Story

Benny is a nine year old female boxer mix. She is loving and sweet and loves to cuddle on the couch with her humans. She was adopted from Northshore Animal League. I am looking for a home that can take her in and give her the attention she needs. She is good with older children 10 . Those that can understand boundaries. There is still so much energy in her! She is ready to join a home where she can get 2-3 walks a day and further exercise to burn her energy. To describe her with a couple of words they would be: affectionate, anxious, protective, loyal.

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Wantagh, NY

Size

Story

Meet Marco – He is a survivor. This is a story that will break your heart. Marco came to us with another dog (who has since been adopted). On a frigid January afternoon, Marco was found chained to a tree (with the other dog). The ground was frozen, with no grass in sight. Two metal buckets were left for the dogs. One with frozen filthy water and the other empty. Both dogs were emaciated and hovering to try and collect any heat they could from the frozen tree stump. If that wasn’t enough, it is only due to a house-fire these (2) dogs were discovered. The fire department went to search around the home for anyone else left in the house, instead they found (2) dogs tied to a tree in the yard. Thankfully, Marco is with us now, and ready for a true loving home. Marco is very sweet with people he trusts but due to his past, he will need a savvy owner that can work with his guarding and show him the ropes on how to live in a home. Once he was removed from the property, he started to show some guarding behavior around his food (we can`t really blame him!) Marco will need a home that will continue training so he can decompress from shelter life and begin the next chapter of his life “Adopted”. He is appropriate for an adult-only home with no other animals. With everything this poor boy has been through, he still looks for love from humans, which is a great example of why dogs are the best creatures ever!

Wally

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Male, 7 yrs 5 mos

Wantagh, NY

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

Wally is a sweet and playful 7.5-year-old terrier mix who is looking for a loving home to call his own. Though, his journey through life has not been an easy one so far. He initially came to us in 2019 and was covered in wounds which our medical team quickly treated. Since then, he had left the facility 2x, but ultimately wound up back here in December 2024, through no fault of his own. Nowadays, he`s a big fan of playtime! Wally loves all kinds of toys—balls, ropes, squeaky toys, and more—but he can be a bit protective of them. He’ll happily trade toys for other toys or tasty treats, making him a fun and engaging playmate. Wally is a bit timid with new people while in his kennel, but once he’s out, he’s much more open and friendly. He’s great with basic commands like `sit` and `down` and is always ready to please. On the leash, Wally can pull a little but listens well to corrections. Because of his energetic and playful nature, Wally would do best in a quiet, low-traffic home with adults or teens over 17, as he is a timid dog who enjoys a low-key life. Come meet Wally today and see if he’s the perfect fit for your family!!If you are interested in learning more on Wally, please contact our placement team:E: adoption@hempsteadny.govE: foster@hempsteadny.govE: rescue@hempsteadny.govT: 516.785.5220#adoptdontshop #dogsofinstagram #dogsofig #adoptadog #bruisednotbroken #tohasdogs #dogsofny #dogsofnyc #dogsofli #adoptadogny #lookingforahome #longislanddogs #longislanddogmom #longislanddogdad #adoptionistheonlyoption #pittielove #pittiesrock #pitsrule #ifitaintpit #adoptables #adoptarescuedog #rescuedogsrock

Dexter

Golden Retriever

Male, 5 yrs 4 mos

Wantagh, NY

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Story

*Rescue Placement Only* Dexter is a 4.5-year-old retriever mix with a story that has so far, had no happy ending. After multiple placement attempts, Dexter ultimately finds himself back at the shelter where he started. Dexter is friendly with people he is comfortable with, but even with that, exhibits quirky behavior from time to time. While Dexter is generally cautious around strangers, he is social with other dogs, displaying tolerance and lower energy during dog-to-dog interactions- However- he may guard his people, once he becomes attached. He has good leash skills and knows basic cues such as sit and paw. Overall, Dexter will need an adult only home with continued training, structure and management of his quirks so that he can finally have the happy ending he deserves. He`s a sweet and gentle dog once he feels comfortable, and he thrives in a secure, predictable environment.

Zena

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Female, 10 yrs 7 mos

Wantagh, NY

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

It`s so hard to follow Zena`s back story, but from what we gathered, it seems that her owner was evicted and left her behind, tied up to a tree with no food or water. We are heartbroken for this sweet girl, but we know her forever family is out there somewhere. Zena is very friendly with people, and is being recommended for a home with kids 13 and up. This 9 1/2 year old golden girl is very petite, weighing in at 54 slender pounds. She is house trained, crate trained, and knows `sit`, `down` and `touch`. Zena is looking for a household the will provide her with physical and mental stimulation (she loves to play & do treat mats). She is also a total couch potato inside, so what we are are saying is that she is the perfect mix of chill and `let`s play!`. Zena is in need of a solo pet home. She is currently in temporary foster care and being a rock star, but still searching for her forever home!Contact us to find out how to meet Zena!T: 516.785.5220E: adoption@hempsteadny.gov E: foster@hempsteadny.govE: rescue@hempsteadny.gov#adoptdontshop #dogsofinstagram #dogsofig #adoptmeny #bruisednotbroken #tohasdogs #dogsofny #dogsofnyc #dogsofli #adoptadogny #lookingforahome #longislanddogs #longislanddogmom #longislanddogdad #adoptionistheonlyoption #pittielove #pittiesrock #pitsrule

Shawn

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Male, 5 yrs 5 mos

Wantagh, NY

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Story

*Rescue Placement Only*Finding himself alone on the streets, Shawn saw an older lady with a dog, and started following them. She called the police, who came to her location, and called us to pick Shawn up. Back at the shelter, Shawn is an energetic, playful dog. He takes a minute to warm up to new people, enjoys treats, and is very engaging. At this time, we feel Shawn would thrive best in a solo dog home with kids 17 years and older. If you are interested in learning more, and getting the most up to date information on Shawn, please contact our placement team: T: 516.785.5220E: adoption@hempsteadny.gov E: foster@hempsteadny.govE: rescue@hempsteadny.gov#adoptdontshop #dogsofinstagram #dogsofig #adoptmeny #bruisednotbroken #tohasdogs #dogsofny #dogsofnyc #dogsofli #adoptadogny #lookingforahome #longislanddogs #longislanddogmom #longislanddogdad #adoptionistheonlyoption #pittielove #pittiesrock #pitsrule #ifitaintpit
