Dogs available for Adoption in New York
All dogs are in loving foster homes in the Hudson Valley area.
We adopt out of that area but you must come to meet the dog (s) you are interested in.
We do not have a physical shelter and require an approved application to meet our pets.
Please submit an application so we can put you in touch with the foster family.
They have the pet in their home and can give you more information and arrange a meeting.
An approved application is valid for a year and does not commit you to adoption.
Volunteers who answer email do not have information on our pets and will direct you to put in an application.
The first step in the adoption process is to submit an application.

Remember:
A newly adopted dog experiences a lot of stress. They often need time to settle in and decompress in their new homes. When you bring your new pet home simply, allow the dog to rest when needed, undisturbed, and in an area of the home without the likelihood of anyone not being able to resist petting. Use the rule of three when bringing in a new dog into your home.
·The first three days, your new pet may feel overwhelmed and is trying to adapt to its new surroundings.
·The first three weeks, the dog will start to settle in, feel more comfortable, and realize that this is their home now.
·After three months your dog should be adapted to its new home.
Please be patient as your dog settles in - and keep them safe. Some of our dogs have been strays - they have left home once, we don't want them to do that again. We recommend a martingale collar with an id tag. Leash walk even in a fenced in area to start and work on the come command with lots of treats.
Beau
Bella
|
BEAU and BELLA are a pair like no other, round, happy and fun to be around. This middle aged duo found themselves abandoned at Animal Control after their owner passed away and no family member was able to step up and take them in. We saw their tail wagging adorableness on a video and made sure these two were out of harm's way. Beau and Bella are sweet, and are definitely used to car rides and walks. They can stand to loose a few pounds (Bella more so than Beau). They can be adopted separately, but if anyone would like to adopt both, we would be overjoyed for them.
Both are around 6 years old, Beau weighs 55 lbs, and Bella is a very chunky overweight 70 lbs. Bella and Beau have been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative and spayed/neutered. We are asking for an adoption donation of $250 each dog or $350 for the pair. |

QUANEE: What a cutie! He is now available for adoption after spending time in a foster home so we could best determine the right kind of situation for him.
His foster mom tells us: This little smiley fella is all about fun! He’s adorable and small and bossy! He loves, loves, loves to play. He would play fetch and tug all day! Quanee is a smart boy, does well with obedience training and learns quickly. He likes to go for walks and is good on leash. He ignores cats and is housetrained. He wants to be in charge! He’s looking for a home with someone who can set boundaries for him while also making him feel safe and secure. An adopter who has experience with bossy dogs and has the time and patience to continue to provide structure as he can be cranky when he doesn't get his own way! If you think you can provide Quanee with the environment he requires, please put in an application and we can put you in touch with his foster mom for more information. Absolutely only older respectful kids in the home. Quanee is around 2 years old and weighs in the region of 15 lbs. He has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative and neutered. We are asking for an adoption donation of $380 to help with the costs involved with caring for our rescue pets. |
JOAN PAWFORD is just the cutest and sweetest girl around! She is very loving, happy and friendly! Joan loves, loves, loves treats and is happy to sit for them! She is playful and loves her toys! She may be an older girl, but with her 'frosting' maybe that is making her look older than she is! She was found as a lost dog and spent Christmas and New Year in a small crate hoping her family would come find her.
The shelter aged her at 8, but we don't really know. She certainly doesn't act like a 'senior'.
Joan weighs 11 lbs.
Joan has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative and spayed.
We are asking for a grey muzzle adoption donation of $250.

MILES JOSEPH BARKLEY! Miles is a happy boy who is smart (knows how to sit, stay and hold a command if food drops). He enjoys other dogs, and going for walks. He’s playful and fun loving, a little nervous in new situations but soon warms up. Unfortunately Miles lost his home when his mom had some severe injuries and was no longer able to care for him. He was loved so much and it was a hard decision for her. We assured her we would find him a wonderful new family that will love and care for him as much as she did.
Miles is young, around a year and weighs 38 lbs.
Miles has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative and neutered.

She has a pretty black/brown/merle looking coat! Adorable!

