Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. What my foster parents have learned about me in 379 DAYS!! - Since they found me on the street, lonely and hungry, they have learned that I am actually a very cuddly and kissy girl! I am so energetic and full of life!! - I didn’t know what kibble was when my foster parents found me, but quickly learned to love it, plus vegetables, apples, pumpkin and treats! - I can play just as much as I can sleep, I make the best napping companion! - I love daily walks and when it’s just a walk with me and my foster parents, I like to sniff, jog, get treats for sitting, and work on not reacting to all the other pups around my neighborhood (I’m doing better every day) - I’m potty trained! It took a very long time but I have it down now. - I comfort by cuddling and giving gentle kisses to make my foster parents feel better when they’re sick - I love vegetable snacks while my foster mom cooks, I sit and wait patiently for her to give me a little taste of carrot, sweet pepper, broccoli or apple! I won’t even check the counter or try to eat her food! - I love playing with my foster sisters (doggos too) but sometimes can be a bit of an attention hog, my ideal home would be one where it is just me or one with another dog sibling, with the right meeting ♥&#239&#184&#143 - I can sit, come inside, leave it, find my crate, come up, lay down, and find my bone. I sometimes need reminders but I am eager to learn! - I love puzzles with treat rewards, I have a really impressive nose when it comes to locating treats! - If I could ask for one thing from my new forever home, it would be to please be patient with me. My past is unknown to my foster parents, but it wasn’t one where I was loved. I need a home with lots of humans and lots of attention and loving, and I can return all of that love to you! ♥&#239&#184&#143 If you are interested in meeting me and getting in some cuddles, please apply for me today @BuffaloCares.org, I will be waiting for you! Hugs and kisses, Minnie! Adoption Fee $425     Someone who loves me so much but can’t have me sponsored part of my adoption fee so my adopter only has to pay an $250 towards my adoption fee!

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi, I am Ringo a one year old Pit Bull/Plott Hound mix. If you are looking for the perfect armchair quarterback buddy, I’m your guy.  I will sit next to you while we cheer on the Bills, discuss the awesomeness of Josh Allen or analyze why they didn’t go for it on 4th and 1. I’ll stay right next to you only asking for the occasional pet and I will give you a kiss in return. I love playing with my foster canine brother and if he is taking a nap I am good just chewing on a bone. I know some basic commands such as sit and come and I am doing great with my leash skills. I am completely housebroken and haven’t had a single accident since coming to hang with my foster parents. I do great in the crate when my foster parents are at work or sleeping. Are you ready to adopt the Bills newest fan and cheer them on to the Super Bowl together!! If so fill out an application today @BuffaloCares.org so we can enjoy the next Bills game together!

Story
Hello! My name is Lucille, aka Lucy, aka Goosey, and I’m a 3yr old pittie mix with a heart of gold.  I love to go on walks and play with my foster people. I’ve shown interest in playing with my foster fur sister, but she’s an old lady who wasn’t interested in me. When it’s time to relax, I like to snuggle next to you on the couch.  I do a funny little bunny hop when I get really excited, like when my foster parents get home or when they throw a toy for me to chase. I can be a little bit shy around new people, but I warm up quickly and then will gladly roll over and show anyone my belly for rubs.  I’m fully potty trained and I happily go in my crate when my people leave or at bedtime and don’t make a fuss. I’m very well behaved while my foster mom works from home and don’t make a peep all day! I’m spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all my shots. Do I sound like the perfect fit for you?

Story
Western New York, meet Violet! This itty bitty pittie mix with the most incredible ears weighs just under 40 pounds. Violet was a stray right here in Buffalo and was so nervous and scared at the shelter. Well, she's anything but nervous and scared now after a few months in her foster home. This outgoing girl has personality for days! Violet is just under a year old and is working hard at potty training. She's excellent in her crate both overnight and while her foster Mom is at work. Violet would thrive with a fenced in yard and is always ready to make fetch happen. Even though she has big puppy energy, her favorite way to wind down at the end of the day is to curl up for a nice nap wherever you are. If you're ready for a goofy lap-warming new bestie, apply for Violet today! ##2205767##

Hello! I’m Farley, a playful and loving 3-year-old pit bull. I’m crate-trained, potty-trained, and always ready for fun! I love playing catch in the backyard, chewing on bones, snacking on treats, and even crunching on ice cookies. At night, I look forward to a snuggle on the couch with my foster mom before settling into my crate for bedtime   Even though I weigh 60 pounds, I still think I’m a lapdog! I’m also great on walks and enjoy sniffing everything along the way. I absolutely love meeting all new human and dog friends. I’m best suited for a home without young children, and I know all my basic commands. My foster mom says I’m a big goofball who always makes her laugh! I can’t wait to find a forever family to share my love and joy with. Apply to meet me, Farley, at www.buffalounderdogs.com/adopt  ##2065597##

Hello everyone, I’m Stimpy! You may remember me as one of the long-term residents at the City of Buffalo Animal Shelter I’m a small but strong pittie with perky ears and a beautiful coat that matches my eyes. It’s hard to get a picture of me because I’m a busy boy!  I’m about 4 years old, crate trained and housebroken. It didn’t take me long to figure out that my foster mom loves me and I am working hard to be a good boy. I’m super eager to please! I would probably do best in a home without small children, but I would absolutely love to have a doggie sibling to run the zoomies with.  Due to my over-interest in squirrels and other outside creatures, probably no cats for me either. I love walking and being outside, and once I’m tired, I’m down for a good cuddle! It didn’t take me long to learn all about unconditional love…who’s ready for a goofy, lovable guy like me? If so, apply at www.buffalounderdogs.com/adopt  ##2261813##
