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.
NEIL DIGMOND If you want a sidekick who is adorable, curious and friendly and wants to have all the adventures with you, Neil is your guy! He would love to have playmates, human and / or dog. He is very food motivated and already learned sit, come and down commands. He's a go-with-the-flow kind of guy looking for a family that can give a serious snuggle. Neil is very happy playing and lounging with children as well as adults.
He is around 5-6 months old and weighs around 25 lbs, but of course has some growing to do. There is no information on his parents, so we can't make a guess as to size when he is fully grown. Neil has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and neutered. We are asking for an adoption donation of $380 to help with the costs involved with caring for our rescue pets. |
LUNA After a little TLC, Luna is looking and feeling like royalty! What a gorgeous girl! Our volunteers first rescued Luna when she covered in all kinds of muck and matted fur at animal control. Luna is a sweet girl, very friendly and well socialized. She is happy to make friends with everyone. Her foster mom says she is settling in fine, sleeps in the crate quietly overnight but does whine a little when she has to be crated while she runs errands.
We were told that Luna is used to having a constant companion at home as her previous owner was disabled. We think an adult only (or with older children) family that is home a lot would be best for Luna as she adjusts to her new life. We don't know her breed but clearly she is a spitz-type mix and her coat will need some regular grooming. Luna is young, around 18 months and weighs in the region of 30 lbs. Luna 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. |

HASHBROWN is a petite little cutie that was very lucky to get scooped by PPR, as she was in very neglected state, both physically and mentally when rescued. Volunteers worked with her and had her matted coat shaved so she could look and feel her best. She will need an understanding and patient owner to help her gain the confidence and skills needed to thive- as the heart is a little harder to clean up than the coat. Hashbrown enjoys the company of other dogs and learns alot of her canine companions. We think its important that she has a doggy sibiling in her forever home to help show her the ropes. Hashbrown recently started taking training classes with her foster mom and is doing well in school. A forever family that is comfortable with picking up and continuing the training established with her foster would help her feel the most comfortable and safe during the transition. Hashbrown is a young adult, around 1-3 years old and 15-20lbs- she 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 of caring for our rescue pets.
Our Stunning "Seniors"
JAX EARSLEY was all ears when we told him we would help find him a new family! What can we say, he was simply EAR-ristible! Jax was previously adopted from the shelter, but years later his family decided they just didn’t have time for him anymore, so sad!
His foster parents tell us that Mr. Jax Earsley is a wise kind older gentleman, who appreciates the finer things in life, like soft food, cuddles, & a soft blanket to sleep under with his favorite people. He likes to be outside and explore. He enjoys laying in the sun until he needs the A.C. He takes a little time to warm up, but he has the cutest lil butt & tail wag. Jax is obviously on the 'chubby' side right now and his new family should have plenty of carrots and green beans on hand! Lots of walk and playtime will help get him back to a healthy weight! Jax is around 7 years old and weighs 17 chunky pounds. Jax has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative and neutered. We are asking for an adoption donation of $250 to help with the costs involved with caring for our rescue pets. |
SYCAMORE & BANTU
are two darling girls are a ready -made family looking for a warm lap to cuddle up on together. We try not to dwell on the past, but these gals have had their fair share of turmoil. Sycamore & Bantu were abandoned after hours at the animal control with little food and water. We think their "Chapter Two" should be with someone that can give them lots of love, spoiling, and show them how dogs are supposed to be adored! Sycamore is about 6 years old and weighs only 6lbs, Bantu is about 7 years old and weighs 10lbs. They are clearly bonded to each other and we think its essential they are adopted togther. We are also asking for no young children due their teeny size. They have been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative, and spayed. Their adoption donation has been graciously sponsored by Brunos Broken Buddies. An approved application is required for adoption. |

SHEEBA-ADOPTED Those of you that follow our rescue, know that we have a soft spot for the black dogs! So often overlooked at the shelter, we always try to help! Well, Sheeba immediately caught our volunteer's attention when we were visiting the pound! She is a petite girl, long legs and big ears! She is very, very sweet, on the shy side and submissive with other dogs. We know that once she gets into her new home, she will blossom and become more confident. She has had a rough few weeks, first being lost and then spending a month at animal control. She needs some love and spoiling.
Sheeba is young, around 8 months and weighs 30 lbs. Sheeba 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. |

MAISIE-ADOPTED is a a darling co-pilot missing her captain! She loves to give kisses, and was very sweet and loving to all our volunteers in Georgia that met her. Her New York foster mom says, "Maisie is a wonderful, loving doggie. She walks well on a leash, rides nice in the car, loves to snuggle, and gets along with my two dogs. She will be a wonderful addition to any family!" Maisie was picked up as a stray but likely had a home at one point as she was already spayed and micochipped. Since no one reclaimed her, she came with us! Maisie is young, we think around 2 years old and weighs in the region of 30 lbs.
She has been vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, heart worm tested negative, and spayed.
