Story
Notes from NYACC and her previous owner. Butta is described as independent yet social and affectionate dog who spends most of her time in the living room of her home. She loves bath time and water, has never been crated and knows stay", "sit", "don’t move", "come", "let’s go", and "ready to eat". She's accustomed to going on 1-2 walks a day for 15mins at a time and does not pull on her leash during. Her favorite snack is chicken, she primarily eats Purina Puppy Chow dry food, and she loves all dog toys. She is known to prefer contact on her own terms at first and likes to have a blanket or towel for comfort when she is feeling scared of new people or loud noises. When she arrived she was fearful and shy but has come out of her shell and loves people and walks and watching everything around her. She is a pretty, the perfect age and ready for a new life! Adoption fee is 425.00

Story
Meatball arrived at NCCR after being abandoned in a local home with two other dogs when his owner moved out. He is an approximately 1 year old neutered male, believed to be a mix of Rat Terrier, Chihuahua, and some other mystery breed or two. He is friendly and loves to be held, & will happily climb onto your lap (he might need a boost!). He enjoys playing with toys, and gets along well with other friendly dogs his size. Additional pictures and info will be added soon. *Approved applicants are welcome to participate in our popular Slumber Party program and take a dog home for up to 2 weeks to make sure he/she is a great fit.  If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application at www.caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again when you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email us at adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day.We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopters must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide.

Story
Hank “the Tank” arrived at NCCR on 5/10/26, rescued from abandonment when his owner moved out and left Hank and several other dogs shut inside their house alone. He is an approximately 3-year-old male, believed to have Rat Terrier and/or Jack Russell Terrier, Beagle, and probably another breed or two in his mix. He is around 20-25 lbs. and is full-grown. He is a cheerful, feisty little guy with a big personality. Hank seems to get along with other friendly dogs, although cats are unknown to him – his breed mix may make living with cats an unlikely match. He seems to be house trained and keeps his kennel clean, knows how to walk on a leash, and is definitely very smart. Additional pictures and info will be added soon.*Approved applicants are welcome to participate in our popular Slumber Party program and take a dog home for up to 2 weeks to make sure he/she is a great fit.  If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application at www.caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application.

Story
Ramesses / Pascal really needs a new BEST FRIEND! This 4 year old 15lb RAT TERRIER mix has been through so much, and despite all this, he is so gentle and sweet, and loves all dogs, cats and people! He was rescued from the shelter two and a half years ago...his spirit was broken and he was very ill. A few months at Hotel Steve and he was thriving but still scared and nervous so he was returned twice before he found the man who would love him more than we could have wished for .. This precious little boy finally knew what love felt like and he went from Pascal to a strong pharaoh named Ramesses ... Sadly he was at home alone with his dad and best friend when fate was cruel and he lost the most important person in his world. ***Blessings to Julius Hawkins Jr. RIP whom we lost too young *** We are grateful to everyone who helped get him back out of the shelter so he could be at Hotel Steve while he recovers. Ramesses is housebroken and paper trained, up-to-date on vaccines, microchipped and neutered. He is the most amazing sweet and gentle baby boy. If you want a true ride or die forever companion... This is your guy. Ramesses is located in NYC.

We had an unexpected litter (7 total, 2 boys and 5 girls) born on 3/5/26. I have the parents, the mom is a rat terrier she weighs 32lbs and the dad is a pure breed yorkie and he weighs about 10lbs. I live in an apartment and can't keep these puppies. The puppies haven't been to the vet yet i'm hoping i can get them all seen in the next couple of weeks.
