Meet Susie – Susie was adopted from Adirondack Save-A-Stray. She is approximately 5 &1/2. She was very timid when I adopted her. I take her to work every day and being around people has helped bring her out of her shell. She is a well behaved and calm dog. Susie only barks when she is happy to see someone. I adopted a cat two months after I got her, and they are best friends.
Buddy - He's 7 weeks old. And we think he's part border collie or party cocker mix. He is vet checked, up to date on shots and more,

Bulldog mix pups- These precious babies are bulldog mixes. They are around 8 weeks old now, vet checked dewormed, vaccinated and more.

Skye
She probably got her name for her love of sitting in any available window looking out at the Sky. A petite young 1 1/2 yo spayed female. She loves being petted or sitting in your lap being slowly brushed. Skye is a little timid when she first meets someone and sweetly hides her face in your hand when she’s scared and wants to feel safe. Skye gets along with children and other cats but has yet to meet a dog. Lucky will be the owner that Skye chooses to adopt.
