Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Sadie LOVES to be with her people but would probably do best as an only dog. She could be okay with another confident canine companion and a slow introduction. She loves walks and car rides but will need training for social skills with other animals. Sadie is a perfectly-sized smaller girl but very solid. She tends to follow her person around but is also content to explore on her own so we would require a fenced yard if she is allowed off-leash when outside. No children under 5.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.  ********************************************************************************** We show some of our adoptable dogs at PetSmart, Utica, each Saturday between the hours of 11:00am and 3:00pm.  Cats typically don't do well at events, so they only attend with a pre-approved meet and greet appointment.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Uno!   Uno’s life before rescue was heartbreaking. He had been locked away in a back room — forgotten, neglected, and slowly wasting away. His meals were inconsistent, and water was a rare luxury. His former owners claimed he “threw up when he drank,” so instead of proper hydration, they’d give him ice cubes… when they remembered. In just two months, this once-chunky boy withered to skin and bones.   Thankfully, someone noticed his suffering and reached out for help. And even though we were already overwhelmed, we couldn’t turn away — because Uno deserves so much more than to be discarded and ignored.   Since arriving, Uno has had a warm bath, a nail trim, all necessary medical treatment, and most importantly, love. He’s on high-calorie food to help him regain his strength, and he’s now safe at a kennel.   Uno is strong, affectionate, and happiest when he’s close to someone who cares. At the kennel, he calmly walks past other dogs without issue. He enjoys walks (though he could use a little leash training) and absolutely adores belly rubs. He’s currently being treated for mange caused by stress and malnutrition, but with consistent care, he’s expected to recover quickly.   Uno’s journey has just begun, but his heart is already full of hope — and he’s ready to share that love with his future family. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.  ********************************************************************************** We show some of our adoptable dogs at PetSmart, Utica, each Saturday between the hours of 11:00am and 3:00pm.  Cats typically don't do well at events, so they only attend with a pre-approved meet and greet appointment.
