pass your message along to our application team!
Thank you for checking in.
Hi I am interested in Waylon! I filled out an application a few days ago and wanted to confirm it was received. I was also wondering when I’d hear back?
Thank you,
Lydia
Hi Lydia! I have passed your information along and you should be hearing from her early next week! Thank you for reaching out & have a great weekend!
HI,
I am very interested in adopting Ollie or Gilbert.
Can I adopt right away, and forego the foster process?
Thanks
Hello! They are all currently in foster homes. All you have to do is apply!
Please head to our adoption application tab to get started. Thank you!
why is it so hard to adopt a dog when there so many qualified and more than loving and pet friendly people who need a friend to help them with loneliness to have a friend to wake up to every day no wonder there are so many pets in rescue centers i am very frustrated i just want a friend
Hi Diane, Have you put an application in with us for any in-particular available animal? If you haven’t fill out an application yet, that is the first step to finding you a great companion.
I filled out 2 applications on fri. When will I hear anything? When will you be at petco so I can see these dogs?
Please allow 5-7 days for a response from one of our volunteers. Once approved, a time will be scheduled for you to meet the dog you are interested in. Not every weekend are the dogs at Petco to meet them. I would suggest following SOAR Adoptables on Facebook to see who will be there week to week. Thank you!
I filled out an application a week ago and never heard from anyone. I guess Misty was adopted because I don’t see her listed anymore. Is there a reason I never received a call?
Hi Kathy,
Please understand that we get many applications and our rescue is fully volunteer based. We unfortunately don’t have the ability to call every single application we receive and ask to stay up to date on available animals on both our Facebook and website. Your application is good for 30 days if another dog comes along that catches your eye.
Thank you!
