As most of you are aware, Fall harvest season is in full swing here in Central PA!

Tractors, Grain Carts/Wagons, Combines and more are on and sharing our roadways! Be sure to slow down, share the road, and give them time to get where they need to be! Farming accidents are something no one EVER wants!

The farming community is not only important in Juniata County, but all across America! Let’s all help them get their job done safely! – Safety 5 (L. Snyder)

Whoopie Pie is a 6 month old female. She is a Border Collie mix. She is around 35 lbs right now. She is a ball of fun! She is high energy and will need someone to work her brain. She can live with a cat who will set boundaries with her. She has displayed some separation anxiety. She becomes scared by bigger dogs at times. She like to show her herding behavior by nibbling on your feet and ankles. She likes to trip you as well since she is always by your feet.

** Whoopie Pie is in our care in Altoona PA. She is available for adoption. Each animal gets microchipped, 4DX tested, spayed/neutered and vaccinated. The adoption fee covers those costs. Adoption fees are listed on the application. An application must be filled out in order to visit with any dog or cat. They can be found on our website www.centralpahumane.org under the Adopt A Pet tab or at the shelter. Our animals are posted on Facebook and Petfinder when time permits. A Petfinder inquiry is not an application, and they may not be responded to. We can only accept so many applications for each animal. We do adopt out of state, but we cannot hold the animal. **

PA Kennel License #1333.

Meet Mazzy!

Mazzy was adopted from us in July of 2024 as a puppy. She was returned due to a change in lifestyle. Mazzy has grown into a beautiful girl. She’s about 60lbs and is a black lab mix. She is FULL of energy. She needs someone to exercise her. Mazzy is great with kids. She was scared of cats and doesn’t seem to know how to play with dogs (but wasn’t mean). She will just need to get used to playing and having fun!

We have some very important boots to fill!

Always wanted to be a part of a Fire Company, but didn’t want to run into a burning building? Performing vehicle rescue at a Motor Vehicle Accident scene not on your list of to-do’s? Still want to be part of a family-based community to make a HUGE difference in the community we serve, as well as be protectors over the department personnel at the scenes of the incidents we run?

Stop by the station on our duty nights — every Thursday around 6PM, reach out to a known member, or PM our page for more info!
