Story
Scottie is a 2.5 year old rat terrier (Purebred-I did an Embark test) that I got from a FB post on a group I follow. His original family needed him rehomed asap and didn't ask for a fee so I just paid them for any of his belongings (crate, food, clothes, leashes). I have other dogs and they're big (Great Danes) so a small dog was a bit outside my comfort zone but he was so cute and I thought how hard could it be. I soon realized what people say about the small dog personality is true. I have cats also and since getting Scottie I realize he has a VERY high prey drive. Scottie is the same size as some of my cats (he's 17-18.5 lbs) and tries to sniff them out and square down with them every chance he gets so they have to be separated for safety but my cat is having kittens and I can no longer take the risk. With other dogs he's fine and very playful. I don't have kids so I'm not sure about that but he loves walks and is an escape artist and will find any gaps in a fence or backyard.

Charlie

American Pit Bull Terrier

Mount Vernon, NY
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Charlie is a four year old pitbull with the build of a linebacker and the heart of a marshmallow. He loves cuddles, lives for zoomies, and gives serious side eye if you're slow with treats. His tongue is always out, whether he's napping, playing, or silently judging you from the couch. He is house trained, knows the routine, and does well with other large dogs. Smaller dogs might find him a bit much. Charlie is equal parts silly, sassy, and seriously lazy. When he is not doing zoomies, he is usually flopped on the nearest soft surface waiting for belly rubs or snacks. He is very treat motivated and even more nap motivated. One minute he is snoring on his back, the next he is giving you a look that says, "You wore that today?" If you want a dog with a big heart, a goofy personality, and just the right amount of attitude, Charlie is your guy. Come meet him. He is already sizing you up and hoping you brought snacks.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Gizmo is one of the sweetest little gentleman. He came to me in October after my mom passed; Gizmo was her very best friend. He is patient, sweet, and loving and has adapted beautifully to his new life. I have another dog (10 pound poodle) and they get along perfectly well, it’s just that I work full time and Gizmo, who is 11, requires a lot of trips outside to the bathroom that I cannot provide. Someone who has a lot of love to give a sweet little guy and has the time to get him outside will be so happy with Giz. For now, he wears a belly belt while I’m at work, which is very helpful, but he would be better having someone home more than I am capable of being.

Male, Senior
Yonkers, NY
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Rocky is a gentle, affectionate senior dog who's looking for a loving forever home to spend his golden years. Though he's older, don't let his age fool you — Rocky still has plenty of energy and enjoys playtime just as much as he loves curling up for a cuddle. Treats are his absolute favorite, and his tail never stops wagging when he knows someone is near to give him a little snack and a lot of love. We've had the joy of sharing many wonderful years with Rocky, and it breaks our hearts to make this decision. Unfortunately, we're no longer in a position to give him the life he truly deserves. Our only wish is to find a home where he'll be cherished, kept comfortable, and surrounded by warmth and care. Rocky has so much love left to give, and we know he'll be an incredible companion to the right person or family.

Story
Hoshi is a 5 1/2 year old Shiba Inu who needs a new home due to aggression towards other dogs in the home. She is a loving dog towards her person and a homebody, preferring to stay in her yard and sun herself. Hoshi is pretty low energy and would make a good companion for someone looking for an independent lowkey dog. She is housebroken but familiar with wee wee pads. Hoshi needs to go to a home without other dogs/cats, and absolutely no children. Hoshi is a very nervous dog and has some behavioral problems like reactivity towards strangers and other dogs while on leash. Hoshi needs an experienced adopter who understands her breed and behavioral problems.
