This dude is rather picture-perfect, don’t ya think? Say hello to Photograph, a 2-month old, Labradoodle/German Shepherd mix who is a fluffy mound of cuteness.

A quintessential family dog, Photograph is terrific around other dogs, kids, and adults. He is happy, playful, and cuddly. Give Photograph a toy and watch him go! He is easy to entertain, eager to please, and so much fun to hang out with.

Photograph is still too young to be leash walked, but as soon as he has all his shots, he’s gonna the outdoors. Adaptable and calm, Photograph seems unfazed by loud noises or other dogs’ barking. On the occasions he’s been on a subway, he just falls asleep. Gnight! Zzzzzzzz….

When Photograph isn’t busy playing tug-of-war with a rope or gnawing on a chew bone, he loves being pet and carried around. He actually thinks he’s a lap dog, which works for now! But this silly guy is eventually gonna get a lot bigger! ;-) Photograph would make a great addition to any person or family looking to welcome an upbeat beautiful puppy into their lives.

Give a warm welcome to Maria, an adorable 2-month old, 11-pound (as of 3/22) Redbone Coonhound mix who is super sweet, friendly to everyone, very cuddly, and as playful as can be.

Maria is a big fan of toys, but is somewhat partial to the squeaky ones which she finds totally irresistible. She loves to horse around with other dogs and she’s lovely around humans of all shapes and sizes, including young children.

Maria has been working on her housebreaking skills and is making excellent progress. She uses p*e pads when necessary, and her leash-walking manners are very good. Maria seems to enjoy the outdoors, and is especially fond of fenced-in yards where she’s free to romp, roam, and run around.

When Maria is finished playing, she turns into a total snuggle-bunny. She loves being pet, she lives for belly rubs, and she will never refuse the offer of an ear massage. If you want to get Maria’s attention, treats are a sure way. In no time at all, she has mastered the commands come and sit, and is capable of learning so much more.

If you’ve been waiting for that one special puppy to come along, Maria might just be it. She’s solid gold, in both color and personality! And how cute are her little white booties?

Meet Shimmer!

Shimmer is a 2.5 month old Beagle/Collie mix with a big personality packed into her tiny frame! The smallest of her litter, she more than makes up for it with her outgoing and playful nature. With her stunning green eyes and adorable freckles on her nose, she’s an absolute heart-stealer. 💚

Shimmer is full of energy, always ready to play with toys, romp around with other dogs, and explore the world. She adores cuddles, belly rubs, and treats and is happy to soak up all the love she can get from kids, adults, and even seniors. While she’s still a young pup, she’s already puppy pad trained and house trained, making her an excellent companion in the home.

She loves the outdoors and is eager to discover new things, but she’s still too young for leash walks. While she does bark occasionally and sheds a bit, she has no bad habits—just pure puppy joy! She’s also a fantastic traveler, ready to go wherever her new family takes her.

If you’re looking for a fun, friendly, and affectionate pup who will bring endless joy to your life, Shimmer is the one! 💖🐾

Meet Daniel!

Daniel is a 4-month-old, 4.4-pound (as of 3/15) long-haired kitten with the fluffiest tail and an equally fluffy personality waiting to bloom. Initially shy due to his early life on the streets, Daniel has made great strides in his foster home and is learning to trust and enjoy affection.

With a little patience, he will surprise you—rolling over for belly rubs and happily accepting gentle pets. He has a soft spot for Temptations treats (bribery works wonders!) and loves playing with feather wands and scratching posts.

Daniel has been raised with his littermates and has that protective big brother energy, always looking out for his sister. He hasn’t been tested with dogs or children yet, but he does well with adults, men, women, and the elderly.

This fluffy gentleman is litter box trained, enjoys brush time, and is ready for a loving home where he can continue to build confidence and show his sweet, affectionate side. Could you be the one to give Daniel his happily-ever-after?

🐶💔 Urgent: Bonded Pair Needs a Home! 💔🐶

Meet Lily & Peaches, an adorable 4-year-old bonded pair who need a place to go by March 21. Their owner is losing their home, and these two sweet girls need a foster home.

