My story

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

5 Year Old Terrier Mix Skittles is the sweetest little lady you’ll ever meet! She’s shy at first and needs a little time to come out of her shell, but once she feels safe, she’ll be your shadow. She adores being close to her humans, loves cuddles, and is happiest when she’s being pet and around her people. When she’s comfortable, she’ll charm you with her playful side and her love for long, brisk walks. She’s the perfect companion for quiet mornings and cozy afternoons, and once you’ve earned her trust, you’ve gained a loyal friend for life. Skittles is only 13lbs so the perfect companion to run errands with. She is learning basic commands, potty training and understands no and back! Adopt Skittles at rescuecity.nyc/adopt

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

The first step of the adoption process is to complete an adoption application in full at www.rescuecity.nyc. All of our dogs are in foster homes throughout the city. We do not have a physical location where we keep dogs.

More about this rescue

Rescue City is a no-kill, non-profit1 pet rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption organization. Our team of dedicated volunteers is based in Brooklyn, NY and serves the NYC metro and surrounding areas.

Our organization’s motto is: There’s a person for every dog, and there’s a dog for every person…it’s just a matter of time. This applies whether you are looking to adopt a pet, or would like to make a positive impact on the lives of animals. At Rescue City we believe it is our moral responsibility to defend the lives of abused, abandoned, and neglected animals.
We take on helpless stray and surrendered animals, as well as those at the top of the euthanasia list at local and international shelters. We place our rescues in nurturing foster homes while they rebuild their lives through physical and mental rehabilitation. Following a thorough – but hassle free – adoption process, our Rescues are placed in loving, responsible, and committed permanent homes. Every rescue is fully vetted and altered, micro-chipped, and vaccinated upon adoption. Our commitment to our rescues does not stop once the adoption paperwork is signed. We stress the importance of responsible pet ownership, and we educate our Fosters, Adopters, and community on what it means to be a good pet owner.
