Story
Meet Cedar – The Shelter Kid Learning How to Be Loved Cedar is a 9-month-old Lab mixed-breed boy, about 50 lbs, who has spent almost his entire life in a shelter. He went in at just 10 weeks old and didn’t get out until he was finally pulled into foster at 8 months. Now he’s getting his very first taste of home life. The basics: Age: 9 months Weight: ~50 lbs Neutered Up to date on vaccines On heartworm & flea prevention Crate trained & very cleanPersonality:Cedar is a shy, gentle soul who is still figuring people out. New humans can be a little scary, but dogs? Those are his comfort zone. He LOVES other dogs and comes alive running the yard with the pack. He’s also very food motivated—with a few tasty treats, he’ll cautiously come closer and even allow gentle pets. You can see him slowly blooming a little more every day. What Cedar needs:Cedar isn’t a ready-made, walk-in-the-door-and-party kind of dog. He’s the “earn his trust and watch the magic happen” type. He needs:A patient, calm family who will go at his paceA consistent routine and a cozy, quiet spot to feel safeLots of gentle praise and positive reinforcement Bonus: a confident, friendly dog buddy to show him the ropes and a physical fence.  If you’ve ever wanted to be the person who helps a shy dog finally feel safe, Cedar is your boy. Watching him learn that people can be kind and homes can be forever will be the best kind of heartwarming.  If you would like Cedar to join your family please fill out am aoption application.  Her $500 adoption fee cover medical care up to adoption to include vaccines, microchip, foster care and transportation to NY. ##2594788##

Story
Meet the Sweet Treat Litter Approx. 4 months old • ~20 lbs • Spayed/Neutered • Up-to-Date on Vaccines This precious litter was rescued after surviving under a commercial building tucked between two major highways. It took weeks of patience and trapping to bring them to safety. Despite such a scary start, these puppies are incredibly sweet, gentle, and resilient—earning them the name The Sweet Treat Litter. Breed Guess:We don’t know their exact mix, but we suspect Yellow Lab is part of the blend, possibly combined with some Border Terrier–type traits, and for our brindle boy Biscotti, we also see hints of Plott Hound. Whatever the mix, they’re shaping up to be wonderful, medium-sized companions. Biscotti – Brindle Male Confident, affectionate, and people-focusedBiscotti is bold, loving, and playful. He’s not shy about affection and wants to be wherever his people are. He adapts quickly and would do well as an only dog or with a canine companion. Puppy Basics (Important to Know!)    •    They are still learning to walk on a leash and doing really well so far—just young and learning    •    Crate training is in progress    •    Because of their age, they may still need overnight potty breaks and can’t always hold their bladder all night yet    •    They are progressing beautifully and improving every day with consistency and patience The Sweet Treat Scoop    •    ~4 months old    •    About 20 lbs (expected to be medium-sized adults)    •    Spayed / neutered    •    Up-to-date on vaccines & preventatives    •    Dog-friendly, sweet, and eager to learn These puppies went from hiding under concrete and traffic noise to discovering beds, toys, and kind hands. They don’t need perfection—just patience, structure, love and socialization. If you’re ready to help one of these sweet souls grow into the amazing dog they’re meant to be, one of the Sweet Treats might be waiting just for you .  If you would like Biscotti to join your family please fill out an adoption application.  His $550 adoption fee covers medical care up to adoption to include vaccines, neuter, microchip, foster care and transportation from Louisiana to NY.   ##2566389##
