Cosmo - 2 years & 16lbs, Chi Mix, Neutered Our Team Says: "This pup was rescued from a hoarding situation in PR - involving about 40 dogs. Due to this these pups are on the shyer side and need patient people who will give them time to get used to normal life. They are very sweet dogs: just need more time and patience." This dog is eligible to join our foster-to-adopt program. Please email fostertoadopt@socialteesnyc.org with the animal’s name in the subject line if you are interested! Want to straight up adopt? Submit an adoption application at socialteesnyc.org Their Foster Parent Says: "Cosmo has been with me for four weeks now, and what a change – he is truly a different dog. At the outset he was timid and fearful of anyone who would try to touch him, a reflection of the neglect I suspect he suffered in his former life. He used to like to hide in his crate and move back into the furthest corner if anyone approached. Now he’s an affectionate little love-bug! When I’m walking around the apartment he is like my shadow, following me everywhere and nudging my leg to get my attention. When I’m sitting, he is either sleeping on his tummy next to my chair or he puts his chin on my chair and waits for me to stroke his head or under his chin – or, best of all, to do both simultaneously! He seems to go into a love coma with his eyes half shut and his ears standing up! He is much more trusting and friendly with everyone now, even strangers we meet on our walks. He will nuzzle their hands and let them stroke him. He has also become more playful and has a little lamb he likes to shake and hear it squeak. He usually takes it into his crate at night, along with his “hedgie”. He has a new toy called a “Dog Brick” where one hides treats in various little compartments. He is having such fun with it and has become quite clever at flipping the lids and sliding the blocks to find the goodies! Right from the start, Cosmo has been a very sweet, calm dog and as he has become more settled he has only become sweeter. He is a gentle soul who rarely barks, never growls and is not at all mouthy, the perfect apartment dog. He never nips and has no interest in chewing shoes or anything else. He is completely house-trained and rarely has an accident. He loves to go “walkies” and always waits until we are outside to “go”. He likes to sniff just about everything outside and does pull on the leash a lot – I’m trying to train him not to. He generally seems scared of other dogs, even the littlest ones. We usually stand to one side as they go past and he never lunges or shows any aggression towards them. Based upon a couple of encounters in the park, he also seems to be gentle with children." Level of dog ownership experience required:BEGINNER – “Beginner” doesn’t necessarily mean easy as all dogs will require time, work, and patience, but we predict this dog will be low on the challenge scale because of their breed/age combo. Potentially a good fit for someone who has relevant dog care experience (fostering, dog sitting) and is looking to adopt their first pup.  Energy level:MEDIUM – Needs a daily 60-90 minute walk or window of quick paced exercise (minimum) in addition to potty break strolls (10-30 min each). Also needs significant socializing opportunities outside the home and mental stimulation at home like tricks training practice, chew items, and puzzle toys. (This is regardless of dog size – many small breeds were designed for lots of activity and will exhibit unwanted behavior when they’re understimulated.)  Okay in the city?Yes - doing well here Potty trained?Yes - doesn't have accidents Social with other dogs?Yes, okay to live with another dog  Social with cats?Yes, would be fine to live with cas  Comfortable with children?  (ALWAYS requires adult supervision)Okay for a home with respectful kids  MOUTHY BEHAVIORPast this stage– Little to no interest in chewing on stuff or putting things in their mouth that aren’t food. Doesn’t try to chew on hands, feet, etc. during playtimeSEPARATION ANXIETYPast this stage – Completely fine being left home alone. Doesn’t cry or exhibit destructive behavior when you leave the apartment or house. LEASH MANNERSGetting the hang of it – Probably hasn’t been on a leash much in their life but figuring it out. Might be a mild puller but responds to correction. CUDDLE BUG LEVELLower – Independent, mostly keeps to themself (may be a new rescue or shy, this could change) JUMPING ON PEOPLE TO SAY HELLOCalm Greetings – Doesn’t jump up on people or dogs. Always all four on the floor. CRATE TRAININGYep/mostly – Seems comfortable in the crate, may whine a little at first but settles pretty quickly. We use the crate when we leave the pup alone and/or at night.  Medical status:Healthy as far as we know. Up to date on their DHPP, Bordetella, and Rabies vaccines; heartworm tested if coming from Tennessee or Puerto Rico; spayed/neutered; microchipped; treated with dewormer upon intake How did this dog end up with Social Tees?Most of our dogs come via partner groups who help us save them from shelters where they are at risk of euthanasia in Tennessee, Los Angeles, and Puerto Rico. There are very few spay/neuter resources there and many more animals in those areas than there are people to adopt them. Rescue groups like ours bring them to the northeast where the desire for pets like these allows us to save their lives.  PLEASE NOTE: We cannot guarantee any breed mix, exact age, or full grown size (if the dog is under a year old). We do our best with very educated guesses. This animal is not at the Social Tees office, all are in foster homes. LEARN MORE ABOUT US: socialteesnyc.org and Instagram @socialteesnyc ##2753197##

