Any recommendations for dog adoptions? I've had dogs my whole life, moved to Philly last year and decided it was best to leave my 14 year old beach loving pups in Southern California with the parents. I miss having a dog and I'm looking to adopt a canine companion here in Philly. 

I've run into a lot of seemingly ridiculous and arbitrary red tape here in the city. I really don't understand the need to have to submit to an FBI background check, home check, $300 fee and donation of my first born and/or right kidney just to be approved to try to rescue a dog and no actual guarantee of being approved... 

Not looking for a brand new puppy. A 1-4 year old, 10-30 pound, terrier mix would be preferred. Any rescue organization recommendations would be appreciated!
