Adopted: Ginny

Hello! My name is Ginny, and I have the softest fur ever! I am also the best spider detector in the world! Quick Facts: Breed: Australian Shepard mix Gender: Female, spayed Age: 5 year old Size: 50 pounds Good with… Dogs? Yes! Cats? Yes! Kids? Yes! 8+ years History In the Spring of 2013, a local Central NY dog rescue group rescued me from a high kill shelter in South Carolina when I was 9 months old. At the time, my current family was fostering dogs for the rescue group, and took me in as one of their foster dogs. I got along very well with their 4 year old male dog. We play wrestled, chased each other around the yard, and took turns fetching the ball. After a few weeks, my family decided to adopt me. I am about 5 years old now, and have had a pretty pleasant…

Adopted: Chloe

Quick Facts: Breed: Australian Shepherd Gender: Female, spayed Age: 2-5 year old Size: 65 -> 60 pounds Good with… Dogs? Sometimes! See below! Cats? No! Kids? No! Hello! My name is Chloe! I’m an incredibly sweet, affectionate, (but shy/scared) Aussie mix girl! History My former life was rough and scary and left me quite shy and nervous about new people, new places, and unexpected sounds. Before being rescued, I spent some months chained up to a barn and ignored by the people who were supposed to be my people, and where I was before that was also awful, but I try not to think about it. I am thankful every day that the Cornell vet students who came to the farm where I was chained out, offered to take me from those mean people. And I am thankful that those people didn’t want me, and were happy to hand me…

Yes! Cats? Yes! Kids? Yes! ***Winnie the Pooch is not a CDR dog and has not been evaluated by CDR.*** History I was born in New Jersey and was found in a cardboard box in front of an animal shelter with the rest of my brothers and sisters. A sweet couple who live in Queens, New York adopted me thinking that I was a Dachshund… but I kept growing! I’m a very good boy and they have given me the best home and life that they could, sacrificing a lot as I require lots of outdoor time and they have no backyard. Last summer I spent one month in Ithaca, NY living with my…

Adopted: Chester

Hi! My name is Chester and I am the happiest, most good-natured dog ever!! Quick Facts: Breed: Australian Shepherd mix Gender: Male, neutered Age: 7 years old Size: 52 pounds (stout) Good with… Dogs? Yes! Cats? Yes! Kids? Yes! 6+ History I was found as a stray and landed in a rough, dismal shelter in Kentucky. Very hard for any dog, but especially for a blind dog who can’t see what’s going on. One of the volunteers there felt so badly for me and so he bought me a special Halo device to help me navigate better which was terrific! And the staff saw that I was the sweetest, nicest, most deserving dog possible, so they worked hard to find rescue for me. And it worked! I was driven all the way up here by the two nicest KY rescue workers and have been having a fabulous time in my…

Kids? 12+ years Bonus: Completely housebroken! Background: I arrived for the first time in the CDR foster program 2 years ago (at age 2), after my owners split up. Those folks had kept me in a small fenced in outdoor kennel and gave me almost no attention, care, or training, which had been a very sad life for a happy, exuberant, loving, and active dog like me. Luckily, a lovely semi-retired couple adopted me from CDR and that’s where I have been for the past 2 years. They loved me a lot, took me to fun clicker training classes, got me a needed hip surgery, and helped me with all of…
