Read more about Prada
When Prada was first found, she had an ulcer in one of her eyes that needed veterinary care. Thankfully, she received the treatment she needed, and the ulcer has completely healed. It did leave a little scarring, but it doesn't affect her or her vision at all. It's simply a small reminder of something she's already put behind her.
Prada is one of those dogs who is just easy to love. She's sweet, affectionate, and seems to appreciate every bit of attention she gets. We'd love to see her find a family who will spoil her with all the love she deserves!

5. Alia
Meet Alia!
Alia is a pretty little white Sato girl from Puerto Rico, about 7 months old and weighing 25 pounds.
Alia is a friendly, social puppy who gets along great with other dogs and loves people too! She's a sweet girl who would fit right in with a family looking for a young, playful companion. We haven't had the chance to see how she does with cats yet but we think she would be fine judging by her sweet demeanor. She is doing great with potty training as well!
Read more about Alia
At 7 months old, Alia is still a puppy, so she'll need someone willing to continue teaching her all the things a young dog needs to learn. She's a great age to become part of a family and grow up with them.
Alia is ready to trade her Puerto Rican roots for a home of her own, preferably one with plenty of love, attention, and maybe even a doggie playmate!
Our adoption fee is $400 and unless otherwise stated all dogs and puppies have been spayed/neutered, microchipped, 4DX tested (if age appropriate), put on heartworm/flea/tick prevention, age appropriately vaccinated, dewormed, vet checked and flown from Puerto Rico.

6. Dorella
Dorella is a gorgeous 3½-month-old Boxer/Shepherd mix with a beautiful brindle coat that really makes her stand out!
Her mom was a medium-sized Shepherd mix, and dad is a mystery, so we're expecting Dorella to be somewhere in the medium-sized range when she's all grown up.
Dorella is still just a baby with a whole lot of growing and learning ahead of her. She's at that fun puppy age where everything is new, and she'll need a family ready for all the adventures (and occasional puppy mischief!) that come with raising a youngster.
Read more about Dorella
With those beautiful brindle markings, she's certainly a little head-turner! Now she just needs someone to give her a home of her own.
Our adoption fee is $400 and unless otherwise stated all dogs and puppies have been spayed/neutered, microchipped, 4DX tested (if age appropriate), put on heartworm/flea/tick prevention, age appropriately vaccinated, dewormed, vet checked and flown from Puerto Rico.

7. Teco
Teco is a handsome 3½-month-old Boxer/Shepherd mix with quite the distinguished look for such a young pup! He has that serious, grown-up expression, but underneath it all, he's just a sweet little puppy.
Teco is a very friendly boy who loves attention and is ready to find a family of his own. His mom was a medium-sized Shepherd mix, and dad remains a mystery, so we're guessing Teco will be somewhere around medium-sized when fully grown.
He's still just a baby with lots of growing and learning ahead of him. If you're looking for a friendly, sweet-natured puppy with a face that looks wise beyond his years, Teco might be your guy!

8. Swiper
Meet Swiper! ❤️
Swiper is an adorable 3½-month-old Shepherd/Lab mix with the cutest little nub of a tail! His mom was a medium-sized dog, so we're guessing he'll be somewhere in that range when he's all grown up.
Swiper is just as sweet as can be! He's still a baby, learning all about the world and working on his potty training. Like any puppy his age, he'll need a family willing to continue teaching him the ropes, with plenty of patience, love, and a few treats along the way.
With that cute little nub tail and sweet personality, we don't think Swiper will have much trouble finding someone to fall in love with him!

9. Auggie
Auggie is a 7-year-old, 15-pound Shih Tzu who is just a happy, funny little guy with a personality that makes you smile!
This little fellow is sweet, silly, affectionate and seems to be in a good mood pretty much all the time. He's one of those dogs who doesn't have to do much to make you laugh. Just watching him go about his day is entertaining enough.
One of Auggie's absolute favorite things to do is bask in the sunshine! Give him a nice sunny spot and he'll happily park himself there for as long as the sun cooperates. He's got this relaxing thing pretty well figured out!
Read more about Auggie
And then there's his tail! Auggie only has a little nub of a tail, but don't let its size fool you. That little nub is almost always wagging, wiggling or moving! It's pretty much impossible to be around him without noticing how happy he is.
Auggie also loves other dogs and gets along great with his canine friends. He's a social little guy who enjoys being part of the gang and is just as happy hanging out with his buddies as he is getting attention from his people.
At 7 years old, Auggie is past the crazy puppy stage but certainly hasn't lost his sense of humor or his love for life. He's a really nice age for someone looking for a little companion who still has plenty of personality but doesn't need to be entertained every minute of the day.
Auggie is just a sweet, funny, lovable little dog who deserves a family of his own, a comfortable place to sleep and preferably a house with some really good sunny spots!