A little bit about them…. Why adopt only one adorable dog when you can take home two? Introducing Lilly, a 4-year old Yorkie/Chihuahua mix and Peaches, a 4-year old Chihuahua/Spaniel/Shih Tzu mix, a bonded pair of pups and the absolute best-est of friends. Like two peas in a pod, these gals have similar personalities: Loving, snuggly, sweet, and sassy.

Equally charming, Lilly and Peaches get along beautifully with humans, as well as other dogs. Lilly is the more energetic of the two, and Peaches more prone to laziness. Lilly likes to go for walks, play fetch, and hide her favorite ball, while Peaches prefers lounging around inside the comfort and safety of her own home. They are both fully housebroken, pad trained, and crate trained. As long as they have each other, they’re super well-behaved and fully cooperative.

Master cuddlers, both girls are extremely affectionate and love being pet, scratched, and caressed. They love treats, they’re good eaters, and they respond to the commands sit, stay, down, and touch. Lilly and Peaches usually only bark in response to loud noises, but they’re otherwise generally quiet. With their swinging single days behind them, Lilly and Peaches’ ideal environment would be a home outside the city limits, where they can enjoy a more peaceful, serene, suburban-like existence. Welcome to middle age, ladies! ;-)

Special in their own unique way, Lilly and Peaches depend on each other, as much as they rely on the humans that care for them. Like twins, these two make quite an incredible pair! What a gift it would be to give these furry ‘lil munchkins a warm, welcoming home of their very own. Up for the task? You won’t regret it!

Hot diggity dog, what have we here? Meet Christine, a 9-year old, 9-pound Dachshund mix who is the cutest ‘lil angel dog everrrr!

Christine adores all humans and all dogs. She is one of those adorable, lovey-dovey cuddle-bugs with low-key energy and an amazing personality to match. There is nothing this girl doesn’t like. She loves snuggling, walks, treats, being pet, being held, car rides, and companionship. She is more lazy than playful, but she definitely has her energy spurts. Christine also enjoys romping around with other dogs.

But for a few minor accidents, Christine is housebroken and pad trained. She barely sheds and barks only occasionally. Being on the submissive side, Christine shares her possessions with ease and never ever starts trouble. Her motto is: You want it, you got it!

Easy to please, Christine is appreciative of the smallest of gestures. She is motivated by food and affection, and will be there to greet you the minute you walk through the door.
This lovely lady seems to know how to both give and receive love. Now that she’s a senior, all Christine wants and deserves is a warm, welcoming retirement home where she can live in peace and love with all her heart. And what’s in it for you? A frosty-faced, sweet sausage dog you’ll wanna eat up every single day!

Meet Kai! 🐾

Kai is a 4-year-old, 12-pound Maltese/ Yorkie with a heart full of love and a cuddly personality! This little guy was found by a kind-hearted Good Samaritan who searched for his owners but had no luck. Now, he’s looking for a forever home where he can be cherished!

Kai is an affectionate pup who loves belly rubs, cuddles, and spending time with his favorite humans—especially women, as he seems to respond best to them. He enjoys the outdoors, going for walks, and being around people of all ages. He gets along well with both dogs and cats and enjoys companionship.

When it comes to food, Kai has a big appetite and loves treats! However, he doesn’t always like to share his toys. He’s house-trained and puppy pad trained but not crate-trained. Kai walks well on a leash and is overall a calm, low-to-moderate energy pup who enjoys lounging around but is always up for a good walk.

Kai would do best in a patient and loving home that respects his boundaries around food and toys, and continues to help him feel safe and secure. If you’re looking for a sweet, cuddly, and loyal companion, Kai might be the perfect match for you!

Are you ready to give Kai the loving forever home he deserves? ❤️

Glad to meet ya! Name’s Tigger, T-I- double guh-er. That spells Tigger! ;-)

Tigger is a 10 month old brown tabby cat who has no association with the Winnie the Pooh character…but hey, this Tigger bears a lot of the same traits: Confident, curious, fun-loving, and full of energy.

Playful and sweet, Tigger has a grand old time horsing around with other cats and playing with his toys. He is sweet and affectionate toward humans, and when he’s in the mood for romance, he likes being pet and cuddled with. Chin scratches are ALWAYS appreciated!

