No more applications are being taken at this point! Hello! My name is Cookie, cause I’m little and sweet and kind of look like an Oreo! History I was adopted by my current humans from a dog kennel east of Greene NY when I was about 8 weeks old. I have been a very happy, joyful, adorable, and healthy little pupper, but it turns out that my humans don’t have the time each day to take care of me the way I need, so they have come to the hard decision to find me a great new home. They want me to have lots of love and attention and exercise and play, and they are just too busy to give me those things. Personality I…

My name is Bessie and I’m a big, goofy sweetheart who wants to laze around, snuggle with you and be your very best buddy! History I have lived with two families in my life. The first family had me from puppyhood to age 5, at which point they decided they didn’t have enough time for me.

My current family loves me, but aren’t able to do this training with me, and as I am a strong girl, they find…

My name is Mina, I am from St Croix, and I love affection, playing with other dogs, snuggling, swimming and fun. History Mina was living under a vacant house in St. Croix, tending to her litter of pups as best she could. She was discovered when a painter heard the puppies crying and called rescuers with Cruzan Satos Rescue. They coaxed her out by gathering up the puppies and waiting for them to cry for her.

After making sure that the whole dog family was safely out from under the house, the puppies…

Unfortunately, as the kids have gotten bigger and more rambunctious (they are now 3 and 6 years old), I have gotten a bit stressed and overly excited by their enthusiasm, and as I try to both join in, and police, their play, things have gotten a little…