10. Kaylie
Kaylie is about 1 year old, 25 pounds, and has her priorities pretty well figured out: friends, fun and FOOD.
This sweet girl was abandoned on a very dangerous road in Puerto Rico, where she was not only at risk from traffic but also from other dogs in the area. Thankfully, she was rescued before anything happened to her and those days are now behind her.
Kaylie certainly isn’t looking back!
She is a happy, affectionate little girl who LOVES other dogs. Playing with her doggy friends is one of her favorite things to do and she gets along wonderfully with them. She’d probably be pretty thrilled to have a canine brother or sister in her new home.
Read more about Kaylie
There is, however, one thing Kaylie may love even more than playing...
DINNER.
Mealtime is hands down her favorite part of the day. Kaylie is not the type of girl who’s going to turn her nose up at dinner and make you wonder if she’s feeling okay. If the food bowl comes out, Kaylie is READY.
At only about a year old, she’s still young, playful and full of fun, but she’s also very loving and enjoys being around her people.
Kaylie’s life may have started with someone leaving her behind, but we’re pretty sure her next chapter is going to be a whole lot better.
She just needs a family, maybe a doggy friend to play with...and someone who understands the importance of being on time with dinner. She will be here in NY at the end of October and we would love to have a family waiting for her!

11. Gabriel
Gabriel is about 8 months old, 25 pounds, and has two main interests in life:
Playing with other dogs and FOOD.
Gabriel was born in the mountains of Puerto Rico along with his five siblings. Thankfully, they were rescued when they were still very young, and Gabriel has grown into one happy, social little guy.
He is an active boy who absolutely LOVES playing with other dogs. If there’s another dog around who wants to run, wrestle or act ridiculous with him, Gabriel is ready! He’s also very affectionate and friendly with everyone he meets.
And then there’s the food...
Read more about Gabriel
Gabriel LOVES to eat. Treats, dinner, snacks, someone else’s dinner — he’s not particularly picky about the details. If food is involved, you officially have Gabriel’s full and undivided attention.
At only 8 months old, he still has plenty of puppy energy and silliness, but he’s also a really loving little guy who just enjoys being part of everything.
If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate dog who loves other dogs and will NEVER let you accidentally forget that it’s dinner time, Gabriel may be your guy! ❤️

12. Hugo
Hugo is a 1-year-old Chihuahua mix who weighs about 14 pounds, and once this little guy gets comfortable, his personality REALLY comes out. Give him a few days to settle in and you'll get to see the real Hugo — and he's a riot!
This boy loves to play! He's comical, silly and has a knack for making you laugh without even trying. Once he's comfortable, he's quite the little clown and isn't shy about showing off his goofy side. He's also affectionate and loves attention, so there's plenty of sweetness mixed in with all that silliness.
Read more about Hugo
Hugo does great with other dogs and really enjoys having canine friends around. Being part of a multi-dog household would be just fine with him. He's also doing very well with housebreaking!
Now, Hugo does have a couple of little quirks that we want his future family to know about.
He's a bit fearful of children and teenagers. We think he'd be happiest in an adult home where he can relax and feel secure. A home with older children who are VERY patient, gentle and willing to give him the time and space he needs could also work. Hugo just isn't the kind of dog who wants everyone rushing up to love on him before he's ready.
And cats? Well, Hugo thinks cats are GREAT fun to chase! We haven't seen anything to suggest he wants to hurt them, but he definitely thinks they should participate in his games, whether they've agreed to or not. For that reason, a home without cats would probably be easiest, unless the cats are very dog-savvy and his family is prepared to carefully manage introductions.
Hugo had a rough beginning, and we think some of his fears come from not having the best experiences early in life. But once he trusts you, he's such a funny, loving little dog.
He doesn't need a perfect family. He just needs one that understands he might take a little longer to feel safe, and that the goofy, affectionate little clown underneath is absolutely worth waiting for. ❤️