Tigger is litter-pan trained, he’s got an excellent appetite, and he has a particular fondness for treats. For a tiny little kitty, Tigger is exceptionally well-behaved. He’s naturally got plenty of energy, but he’s also calm and gentle. A purrrrfect blend!

If you’re looking to share your home with a fabulous feline, Tigger is ready to bounce into your life with a positive attitude and make every day more enjoyable!

14/03/2025

Shiver is a giver! This 12 week old, 11-pound Beagle/Collie mix is generous with love, affection, playfulness, and glee. And he’s pretty darn adorable in the looks department too!

Smart and attentive, Shiver is quickly learning the do’s and dont’s of potty training. He’s still too young for leash walks, but he enjoys the outdoors and being one with nature. He uses p*e pads while he’s indoors, and he is becoming more and more comfortable in his crate. Show him a treat and he’ll listen even harder! Good boy, Shiver!

Shiver adores humans of all ages, as well as dogs and cats. Even though he’s a very young puppy, Shiver displays a gentleness about him that is super sweet and really special. He loves to play, and he loves to cuddle. Ropes seem to be his favorite toy, as well as anything else he can gnaw on.

Easy-going, silly, and upbeat, Shiver is great in a car and welcomes adventure. This lad has still got a lotta growing up to do, but if you’re in the market for a new, fabulous, furry companion, Shiver is up for the job!

What a soft snuggly fluffernutter this boy is! Introducing Eminence, or Emmett for short, a 3-year old, 60-pound Great Pyrenees/Collie mix who is even MORE gorgeous in person, and has an absolutely amazing personality to match!

Fully housebroken, Emmett knows where and when to do his business and does not have accidents inside the house. He is the type of dog who would MUCH prefer to freely wander around in an enclosed backyard as opposed to being leash walked. Hey, strolling down city streets is not for everyone, and this country bumpkin would be much happier in a suburban setting with grass, trees, bushes, and room to roam.

Emmett gets along well with everyone, including kids and other dogs. He doesn’t interact all that much with his canine companions, but he has no issue coexisting with them. Protective, loyal, and alert, Emmett carefully looks after both his humans and his stuffed animals. He is constantly checking in on his people, either by licking their hands, leaning up against them, or trying to get as close as possible to their faces. You will never feel alone with Emmett by your side!

Treat motivated and eager to please, Emmett isn’t fussy when it comes to food and he always responds to the command sit. A true people dog, Emmett isn’t terribly interested in toys or games, but is instead quite content just quietly hanging out at home with you. Given the chance, this big furry fella would crawl right into your lap, if he could somehow manage to fit. A total lover boy, through and through!

Emmett is a special soul who deserves a loving home to match his needs. If you think he’d be a good fit for you, well then…this magnificent creature can be yours!!!

12/03/2025

Rascal might have been named “Rascal” by her previous owners but she’s really more of a Buttercup, or a Rosie or a Daisy! This sweet, gentle, and well-behaved girl is 9 lbs. and is estimated to be between 13-14 years old...although she didn’t get THAT memo!

For anyone looking for or open to a vibrant and with-it senior, this is your gal! Rascal is a happy girl who loves life!

Rascal loves her multiple daily walks around Central Park and the NYC sidewalks and actively enjoys checking out the goings on and other dogs. She will often stop to watch other dogs running around the green or will look up curiously at a passerby or just enjoy the scenery and sunshine.

She’s excellent on a leash and light on her feet. She’s a lovely walking companion and has great manners! And don’t underestimate her size and age with regard to sp*ed as she can certainly keep up with a moderate New Yorker’s pace!

Rascal is excellent with other dogs. She’s currently in a home with 3 chihuahuas (one 12-year-old (as mentioned), one lively 10-year-old and one 11-year-old).

Rascal LOVES people! She follows her foster humans around the apartment from room to room; she loves human company and wants to be included. Once convinced that the humans aren’t moving from a certain room for a while, she will get on her doggie bed and go to sleep. She enjoys being carried and she might even particularly enjoy being carried supine like a baby especially if getting a belly rub at the same time.

