Arthur

Quick Facts: Breed: Pit bull terrier mix Gender: Male, neutered Age: 7-8 years Size: 56 pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes! Once I know them! Cats? Yes! Kids? Yes! (outside the home) Hello! My name is Arthur, and I love snuggling with my people! **forever foster…not taking applications!** Middle-aged, mostly-mellow, treat-loving, devoted family dog seeking a patient, understanding, dog-savvy person or family who will give me lots of cuddles, love and treats, and use positive-based training to overcome my fear of non-family people coming into my home.  (Cayuga Dog Rescue will pay for a trainer to work with us on my reactive behaviors so we can learn together.) History Arthur lived through a house fire and then was abandoned in the burnt out house. Understandably Arthur has anxieties about trusting new people and allowing outsiders to come into his home.  He can be very reactive (loud barking and/or snapping) when non-family…

Adopted: Ayla

Quick Facts: Breed: Yellow Lab/Great Pyrenees mix Gender: Female, spayed Age: 6-8 years young Size: 80 pounds Good with… Dogs? YES! Cats? YES! Kids? YES! 6 and over please! Hi! I am Ayla (it means “moonlight”), and I am adorable, sweet, and loving! History I am one of the lucky ones, because even though I’ve had a number of very sad losses, and also a lot of physical discomfort, I had a lot of love in my former life in rural KY. I was found as a stray puppy by a really sweet guy who lived on a farm. He kept me, loved me, and I had a fine life roaming around the farm with him all day long. Tragically, he died unexpectedly, which left me orphaned. His parents were able to bring me to live with them on their nearby farm, and they took good care of me for…

Yes! 6+ Hi, I’m Bella, which means beautiful in Italian, and everyone says that is the perfect word to describe my soul! History I was adopted by a wonderful human mom many years ago. We and another older, smaller dog lived together so happily and with so much love until our mom passed away 5 months ago. Her passing was the saddest thing ever. We didn’t have any place to go, so mom’s vet clinic boarded us while they searched for new homes for us. After 5 months of patient waiting, we both found places to go! I got to enter the CDR foster program and am now living in a wonderful foster home which is so much fun, I cannot stop smiling! There is a really…
