Story
Pluto is a 10-year old French Bulldog being fostered in Western NY. He's affectionate and energetic, and everyone who meets him falls in love with him. He's good with men, women, kids (although not tested with anyone under 10). He's never bitten anyone or shown aggression towards people. He is, however, dog-aggressive and he chases cats and any other small animals. He is only suitable for a home without other animals that might be loose around the house. He is house-trained, crate-trained, leash-trained, up to date on all vaccinations, and heartworm negative. He is on two prescriptions: Reconcile, for general anxiety (which has helped a lot), and Tacrolimus, an eyedrop which he gets in both eyes once/day.He would be ideal for a home where someone is around most of the day. A fenced yard would be a big plus, but is not required. His foster mom will want to get a veterinary reference from you.

Story
Hi, I'm Jethro! **an approved application is required to meet me** Intake type: Transfer from Canisteo DCO DOB: 5/9/23 Breed: Large mixed breed Gender: Neutered male I can be slow to warm up and trust, as my shelter family thinks people may have not always been kind to me. Once I’m comfortable with my people I promise I am just a big ol’ goofy goober! I have played well with other pups I've met so far, and might like a friend in my new home. A meet and greet is always required if you have other dogs in the home to be sure we all get along. My shelter family says I would do best in an adult only home 18+, so no kiddos for me! If you think you might be interested in adopting me, submit an app today!!

Story
Hi, I'm Nelly Jane! Intake type: Surrender DOB: 11/03/2025 Gender: Spayed Female Breed: Shepherd/Lab Mix Energy Level: Medium Weight: 57lbs I heard you were looking for a new best friend.. you're in luck because I've never met a stranger! My shelter family describes me as "happy-go-lucky" which makes sense because I am a little ray of sunshine. I have loved meeting new people at the shelter, but what I am most excited for is meeting my forever family! I dream of going on long walks with them, playing fetch, and then curling up on the couch after all of our adventures. I have lived with other dogs previously so I may be open to a doggo sibling. As always, we will do a meet and greet to make sure it's the perfect fit for everyone! If you think I'd make the perfect addition to your home (I mean look at me, I'm sure you do!).. click here to fill out an adoption application: https://www.hornellanimalshelter.org/Adoptionprocessandfees

Story
Hi! I'm Hershey! Intake type: Surrender DOB: 9/1/24 Gender: male Breed: Medium sized mixed breed I was recently surrendered to the shelter due to my previous family's living arrangements drastically changing, which has resulted in having to find a new family to love me just as much as they did. As much as I love my shelter family, I'm ready to break free and find a new home to call my own where I can make lots of new memories ❤️ I enjoy getting attention from my favorite people and love to sit in your lap for snuggles. If you're one of the lucky ones, I just might sneak in a hug or a smooch or two! I enjoy the finer things in life like zoomies and all the smells the grass has to offer! I did live with other pups in my previous home and I’ve made friends with a lot of pups at the shelter, so I may be open to having another k-9 companion to keep me company when you're out and about. As always, a meet and greet is required if you have other pups or kiddos in your home to be sure we can all be the best of friends! Do you think I may be the pup for you? Please submit an app so we can find out!
