Some of our wonderful pets looking for forever homes.
We have some awesome dogs for adoption and would love to help you find your perfect companion. If there is a dog on our site that interests you, the first step is to put in an application here and let us know you are interested in a certain dog on your application.
You can also email us at rambini427@gmail.com for more information on a particular dog you are interested in.
As always our dogs are placed not on a first come first serve basis, but based on who is the best fit for the dog. It may take some time to go through all of the applications, so we appreciate your patience. A reminder that we do conduct home visits and therefore applicants must live within 50 mile radius of Albany, NY.
Thank you for helping us make these wonderful animals wag their tails in joy.

Skipper has such soulful eyes - especially if holding a treat :0)
Imagine Skipper looking at you this way - all he is love
Male, Terrier Mix, 12 pounds, Senior, ca. 9 yrs:
Sweet, sensitive, and full of love to give — Skipper is a 9-year-old terrier mix who’s been through a lot, but he’s ready to find the peaceful, loving home he truly deserves.
Skipper came from a home with too many dogs and not enough attention, so he’s still learning how wonderful human love can be. At just 12 pounds, he’s the perfect size for snuggles, but he needs a bit of time to warm up to new people. Once he knows you, though? He’s your best friend for life. 💕
🐶 Why You'll Love Skipper:
Crate trained and well-mannered in the home
Gets along beautifully with other dogs
Fully vetted and neutered – ready to go!
A gentle companion who just wants a calm, quiet place to feel safe
💤 Skipper would thrive in a home without young children, where he can enjoy a peaceful environment and build trust at his own pace. He's not the life-of-the-party type — more like the loyal sidekick who’s always there when it matters most.
If you have a quiet heart and a cozy space with a fenced yard, Skipper is ready to fill it with love. 💗

Odis looking handsome
Odin on patrol - he is a curious pup who will alert to intruders
I am a terrible photographer - but wanted to show you him on the move.
