Adopt a pet

This gorgeous girl is Blair, and if you think she looks pyrfect in the pictures, she is even more pyrfect in real life! For whatever reason, this lovely girl was not adequately cared for prior to coming into rescue, and we are so thankful for everyone who has chipped in to bring this girl to us. Blair has so much love to give, and her biggest desire is to have her own family that she can love furever and ever. Blair is the kind of girl who, once bonded to you, is bonded for life. She has lovely house manners and is content to be by your side no matter what you are doing. Blair is playful, both with her hooman foster family and with her canine foster siblings. She makes the cutest moves when initiating play, and her excitement is contagious! This pretty girl has both the good looks and the most pyrfect temperament, what more can you pawssibly ask for? Wait no longer and show her all you have planned for the upcoming holidays! We are pawsitive that Blair will be the icing on the cake for all your holiday celebrations, as well as all of your every day celebrations for many years to come!

NYS Registered Rescue # RR102

Our goal is to assess every application on its own merits. Key considerations are: 1) the experience of the applicant with large breed dogs 2) children in the household or regularly visiting the household are ready for a large-breed dog who is a guardian by nature and 3) the sex of other dogs currently residing in the household to avoid same-sex aggression issues. For puppies under six months old, the applicant’s ability to socialize the puppy with older dogs is a priority.
