Story
Champ is a handsome one-year-old, 48 lb. Basenji mix with gentle brown eyes, a soft coat, and an irresistible smile. Abandoned by his previous family in June while they moved, Champ spent an hour at the shelter door, crying for their return. The pain of that abandonment hit him hard, leaving him terrified and struggling. As he grappled with depression and kennel reactivity, we knew we had to save him and give Champ a fresh start. That’s when he took a life-changing freedom flight from North Carolina to Connecticut, ready to find his true furever family. Though Champ has faced hardships, his spirit shines brightly. With time, patience, and love, he has transformed into a lovable cuddle buddy who adores making friends, both two and four-legged. He previously lived with children as well so he’s an ideal family dog! Champ’s playful personality and charming demeanor make him a social butterfly, always eager to join in on the fun. He absolutely loves toys and is learning to fetch, often inviting you to play by dropping a toy in your lap. As a young pup who never had the benefit of structure or training, Champ is looking for a patient and understanding owner willing to help him learn the basics. He’s very smart, food motivated, and is working hard on housetraining and leash manners. Champ thrives in the company of other dogs and would be happiest in a home with a furry sibling and a fenced yard where he can run off his energy. If you’re ready to give Champ the love and guidance he deserves, you’ll gain a loyal companion who will fill your life with joy and adventure. His adoption fee is $400 and Champ is vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm negative, and neutered.

Story
Coooer is THE most wonderful dog around . His temporary foster says “ you can’t believe how wonderful he is with children “. Super lovable, super sweet. They really can’t say enough good thing about this guy. Sadly, someone took him out of the county shelter. He was found again in an area notorious for dog fighting. They believe he was going to be used as a bait dog. Hence the temporary foster. They’re afraid out him back in the shelter. This guy would flourish in any situation. Family, companion. Vaccinated, neutered, hw-. Ready to start his new life… are you ready to be a hero?

Story
Meet Mary Ann and Ginger, an adorable bonded pair of medium-sized rescue dogs who are searching for their forever home. These super cute girls have spent their entire lives on their own until they were recently rescued. Despite their rough beginnings, Mary Ann and Ginger are incredibly sweet and are now learning to enjoy the comforts of a loving home. Both Mary Ann and Ginger get along wonderfully with other dogs, though they haven't had the chance to meet any cats yet. They need a patient adopter who will give them the time and space they need to adjust to their new surroundings and discover the joys of being cherished pets. Ginger, who bravely underwent heartworm treatment, is now healthy and heartworm negative. Both dogs are fully vetted, spayed, microchipped, and on preventatives. They even tolerate baths and absolutely love being petted. Currently, Mary Ann and Ginger are being fostered in Seguin, TX, where they are receiving the care and love they deserve. If you have a kind heart and a gentle hand, these two sweethearts will surely reward you with endless affection and loyalty. Adopt Mary Ann and Ginger and give them the loving home they've always dreamed of.

Beacon, NY

Story
MING is a wonderful 2 year old mixed breed, maybe with some Basenji. He’s super affectionate and is a great snuggle buddy. He’s also a serious ball-player and is lightning fast. Flyball tournament, anyone? He’d be a champion. He’s also a great hiker, and on warm days he likes to dip his toes in the water. Plus, he has the cutest smile. He’s a stellar dog and we adore him at ARF, but what MING would love most of all is a home with people of his very own. Want to come meet this good boy? MING is all ears!
