 ALL our cats and dogs are in the NY area but can be adopted out of state to the purrfect furever home.  In some cases, we can help transport.  Zani's al fresco Summer Adoptions  follow us on FB to find us this summer as we will try new locations to meet the needs of NYC and support the little stores:)       Anyone who follow Zani's Furry Friends ZFF know we love taken handicapped dogs&Cats. Eliza will be our 1st yound toothless Pup. Meet 2yrs old 37lbs Eliza from Albania.Great with dogs and kids. Eliza was abused on the street. Peopel threw stones at her & her puppies, she was starved and ate rocks. Thankfully Mija Resuli rescued her. She's Super super sweet. She can’t live on the street with no teeth. So she’s in the shelter now. We are hoping to get her here in January & looking for a foster or an adopter before she gets here.     All dogs are located in NY/NJ area All our puppies need puppy play dates/doggy facetime so we recommend homes with other pups or daily interactions to keep them tired out, happy and social.     Facebook: Zani's Furry Friends ZFF (weekly adoption event info posted there) Twitter: zanisff  Instagram: zanisfurryfriends   Dogs are spayed/neutered, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, Rabies vaxed, and microchipped (not Lyme vaxed but we seriously recommend it!)  All are in the NY/NJ area but we will adopt out of state to the purrfect home and in some cases, we can arrange transport.  Please go to our site  https://zanisfurryfriends.org  fill out an application  Many of us (cats/dogs) will be on display on Saturdays or Sundays, weather dependent--please ask by writing us at dogs@zanisfurryfriends.org and following us on FB. If you are seriously interested in adopting one of us in particular, please fill out an application early Friday so that we can be sure to be there. Otherwise we decide based on other variables. Usually we are in our foster homes so this is a bit more stressful and a slightly artificial environment but we do want to be seen and find our furever homes too.   Please consider providing a home for more than one dog, especially if you are considering adopting a puppy. Dogs are pack animals and very much enjoy as well as need other dog company to learn to play, socialize and be good companion animals to people. The upside to this is that you won't feel as guilty leaving them alone and you get twice the love. Please come! And if you can't adopt, maybe you can foster or volunteer, and you can always donate! If you want to know about cats/dogs specifically being shown at our adoption locations, please email us info@zanisfurryfriends.org closer to the date so we know your interest and will make every effort to have that pet at the event or let you know how and where you can meet.  It is extemely helpful and speeds up adoption if the application is filled out prior to visiting us so please do that before coming to our weekend events. Our weekend locations are: Saturdays or Sundays, weather dependent  Follow us on FB, Zani's Furry Friends ZFF, for latest updates.

Story
Hi my name is Roxie! They say I’m a 1 year old bully mix. This nice lady found me tied to a tree and asked to take me home. She found a family to foster me, but they let me run buck wild around the house and I even learned to leap on top of the table. That nice lady came to take me to the vet for all my shots, microchip and spay. She said I needed to learn some manners. Apparently “table and counter surfing isn’t allowed. She crate trained me and I’m doing well with house training. I have a load of energy and loves to play with larger dogs. She said I play to rough with the small ones. I love to run, play, eat and sleep! I really need a family of my own and one where I will be shown what is expected of me. I promise I’ll love you forever. We also use the most animal-friendly transport on the road. Rescue Riders Pet Transport.

Story
This boy was surrendered due to the wife not wanting him around a newborn. Bob did nothing wrong and is a well behaved boy. He does need time to get used to new people but warms up pretty quickly. He gets along with other dogs and likes to play. He loves tennis balls and loves to chase them... he can fit 2 in his mouth at a time. He does well on a leash and is house broken. He does like children but will need time to adjust to their energy. He can get a little protective over what he considers "his" but is not a mean protector.... more bark than bite. Some added people socialization would probably help him. He is a good boy who was given a raw deal by his supposed family so he;s now looking for a new chance. He is located in Tennessee but can be transported through Rescue Riders.

Kissing QueenFound running along a major NJ highway, Smoochie's journey to safety was nothing short of miraculous. Rescued by a compassionate soul who couldn't turn a blind eye to this dire situation (despite having a car full of cats heading for vetting), Smoochie's resilience shines through even though she looked very neglected.No ID or chip noted and no one claimed her. Despite enduring a neglectful life, her spirit remains unbroken. Despite her past, she holds no grudges, and yearns to trust others so as long as you give her a few minutes (and some cookies!), she gives you her gentle wagging tail and her heart full of love. Woof-Facts: Name: Smoochie, Smooch Breed: Pitbull Weight: 50 lbs Age: 3 years Gender: Female  Health: UTD on vaccines, healthyForever home recommendations: Smoochie is quite loving. She seems to enjoy all people and prefers a home where people are around more than not. Smooch likes walking, hiking, sniffaris, cuddling, spooning, and snuggling.Dogs: She would do best as the only pet.Cats: NoCrate trained: Yes, but long term crating may stress her.House trained: Yes Personality: Smoochie is a bit shy with new people but seeks attention and company. She is great in the car and would be great on a road trip or running errands.  How did Smoochie find herself at Rescue Haven Foundation: Smoochie was darting through traffic on a major highway but her rescuer is a friend of ours who was in the right place at the right time. Smoochie is fully vetted and healthy and will be spayed prior to adoption. We are seeking an adopter or committed foster.September 27, 2024, 11:18 am
