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! History I landed in the Syracuse city shelter back in the summer of 2019 after having been abandoned in a house that had been partially burned down. It was traumatic. Horrible living through a fire, and horrible being abandoned by my person. Doubly traumatic. And understandably, though I have an incredibly friendly, loving, affectionate and loyal personality, it has left me with some worries. My former owner (the one who abandoned me) was charged with animal abuse. The county put me up at the city shelter for 5 months, which had nice people but was still a scary place. Then Cayuga Dog Rescue took me into their foster…

Adopted: Cedar

Quick Facts: Breed: Lab/Beagle mix Gender: Male, neutered Age: 9 months old Size: 45 pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes! Cats? Sorry, no. Kids? 12+ Hi there! My name is Cedar, and I’m a fun-loving, sweet-hearted, enthusiastic Lab-Beagle mix! History I’ve lived with my family in Ithaca for about 4 months. Before that, I had spent my whole life in shelters, which was very sad and scary for a tiny puppy! I was born in Alabama, landed in a shelter there, and then was transported at 4 months old to a no-kill shelter in Binghamton, NY. Whew! That was lucky! Then I got adopted by my current family and life started to get much better! I learned so much in the past 4-5 months! I got house-broken, learned how to walk on a leash, what kinds of furniture were ok to be on (couches) and what kinds weren’t (tables, haha!), and…

Quick Facts: Breed: Basset Hound mix Gender: Female, spayed Age: 6-8 years old Size: 40 pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes! Cats? Yes! Kids? 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…

This is a courtesy posting for his foster family who will make all decisions about his adoptive placement.*** History An elder in the family went into nursing care with dementia and when I was transferred into a temporary foster care situation, they found that I had unfortunately been severely neglected due to the dementia of my owner. My ribcage was sticking out an awful lot, and I was very dehydrated. When they found me, I was eating grass to try to keep myself going. It was very sad,…

My name is Joey and I am the best cuddler and most loyal companion you will ever find! History I was lucky to be rescued at one year-old by my current owner.

We’ve been together for seven years now, and it has been soooo nice! I kept her warm at night by sleeping in bed with her when she needed me, I have chased the pesky squirrels out of the yard (she never asked me to do this, but I could tell she wanted me to), and I let her know when anyone…