ROSA BARKS is just the sweetest little pumpkin once she gets to know you. Her foster mom tells us: Once over her initial shyness, Rosa blossoms into a super playful little dog. She has plenty of energy! I’m not sure she is a senior! She walks on a leash but prefers to run and play in the yard. She is great with other dogs and like most chihuahuas has no fear of putting a dog many times her size in his place. She is learning to go potty outside but sleeps through the night in her humans bed without accidents. She would love a family that enjoys playing with her or has another dog for companionship.
Rosa is a senior and weighs just 8 lbs. She lost weight during her stay at Animal Control so she needs some TLC. Rosa has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heartworm tested negative and spayed. We are asking for a senior adoption donation of $250. |

STEPHEN PAWKING is a darling little guy that is definitely on the timid side. He wasn't a happy camper during his stay at the shelter but did well once we got him out of his small cage and wanted to be pet. Stephen was a stray so we don't have a lot of information on him. He is now in a foster home and his foster mom tells us he is quite skittish. He is shy of new situations and a quieter, less busy home would suit him best with no little kids. Stephen has been though a lot of change from being a lost dog, then finding himself in the shelter, and then transport to NY. He will need a patient owner that will give him time to settle and earn his trust.
Stephen weighs 16 lbs and is young, around 18 months. Stephen has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative and neutered. We are asking for an adoption donation of $380 to help with the costs associated with caring for our rescue pets. |
Applications are good for a whole year so even if you don't see your new furry friend now, go ahead and get your application approved. Many times people wait until they see a dog listed and by then there could be approved applicants ahead.

BRADLEY COOPAW ADOPTED charmed the staff at Animal Control! Well that face is so adorably sweet and he is such a happy puppy. Our volunteers met him and agreed he needed to be a PPR recruit. He is very friendly, loving and playful. He loves to play ball, hasn't quite got the hang of bringing it back for you to throw but will amuse himself just tossing it around! Bradley's foster family tell us that he is good with other dogs, and although he is young, he can entertain himself nicely while mom is working from home. A perfect combination of energy and chill. Bradley's perfect match would be a family ready for the responsibility of a puppy who is super smart and ready to learn new things. What fun it will be to teach him tricks!
Bradley is an older puppy, probably around 9 months, and weighs 35 lbs. He has some growing to do, of course. Bradley has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative and neutered.

TODD ADOPTED (Tiny) is a pure love bug and a cuddle aficionado according to his foster mom! Todd presents himself as shy but once he gets comfortable he just wants to be with you and shower you with kisses! Tiny is the definition of a lap dog. He was turned into the shelter with his friend who was adopted. We think he would like another dog in the house to play with though that is not a requirement. Todd is good with respectful kids too. He is so cute when he makes himself comfortable by burrowing under the blankets!
Todd is around a year old and weighs 15 lbs.

AMARYLLIS ADOPTED This happy girl didn't mind a trip to the shelter - just an opportunity to make more friends, human and canine! If you are looking for the perfect hiking companion, Amaryllis is ready to hit the trails, no matter the weather! She is an incredibly smart young adult that needs someone that can keep her mentally stimulated throughout the day. Amaryllis has had some training and she hopes to find a home that can aid in her ability to learn and expand her knowledge. She’s also happy to crash at your feet and give you kisses in between playing with her dog friends and abundance of toys. Amaryllis would do best in a home without young children. Amaryllis is crate trained and house trained.

LOGAN BURKS ADOPTED is a happy guy, who was surrendered to PPR due to a child's allergies. He's obviously been well cared for and a loved family member. He knows several commands as he went to training classes when he was a puppy. He would be great for a family that is looking for an adult dog that is house and crate trained. His owner told us he likes to play but is a great couch potato - and he does snore!
Logan is around 6 years old and weighs 35 lbs. He is on the 'chunky' side and could lose to stand a pound or two!

