Story
Nova is a spayed female dog who is up to date on vaccines and was rescued at around 12 weeks old from the Westchester ASPCA. She is around 1.5 years old, with an assumed birthdate at the end of February. She is very loving and affectionate. But has high energy and needs a home where she will get plenty of attention. She is currently in a home with a 10&7 year old, however, because of her high energy, she likely should not be in a home with children. She has no aggression issues when it comes to food, or toys. If you are an adult household looking for a forever best friend, please think of adopting Nova as our family just is not a good fit for her.

Story
PLEASE READ FULLY TO SEE REQUIREMENTS FOR ADOPTION Help us find a forever home for Michelle a beautiful 3-year-old female Shih Tzu who was rescued from a puppy mill with her sister Romy. She been through a lot and is now seeking a loving family who can provide her with the care and attention she deserves. Michelle, with her lovely cream-colored coat, is spayed and up to date on vaccines. She is ready to embark on her new journey with her forever family. While Michelle is almost housebroken, she may still require a little patience and guidance in her new home. She is slowly coming out of her shell and has shown remarkable progress since her rescue. Although she may initially be cautious around new people, she quickly warms up and will become affectionate companion. Michelle will need a home with another dog to continue to learn how to be the best dog she can be. Due to Michelle’s small size, it is essential that she finds a home with older children who can understand and respect their delicate nature. Michelle is eagerly searching for a family who can provide her with a calm and patient environment, allowing her to continue building trust and feeling safe. She deserves a loving home that understands her past and is committed to giving her the love, care, and attention she needs. To meet Michelle go to petresqinc.org and fill out an adoption application.  January 19, 2025, 10:47 am

Story
PLEASE READ THOROUGHLY FOR REQUIREMENTS JoJo (Josephine)(red) and Lillie (tri color) are Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. They are both spayed, current on vaccines and microchipped. JoJo is approximately 2 years old and Lillie is approximately 5 years old. They came to us from a puppy mill after producing many litters. That life is now over for them and they would love to be part of a family. These girls didn’t know what grass was until they came to us. Everything is new for them. Since we have had them and had to opportunity to get to know them, we feel it would be best for them to stay together when adopted. They take great comfort in each other. They are still learning to be dogs and will need a patient adopter as they continue to learn what life after a mill is all about. They now love toys which they have never known. Their progress is slow, but steady. They do not walk on a leash yet so a fully secure fenced in yard is a non-negotiable requirement to be considered for adoption.  They are both extremely sweet and will make great additions to the right family. To ask any questions or arrange a meet, the first step will be to go to petresqinc.org to fill out an adoption application.January 11, 2025, 11:20 am

Story
“My name is Leonard Skynard (Lenny), and I am guaranteed to rock your world, In a good way, of course. I am an 8-month-old mix of pure perfection; that’s what my foster mom says. I weigh about 65 pounds and am growing by the minute. I’m a good, very good boy. I am playful, but I also love to take a good nap. I am young, so I am used to hearing, ‘No, Lenny,' ‘Drop it, Lenny,’ ‘Give me that, Lenny,’ but I’m learning. I live with three other dogs, including one of my siblings whose mom adopted, and I love them, playing with them, and taking naps with them. I also lived with three other furry things that meow. I do like to chase them, but I mean no harm. I am crate-trained, and I go right in without a peep. I am doing great with my housebreaking. I am a fun guy. I would make a great family member to any family.” - Lenny Leonard Skynard was rescued in Texas along with his Mom and siblings. A good samaritan found them and reached out to us for help. The whole family was living outside in the heat and was severely dehydrated and malnourished. Poor Momma pup was trying her best, but they were just skin and bones. Lenny and his siblings each weighed just 2 - 4 pounds (at 10 weeks old), and Mom was just around 20 pounds when our Texas foster was able to pick them up. Lenny got sick and lost even more weight, but he wasn’t going to give up, and as you can see from the pictures above, he has fully recovered and is a happy, healthy pup these days. He is enjoying every opportunity to be pet and loved. He loves to follow his foster mom around and sleep on her lap. He is currently being fostered in NJ. Please get approved to have a meet and greet our amazing boy.
