Hello! I'm Pocky! Just like my namesake (pocky sticks candy) I'm all about sharing happiness and bringing people together! I am only 6 months old but I've been through a lot already! None of it seems to faze me though; I'm almost always happy to meet new people! The dogs I've met here so far seem unimpressed with me, so I try to give them space if they want it (but I think I'd love to play with one sometime). The one thing about playing is that I have to take it easy for a while. You see, when I showed up at the shelter, I was limping. The vets got me x-rays and saw that I had a couple of old leg injuries. They did a procedure to help my legs heal up better and I'm on the road to recovery! I hardly notice that I'm any different, so I hope you don't either! I currently weigh around 18 pounds. I'm still a growing girl, but it's hard to say how much I'll top out at. Maybe 30 or 40 pounds? If you're hoping for a happy-go-lucky lady in your life, I really hope you will consider me, Pocky! Stop by the shelter during open hours or call/email the shelter to find out more!

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.
