All Creatures Big and Small Pet Rescue

All Creatures Big and Small Pet Rescue 501(C)3 non-profit pet rescue est. in 2003 to help adoptable pets in need in CNY & NNY
NYS Reg NYS Reg # RR067

All Creatures Big and Small is a 501(C)3 non-profit pet rescue founded in 2003 by Beulah Miller (a former licensed veterinary technician) and Marjorie McCann (an experienced SPCA volunteer) to help adoptable pets in need. With the help of some very dear friends and volunteers, such as Nancy Bishop (Secretary), we have been able to save over 900 animals and help decrease the pet overpopulation prob

lem in our area. Our pets come from various places giving priority to pets in Oswego and Jefferson Counties as well as local dog wardens who are only required to hold dogs for 5 days before having them humanely euthanized. Since our incorporation, we have been able to find loving homes for over 300 of these adoptable dogs in Oswego County saving them from euthanasia. In addition, we have also been able to find homes for over 1000 other needy pets over the past 10 years. We would like to thank the Dog Wardens for accepting our help and contacting us when they have an adoptable dog in need rather than taking the easy way out and having them put to sleep. We also receive pets from local dog pounds, private owners, other rescues and kill shelters. If you know of a pet in need, please contact us to see if we may be able to help.

🎉Congrats to this weeks cat adoptions🎉

🐱Pierre was welcomed into his new home this past week! This was actually the family who found Pierre in their garage and quickly rushed him to us to ensure he was safe and happy. Within hours they knew they wanted to adopt him once he was ready to go! Pierre joins 2 other ACBS kitties and is already spoiled rotten!

🐱🐱🐱Three kittens?! This family said heck yes!!! Mustard, Mayo and Ranch hit the jackpot this week when they were adopted together! Their new family is over the moon and everyone is adjusting well. They join an older kitty in the home and the family hopes he enjoys his new playmates!

🎉Congrats to all🎉

Foster to adopt home needed!

Everyone, meet Rocky! This sweet 1.5 year terrier boy is ~15 # and full of zing! When we took him in, we had heard that he had been crated with his brother (Bear) for the last year since his previous owner did not have time to train them. He came to us with matted, urine soaked fur, fleas and just seemed to know things were about to change for the better. Look at what a difference just a few weeks makes!

This little cutie is inquisitve, bold and will keep you laughing with all his terrier antics. If you're looking for a scruffy little dog to be a walking buddy, activity partner or squirrel watcher, Rocky may be perfect for you! This little guy has a zest for life and is ready to get his new beginning started in a real home!

Rocky has been in boarding since we got him in due to lack of space in our other foster homes. We would really like to get him into a foster or foster to adopt home soon so he can continue to work on his training and learn how much better life can be when you are in a real home.

If you've been looking for a special small dog, to warm your heart and home, share in some sunshine and return to love you give them, 10 fold, please fill out an application and ask about Rocky or one of our other special little Terriers! They will all need some work with housebreaking and training, but with a little time and patience, we are sure they will steal your hearts??

Due to his size, age and energy level, foster to adopt requirements are:

🥊Living within 80 miles of Adams, NY.
🥊Having previous/current pets in annually at a local veterinary office and up to date on vaccines as well as spay/neutered.
🥊Being able to bring him back to our vets office in Adams if additional care will be needed prior to adoption. After adoption, we recommend taking them to your current vet to be established.
🥊Rocky seems ok with likesized dogs but he has not been cat tested at this time.
🥊Homes with children 10 years and over would be best since we don't know his history, with children
🥊Willing to have current family members come to a meet and greet to meet the pet and be sure an acceptable match.
🥊Having time available to care for, socialize and start the training of a new pet.
🥊Applicants with a fenced yard will be prioritized, though it is not a requirement.

An adoption donation of $450 is being asked if you choose to adopt, but fostering is free and a vital part of our organization if you are not looking or able to adopt. He has had an initial vet check, is current on vaccines, dewormings and prescription flea and tick medications and have been neutered

New Intake! Foater to adopt home needed!

Everyone welcome Barbie! This local girl was taken in by a family after being dumped on a less traveled road. She stayed in the same area all day, likely waiting on her family to return and avoiding those trying to catch her. Once darkness fell, she willingly hopped in a car with a family returning to find her and made herself at home ever since. After several weeks of searching and contacting local dog controls, no one ever came for this sweet girl so the family decided to reach out for help.

Barbie looks like a Mini Goldendoodle mix and although she needs a few minutes to warm up, she likes attention from all those she meets. She is a playful girl that likes squeaky toys and did well with the dogs in her previous home. At 25 # and about 3 years old, she will be a great new addition for a lucky family. She does well in a crate and is working on housebreaking and leashtraining, but there is so much more we are still getting to know about her so we will update as we learn more. Barbie does have some hairloss in both of her sides that may be a result of an injury or flea allergy. She appears a little thin, but healthy and has now had her vet check, heartworm/ lyme screen, been started on heartworm/ flea/tick preventative and will be spayed prior to adoption.

