I am the sweetest, most easygoing and affectionate fluffball ever! Quick Facts: Breed: Collie/Shepherd mix Gender: Female, spayed Age: 7-8 years old Size: 40 pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes! Cats? Yes! Kids? Yes! History I came from a crowded shelter in Kentucky where I was a huge staff favorite because I was so incredibly sweet, and so loving to everyone I met. I was surrendered by my owners and we don’t know why– I have never shown any signs that I was neglected or abused. I came to Ithaca with a few extra pounds, a beautiful shiny fur coat, and lots of happy kisses to give! Personality I’m a laid back girl with wonderful manners and lots of love. I love to snuggle with my people and explore the house and yard. I love squeaky toys and I like to walk around with them in my mouth, and if I…

Adopted: Callie

Hello! My Name is Callie! I love the outdoors and cuddling on the couch!! Quick Facts: Breed: Catahoula mix Gender: Female, spayed Age: 1 years old Size: 54 pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes! Cats? Yes…with dog friendly cats! Kids? 9+ Background I came from a very nice family who unfortunately did not have enough time to care for me. They told the person who runs the kennel/grooming place where I had been that they were going to have to surrender me to the local shelter, and that great person knew that would be awful for me. I boarded at her kennel once, and was so scared and depressed—not anything like my normal self. So, she contacted CDR and managed to get me into their foster program, which has been SUCH a relief! I have been staying with four veterinary students for the past few weeks, and have been learning so…

Background I was rescued from a puppy mill when I was young and have lived with my current family ever since!. Personality I am a super lovey girl. I love my people and show it with lots of affectionate cuddles and the occasional polite kiss. When I was younger and a little smaller I used to cuddle up every night in my mom’s arms like a baby. Now she says I am too big for that but I think she is wrong, I know…

Adopted: Remmy

Hi – my name is Remmy and I am learning how much fun it is to play! Quick Facts: Breed: Great Pyrenees mix Gender: Male, neutered Age: 1 years old Size: 52 pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes(best with females)! Cats? Yes! Kids? No experience yet! Background I was rescued from a high-kill shelter in Kentucky, and though the rescue folks have no idea about my past, they are pretty sure that people were not nice to me. I was sooooo very scared of people when I first arrived, but am confused and amazed to be finding out that people can be kind, and fun, and loving. I have been with my foster mom since Thanksgiving and I am slowly beginning to trust her, and this is a whole new, fantastic, amazing world for me. My foster mom says it is the most rewarding thing in the world to earn the…

Adopted: Lizzy

Hello! My name is Lizzy, and I am sweet, smart and silly! Quick Facts: Breed: Weimaraner Gender: Female, spayed Age: 13 years old Size: 55 pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes! Cats? No Kids? 12+ years History I lived with a sort of ok person for the first 8 years of my life, but I’d been neglected a bit and not fed enough, and generally not treated with the sort of love and care that all dogs long for. Luckily, my parents knew my former owner since I was a puppy, so knew me since then too! And then five years ago my then-owner finally realized that he wasn’t able to take care of me very well, my current mom and dad stepped up and rescued me! I’ve lived with them ever since, and things have been so much better!! The only vestiges of some of the pain of my former…

Yes, see below! We are not accepting applications at this time while we assess Sweetie Pie’s current medical condition. Background I was a homeless girl who got picked up and put into an over-crowded shelter in rural KY. Not a good situation! Luckily a kind rescue lady heard how sweet and wonderful I was, so she contacted Cayuga Dog Rescue and they invited me to join their foster program! Best. Day. Ever!! The sad news is that I am Heartworm-positive and had extremely painful ear infections in both ears, but the good news is that my Heartworm was in the very early stage (making it super treatable) and CDR said they would get me excellent treatment…

Adopted: Bracken

Hello! My name is Bracken and I am an adorable puppy! Quick Facts: Breed: Whippet/ Boxer Gender: Unspayed female Age: 7 months old Size: 40 pounds Good with… Dogs? Dogs? Yes Cats? Yes! Kids? Probably! History I was adopted when I was a little 12 week old pup by an awesome person I call “First Mom.” She did a great job taking care of me throughout my puppyhood, taking me everywhere with her and teaching me all kinds of great stuff. Her life has changed though–she is now both going to college and working a lot so we both moved in with her mom (I call her Gramma!) and Gramma is doing most of my care at present. Since First Mom isn’t going to have the time to take care of me well for quite a number of years to come, everyone wants to find me a great new home…

Adopted: Jed

Hello! My name is Jed and I am a gorgeous, soft, and hilarious puppy! Quick Facts: Breed: Plotthound mix (maybe mixed with Greyhound?) Gender: Neutered male Age: 1 year Size: 45 pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes! Very playful! Cats? Untested (ask us, we can cat test) Kids? Most likely! History I was found stray in TN and was taken to a pretty rough, dismal TN shelter. Dogs only have 30 days there before being put to sleep, so just in the nick of time, a nice KY rescue lady got me out and stashed me at a kennel while she waited for a spot in a northern rescue to open up. I quickly became a favorite at the kennel, with the people and all of the other dogs! Since I was doing really terrific with kennel living, CDR said they could let me join their foster program, and that the…

Adopted: Maggie

Hi, My name is Maggie, and I am incredibly gentle, sweet, and calm! Quick Facts: Breed: Great Pyrenees mix Gender: Female, spayed Age: 4 years old Size: 55 pounds Good with… Dogs? Dogs? Yes Cats? Yes! Kids? Calm and mature. History I was owned by some folks in rural KY who kept me outside 24/7. They never spent any time with me, I was out there by myself all the time, it was very sad. With nothing to do, I would dig holes in the dirt to entertain myself (and also to lay in when it was hot). They didn’t like me doing that, and when they took me to the local high-kill shelter to leave me forever, they told the staff that they were tired of filling in the holes I dug, so they were getting rid of me. Sad story, and I was quite scared at the shelter,…
