Rex, corgi and Jack Russell terrier mix

Rex is a male corgi and Jack Russell terrier mix currently residing at Lancaster Four Dog Rescue, Inc.

Rex loves children, dogs and cats. He is already neutered, and he has all his shots. Have no fear: He's already house-trained.

Notes from Rex's caretakers:

He always has his tongue sticking out. He’s good with cats and he’s very laid-back and hardly ever barks.

Carly, chihuahua mix

Carly is a female chihuahua mix being kept at Underdog Railroad Rescue.

Carly gets along well with cats and dogs. Underdog Railroad Rescue, however, thinks she will do best in a home without small children. Her vaccinations are already up to date, and she is spayed. Have no fear: She's already house-trained.

Notes from Carly:

My name's Carly, but my foster mom calls me Charlie because she says I remind her of Charlie Brown's Christmas tree. Turns out I'm a wildly loving and fierce little street mama who can't wait to be someone's permanent lap clown. I am the silliest little cuddle muffin, contorting into all kinds of funny positions to get just the right scratches. And I have the sweetest little ant-eater tongue that I'll use to shower you with kisses.

Apply to adopt Carly today at Petfinder.

Sasha, German shepherd mix

Sasha is a sweet female German shepherd mix currently housed at Animal Aid Inc.

Sasha is the life of the party — she loves cats. She already has all of her shots, and she's spayed. She's mastered her house-training etiquette.

Here's what Sasha says:

I love playing tug-o-war with my toys, going for car rides and long walks (I have excellent leash manners) and following my special person around the house. Because of my past, it can take me a little while to get to know you and feel comfortable with you, but once I do, you'll never meet a more loyal best friend.
