🚨🚨🚨ATTENTION ALL NEW YORK STATE RESIDENTS🚨🚨🚨

Please protect your pets! The National Weather Service has said pets exposed to this weather will likely perish. Help your neighbors and warn them as well. Please don't let these animals freeze! That's a cruel death.

IF YOU DO LEAVE YOUR PETS OUTSIDE:
NYS Ag and Markets Law 353b requires:
Any person who owns or has custody or control of a dog that is left outdoors is REQUIRED to provide them with structurally sound appropriate shelter being:
🚨INSULATED
🚨WATERPROOF
🚨LARGE ENOUGH TO ALLOW THE DOG TO STAND UP,
LIE DOWN and TURN AROUND

💕 Dogs are social and need to be with their people. 💕 Regardless of where you live, please do not leave your pets outside longer than absolutely necessary to take care of business in frigid weather.

‼️ And if you see an animal suffering in the cold, PLEASE REPORT IT to your local authorities!

***A plastic dog house is NOT appropriate shelter***
‼️BRING THEM INSIDE‼️

Yodel-eh-he-hoo❗️🤗
Do we have your attention now? 😆
This is Ben and he’s a yodeler. Ben is very good at entertaining the kennels singing the songs of his people, but he must go!
Ben was found as stray and never claimed, huge loss for whoever his people were. 🥺
He is around 4 years old, 50 pounds, seems good with kitties and enjoys the company of dogs. Ben had a meet & greet with children and he was a perfect gentleman!
You have to hear his cries to be free, swing in and ask to see Ben. ♥️ Open at noon today.

Ice & Hank need a home…again.
So many dogs and cats are born destined to a luckless fate and Ice & Hank fall into that category. Their bouncing around is just pitiful!
Ice & Hank were with us the summer of 2023 and due to unfortunate life events for their adopter, they’re back.
Ice (grey) is a 6year old female and Hank is a 3 year old male.
They are both super snugglers who love couch time and Ice loves being brushed.
Ice & Hank are crate trained and have lived with an elderly person with dementia, he also believes they can live with kitties.
Will someone PLEASE take them to their forever home? To be their LAST home?
Their adopter feels they will be fine separated but we are hoping to keep them together if they are lucky enough to have someone step up. They are big dogs who are no problem in a home.
Thanks for looking.

Toby came in as stray on March 2nd. That means nearly an entire year without L♥️VE❗️
Toby is about 5 years old and has the saddest eyes. 🥺 He weighs 85 pounds and is playful like a little puppy! He knows sit, stay, shake and is eager to please.
No kitties for Toby, we would require a meet & greet with your dog.
We don’t know why no one wants this big handsome man! 😩
When you adopt from a shelter it inspires others to adopt from a shelter. 🥰

Everybody gets a sardine or 3! 😋 Well, everyone except Nookie 🤮

This was our most fun treat yet they were drooling for it! 🤤🐟

This is the look of heartbreak. 💔
Darling Brioche had a meet & greet appointment and she was stood up. 😭
Bri was given her special bath and was pampered by her angel volunteer prepping to make her best impression. We brought her in on the sofa and told her today just might be HER day…She waited eagerly, gazing at the door as if she knew!!! And they never came. 🥺
We have an overwhelming feeling of rejection for her but this girl is so happy to be alive she will overcome! Onto the next whoever that may be! 🥰
Dogs have more soul, more heart, more love, more connection, more patience, and more softness than any human. If you ever whispered to yourself you are capable of loving her, here’s your sign!

Marvin thinks he’s constantly searching for love that doesn’t exist. We tell him to hang in there because his heroes are coming!😫
Marvin is an unclaimed stray. He was undernourished and just a little bag of bones. His riblets are no longer poking out, he’s all healthy now! ❤️ Marvin is about a year old, good with everything and needs to be shown he will never be hungry again. 🥺 If your pup would like a friend, bring them in to meet Marvin!

❤️❤️❤️ADOPTED ❤️❤️❤️
I’m listening closely for you to come in and say “we want to meet this one.”
I’m Winter, I am a stray dog with a story that someone knows but will never be told because my owner didn’t come for me.
I’m ready to write a new story and hopeful you want be in it. 🙏
Winter is a very affectionate lady, a short & stout 45 lbs., about 2 years old.
Winter came in with signs of neglect having a severe flea allergy that is healing.
Winter is a happy & friendly babe who we believe can live with kitties, meet & greet required with your dog. See you at noon! 😊

❤️❤️❤️ADOPTED ❤️❤️❤️
This handsome boy is Kurtis. Kurtis is uniquely different. He has a condition conected to his breathing which makes him sound like a chicken.🐓 He has been examined by several vets and no one can determine why he does what he does. It doesn't seem to slow him down in any way. He runs and plays just like any other 8mo old kitten. He is extremely affectionate, loves to be held, and is constantly under foot.
He is currently in a foster home with dogs and another cat. 🐶😽
Please send us a private message with your phone number if you are interested in Kurtis and his loving foster mom will contact you. ☺️

This just isn’t fair. 😩
Brioche came in back in September, a severe case of neglect. She had all your support and is grateful but now she needs a hero. 🙏
Brioche has been spayed and is ready to go home. Her need for TLC is not gone however. She still needs medicated baths, a special mousse applied regularly and ointment in her eyes. We are doing the best we can providing all the things but feel she won’t heal fully until she is in a loving, caring home with regular care.
Bri wants to be the queen of the castle and she deserves it.
No kitties for Bri, meet and greet required with your pups.
Please don’t let her down. 🥺

❤️❤️❤️ADOPTED ❤️❤️❤️
This is typical of how a dog reacts when they are petrified from abandonment. 😢
Spot was bedding down in the solar field in Deerfield eventually traveling over 10 miles to Poland where he was tired and gave up.
Spot was fending for himself for weeks-alone, scared & hungry at only 8 months old!
His owners were identified and when Spot was safe, they declined taking him back and that is great news! He can now live his life loved and appreciated. 🥰
Thank you Andy and his son who handled Spot with care that day. Our Herkimer County DCO’s are the best group and we are thankful for their dedication and compassion.
Our giant puppy Spot is accepting applications. Let’s show him a lifetime of love and the best care!

ME HOY MINOY❗️ DoodleBob 😆
DoodleBob is a 2 year old unclaimed stray. He has suffered some neglect in his short life missing an eye! 🥺 It doesn’t appear to hurt him or affect him in any way and has healed itself not requiring any attention.
DoodleBob weighs 55 pounds and we believe can live with kitties.
You can meet this friendly dude at noon Saturday & Sunday. 😊
***Same dog…before and after a clean up to examine his eye. 🐶