Meet Tonka! Some dogs want toys. Some dogs want treats. Tonka just wants you. This 9-year-old, 12-pound Dachshund was rescued from a home along with 41 other dachshunds. Tonka is the definition of a Velcro dog. His favorite place in the world is in someone's lap, and if there isn't one available, he'll happily search the house until he finds one. He's happiest when he's close to his people, soaking up belly rubs, cuddles, and all the affection he can get. His foster watched him instantly bond with their 8-year-old son. The two became inseparable almost overnight. Tonka followed him everywhere, slept snuggled beside him each night, and even tried to follow him onto the school bus one morning because he couldn't bear to see his little buddy leave. That's just who Tonka is—when he loves you, he loves you with his whole heart. Like many rescue dogs, Tonka is looking for a family that understands building trust takes time. He does experience some separation anxiety and can be fearful in certain situations, particularly around some men he doesn't know. Because of this, he'll need adopters who are patient, consistent, and willing to let him adjust at his own pace. Tonka isn't the type of dog who will instantly feel at home—and that's okay. What he needs most is someone who understands that trust isn't built overnight, but through kindness, routine, and showing him day after day that he's safe. The beautiful thing about Tonka is that once he loves you, he loves you with everything he has. His foster has seen firsthand how deeply he bonds with his people, and it's impossible not to fall in love with his unwavering loyalty and affectionate heart. His perfect family won't expect perfection on day one—they'll celebrate every little milestone and know that the strongest bonds are often the ones that take a little time to build. If you're looking for a loyal best friend who believes there's no such thing as too many cuddles, Tonka is waiting to meet you.

Meet Delilah & Limbo! Some dogs find comfort in a favorite blanket. Delilah and Limbo find comfort in each other. These 10-year-old Dachshund littermates (turning 11 on August 24th) have spent their entire lives side by side. Rescued together from a home with more than 60 dogs, they've faced every change, every new experience, and every fresh start as a team. And honestly? They wouldn't have it any other way. When it's time for bed, you'll find them curled up together, often sharing the same bed without a care in the world. When it's time to eat, they're happy to share space and enjoy every bite, making up for years of uncertainty. When something new happens, they look to each other for reassurance. They are the perfect yin and yang. Delilah is the social butterfly of the duo. She loves being around people and has a funny little habit of rubbing her back against your legs or hands to give herself a back scratch while soaking up affection. She's cheerful, affectionate, and always interested in being part of whatever you're doing. Limbo takes a little longer to warm up. He's more of an observer at first, quietly taking everything in before deciding you're worthy of his trust. But once he settles in, his sweet and gentle personality shines through. His foster describes him simply as perfection. Together, they're remarkably easy companions. They quickly learned the routine in foster care, sleep quietly through the night, and are making excellent progress with house training. They use wee-wee pads and are learning that going outside is pretty great, too. Like many dogs experiencing home life for the first time, they still have the occasional accident, but they're trying hard and improving every day. These two get along beautifully with other dogs of all sizes and are currently living with canine housemates ranging from tiny to over 70 pounds. They're also wonderful with children and have shown themselves to be resilient, adaptable, and incredibly loving. What makes Delilah and Limbo so special isn't just their bond—it's their outlook on life. After spending nearly 11 years as two of more than 60 dogs, they could have been fearful or withdrawn. Instead, they have embraced every opportunity for love, comfort, and connection. They don't ask for much. A soft bed. A steady routine. A family to call their own. And most importantly, each other. Delilah and Limbo are looking for a home that understands some bonds are too special to break. In return, they'll fill that home with twice the love, twice the companionship, and countless heartwarming moments.

