Saving More Dogs!
A MODEL SHELTER
A widely praised model shelter, we have recently undergone some exciting changes, and are rewriting the rules of sheltering. Yes, we take dogs in and adopt them out. We also go beyond that to give as many dogs as possible roles that benefit the dogs, their owners and the community. We have been actively developing partnerships and unique programs that are examples of our new theme...
Take a
Pledge!
Our top priority has always been to allocate 100% of all donations to the care and well-being of our animals, and we will continue to do so. A constant stream of needy, abandoned and neglected dogs, frightened and lonely, find comfort and care with us. We need your help to be able to continue our work!
A select group of our dogs spend six weeks at Green Chimneys, a nationally acclaimed school for special needs children in Brewster NY. We teach the kids to train the dogs. They gain self-esteem and a new skill; the dogs become more adoptable. The bonding and affection are mutual. Every dog in the program (100+ and growing) has been adopted.

Some of our dogs reside at a prison in Eastern PA where the prisoners learn dog training and behavior, and animal care.
Prison officials find that these skills and interactions with the dogs provide a calming influence on prisoners and instill a sense of responsibility.
The dogs are so well trained that they generally are quickly adopted after their residence there.
We rely on the help of our many volunteers. Volunteers are needed for the following:
-
transport dogs to/from the vet
-
socialize puppies
-
take dogs to training classes
-
walk & play with shelter dogs
-
help with office admin tasks
