My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Manon! She is a 43 pound beautiful girl who came to the shelter as a stray. Manon is a one-of-a-kind type of dog who, once you bond with her, is bound to be the best friend you`ve ever had! She is half rough-and-tumble and half snuggle muffin, who often enjoys parallel-style play like chewing a bone while sitting next to you. She is dedicated to her dental hygiene and will chew any hard toy to bits. However, she is very gentle with stuffed toys, treating them like her babies and grooming them gently. Manon is an avid hiker and will match your pace all day long! She is also a self-proclaimed branch manager and will even try to take them off a living tree to carry back home or chew up. When she`s not making her own toys or hiking the ADK, she is an expert-level food puzzler. Once her brain and body are tired for the day, she`d love to cuddle up on the couch in her donut PJs. Like many pit-types, she`s not a fan of the cold, rain or snow and prefers to lounge indoors. If you`d like to see for yourself what a wonderful girl she can be, stop by the shelter during walk in hours Tues-Sun 12-4:30 (extended hours 12-6:30 on Thursdays) or contact the Adoptions Team at 607-257-1822 x221 adoptions@spcaonline.com.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

ADOPTION AGREEMENT:

As part of the process of selecting an SPCA pet, you will be asked to complete an adoption application. After the application is approved, we ask you to sign an adoption agreement promising to humanely care for your animal. All cats and dogs are altered prior to adoption.

ANIMAL HEALTH AND VACCINATIONS:

All dogs which enter the SPCA receive vaccines for
* canine distemper (Adenovirus Type 2)
* parainfluenza & Parvovirus (DPP)
* leptospira bacterium
* Bordetella brochiseptica (kennel cough) intranasal.
All cats which enter the SPCA receive vaccines for
* Feline Rhinotracheitis (Feline Herpesvirus - I)
* Calicivirus
* Feline Distemper (Panleukopenia)
If pets are old enough, they also are given a rabies vaccination (Required by NY State law). The SPCA has regular veterinary care available for all animals and makes every effort to ensure that the animals are healthy before being made available for adoption. Cats are screened for Feline Leukemia. Dogs and cats all receive general worming medication.

DOG LICENSING:

All canines over six months of age are required, by New York State law, to be licensed before they can leave the shelter. Licensing is administered by the individual towns but can be completed at the SPCA at the time of adoption. The charges for licensing are not refundable if the dog is returned to the SPCA.

AFTER-ADOPTION SUPPORT:

We hope that your new pet will be an enjoyable addition to your household. If you have any questions about pet care, please feel free to ask the shelter staff or your veterinarian. We also have many free pamphlets on caring for your pet available at the SPCA and can provide the names of local resources for training or behavior concerns.
