Story
Birthdate: 8/19/2020Breed: One of a kindWeight:   18 lbsMeet Chase & Sky – The Perfect Pair Chase and Sky are sweet, adorable siblings who share a special bond and are looking for a forever home together. These cutie pups balance each other beautifully and truly thrive as a team!Chase is the confident leader of the duo. He’s curious, brave, and the first to explore new places or greet new people. His adventurous spirit helps pave the way for his sister and shows her that the world isn’t so scary. Sky is a little more reserved at first, taking her time to feel safe and comfortable. Once she warms up, she’ll come to you at her own pace with the sweetest, most gentle affection. With Chase by her side, her confidence blossoms!Together, they walk wonderfully on leash and love exploring as a pair. After their adventures, they’re happiest snuggled up close, soaking up cuddles and giving plenty of love in return. Chase and Sky are deeply bonded and must find a home together — their connection is truly heart-melting. If you’re looking for double the love, double the cuddles, and a built-in best friend duo, these two are ready to fill your home with joy! I'm bonded with my best friend Sky! We must go home together! The Rescue is open 7 days a week for you to come and meet our pets! Walk-ins are welcome! In order to interact with them, you’ll need a simple questionnaire filled out. You can fill this out at the Rescue or before you come in at: https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/36924/generic If you have any questions, please email us at adoptions@pawscrossedny.org for more information. Please understand that we cannot hold pets for any reason. All adoptions are done on a first come, first adopt basis for pre-approved applicants. The Shelter software system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of our dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We encourage you to select your new companion by considering each dog's individual personality and pet qualities instead of relying on a breed label that is only a guess.February 26, 2026, 12:31 am
