3. Maple

Puppy (4 months 2 days) · Female · Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / American Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat) · 71 mi from Albany

Meet Maple!

A curious and delightfully silly four-month-old Australian Cattle Dog mix currently in Nevada City, CA, whose beautiful brown brindle and white coat is matched by an irresistible personality and the cutest expressive ears.

This playful girl is around 50 pounds of potential grown-up adventure, with a heart full of love and a nose ready to investigate everything! Maple believes life is one big playground, especially when tug-of-war, crinkle toys, peanut butter, or a leisurely sniff walk is involved. And belly rubs? Those are practically her love language!

Read more about Maple

Maple is a smart little cookie who is already mastering "sit," "come," and her name. Like any young herding-type puppy, she needs continued training, patience, and plenty of opportunities to channel her curiosity. She can be a little jumpy and mouthy during playtime, but she's learning quickly. Even better, her trainer has generously offered free transition training to help her adopting family get started!

This friendly sweetheart loves meeting new people and has enjoyed spending time with children ages 3, 7, and 9, although her puppy enthusiasm means supervision and guidance are important. When introduced to a four-year-old Golden Retriever, Maple sweetly rolled onto her back to welcome his greeting. She could be compatible with a friendly resident dog, while her compatibility with cats remains unknown.

Maple appreciates structure and already follows a consistent daily routine. She's comfortable napping in her crate for short periods and generally settles after a little protesting in her pen. She'll thrive with an active family who can offer walks, playtime, positive reinforcement, and plenty of affection.

This medium-energy sweetheart is spayed, microchipped, and current on vaccinations. Her DNA test result is pending.

With her goofy antics, adorable ears, and eagerness to make friends, Maple promises plenty of laughter, puppy kisses, and memorable adventures! Ready to welcome this brindle beauty into your loving family? Contact adopt@joyfulpets.com to learn more about welcoming this charming girl into your loving home!

4. Posey

Puppy (4 months 2 days) · Female · Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / American Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat) · 71 mi from Albany

Meet Posey!

A smart, cuddly, and playful four-month-old Australian Cattle Dog mix currently in Nevada City, CA, whose adorable black-and-white coat and curious spirit make every day an adventure.

This sweet girl is a delightful combination of puppy enthusiasm and snuggly affection! Posey loves nothing more than chasing her flirt pole, squeaking her dinosaur toy, and solving food puzzles. And her favorite snack? Pumpkin! She's also a superstar student who eagerly participates in training sessions, especially when tasty treats are involved.

Read more about Posey

Posey already knows sit, come, and her name. She's making wonderful progress with potty training, with no indoor accidents reported, and happily settles into her crate for naps and bedtime. She's still learning about the big, exciting world, so patient encouragement and positive reinforcement will help her confidence blossom. Her trainer has even offered complimentary transition training to support her adopting family!

Although initially reserved around unfamiliar dogs, Posey showed lovely manners when meeting a four-year-old Golden Retriever, rolling over to welcome his greeting. She could be compatible with a friendly resident dog following thoughtful introductions. She's also enjoyed positive interactions with children ages 3, 7, and 9, although her puppy jumping still needs guidance. Her compatibility with cats remains unknown.

Posey would thrive with an active family who spends plenty of time at home and enjoys engaging activities. A fenced yard for exploring, digging, and playing would make this curious girl especially happy. She's expected to grow into a medium-sized companion weighing around 50 pounds.

This clever pup benefits from a consistent routine, engaging enrichment activities, and opportunities to discover new experiences at her own pace. She's spayed, microchipped, and current on vaccinations. Her DNA test result is pending.

Most importantly, Posey brings endless possibilities for laughter, learning, and heartfelt cuddles! Her playful personality and affectionate nature promise wonderful memories for a family ready to embrace puppy adventures. Could Posey be the playful little companion your family has been waiting to meet? Contact adopt@joyfulpets.com to learn more about Posey and begin your adventure together!

10. Shirley Temple

Puppy (4 months 28 days) · Female · American Pit Bull Terrier / American Staffordshire Terrier (short coat) · 96 mi from Albany

Meet Shirley Temple! This 5-month old incredibly social sweet treat came to us from local animal control after being found as a stray, and like everyone’s favorite mocktail, is sure to be a hit with her forever family!

Read more about Shirley Temple

Sweet Shirley is a star! Just a realllly good girl who has charmed every veterinary staff member she has encountered. They all say the same thing…”what a nice puppy!” Ms. Temple is an adorably pint-sized sweetheart. Her sweetness oozes from every cell of her being and she has been incredibly friendly with dogs, cats, and people in her foster home. This girl stands out and is a natural child entertainer with her bubbly personality and social nature. Our Shirley is not much for singing but will dance her way into your heart with her endearing quirks. If you dilly-dally outside, Shirley will sit down to patiently wait. Shirlz is happy to jump into the shower with her humans and loves to drink out of the bathtub faucet like a cat. A leaf dancing in the wind can mesmerize her for a good long while.

