My personality

My story

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

Jack is a gentleman who's looking for a loving home with his mom, Laylabelle!

These two were surrendered to the NYC ACC after their first family was evicted from their home, and while Layla was whisked off to get life-saving surgery, Jack was left in the shelter and watched his friends get adopted, while the person who was supposed to adopt Jack never came.

Luckily for us, we heard that he was still there and were able to pull him instead, hoping that having a dog she knew would help Laylabelle settle and come out of her shell. And boy, did it!

We're not 100% sure that Laylabelle is his mom, but based off their ages and how they reacted when they first saw each other again, that's our best guess. What we do know for sure is that these two have been basically inseparable since they've reunited and we couldn't be happier that they are able to be together again! And will hopefully never have to be separated again!

These two are both super sweet and gentle but we are looking to place them into a home without any younger kids. We haven't cat tested them yet, but they would do great in a home with other dogs!

If you'd like to see some videos of this adorable pair, you can check out our Facebook or Instagram accounts, where we were able to record their heartwarming reunion and you can hear Layla tell us all about how excited she is to have Jack back with her.

And if you are interested in adopting this adorable duo, you can fill out an adoption application for them on our website, waywardranch.org!

More about this rescue

Our Mission: To provide a quality life to the animals that need it most.

Wayward Ranch Animal Sanctuary, Inc. is a 501c3, tax exempt non-profit organization and all donations to our sanctuary are tax deductible.

The Dream:

Wayward Ranch was founded by three friends who, after working for other rescues for a long time, realized there was something missing from the average rescue model. No animal is perfect, and in the typical shelter system any behavioral concerns an animal had coming in are just exacerbated the longer they are kenneled or caged waiting for a home.

Many local shelters have taken to shipping puppies up from the south because they are more “adoptable” than the shelter animals we have here. However, this just floods are market and takes homes and resources from our local animals who are suffering as a result.

We are committed to a different type of rescue experience. We are a unique combination of adoption and sanctuary facility, taking the pressure of euthanasia away from animals who may not be generically adoptable. We also help our animals thrive, rather than deteriorate, as they wait for forever homes using a combination of enrichment and training techniques.
