(fostered with cat now and he is curious & respectful but she hides too efficiently for him to engage) Kids? We think so! 8+! History Meet Baba Voss! If the name leaves you scratching your head, check out the TV series “See.” Voss has been sight-impaired since birth. He can see some shadows and more out of one eye vs. the other. You’d never notice unless you were looking for this! We rescued him from a shelter in rural NC, where the amazing shelter staff advocated against his being euthanized. He was unlikely to find an adoptive home there, but we knew we’d be able to find him a great home in the Ithaca area! Personality…

My name is Brook and I am the most adorable, friendly, playful puppy you could find! ***Brook is not a CDR dog and has not been evaluated by CDR. Willow’s Wings Animal Sanctuary and Rescue, near Binghamton, NY will make all decisions regarding her adoption.*** History, Personality and What I am Looking for in a Forever Home I was adopted as a small puppy by a fine person. I had a seizure and they started me on the proper medications, but that required follow-up bloodwork and they didn’t have the money for that so they stopped my medications, and then I had another seizure. Since they didn’t feel able to provide the ongoing medical care that I need, they very kindly surrendered me to Willow’s…

My name is Niu Niu, and I am the most adorable, smart, sweet dog around! History I was born in a breeder’s home in Maryland in Jan. 2017. My mom and dad brought me home when I was 2 months old. I stayed with my family in Philadelphia for 2 years and then moved to Corning in 2018. I shared lots of golden days with my family and there were almost no bad memories. I have to leave them because my little human brother starts to have skin rashes frequently due to my hair. Personality I am a smart girl as I learned quickly during my obedience training in the puppy school. Now I understand the commands like “sit” “turn around” “high five” “stay” etc.…

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…

Adopted: Harper

Quick Facts: Breed: Pitbull mix Gender: Female Age: 7 Months old Size: 39 pounds (and growing!) Good with… Dogs? Yes! Cats? Yes! Kids? Yes! Hi I’m Harper, I love all people, new friends and old, men and women, children and seniors! History My background is sad. I was probably born with demodectic mange (the kind of mange that is not contagious to people or other animals). I had no medical treatment and was kept in a bathroom itching like crazy for months. This created a lot of infection and wounds on my skin and I had no relief. I was also very malnourished/super skinny and dehydrated. I got rescued and my rescuer immediately took me to the vet hospital, and they kept me for 3 days in order to get me stable. I am so grateful for that! But THEN…things got even better! I got to come home from the…

My name is Willow and I love hiking with my person and playing with other dogs! Maybe I can join your pack? History I was found on Craigslist! My mom was a breeding mom of purebred hunting dogs, but she accidentally got pregnant by a Black Lab neighbor dog. I was one of eight puppies and lived outside in a kennel during a treacherous summer of storms. I wasn’t handled much and may have been a low pup on the totem pole with not enough access to food and water, as I didn’t really trust people when I was adopted and was very concerned about access to resources. My family has worked hard with a wonderful positive trainer to help me…