OZZIE OSWALD ADOPTED is the kind of guy you can't help but love at first sight. Tall, dark and beyond handsome! Those eyes! OMG so soulful and soft floppy ears just right for stroking! This hound (maybe great dane) mix is as sweet as they come and good with other dogs, kids and the family pig. Ozzie is a sweet gentleman looking to join a new family who love the big guys!
Ozzie is around 4 years old and weighs in the region of 70 lbs

CHLOE GRACE ADOPTED
Sometimes a dog just speaks to you and asks to be rescued! Chloe is such a dog. With those beautiful eyes, she certainly caught our attention at the shelter and we immediately invited her to join our rescue. Chloe is a beyond friendly, super, super sweet, happy go lucky girl who is good with kids, but she does need a family ready to commit to some training as it's obvious her owners never did. She does like to collect shoes! Her foster family are working with her and say she is super smart, eager to please and has already learned to sit. She LOVES her doggie friends so would make a great playmate for some looking for a companion for their playful dog. She has enjoyed hiking with her foster family so we think she would be a great addition to an active family too. CHLOE is around a year old and weighs in the region of 45 lbs. Chloe has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative and spayed. We are asking for an adoption donation of $380 to help with the costs associated with caring for our rescue pets. |
CHARLES PAWIN:ADOPTED The cute factor is off the charts with his little nub tail too! His foster mom tells us he is such a funny guy and very delightful. He is super friendly and loved my friends. He is also quiet and well behaved outside He slept all night on the bed and didn't make a peep. He was surrendered to Animal Control along with Walter Pawin and they look to be related. Owner left no details on them unfortunately. The shelter aged Charles around 6 years old and he weighs 14 lbs.

WALTER PAWIN ADOPTED is a cutie for sure! Walter was not made available for adoption at animal control as he was not a happy camper. He needed rescue to get him out of there. When we learned he came from the same home as Charles of course we said yes -- we will take him too. His foster family tells us that he has settled in well and is a Velcro dog. He would be perfect for someone looking for a companion and is home a lot. He will be shy at first, but once he latches on to his “person”, he is super snuggly. He is housetrained and walks well on a leash. He does ok with dogs his size or smaller, but not bigger dogs. He loves to sleep on your bed at night and cuddles under the covers.
A quieter home without kids would suit Walter the best.
The shelter aged Walter around 9 years old, but we think he may be younger, and he weighs 16 lbs.

JAMIE LEE FURTIS: ADOPTED Her foster mom tells us: When you go to the dictionary and look up the word dog, Jamie Lee’s picture could be there! She loves car rides, love to take walks, knows tricks, sits for cookies, likes to snuggle, seems house trained. So far has no interest in our cat. Very sweet!
Jamie found herself at the shelter as her owners reported their landlord said she was over the weight limit for their apartment.
The shelter aged Jamie at 7 years, but we certainly think she seemed younger to us but as always it's a guess. Meet Jamie and decide for yourself!
Jamie weighs in the region of 50 lbs.
Jamie has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative and spayed.

KETCHUP! ADOPTED The EARS, the TAIL!! This guy is too cute! He found himself alone and frightened at the animal control - not a good place to be if you’re feeling scared, for sure. He likes to be the one who takes the lead in getting to know you - but once he knows you’re a friend, he’s a happy guy! He’s long like a dachshund who got mixed up with someone with up-ears and a corkscrew tail - unique in all the world! Ready to make the best of this new year!

MATILDA: ADOPTED! This pretty girl found herself surrendered to Animal Control right before the holidays. Her owners moved without her. It’s been a hard year for everyone, but this girl is hoping it’ll be all awesome from here on! She was just surrendered when we met her, so confused and sad, but we could see the sweet girl inside those mournful eyes. She’s a bit heavier than she should be, looks like she had puppies in her past. It’s time for her to get the wonderful family who will love her forever!

CLARA MARIE! ADOPTED What an absolute sweetheart! Clara can present as a tad shy in new situations but she is friendly and also loves playing with dogs of all shapes and sizes! Her playful nature has her chasing the cats, but she never hurts them. Clara is crate trained, and walks well on a leash. This amazing lady loves children too.
Clara was born with a congenital defect, and is missing some bones in a front leg. Her leg doesn’t cause her any pain, and rather than putting her through an unnecessary surgery we’ve decided that she’s perfect just the way she is. She will give you paw with her leg and she uses it for some support. She’s unique, and nothing in life has held her back!
Clara is around a year old and weighs around 20 lbs.
