River

Quick Facts: Breed: Border Collie Gender: Male, Neutered Age: 1.5 years young Size: 50 pounds Good with… Dogs? Scared of them, sorry not so much! Cats? Nope, sorry! Kids? Too nervous, nope! Hello! My name is River and I am a beautiful boy who is full of energy! ** River is not a CDR dog but please fill out an application and it will be forwarded to his people!*** History I was born in Smyrna, NY to some backyard breeders. My parents were on site. I was only 6 weeks old when I went home with my new family, but they didn’t figure that out until we got home. At that point though, they were not about to bring me back–I was too cute, and the place I came from did not seem like a good place for any dog, let alone a puppy. I have been with the same…

Violet

Quick Facts: Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier Gender: Female, spayed Age: 8 Size: 58 pounds Good with… Dogs? Not in the home! Cats? Probably! Kids? Yes, all ages! Hello! My name is Violet and sometimes I think humans are lollipops that need to be licked down to the center! Other times I like to keep your feet warm by sleeping under the blankets! History I came from a small litter of puppies that all looked identical! I got adopted by a terrific couple, and was the only dog in the home for the first two years of life. When I was almost 2, I was in a very bad vehicle accident and barely made it out alive. So very scary and painful, but thankfully I got good veterinary care and help with rehabilitation and got to have my whole life ahead of me! I am in great shape now! I am…

Xena

Quick Facts: Breed: American Bulldog Gender: Female, spayed Age: 5 years old Size: 75 pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes! Especially male dogs, they’re my FAVORITE! Cats? Yes! Dog savvy cats are a-okay! Kids? Yes! (12yrs + just because of my size but I know how to be calm too) Hello! My name is Xena and I am a HUGE sweetheart! I’m a gentle giant (weighing 75lbs!) who LOVES to be spoiled! I’m part gentle giant, part princess! **Xena is not a CDR dog but please fill out an application and it will be forwarded to her people!*** History I was born in May of 2018 and the family who first had me didn’t have the time for a puppy so at no fault of my own, I landed at the shelter when I was just a couple years old. That’s where my awesome Mom found me! She adopted me in…

Bentley

Quick Facts: Breed: Golden Retriever (purebred?) Gender: Male, neutered Age: 18 months young! Size: 60 (ish) pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes! (but am possessive of toys!) Cats? Unknown Kids? Yes! 14+ Hello! My name is Bentley and I am a very friendly, exuberant, enthusiastic young Golden Retriever! History I was adopted as a puppy by my family, but circumstances have prevented them from being able to keep me. Luckily, Cayuga Dog Rescue was able to take me into their foster program, my former family was happy to surrender me, and the wonderful owners of the Bed and Biscuit Kennel were happy to foster me at their kennel! I am very happy, everyone is being so nice to me and I get to run and play in their big fenced yards like I always dreamed of being able to do! The only thing missing is a wonderful new family, but they…

Bruce

Quick Facts: Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier Gender: Male, neutered Age: 2 years old Size: 58 pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes! Cats? Some cats! Kids? Yes! 13+ Hello! My name is Bruce and I am a sweet and loving boy who loves to relax in the sun! History I was adopted from a foster home in Texas and brought to New York in July 2022 to live with my current family. I had been with my foster mom in Texas for ~2 months and before that I had lived in a shelter. My early life is unclear, but it’s left me with some anxieties that make it hard for me to live with young rambunctious kids. I’m extremely sweet and loving and my family loves me deeply, but I think I will thrive more in a house without very small kids. Personality I am 90% a cuddly couch potato! I…

Thea

Quick Facts: Breed: Doberman mix Gender: Female, spayed Age: 6 years young! Size: 65 pounds Good with… Dogs? Many! Cats? Nah, I’m too interested! Kids? 14+ Hi, I my name is Thea and I am an athletic, friendly, very good-natured and snuggly girl! History and Why I am Looking for a New Home I was adopted as a puppy by my current mom and have lived happily in my current home since. I’ve been a great girl, and have lived well with the male dog in my home, and also with the female dog in my current home until I came into heat. That was about 3 years ago, and since then, our fights have become more frequent, and more serious. Right now, I am recovering from wounds from the most recent fight and our mom has had to keep the other dog in a crate most of the time,…

If you are interested in either fostering or adopting him, please contact ROHAR via email at (sford@stny.rr.com) and they can send you an adoption or foster application!*** History My family has had a tough time financially and has tried very hard to keep me but cannot find housing that will allow me to live with them because I’m too big. I am two years old. Once I was rehomed and I ended up locked in a crate that was too small for me for too much time. Fortunately, my dad was…

Benny

I’m an easygoing hound dog who loves to bask in the sunshine! History I was found wandering the woods of Kentucky, landed in a rough shelter there but 3 years ago was transported to NY and adopted by my current wonderful, loving family. I’m a very calm, old-soul kind of pup in general, but my early life left with me some anxiety/sensitivities and I’m not a good fit to live with little kids. I’m so sweet and loving, and it breaks my parents hearts to have to find me a new home, but with a little toddler in the house and another on the way, we all know I’ll be happier and safer in a home without little kids that I…

No info about how she feels about cats. ***Snowball (aka Snowy) is no longer up for adoption, but she does need donations for her medical care. Due to her cancer diagnosis and prognosis, she will stay in her loving foster home (where she is ridiculously happy!) until the end of her life. See story below.*** December 23, 2021 Some months after we took Snowy into our foster program, our vet found more than half a dozen mammary tumors. Since each one had a 50% chance of becoming cancerous, we decided that it wasn’t right to adopt her out, knowing that…