Her inky black coat is gorgeous (and matches everything!) and her wide and innocently bright eyes are meant for showing love. This kiddy cocktail would be the cherry on top for an active family looking for a great companion! Cheers!

Puppies are soooooo cute, and puppy breath is THE BEST! But puppies are a lot of work and take dedication, patience, love, training, and real commitment to turn them into amazing adults. And a reminder that while puppies are undeniably adorable, they also represent a long-term commitment. Medium sized dogs often live 12-16 years, and we’re looking for a family that’s excited to love, guide, and care for this puppy through every stage of life – from playful puppyhood to his senior years. A friendly reminder that our adoption requirements, including enrollment in an approved puppy training class prior to adoption, are posted on our website at: cropsandflopsrescue.org/adoptable-dogs/adoption-policies

Shirley Temple’s top 3 priorities:
1. A FUN family who is looking for a realllllllly good more mature and very social puppy!
2. A family willing to continue to work on house-training. Shirley has come SO FAR in her limited time with us and just needs some gentle consistency to cross the finish line!
3. A family who is looking for adventures for a young pup with energy to burn! This effervescent little lady loves to be part of the action.

He has a little longer legs and body. He is good in a crate, likes to be held. He is learning the wee pad and gets toys and treats from our adopters. He will get grooming and nail trims at the rescue so he will be fine with that. He would be a great dog for a lover of this breed. A smaller yard would be fine. He would be fine in a doggy daycare as he is very social. He was found as a stray. He is getting neutered and all his vaccinations at the Rescue. He is ready for his forever home. He would be best in a home with someone that doesn’t work all day everyday as he will need to finish up his puppy training. He would also be fine with children. We like them to be 8 or older. He is currently in the CCPAL Rescue in Texas. He can be adopted locally or we can work with one of the wonderful transporters to get him to Washington, Portland, Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. His adoption fee is $600 and transport is $200 to move him to another state. Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt to because of the regulations imposed by these states.

22. Wallace

Puppy (8 months) · Female · Jack Russell Terrier / American Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat) · 71 mi from Albany

Meet Wallace!

A goofy, snuggly nine-month-old Jack Russell Terrier/American Pit Bull Terrier mix currently in San Diego, CA, whose playful spirit and enormous heart shine through her adorable tricolor coat.

Weighing around 55 pounds, Wallace is an adventurous girl who loves hiking, camping, beach outings, and road trips. Whether splashing in the bay or accompanying her favorite person on errands, she's always ready for fun! After an exciting day, this affectionate sweetheart transforms into a professional cuddle buddy, requesting belly rubs and delivering enthusiastic full-body wiggles.

Read more about Wallace

Wallace is completely deaf, but she doesn't let silence slow her down! She's incredibly smart, food-motivated, and eager to learn. Following a two-week positive-reinforcement training program, she understands several hand signals, including sit, stay, down, come, and drop it. She's house-trained, crate-trained, and walks nicely on leash.

This social butterfly absolutely adores other dogs! Although initially shy, Wallace blossoms into a wiggly, playful, and confident companion with patient introductions. She also experiences some separation anxiety and can become anxious when left alone. Having other dogs around has made a tremendous difference in her confidence and comfort, helping her feel more relaxed and secure in unfamiliar situations. She's especially happy when she has a calm, friendly canine companion by her side, making a loving home with another playful, well-adjusted dog a wonderful match for Wallace!

Wallace needs a quiet, adult-only home and an experienced pet parent committed to continued training. She experiences anxiety around unfamiliar people, particularly men, and can react defensively when startled. She has a documented bite history involving unfamiliar men. These reactions are believed to be fear-based, potentially triggered by her deafness, being approached unexpectedly, or feeling vulnerable when someone enters her personal space. Her anxiety and defensive behaviors emerged after moving into a busy apartment environment with frequent unfamiliar visitors, suggesting that a calmer, more predictable setting may help her feel more secure. Careful visitor management, structured introductions, and ongoing positive-reinforcement behavior support are essential to helping Wallace build confidence and feel safe.

Wallace takes Trazodone for anxiety and experiences occasional urinary leakage during sleep, which has improved. She may need additional veterinary follow-up. She's spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Her compatibility with cats and children remains unassessed.

With patience, consistency, and understanding, Wallace has so much affection and personality to share. Her future family can look forward to silly antics, joyful adventures, and wonderfully cozy evenings together! Ready to welcome this extraordinary girl into your life? Contact adopt@joyfulpets.com to learn more about Wallace and discover whether your family could be the loving, supportive match she's been waiting to find!

