Welcome PEPPER from Hempstead Shelter!

This beautiful girl is a total gem.

She is maybe a retriever hound mix? and she weighs 36lbs and is 4 years old.

She is sweet, gentle and so charming.

We met her yesterday when we got MIKA and BRONSON, and we just had to get her into our care today.

She went into a great foster home today, and she is settling in very well already.

This girl should have adopters lined up blocks long, so if you are looking for a medium sized young female dog, get in touch with us ASAP.

Good Morning from our newest duo MIKA and BRONSON.

First night and first morning back in a home after being at the shelter, and they are doing really well.

Big girl is happy and playful, and little man is already looking for attention and affection.

Both charming babies, with so much love to give!

Lucky will be the adopter who welcomes them into their heart and home!!

Welcome MIKA and BRONSON to For Our Friends!

This dynamic duo, 5ish yo female shep mix and 3ish yo chi, were stuck at Hempstead Shelter with no adoption interest at all for 2 months.

This is so common with bonded pairs.

We happen to love bonded pairs.

And this pair is special.

They had a home and their mom died

They are both sweet and good natured.

They have been through a lot.

We will let them acclimate and feel safe and loved, and then they will be up for adoption together.

They deserve the very best home, that's for sure.

Our wonderful ChiWeenie Brothers still need one forever home!

They are 11 years young, fully vetted and healthy.

STREAKER could pass for 5 yo, while WE**IE is more senior, especially given his vision impairment.

They are both full of love and sweetness and want to spend their golden years with you.

Available for Adoption on Long Island or in Eastern Queens Only.

Foster Needed for MIKA and BRONSON!

This adorable duo still waits at Hempstead Shelter...

MIKA is 5/6 yo shep mix, BRONSON is 3 yo chi.

They came from same home, and lost that home when their mom died.

MIKA is super friendly and sweet, and BRONSON is more shy, but also sweet.

They need each other, and they need us to help get them out of the shelter.

We cover all costs - medical, food, supplies, grooming, etc.

Foster provides the love and day to day care while we search for a forever home for these deserving babies

Long Island or Eastern Queens Foster preferred.

Babylon Shelter is full. They need our help. Who will help us rescue some dogs by fostering? We cover all costs, fosters just provide the home and the love.

No joke, our shelter is full. Hardly 2 cages open as we start our day after 3 days of fireworks. We are rescue friendly, we have small and big dogs, cats & kittens, bunnies, please come on down if adoption is at all a consideration.

Yard Sale Success!

We had our yard sale this past Saturday, and we had a lot of doggie friends who stopped by.

And adoptable STREAKER top left and top right came out and met some folks who gave him cookies, too.

Thanks to all who help us with the sales!

We need more help with them, and we expect to do a couple yard sales in the fall, so please let us know if you can help.

Even just 3-4 hours makes a big difference for us.

Teamwork saves lives, come join our team!