Due to her size, age and energy level, foster to adopt requirements are:
🥀Living within 80 miles of Adams, NY.
🥀Having previous/current pets in annually at a local veterinary office and up to date on vaccines as well as spay/neutered.
🥀Being able to bring her back to our vets office in Adams for additional care prior to adoption. After adoption, we recommend taking them to your current vet to be established.
🥀Barbie would have to be dog tested prior to going to a home with other dogs
🥀Homes with children 10 years and over would be best since we don't know his history, with children
🥀Willing to have current family members come to a meet and greet to meet the pet and be sure an acceptable match.
🥀Having time available to care for, socialize and start the training of a new pet.
🥀Applicants with a fenced yard will be prioritized, though it is not a requirement.

She has had an initial vet check, is current on vaccines, dewormings and prescription flea and tick medications and will be spayed prior to adoption.

Update: Bear is now in a foster to adopt home

Everyone, we'd like to reintroduce you to Bear. This sweet 1.5 year terrier boy is ~15 # and always seems to have a smile on his face. When we took him in, we had heard that he had been crated with his brother for the last year since his previous owner did not have time to train them. He came to us with matted hair, urine soaked fur, fleas and very guarding since he had had little contact with people in his former life. Look at what a difference just a few weeks makes!

This sweet boy resembles some mythological creature from the past
with the bounce in his step, smile on his face and ears that go on for days. If you're looking for a dog with all the looks of a lop eared rabbit, bounce of a Tigger and energy of a terrier, our Bear may be perfect for you! (But really difficult to get good photos of when he is in motion lol)

Bear has been in boarding since we got him in due to lack of space in our other foster homes. We would really like to get him into a foster or foster to adopt home soon so he can continue to work on his training and learn how much better life can be when you are in a real home.

If you've been looking for a special small dog, to warm your heart and home, share in some sunshine and return to love you give them, 10 fold, please fill out an application and ask about Bear or one of our othet special little Terriers! They will all need some work with housebreaking and training, but with a little time and patience, we are sure they will steal your hearts❤️

Foster to adopt home needed!

Meet Galinda, a sweet Yorkshire Terrier girl that came to us recently from an overcrowded shelter in Kentucky. Once we saw her picture, and her painful, closed eyes, we knew she had to get her out of the shelter since dogs needing extra medical care are often the first to be euthanized.

Galinda is 6-8 years old and under 10 #. When she came to us, she went right to our vets office due to her eye condition. One of her eyes was ruptured at that time and our vet diagnosed her with canine dry eye (KCS). Left untreated, eyes can ulcerate and rupture leading to complete blindness. We weren't sure how Galinda would respond to treatment since she likely hadn't had any previously. To our surprise, she takes the twice daily medication in her eyes without a fight and has totally turned the corner. Although she is mostly blind from neglect in her previous home, we believe she can see some shadows and her once ruptured eye has healed over making surgery now unnecessary.

Despite all that she's been through, Galinda is still a very social and loving girl. She is housebroken and does well on a leash once she has had time to acclimate to her surroundings. She does well with the likesized dogs in the home but really could use a family to call her own now. This diamond in the ruff is ready to shine and we know if you meet her, you'll agree!

Due to her size and age, foster to adopt requirements are:
🩷Living within 80 miles of Adams, NY.
🩷Being able to provide a safe environment for her on a single level of the house without risk of her falling down a flight of stairs.
🩷Having a fenced yard for her to go in outdoors or being willing to leash her when outside at all times (she will not be able to be tethered outdoors).
🩷Being willing to provide her with twice daily eye medication, lifelong, to keep her eyes comfortable and safe from injury. The medication is ~$80 a tube, per month.
🩷Having previous/current pets in annually at a local veterinary office and up to date on vaccines as well as spay/neutered.
🩷Being able to bring her back to our vets office in Adams if additional care will be needed prior to adoption. After adoption, we recommend taking her to your current vet to be established.
🩷Likesized dogs in the home and cats should be ok due to her passive nature.
🩷Homes with children over 8 years old should be ok due to her current size, visual imparement and activity level
🩷Willing to have current family members come to a meet and greet to meet the pet and be sure an acceptable match.
🩷Having time available to care for, socialize and start the training of a new pet.
🩷Applicants with a fenced yard will be prioritized, though it is not a requirement.

An adoption donation of $450 is being asked for her if you choose to adopt, but fostering is free. She had her initial vet checks, is current on vaccines, dewormings and prescription flea and tick medications and she is spayed.