Meet Titan! Titan is a 14-year-old, 13-pound Dachshund who is proof that it's never too late for a fresh start. He was rescued alongside 41 other Dachshunds from a home with more than 60 dogs, and he is now looking for a quiet, loving family where he can spend his golden years in comfort. This sweet senior is completely blind and has some mobility limitations, but don't let that fool you—Titan still enjoys exploring the world around him at his own pace. His favorite place is a secure yard or grassy outdoor space where he can safely wander, soak up the sunshine, and take care of his business. Busy city sidewalks aren't really his thing, and he would do best in a calmer environment where he can feel safe and relaxed. Titan is a gentle, easygoing companion who spends much of his day snoozing in a cozy bed. While he's more of an independent guy than a cuddler, he has started seeking out affection as he settles into foster care and enjoys being pet and spending time near his people. He's wonderful with other dogs and gets along with everyone he meets, including children, adults, and seniors. One thing Titan absolutely loves? Mealtime! Despite having no teeth, he never misses an opportunity for a good meal and approaches every dinner with enthusiasm. His future family should be prepared to continue working on his housetraining routine, as he is still learning a consistent bathroom schedule and may have accidents. Thankfully, Titan is incredibly cooperative and tolerant with handling, happily accepting baths, medications, and routine care. Titan is looking for a patient, understanding home that can accommodate his special needs and give him the comfort, consistency, and love he deserves. In return, he'll be a loyal, grateful companion who is simply happy to have a safe place to call home.

Meet Delilah & Limbo! Delilah and Limbo are 10-year-old Dachshund littermates (turning 11 on August 24th) who have spent their entire lives together—and after everything they've been through, these twins are looking for a home where they can stay side by side forever. Rescued alongside 40 other Dachshunds from a home with more than 60 dogs, Delilah and Limbo have amazed their foster family with their resilience, adaptability, and sweet dispositions. Despite the major changes in their lives, they settled into foster care almost immediately, quickly learning household routines and showing everyone just how wonderful they are. These two are the definition of a bonded pair. They sleep curled up together or side by side every night, often sharing the same bed without a fuss. They eat their meals together, happily sharing space and making up for lost time with every bite. They truly are the yin to each other's yang—different personalities that fit together perfectly. Delilah is the more outgoing of the two and absolutely loves affection. One of her favorite things is rubbing her back against her people to give herself a little back scratch while soaking up attention. She's affectionate, cheerful, and always wants to be where the action is. Limbo is a bit more reserved when meeting new people, but once he settles in, his sweet nature shines through. His foster describes him as pure perfection—a gentle, loving boy who simply needs a moment to feel comfortable before showing his affectionate side. Both dogs love being close to their people and will happily follow you from room to room just to be part of whatever you're doing. They are wonderful companions without being demanding and have quickly become cherished members of their foster home. Delilah and Limbo are fantastic with other dogs of all sizes and are currently living peacefully with dogs weighing over 70 pounds as well as a smaller canine companion. They're also great with children and have proven themselves to be easygoing, social dogs who fit seamlessly into family life. They are making excellent progress with house training and will use wee-wee pads when needed. Like many dogs adjusting to life in a home for the first time, they still have the occasional accident, but they're learning quickly and have already come so far. What makes Delilah and Limbo so special isn't just their sweetness—it's their incredible spirit. After years spent as two of more than 60 dogs, they've remained trusting, loving, and eager to embrace every bit of kindness that comes their way. These resilient seniors are ready for the next chapter of their lives: a home filled with soft beds, good meals, gentle affection, and a family who understands that some bonds are simply meant to last forever. If you're looking for a pair of devoted companions who will fill your home with love, laughter, and double the Dachshund charm, Delilah and Limbo are waiting to meet you.
