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.
Click on the DOG APP tab for our online 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.

JANE GOODBALL ! What a cutie! Her foster family tells us: Jane is the sweetest She runs like the wind even though she is a tripawd! (Jane had to have a leg amputated when she was brought to the shelter after being hit by a car) She is good with our dogs, seems to be on the submissive side, housetrained, and sleeps nicely in her crate overnight.
Now we must mention that Jane does present shy in new situations. What you see is not what you get with Jane on first meeting her. She needs someone patient who will give her time to settle. She is not going to cover you with kisses until she gets to know you, but once she feels comfortable you will see what a loving girl she is. Jane settled quickly in her foster home so we know she can do that again with her forever family and her foster mom will certainly help with lots of guidance. Treats are a great way to her heart! Jane is young, around 18 m and is medium size weighing approx 30 lbs. Jane 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 involved with caring for our rescue pets. |

Kim would love to have another doggie in the family to play with and kids would be a bonus too!
Kim is around 6 months old and weighs 48 lbs but still has some growing to do of course!
Kim has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative and spayed.

PATRICK PAWZE: Look at this handsome guy! He has a lovely wrinkly face! He is newly arrived in NY and his foster mom already tells us he is doing great. Gets along with dogs, loves all people big and small and doesn't mind the cold at all! No potty accidents so is probably well on his way to being able to say he is housetrained. He is young and has plenty of puppy energy so needs a family that is ready to continue his training. He is super smart and ready to learn some tricks too.
Patrick spent a month over the holidays stuck in a small kennel in the back of the shelter as there was no room in the adoption room to move him up. He was surrendered by his owner as they had too many animals.
Patrick is about 6 m old and weighs in the region of 25 lbs
Patrick has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heartworm tested negative and neutered.

Mom Julie Adopted
|
JEWELS (female), JUNIOR, JACKO (adoption pending) & JASPER are 4 of the most darling puppies you could ever hope to meet! They were born to Momma Julie after we rescued her from the shelter back in October. She was a little 'chunky' but it was a surprise when the vet called to say she was expecting! They were born in a foster's guest room and have been loved ever since.
The puppies are social butterflies who love all people and animals. Like all youngsters, they are busy and exploring everything so they need active families committed to puppy training. Another dog in the house would be ideal. We need to know you have a plan in place for training so these pups grow up to be good doggie citizens. They are around 9 weeks old and weigh approx 8 - 9 lbs. Julie was a medium size at 30 lbs so we think these pups will probably be medium size when full grown. Of course we have no idea who Dad was - he didn't hang around! Puppies have been vaccinated, (will need more), dewormed, microchipped, and spayed/neutered. We are asking for an adoption donation of $380 to help with the costs involved in caring for our rescue pets. |

CHERRY: Such a pretty, fluffy girl! She is a little on the chunky side so probably her previous owner gave her lots of treats and not many walks. But if you are the lucky family to adopt Cherry, you will be able to get her back on track! Cherry's foster mom tells us she LOVES attention and to give kisses. Doesn't pull on the leash. Doesn't chew anything she isn't supposed to. Can be a little bossy with the little dogs in the house but wouldn't mind being the only dog for she loves the attention and is a velcro dog wanting to be with her people. Sleeps in the crate all night and is house trained. She does like to jump up so would be best with no little kids that she might knock over though she does love kids. Cherry does have a lot of energy and is the kind of dog that needs a job to do. An active family would be ideal and even someone looking to play dog sports as we know Cherry would love that!
Cherry is around 4 years old and weighs in at a chunky 30 lbs. Cherry 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 involved with caring for our rescue pets! |

BOOFY SAINTE-MARIE: This pretty girl, with the impressive ears, was quite shy and reserved when we met her at Animal Control. She seemed so sad and having been at the shelter for 2 months she was getting depressed. Our volunteers took her out to the play yard and when she met another dog, she totally transformed into a happy, tail wagging, play bowing dog! Her foster family tells us she is settling in nicely! Loves to play, is good with dogs and their cat. She is going to make a great family dog!
Boofy is young, around 2 years old and weighs 40 lbs. Boofy 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 involved with caring for our rescue pets. |

MISS DUCHESS is a happy girl, friendly, affectionate, housetrained, good on leash and rides well in the car! Loves to play with toys, enjoys a comfy spot to nap; accompanying you on errands and going to stores is her favorite!
Her foster family has shared more info about Duchess. She is a great dog with a lot of potential but needs an experienced owner who can continue to work with her and make her even greater. She is best friends with same sized or bigger dogs and grownup humans. No kids or smaller animals/cats. Duchess loves to help me in the yard, patiently walks behind me for an hour while I mow the lawn. Her and I even vacuumed the house yesterday. A fenced in yard is a requirement in her new home as she loves to spend time outdoors too. Duchess sleeps throughout the night without issues but does love to be with her human during the day. Duchess spent weeks at animal control and quickly became a staff and volunteer favorite. Now she is in a foster home we have learned a lot more about her so please take time to read this bio before applying. Duchess is estimated at around 4 years old, and weighs a chunky 45 lbs. Duchess has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative and spayed.

ROXANNA: If you are looking for a dog that is out of the puppy stage - Roxanna is for you. Loves to be petted and loved on and she returns the same back to you too. If you have a toy box filled with doggy toys, she will be there picking and choosing which one she wants to play with next so be ready for a lot of doggy toys on your floor! Roxanna does love to be with her people and would prefer a home where someone is home a lot. We have found that Roxanna prefers the ladies for sure and would also be happier with no children to bother her.
Roxanna knows several commands like sit, stay, leave it, is house and crate trained and sleeps through the night on a doggie bed. She is not that good on a leash and has some reactivity so someone that is ready to help her with training would be great.

Roxanna has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heartworm tested/treated and spayed.

CUPPA: Oh boy, this guy has got the looks! He is adorable. Cuppa has been enjoying his time in a loving foster home while we find out more about him and what kind of family would suit him best! His foster mom tells us: He’s a work in progress and needs someone who understands shelties and is willing to work with some quirks. He’d do good in a home with other dogs. He’s still learning how to be a good dog and role models are helpful. No small children or cats for Cuppa please.
Cuppa is a young adult and has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative and neutered.

ADAM SITLER ADOPTED found himself surrendered to Animal Control when his owner decided he had no time to take care of him. Unfortunately we see that time and time again when people get a puppy and then after a while realize they don't want them anymore.

Our volunteers met him when the shelter opened up again for the New Year and fell in love with his sweet face and radar ears. He may present initially as a little shy but soon warms up especially if treats are involved.
