My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

I heard it’s my turn to ask Santa!

Hey Santa, I’m Rusty. My last owners must’ve thought i was just too much to deal with. Or maybe they couldn’t afford me. I don’t really understand cause I don’t speak English too well, but i know you can speak dog, Santa!

I was picked up by dog control, and i heard someone call me a stray. I don’t like the sound of that word, it doesn’t sound very nice.

I know I’m a big boy, but sometimes I forget how much I’ve grown, and forget I can’t jump on people the way i used to as a little puppy. I love people, and just get so excited when they give me attention!!!

I try to be a sweet boy, and learn everything the shelter is teaching me. I love to give kisses, and love to play! The shelter staff also said I'm super smart!

I also heard that I’m going to be going away for a little while. While I’m pretty scared, I’m also super excited cause I heard it will help me get the best family…one that lasts forever!!

When i get back from Canine Sports Unlimited for my Board & Train I’m gonna be the bestest boy ever! Hopefully my new parents are waiting!

Peace out Santa! 🐾 ❤️ ~ Rusty

More about this shelter

The Lewis County Humane Society is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) corporation which owns and operates a no-kill animal shelter on the Pine Grove Rd in Glenfield, NY. That shelter is contracted with the townships in Lewis County to house dogs brought in from the townships by the dog control officers. The shelter also houses homeless cats from the county.
Our shelter relies on the generosity of our supporters because shelter expenses far exceed our revenue. We greatly appreciate all your support which enables us to care for and find new homes for all the wonderful animals at our shelter.
