PLEASE HELP FAITH!!!

We noticed that Faith was squatting all of the time and seemed very uncomfortable. We took her to the Littlestown Vet Hospital where we found out that she has bladder stones the size of goose eggs and she also has a hernia. While under anesthesia they will remove the growth from her eye as well.

Please help Faith get her HUGE bladder stones and hernia removed!!!!

When you adopt a pet you save the life of two animals, the one you take
home and the one you've made room for.

                    

We thank you for your interest in our adoptable pets. When you adopt a pet from the ACSPCA, you are giving an animal a second chance at life and we hope you will encourage other people to consider adopting from their local animal shelter. Please take a look at some of the wonderful animals we have for adoption. More come in every day, so please stop by and visit.

Please watch our TV Show "Pet Talk" to see our adoptable animals on ACTV TV Channel 19 on Tuesdays at 9:00 p.m., Wednesday at 9:00 a.m., Fridays at 6:30 p.m., and Sundays at 4:30 p.m. or you may now watch the "Pet Talk" show online.

                    

                    

You will need to schedule an appointment to surrender your pet. There will be an owner surrender fee and you must live in Adams County. We encourage you to seek a viable alternative on your own. Please see our Pet Friendly Rentals and the Animal Rescue list below (Rescues that have been approved by the ACSPCA). Thank you.

If you rent your current home, a document signed by your landlord giving approval for you to keep a pet in your home. You may provide either a lease or a signed letter from your landlord. Please include the landlord's business address and phone number.

If you are coming from outside Adams County to adopt one of our pets, please plan to bring the name and phone number of the humane society that serves the area where you live.

All animals in your household must be current on vaccinations and be spayed or neutered. If you have a copy of your animals shot records please bring them along. If you already have a dog and are interested in adopting another canine companion, we require that the two dogs meet at the Animal Shelter, on neutral territory. If you have any questions or concerns about making this introduction, please call the Animal Shelter before you visit: 717-334-8876.

Please note: The Adams County SPCA reserves the right to do follow-up visits and to pre-adoption and post-adoption home checks by our Humane Officer. The Adams County SPCA reserves the right to deny any adoption application.

NOTE: "If applicant for adoption is notified of approval of adoption; potential adoptor has 24 hours in which to contact the ACSPCA to confirm or deny desire to adopt. After 24 hours without communication; the animal's adoption falls to the next person in line to adopt said animal."

You must take your new pet to a veterinarian for a health check within 15 days of adoption.

You must have an adult animal spayed or neutered within 30 days of adoption.

We seek PERMANENT, lifetime homes for the animals in our care. If at any time it becomes impossible for you to keep an animal you have adopted from our Shelter, you must return the animal to us. Please note that an appointment must be made in advance to return an adopted pet or to surrender any other pet to our Shelter.
