Hi there, they call me Whiskey and I`m a 60 pound 5 year old babe with ears for days! As you can see, my ears stand straight up when I`m alert. They will lay flat if I`m nervous or relaxed, which gives me many different `looks` so you`ll never tire of my cute face! I can be a little skittish around new people and new places, so please be patient and gentle when we first meet. Once we`re besties, I love neck scratches and, if you do it right, I`ll probably flop over some belly rubs! I like to play with toys too and make silly noises sometimes. I got adopted a while back, but my person had to move to a smaller space and there wouldn`t be room for me. With my person, I got to go on walks every day, lounge on the couch or bed, and play with my favourite squeaker duck! There was a cat there too, and I did ok, but if you have a cat at your place, our staff will suggest a good way to be sure we can co-exist peacefully. If you would like a cutie like me, please call, email or stop by the shelter to learn more!

As part of the process of selecting an SPCA pet, you will be asked to complete an adoption application. After the application is approved, we ask you to sign an adoption agreement promising to humanely care for your animal. All cats and dogs are altered prior to adoption.
ANIMAL HEALTH AND VACCINATIONS:
All dogs which enter the SPCA receive vaccines for
* canine distemper (Adenovirus Type 2)
* parainfluenza & Parvovirus (DPP)
* leptospira bacterium
* Bordetella brochiseptica (kennel cough) intranasal.
All cats which enter the SPCA receive vaccines for
* Feline Rhinotracheitis (Feline Herpesvirus - I)
* Calicivirus
* Feline Distemper (Panleukopenia)
If pets are old enough, they also are given a rabies vaccination (Required by NY State law). The SPCA has regular veterinary care available for all animals and makes every effort to ensure that the animals are healthy before being made available for adoption. Cats are screened for Feline Leukemia. Dogs and cats all receive general worming medication.
DOG LICENSING:
All canines over six months of age are required, by New York State law, to be licensed before they can leave the shelter. Licensing is administered by the individual towns but can be completed at the SPCA at the time of adoption. The charges for licensing are not refundable if the dog is returned to the SPCA.
AFTER-ADOPTION SUPPORT:
We hope that your new pet will be an enjoyable addition to your household. If you have any questions about pet care, please feel free to ask the shelter staff or your veterinarian. We also have many free pamphlets on caring for your pet available at the SPCA and can provide the names of local resources for training or behavior concerns.
