DESCRIPTION
Meet Abigail (Abbey): Abbey is a 1 year old (as of May 2026) hound / shepherd mix that weighs about 48 pounds. Abbey was surrendered by her owners because they didn't have enough time for her. Abbey is currently being fostered in the Lancaster, PA area and she can't wait to meet her forever family!
Abbey is a very sweet and loving girl! She is fun, active, and high energy. She loves going to the dog park and chasing and tussling with other pups. Abbey travels well in the car, walks well on a leash and is both crate and house trained. She loves to snuggle, is great with kids, and just loves being with her people! Abbey sleeps through the night and is a very trainable dog.
We would love for Abbey to have a home with a fenced in yard so she can play freely. Abbey is up to date on her shots and is spayed. If you are interested in adding a playful and snuggly friend into your life, please go to Charlie's Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application.
