Adopted: Shay

Hi, my name is Shay and I am a very cheerful, loving, and adorable 8 year old Beagle! Quick Facts: Breed: Beagle Gender: Female spayed Age: 8 yrs old Size: 20 lb Good with… Dogs? Yes! Cats? Yes! Kids? Yes! History I, along with 3 of my Beagle buddies, lived a very traditional former life, as hunting Beagles. Our owners were a very nice older couple– we got to go on occasional rabbit hunting expeditions and we lived full-time in nice indoor/outdoor kennels. Our owners were super nice, but we weren’t indoor pets, so we weren’t exposed to lots of time with people, or all the ways of indoor living (like couches! And watching movies while having snuggle time!). One of our owners sadly passed away and the other has health issues and is not able to take care of us anymore. Three of us already found homes through CDR,…

Adopted: Rooney

Hi, my name is Rooney! I’m a beautiful, loving, and incredibly affectionate and deeply sweet boy! Quick Facts: Breed: Border collie mix (maybe mixed with spaniel)! Gender: Male, neutered Age: 8 years old Size: 55 pounds Good with… Dogs? Dogs? Yes, see below Cats? Yes! I am incredibly gentle with cats. Kids? 12+ years Background I hail from Vestal, NY where I was adopted from the Humane Society into a wonderful family in 2011 when I was 1 year old. I was so grateful to them and when I met my doggy brother, a Lab, we ran and ran, it was so much fun! They had 4 cats and I was great with them all too! I wasn’t OK with strangers and other dogs, though–they made me very nervous. Once I got to know people, I felt comfortable around them. I went to doggie school and worked with a trainer…

Adopted: Rufus

My name is Rufus and I am an awesomely handsome, loving, playful, fluffy, fuzzy dog! Quick Facts: Breed: Golden Retriever/Australian Shepherd/Chow Gender: Male, neutered Age: 4 years old Size: 55 lbs Good with… People? Yes! Dogs? Yes! Cats? Yes! Kids? 12+ years Bonus: Completely housebroken! Background: I arrived for the first time in the CDR foster program 2 years ago (at age 2), after my owners split up. Those folks had kept me in a small fenced in outdoor kennel and gave me almost no attention, care, or training, which had been a very sad life for a happy, exuberant, loving, and active dog like me. Luckily, a lovely semi-retired couple adopted me from CDR and that’s where I have been for the past 2 years. They loved me a lot, took me to fun clicker training classes, got me a needed hip surgery, and helped me with all of…

Adopted: Skippy

Hi everyone, my name is Skippy! I am a very sweet, affectionate, mellow, 6 year old male, neutered Schipperke mix! Quick Facts: Breed: Schipperke/Terrier mix Gender: Male neutered Age: 6 years old Size: 12 lbs Good with… Dogs? OK, but want to be your only dog! Cats? Yes Kids? 12+ Background: I came all the way from KY, where I was originally in a high-kill, very crowded shelter. I landed in that scary place when my former owner felt she was not able to care for me anymore. The shelter needed to make some space (aka put a bunch of us to sleep), so luckily a volunteer lady in the shelter told the great people at CDR about me. They had a place with a warm bed for me, and I was able to hitch a ride on the transport to Ithaca! Personality: Whenever someone hangs out with me, the…

Lily

We have very sad news. Our longest resident foster dog, Lily, who came to us in 2011, passed away last Friday from hemangiosarcoma, in the arms of her foster mom and dad, and with foster siblings Sammy and Elfie at her side. Lily was a good, good, good girl. Rescued from a high-kill shelter in KY, she joined the CDR foster care program when she was just 4 months old. She arrived to us with one of her ears half cut-off and with a fractured pelvis. And a fear of children of a certain height, and short, heavyset blonde women. Clearly, she had suffered something traumatic in her first months. But such a spirit she had! A pup who was more filled with love and humor, good nature and joy, you could not have found! Lily was all about fun-fun-fun, and kisses-kisses-kisses. 😊 But that pelvis fracture that she arrived…
