Adopt a pet

Introducing the sweetest and most loving puppy...Ghost! This little boy is a cutie pie who is bound to melt your heart with his pawsome pyrsonality. Despite still being a puppy, Ghost is a sponge when it comes to learning basic cues, and his house manners are impressive for his young age. Ghost is calm and confident, and is a wonderful playmate to his foster siblings. He is playful during regular playtimes, though he is also respectful when his older foster siblings prefer to chill or nap. Ghost is very food motivated; he thrives with attention and has shown to be an attentive and smart student. This little boy has so much pawtential that we think he will excel in obedience class. Ghost will do well in a moderately active home where his needs can be met so he can mature into the bestest boy we know he can be - this includes a yard with safe, secure fencing and an older canine sibling to play with and learn from. This darling boy is such a love that he will be an ideal addition to any loving home!

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.
