My name is Fig Newton, and I am a sweet, sensitive, loving and loyal boy!

So scared of people, so scared of quick movements, so scared of loud noises. But then a miracle happened! Those abusive people didn’t want me anymore and so I got adopted by my current mom, who is wonderful! She was so understanding about my fears, and has worked so lovingly with me to help me heal! She says that in the beginning, whenever she left the house, I would scream and…

My name is Hank and I am a cheerful, handsome, bouncy hound mix who also loves a good snuggle. History Hank was fostered in central New York, then adopted to a family near Columbus, OH in the spring of 2025. His OH family is embracing big life changes, so Hank was looking for a new home when he returned to the Ithaca, NY area in December of 2025. He had always lived with other dogs, and this was to be his first home without a dog buddy. We had hoped cats would be an ok substitute. Unfortunately, upon his arrival to his new home, Hank learned that he doesn’t want to live with cats. Because of very tight quarters, managing his relationship to the OG…

Pretty mellow with them & cats comfortable with her! Kids? Yes! Friendly with everyone! History Juno’s was originally adopted from a breeder near Utica, NY, by a young couple. She did great with them. They had a baby a few years later, and found that there were not enough hours in the day to care for a baby and a young husky. As friends of the family, my partner and I took a chance adopting Juno into our established pack of two dogs (a male husky and a female pitbull and two indoor/outdoor cats. Coming home with us, Juno quickly adjusted to new routines, with slower mornings, walking with two other dogs, and having ample free time in a…
