Freya was with us for three years. She is a dog with lots of energy that would benefit from a decently sized backyard. Unfortunately, she doesn't get along with other dogs. Besides that, she's a nice, friendly pup that is always happy to see you.

Hello! My name is Chevy and I am currently in a foster home. I would love to find someone to adopt me.If you'd like to meet me...Please call Stray Haven. (607) 565-2859Thank you! ChevyHey, it's Chevy here and I would like to tell you about myself. I have been in foster care for a few months now where I have learned a lot from my foster parents and their resident dog! I am good with kids, other dogs as long as a proper introduction is done, but unfortunately I don't want any kitty friends. I also am housebroken! I have all my vet care done, I am up to date on shots, microchipped, and spayed. I do know how to walk nicely on a leash plus I don't run off when I am on my foster family's property without a leash on. I respond to my name and I will sit and stay when asked. My foster mom also thinks I am not barky! I love car rides and being on the boat however I do not enjoy getting in the water. I enjoy getting up on the couch at my foster home however I settle down in my own bed. I am a very playful ball of energy who will give all the kisses you could ever want. Please call Stray Haven to set up a meet with me, I can't wait to meet my forever family!Stray Haven Humane Society & SPCA194 Shepard Rd., Waverly, NY 14892(607) 565-2859, www.strayhavenspca.org Open hours:Tuesday-Friday 10am-5pmSaturday-Sunday 10am-4pmClosed on Mondays

Hi there, I'm Red! I'm a little shy at first, but once I get to know you, I'm as friendly as they come. I'm still young, full of energy and always ready for a game of fetch or a good run around the yard. I'm learning new things every day and I can't wait to learn more with you. I'm a good listener and I'm eager to please. I'm just looking for someone who can help me come out of my shell and show me the world. Adopting me means gaining a loyal friend, and a cuddle partner. I promise to make every day brighter with my playful spirit and unconditional love.Stray Haven Humane Society & SPCA194 Shepard Rd., Waverly, NY 14892(607) 565-2859, www.strayhavenspca.org Open hours:Tuesday-Friday 10am-5pmSaturday-Sunday 10am-4pmClosed on Mondays

Story
From Jethro's temporary foster family:"A report on my temporary foster dog from Stray Haven Humane Society. I picked up Jethro from the shelter on Thursday. He had just arrived Wednesday on a transport from Southern shelters trying to make room for animals now homeless because of Hurricane Helene. Jethro is a big, beautiful, young male pit mix who has been neutered and vet-checked. He is a little timid and apprehensive due to all the changes in his life but has settled in well with me as his temporary caretaker. We had a nice relaxing walk this morning taking in the autumn weather and colors. He is a large dog and a strong puller when excited. I've found walking him in the fields is more relaxing for both of us rather than in the woods. He gets supercharged with the smells and sounds of wildlife so he is harder to walk. In the field, I can see and check that we won't be flushing out any critters. He tells me that he is used to hunting wild boars down south but that might be him trying to pad his resume with fake news. I have used a leash wrap harness on him which helps a lot when he does start to pull.Dog meets have not gone well here with the resident dogs so I would say he is dog selective. This may be due to him still settling in but he doesn't appear to appreciate anyone who challenges his space. The shelter was told he participated in playgroups in the southern shelter so a dog friend is not out of the question. He keeps his kennel space here very neat and clean and doesn't seem to have separation anxiety. He does silly little puppy jumps when greeting me and appears to understand his size and not jump with paws up unless I am seated. He loves butt rubs!!We are working on waiting to go through doors since he started trying to rush through. He is doing very well with this! Also with sitting to wait for a treat that he takes gently. He is great at this!!I think he would be a very loyal loving companion for someone willing to put in the work with him. He will be returning to Stray Haven in Waverly by October 16th. If someone would like to meet him sooner arrangements can be made to have him at the shelter before that date. So if you are looking for a handsome macho man who has a soft sensitive side with some silliness thrown in I think Jethro could be the one for you ❤."Stray Haven Humane Society & SPCA194 Shepard Rd., Waverly, NY 14892(607) 565-2859, www.strayhavenspca.org Open hours:Tuesday-Friday 10am-5pmSaturday-Sunday 10am-4pmClosed on Mondays