Puppy · Male · Great Pyrenees / English Mastiff / Mixed (medium coat) · 81 mi from Albany

* Check Out My Video Album Below! *

Meet Jumba, a lovable Great Pyrenees and English Mastiff mix who is ready to win your heart with his sweet personality and wonderfully balanced puppy energy! This handsome boy has a medium activity level and a special knack for knowing when it’s time to play and when he should settle down. He loves spending time with his people, whether they have two legs or four, and shows wonderful compassion while happily matching your energy. Jumba can turn his playful puppy mode on and off, so he won’t wear you out by demanding to play 24/7!

Read more about Jumba in TN

Jumba is actively learning his manners and daily routines, and he’s picking up good habits quickly. He is crate trained and is working on his leash skills. Inside his crate, he is generally calm and quiet, with most of his puppy vocals reserved for letting you know when he needs a potty break. He has also shown that he can be calm and relaxed when the moment calls for it. One of his most adorable quirks? Instead of sleeping in a typical doggy position, Jumba prefers to curl up in a classic cat-bun pose!

This social fellow loves meeting new friends and has enjoyed opportunities to meet people through his foster home and veterinary visits. He has also been exposed to other dogs and is eager to meet them, especially when there’s a chance to play! Jumba has met cats too, and has shown gentle curiosity around them. While he hasn’t had the opportunity to spend time around children yet, he would likely do well with dog-savvy kids ages six and up, who can appreciate that he’s a big puppy still learning about the world. He doesn’t seem interested in digging, and his barking is about what you’d expect from a pup.

When the weather is pleasant, Jumba enjoys being outdoors, soaking up the sunshine, and exploring everything the world has to offer. He’s also a fan of chicken nuggets! Car rides are still a work in progress, and he hasn’t quite decided they’re cool yet. He’s also not a fan of getting soggy, so keeping this boy nice and dry is highly recommended unless you’re prepared for a little wet-weather protest!

Jumba’s ideal home would be with a moderately active family ready to help him continue learning and growing, preferably with another friendly dog to be his companion and playmate. A 5-foot securely fenced yard would give him a wonderful place to explore, sunbathe, and enjoy outdoor adventures. Most of all, Jumba is looking for a family who will appreciate his affectionate nature, respect his need for downtime, and help him become the best dog he can be. With his sweet heart, social spirit, and impressive ability to balance fun with relaxation, Jumba is sure to bring plenty of love and laughter to his forever home!

Read more about Pleekly in TN

Meet Pleekly, an adorable Great Pyrenees and English Mastiff mix who is ready to find his forever family! This mild-mannered, eager-to-please pup is a quick learner who is excited to discover the world and make his people proud. He’s working on his leash skills and learning household routines, but he catches on quickly and is happy to learn. One of the sweetest things about Pleekly is how he likes to walk right alongside you, hopping his way down the path while giving your hand an affectionate lick. He is crate-trained, has a medium activity level, and comes with a handy little on/off switch for puppy mode, so you can enjoy his playful side without being entertained by puppy antics every waking minute!

Pleekly is a social guy who loves making friends, whether they have four legs or two! He has been exposed to other dogs and enjoys playing with new canine pals. Having another friendly dog in his forever home would be perfect, especially one who can show him the ropes. He has also been around cats and shows interest while remaining gentle in their presence. Although he hasn't met children yet, we suspect he could do well with them; because he is going to be a big boy, a home with dog-savvy children ages 6 and up would be the best fit.

When it comes to house manners, Pleekly is a pleasantly quiet pup, making about the amount of noise you'd expect from a puppy and generally staying quieter indoors. In fact, he mostly speaks up when he needs to go potty! He hasn’t shown any interest in digging (yet). When the weather is lovely, you'll often find him happily rotating between his doghouse and a sunny patch of grass, soaking up the fresh air and enjoying the simple pleasures of a beautiful day. And when it's time to settle down for a nap, Pleekly has his own adorable style: he prefers to curl up in the classic cat bun position rather than flop upside down like a typical pup. And offer him a chicken nugget, and you will have a friend for life!

Pleekly would thrive in a moderately active home where he can enjoy companionship, keep his mind and body busy, and continue learning at his own pace. A 5-foot securely fenced yard would give him a safe place to explore, play, and enjoy the sunshine. Pleekly needs a family ready to help him grow into the wonderful companion he's meant to be. With his sweet nature, eagerness to learn, and irresistible combination of puppy hops and hand kisses, Pleekly is sure to bring plenty of smiles and affection to his forever home!

Adopting a puppy in Albany

Puppies usually go to their new homes from about eight weeks old, once they're weaned and have had their first vaccinations. Most rescues spay or neuter them before adoption, or include it in the fee.

Ask the rescue how big the puppy is expected to grow and which breeds they think are in the mix, so you can plan for the dog they'll become.

Puppies need a lot of your time: house-training, a few minutes of training every day, several small meals, and someone home often enough to let them out. A puppy class is a good way to start.