Rascal knows when it’s time for bed and sleeps through a full night without fail. She is compliant and allows clothing to be put on her without any struggle. She is an excellent travel companion (she was fine traveling on the subway and in a cab and stays put in her doggie bag).

Rascal is hoping to find a forever family who will give her all the love and treats she deserves and hopefully that is you! Truly, any person would be lucky to have her!

Stinky is the absolute most perfect gentleman everrr….who by the way, does not emit any odor or stink at all! That’s just his silly name! This 11-year old Dachshund is all about love, peace, joy, and kindness.

Housebroken, pad trained, and terrific on a leash, Stinky is well trained, polite, and calm. He thoroughly enjoys the outdoors, and is equally content to hang out at home, lounge on his bed or plop down next to his person(s). Stinky is a very affectionate fellow who loves belly rubs, head pets, and cuddling in real close. Warm and friendly, Stinky is fabulous around humans of all shapes and sizes, as well as other dogs. Everyone who meets him is instantly smitten!

Stinky has a good appetite and has a particular fondness for treats. He has no issue staying home alone and is not at all destructive while doing so. He only barks when the door bell rings and he greets all those who enter with a smiling face and a wagging tail. Not exactly watch dog material! ;-)

While generally mellow, Stinky still has pep in his step and a playful spirit. He’s like a fine wine…aged to perfection! And he provide loving and loyal friendship to anyone seeking the companionship of a sweet delicious wiener dog!

Holy gorgeousness, those baby blue eyes will get ya every time! Say hello to Magic, a 1-year old, 38-pound Labrador Retriever/Husky mix with intoxicating good looks and a personality to match. This sweet doll-face is the full package…and THEN some!

Magic is fully housebroken, crate trained, decent on a leash, likes the outdoors, and knows a few commands. She’ll do anything for a treat, so teaching her new words and skills should prove to be fairly easy and very rewarding. She is smart, attentive, and trusting…and you can pretty much anything to her while being met with warm gaze and a wagging tail.

Playful and upbeat, Magic loves toys, games, people, and other dogs. She is happy ALL the time and her spirited nature is contagious, making those around her very happy too! Magic is super affectionate and no amount of petting, scratching or cuddling is too much for this lover girl. Magic lives in the moment, she rarely barks, and she seemingly has no fears. What an amazing gift!

Magic is…well, simply put, magical, and whoever adopts this fluffer is in for the treat of a lifetime!

Meet Sail!

Sail is an 11-week-old, 9.5-pound (as of 3/6) Beagle/Collie mix with a fun-loving, adventurous spirit. This outgoing, friendly, and silly pup lives up to his name—he’s always ready to “sail” through the air with excitement! Whether it’s running, jumping, or playing with his dog friends, Sail is full of energy and joy.

He absolutely loves cuddling, playing with toys, treats, and being petted. Sail is great with kids, adults, seniors, and other dogs, making him a wonderful fit for any loving home. While he hasn’t been tested with cats yet, he’s such a friendly and adaptable pup that he’d likely do well with proper introductions.

Sail is already puppy pad trained, and while he’s too young for leash walks, he’s learning quickly. He barks, sheds, and has no bad behaviors or resource guarding tendencies—just a happy, playful puppy with a heart full of love!

If you’re looking for a fun, energetic, and affectionate companion, Sail is ready to set course for his forever home!

Give a warm welcome to Stacy, a friendly 9-month old, tiger-striped stunner with eyes the color of emeralds.

Stacy gets along well with humans, dogs, and other cats. She is a good eater, a solid napper, and litter-box trained. Playful and upbeat, Stacy loves scampering around the house, playing with toys, and finding silly objects such as hair ties with which to amuse herself. This frisky feline can make a game out of just about anything!

Extremely affectionate, Stacy lovvvves receiving pets, scratches, massages, and cuddles. When she’s hungry, she’ll let out an adorable little meow to remind you it’s mealtime. Stacy is very engaging, but can also be fairly independent, making her super easy companion to live with and care for.

Stacy is 100% ready to settle in to her forever home. If you’re a cat lover, you’re going to go pawsitively bonkers over Stacy!
