Story
*Name: Gili *Age: 7.5 years old *Current Weight: 50 lbs  *Adoption fee: $400 Meet Gili, a 7.5-year-old rescue from Bali with a gentle spirit and an independent, loving nature. She’s looking for a calm, understanding home where she can feel safe and truly at ease. Gili is low-maintenance and enjoys spending her days roaming the yard, soaking up the sun, and relaxing around the house. She’s fully house-trained, doesn’t use a crate, loves neighborhood walks, and occasionally gets happy zoomies in the backyard. While Gili often chooses her own sleeping spot, she loves coming in for morning cuddles—especially gentle ear and chest rubs while she sweetly licks your hand. Gili is a devoted companion who likes to stay close and will follow her people from room to room for comfort. During summer storms, she can be anxious and seeks extra closeness, sometimes cuddling under blankets. Gili can be cautious with strangers and sudden movements so she would do best in a home without young children. She prefers to be the only pet and thrives in a peaceful, predictable environment. With adults who love her for who she is, Gili is affectionate, loyal, and deeply devoted in her own quiet way. She has so much love to give and will be a wonderful companion!  To apply to adopt, fill out an application at https://snarrnortheast.org/adopt/ PLEASE CLICK HERE FOR FAQs  ##2634318##

Story
Meet Oley!Oley is a sweet and affectionate dog who found himself in need of a new home after his previous owner, who had to relocate, was no longer able to care for him. He's been a great companion, showing a calm and gentle nature with the people he's met so far. Oley is a social guy who enjoys being close to his family, whether it's hanging out in the living room or spending time with people in the bedroom. He has a playful side, especially when it comes to stuffed animal toys or playing tug-of-war, but he also loves lounging around and enjoying a good bath! My Ideal HomeOley is looking for a home where he can relax and be close to his people. He would do best in a calm environment with someone who can spend a lot of time with him. He needs a household without young children (under 5) and no cats, as he has shown some lunging behavior towards cats in the past. Oley is a great dog for someone who enjoys a low-key lifestyle and can provide him with the attention and space he needs to thrive. He enjoys his daily walks and would love a home with a securely fenced yard for leisurely outdoor time. Good with Kids?Yes, Oley is friendly and outgoing with older kids, but he would do best in a home without very young children. He is playful and affectionate around older children who can respect his space and boundaries, but his resource guarding tendencies and behavior around younger children make him unsuitable for homes with kids under 5. Good with Other Pets?Oley has lived with other dogs before and is generally friendly and outgoing with them, so he could thrive in a home with another dog. However, he does not do well with cats. He has shown a tendency to lunge at them during walks, which is a behavior that will need to be managed carefully with training. As for small animals, it's recommended that they also be kept out of his environment. Leash MannersOley walks well on a leash and doesn't pull, making him a great companion for leisurely strolls. However, he does have some on-leash reactivity, particularly when it comes to cats, so he may need some work on impulse control and focus during walks. It's recommended to use a secure harness and leash, keep a safe distance from triggers, and incorporate positive reinforcement techniques like "leave it" and "watch me" to help manage his reactivity. Overall HealthOley is a generally healthy dog, although he's been showing signs of mild anemia and osteoarthritis, as well as some dental disease. He's currently undergoing treatment for a respiratory issue (CIRDC) and some mild inappetence, but with the right care, he's expected to improve. Oley is also a senior dog, so his medical needs will need to be managed. Primary Color: White Secondary Color: Tan Weight: 104 Age: 11yrs 1mths 1wks

Story
Meet Panda! Panda is 8 years old and his favorite pet friend is a miniature schnauzer who tends to bully him! Panda loves playing fetch, loves walks on known paths. Panda is very sensitive to loud noises especially to thunder/fireworks. Panda is house trained. Panda has been with family with 2 kids now ages 11 and 13. We had him since he was a puppy. We have relocated and have been trying to accustom Panda to new smaller house, smaller yard and much noisier than he was used to location. Panda had a lot of anxiety with the noise and as a result my landlord has given me a deadline to relocate him. He is ideal for an older experienced handler in a secluded area with a big yard. To help with transition we are open to letting miniature schnauzer go with him she is 9 years old and extremely smart dog, she walks without a leash, follows commands, house trained, understands routine and help keeps Panda in line when needed. He is accustomed to being more outside, except in the summer.

Story
Nico is a 2.5-year-old neutered male Akita on Long Island, NY. He is a loyal, devoted dog who bonds deeply with his person and thrives with an experienced owner familiar with Akitas or similar guardian breeds. He is calm and well-mannered in the house, fully housebroken, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. Nico enjoys daily structure, 45-minute walks, backyard play, and quiet time at home. He eats Arcana food twice daily and knows commands such as sit, stay, wait, down, paw, up, and settle. He has completed puppy classes and private training. Nico must be the only pet and should live in an adult-only home. He is naturally protective and does best with clear boundaries, consistency, and calm introductions. In the right home, Nico will be an incredibly loyal companion and steady presence. This rehoming is being done responsibly due to major life changes, with his long-term well-being as the top priority. He is a special dog who will be deeply devoted to the right person.
