If you`re looking for a dog to take on outdoor adventures, Tanner will go absolutely anywhere with you. He loves to run, hike, and swim and just generally getting out to do things. He may come on strong when he first gets out of his kennel, but he calms down nicely after getting out that initial burst of energy.

Story
Crosby was picked up as a stray in Syracuse and is about 47 pounds. He is an affectionate and independent boy who likes to sniff all the good smells on his walks, but doesn’t mind if you need to go for a run instead. He’ll be your chill bud any day of the week. Rain or snow or shine. And when it comes to treats, he’s very patient and respectful. He was offered chicken nuggets once and didn’t even try to take them until he was sure they were for him. He`s also playful, enjoying games of tug and fetch, and is an easy going calm boy when things are less exciting.

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats,
Story
Larry came to the shelter as a stray, and is one of our longest residents. At first, he was overwhelmed and scared, but after being with us for a year, he`s used to shelter life. (He doesn`t like it, but he`s used to it.) He can be a little aloof when he first meets you, but once he knows you, he`s a happy and playful guy. He loves to go for walks and even runs. And in quiet moments, he practices his technique for sit and shake so that when he meets his forever family, he’s well prepared to greet them. He`s spent some time in foster him, and his foster mom said he`s easy to live with and is very loving. He enjoys car rides, the snow, and being with his people.

Scooby

Boxer

Male, 3 yrs 11 mos
Syracuse, NY
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats,
Story
Scooby is our longest resident, and that’s because he is really not meant to be a shelter dog but has a hard time convincing potential adopters of that. He is a sensitive dog who gets concerned about stressful things in his environment. He has come such a long way with his anxiety and nerves with us in the shelter but what he requires is stability and consistency. He was in a temporary foster for two weeks and during that time he showed so much growth as he finally had a chance to settle in as a house pet. After some decompression, we found he wasn’t destructive, played with toys and puzzles, snuggled up on the couch, and even had some nice car rides (with only a little whining). Even in the shelter he is a gentle, friendly boy who follows commands, waits patiently for volunteers to leash him in his kennel, and is easy to walk. Although sometimes he does get spooked and wants to go back inside.What Scooby needs is someone with patience and a willingness to build trust with him once they bring him home and who can work constructively with him on his anxiety needs. We have a trainer who will help the new adopter transition Scooby into his new home. Everyone who knows Scooby, loves him!

Story
Wendell came in as a stray picked up in Baldwinsville and weighs about 45 pounds. So far we’ve learned that Wendell loves treats, although he’s still mindful and gentle when taking them, and loves to play tug and hang out with people he’s familiar with. He still needs a little work on manners but is coming around to be a very sweet and respectful boy. DOG-FRIENDLY
