Story
Sister Sister!!  8 years old and only 8 lbs each. These tiny ladies are Bonded, which of course means they MUST be adopted together.  We really can't say what breeds they may be, but does that really matter when you look at those adorable faces???  The girls are starved for attention and pretty much will let you know when they want it!  But hey, they deserve all the love and attention they get.  They were surrendered to the Staten Island Shelter for no fault of their own, and are waiting for the new family or companion to adopt them.  Room for two delicious little girls??? Good with dogs and cats. Children 13+ please Please go to the link to fill our our adoption application.  https://www.remembermerescueny.net/adoption-application  Remember Me Rescue does not adopt out of the local area, no transport is available.  We adopt to Long Island, Westchester, NYC area and parts of Connecticut only. Also, we have a very high volume of applications and we are all volunteers. We cannot respond to every application personally. Please make sure your application gives us a good picture of your family and the life you plan on providing a dog from our rescue. We choose a home based on the BEST FIT for EACH dog and approve on a dog by dog basis. Thank you! ##2559977##

Honey is as sweet as her name.  She is a 10 year young lady, very calm, sweet and good with dogs, and every human she meets.  Honey loves to sit in the sun outdoors, or just sit with you on the couch and snuggle.  Honey is still an active lady, well she runs but short distances!  She truly is a love and deserves a home to call her own.   Please go to the link to fill our our adoption application.  https://www.remembermerescueny.net/adoption-application  Remember Me Rescue does not adopt out of the local area, no transport is available.  We adopt to Long Island, Westchester, NYC area and parts of Connecticut only.
