Story
This spunky little Low Rider is going to be a lot of fun for some lucky family. He is a sweet, friendly, happy and good natured boy. He's pretty outgoing and active as well and he really enjoys playing with the other pups and exploring the outdoors. He adores being around people, grownups and kids alike, and being on the receiving end of their attention too. Im sure he will be sitting on go when the family loads up to go on their fun filled outings. Lotto is 1 year old (dob 6/1/25) and he weighs 15 pounds. He has been neutered, microchipped, 4DX heartworm tested, fecal tested and is current on all vaccinations, worming and on heartworm and flea prevention. His adoption fee is $400. Lotto is being fostered in Tennessee. Once adopted he will be transported to his pickup location by a professional dog transport company. Our rescue ships to the Northeast area most weeks and his fee includes transportation.

Story
 ALL our cats and dogs are in the NY area but can be adopted out of state to the purrfect furever home.  In some cases, we can help transport.  Zani's al fresco Summer Adoptions  follow us on FB to find us this summer as we will try new locations to meet the needs of NYC and support the little stores:)     Sweet 2yrs old 20lbs Otto from Puerto Rico would make a perfect Companion dog. All dogs are located in NY/NJ area All our puppies need puppy play dates/doggy facetime so we recommend homes with other pups or daily interactions to keep them tired out, happy and social.     Facebook: Zani's Furry Friends ZFF (weekly adoption event info posted there) Twitter: zanisff  Instagram: zanisfurryfriends   Dogs are spayed/neutered, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, Rabies vaxed, and microchipped (not Lyme vaxed but we seriously recommend it!)  All are in the NY/NJ area but we will adopt out of state to the purrfect home and in some cases, we can arrange transport.  Please go to our site  https://zanisfurryfriends.org  fill out an application  Many of us (cats/dogs) will be on display on Saturdays or Sundays, weather dependent--please ask by writing us at dogs@zanisfurryfriends.org and following us on FB. If you are seriously interested in adopting one of us in particular, please fill out an application early Friday so that we can be sure to be there. Otherwise we decide based on other variables. Usually we are in our foster homes so this is a bit more stressful and a slightly artificial environment but we do want to be seen and find our furever homes too.   Please consider providing a home for more than one dog, especially if you are considering adopting a puppy. Dogs are pack animals and very much enjoy as well as need other dog company to learn to play, socialize and be good companion animals to people. The upside to this is that you won't feel as guilty leaving them alone and you get twice the love. Please come! And if you can't adopt, maybe you can foster or volunteer, and you can always donate! If you want to know about cats/dogs specifically being shown at our adoption locations, please email us info@zanisfurryfriends.org closer to the date so we know your interest and will make every effort to have that pet at the event or let you know how and where you can meet.  It is extemely helpful and speeds up adoption if the application is filled out prior to visiting us so please do that before coming to our weekend events. Our weekend locations are: Saturdays or Sundays, weather dependent  Follow us on FB, Zani's Furry Friends ZFF, for latest updates. Usually we are in our foster homes so all this is a bit more stressful but we do want to be seen and find our furever homes. Please come! And if you can't adopt, maybe you can foster or volunteer. And you can always donate:) Cats and Dogs are spayed/neutered, UTD w/ all age appropriate shots and microchipped. Cats are feline combo tested for FIV/FeLV; dogs are heartworm tested and rabies vax'd, (NOT lyme vaxed but we seriously recommend it); rabbits are spayed/neutered.

Story
This is "Cindy". Cindy is dachshund/terrier mix. She is 2 1/2 years old and weighs about 10-12 pounds. Cindy came to us because her owner is no longer able to provide Cindy with the wonderful life she so much deserves. Another sad story. Cindy is a great little dog. She is well mannered, she comes when you call her and she sits when you tell her. Cindy is just a wonderful little girl. Cindy is not crazy about big dogs. She is okay with cats. In Cindy's new home, children must be 6 years old or older. You MUST own your own home. No condos. Absolutely no apartments. Cindy is spayed, her shots are up to date, she tested negative for heartworm and she is on Heartgard. To adopt from us, you MUST have a veterinarian reference in your own name. We will not place any animal without a veterinarian reference. We get a veterinarian reference from your veterinarian which is a history of medical care administered by your veterinarian to your present or previous pet or pets. Please do not contact us if you cannot abide by our adoption rules. The adoption fee for Cindy is $400.00. No credit cards. If you are interested in Cindy, please email us at feline55keeper@gmail.com. You can meet Cindy on Saturday at Petco located at 201 Union Street in Waterbury during our adoption hours from 12:00 to 3:00. PLEASE CONFIRM with us that you would like to meet Cindy on Saturday and we will be sure to bring her with us to Petco on Saturday. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE STRESS THAT IN ORDER TO ADOPT FROM US, YOU MUST HAVE A VETERINARIAN REFERENCE...NO EXCEPTIONS!

Story
Meet Dustin! He's a 1-year-old Dachshund mix weighing 20 pounds. This friendly, affectionate boy loves people and craves human companionship. He’s happiest when he’s with his people and would do best in a home where he won’t be left alone for long periods. He's the perfect fun size. Scoopable, cuddly, and has a gorgeous look that commands attention. Dustin is a young, active dog who will thrive with plenty of exercise, playtime, and opportunities to explore. He’s still learning about the world around him and would benefit from continued leash training to help him become more relaxed and confident on walks. This boy is not a fan of the shelter and is looking for a home or foster as soon as possible! If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion who wants to be part of all your adventures, Dustin may be the perfect match! Please contact his talent agent Jenn at jenn.w@poainc.org AND please complete an adoption application at www.poainc.org .
