Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi there, I’m Jill! I’m a 2-year-old, Lab mix with the softest fur and big brown eyes that people can’t help but fall in love with. After you give me  a treat or two, I’ll be your loyal shadow and best snuggle buddy. I adore attention from my people — pets, belly rubs, and couch cuddles are my absolute favorite. And did I mention treats? Oh my goodness, those are the best! Offer me a snack, and I’ll happily follow you anywhere. Toys are also my jam — squeaky, chewy, bouncy, I love them all! I even enjoy romping around with my canine foster brother. He’s a little guy, so I make sure to play gently with him. After playtime, you’ll usually find me curled up on the couch with a good bone or snoozing the afternoon away. I’m also cat-friendly — I don’t mind them at all, even if they hiss or swat at me. When it comes to kids, I do better with older ones, since I’m still figuring out the little ones under 6.  It’s time for me to find my very own family. Could that be you? If you’re looking for a sweet, playful, and snuggly girl to love forever, I’ll be waiting! Apply to adopt me at BuffaloCares.org.

My name is Sander and I am a 3-year-old staffie/pittie mix with a soft beautiful brindle coat. I was found as a stray right here in Buffalo and I was living at the Buffalo Animal shelter until my foster mama took me in. Once I get to know you, I will be your best friend, give you endless kisses and snuggle up on your lap even though I weigh almost 60 lbs. I live with three other dogs right now of all different sizes. I really don't like cats, so no kitty friends for me. But I have been friends with every human I have met from big to small. I love running outside and belly rubs galore.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi!  My name is Rosie and I am beautiful brindle ,American Pitbull terrier/mix.  I am a very sweet and loving girl.  My foster parents like to call me Miss. Piggy because when I get excited I snort a little! You see, I’m just your happy-go-lucky best friend in the making! I find joy in the simple things—laying in the grass, playing with my little puppy buddy next door, taking short strolls, or proudly destuffing toys like it’s an Olympic sport. And cuddles? Always a yes. But if you really want to see me light up, give me a ball. I’ll play for hours, making the most ridiculous noises that, sound like a mix between a seal and a pig! I might cry a little when I can’t reach it or playtime ends, but I’m also perfectly content curling up in my crate for a long nap. I may be getting older, but my heart is forever young and full of love you think I would be a good fit for your home please apply today @buffalocares.org My adoption fee is $425.00 RR48  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.All dogs come fully up to date on shots, microchipped, heart worm tested, de-wormed, on flea and heart worm preventative, and spayed/neutered.  If interested in learning more or adopting please fill out an application on our website at www.buffalocares.org.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Minnie – Over a YEAR of Love, Growth, and Cuddles! Hi there, I’m Minnie! It’s been over a year since my foster parents found me—lost, lonely, and hungry on the streets of Buffalo. Since then, I’ve come a long way, and they’ve learned so much about who I truly am: a snuggly, kissy, happy girl with a big heart and an even bigger zest for life! &#226&#156&#168 Here’s what they’ve discovered about me: I’m full of energy and joy but also the best napping buddy. I love to curl up and relax with my people. I didn’t even know what kibble was at first, but now I enjoy my meals and snacks—especially veggies, pumpkin, apples, and tasty treats! I’m potty trained! It took a little time, but I’ve nailed it now. I love walks, playing with my flirt pole, doing puzzles for treats, and working on training. I’ve even completed a 7-week training course to help me feel more confident around other dogs! I know lots of commands like sit, come inside, leave it, crate, come up, lay down, and find my bone. I might need an occasional reminder, but I’m eager to please. I’m a sweetheart when my humans are feeling down—nothing a cuddle and a gentle kiss can’t fix. I patiently sit for veggie snacks while my foster mom cooks and never sneak food from the counter! I get along well with my foster sister, but I’d really thrive as the only pet in the home where I can be your one and only. ♥&#239&#184&#143 If I could ask for just one thing from my future forever family, it would be patience. My past may be unknown, but I do know I wasn’t truly loved—until now. I’m ready to give you all the affection, loyalty, and joy I have to offer. If you think we’re meant to be, apply to meet me at BuffaloCares.org. I’ll be waiting with open paws and a wagging tail!