13. Pumpkin
Meet Pumpkin — Loyal, Loving, and Ready for Her Forever Home
Pumpkin is a beautiful 40-pound, medium-sized girl with a sweet personality, a little nub tail that never stops wiggling, and so much love to give.
She's intelligent, affectionate, and still has a playful, puppy-like side. Pumpkin enjoys being active, but she's just as happy spending quiet time with the people she loves. She's a wonderful combination of playful and cuddly, and she has already mastered some important skills that will make her transition into a new home easier.
Fully potty trained and crate trained
Walks beautifully on a leash
Smart, affectionate, and eager to please
Read more about Pumpkin
Enjoys playing and spending time with her people
Forms strong, loyal bonds with those she trusts
Pumpkin tends to connect quickly with women and is especially affectionate once she feels comfortable. She can also develop wonderful relationships with men, but does best with someone who has dog experience and understands the importance of patience and allowing her to build trust at her own pace.
For her ideal home, Pumpkin would do very well as an only dog or with a larger male dog who is compatible with her playful personality. Because she can be a little too enthusiastic during playtime, a home without small dogs or cats would be best.
What makes Pumpkin special is the devotion she has for her people. Once she trusts you, she gives her whole heart. She's the kind of dog who wants to be part of your everyday life, whether that means going for a walk, playing in the yard, or simply relaxing beside you.
Pumpkin has so much to offer the right family. She doesn't need a perfect home, just one with love, understanding, consistency, and someone willing to give her the security she deserves.
Pumpkin is spayed, vaccinated, 4DX tested, and on heartworm, flea, and tick prevention.

14. Millie
Meet Millie!
Millie is a sweet, lovable 5-year-old girl who was found locally as a stray and is now ready to begin her next chapter in a forever home. She may be a Border Collie/Lab mix, but whatever her breed, Millie is full of charm, personality, and love.
She’s crate trained, housebroken, and dog-friendly, making her a wonderful companion for the right family. Millie can be a little quirky when meeting new people, but she warms up remarkably quickly. Once she feels comfortable, her affectionate, snuggly side shines through, and she’ll happily soak up every bit of love and attention you’re willing to give.
Millie loves adventures and going for walks, making her a fun companion for exploring and enjoying the outdoors.
Read more about Millie
After some activity, though, she’s happy to settle in nicely for cozy couch time with her people.
Millie does have a decent prey drive, so her future family should keep that in mind around small animals. She’s also respectful about her food and belongings with people, which is another wonderful quality.
Millie would thrive with a loving family who will give her time to settle in, appreciate her unique personality, and welcome her affectionate nature. If you’re looking for a cuddly, loyal companion with plenty of heart and a little delightful quirkiness, Millie might just be your perfect match! ❤️

15. Lola
Meet Lola
Lola is a
petite black Pit Bull with a big personality and an even bigger heart!
She is a fun, curious girl who gets excited about the world around her and loves experiencing new things.
Lola is an active girl who
enjoys long walks
and exploring with her person. She also absolutely
loves playing in the sprinkler!
She is very social and curious.
Chickens, rabbits, squirrels, and other dogs
can all catch her attention and get her excited. She will need a family who understands her enthusiasm and is willing to continue working with her on appropriate introductions, impulse control, and calm behavior around exciting distractions.
Read more about Lola
Because Lola gets excited very quickly,
a home with older children is recommended
. Older kids who understand how to remain calm and follow directions will be the best fit for her.
One of Lola’s biggest challenges is
separation anxiety
. She becomes anxious when her person is not around, so she is looking for a home that can help her build confidence and learn that being alone is okay. A patient family who can provide consistency, structure, and gradual independence will be important for her.
Despite this challenge, Lola is a
sweet, energetic, playful, and curious girl who loves being with her people
. She is looking for a family who will give her the patience, guidance, exercise, and positive training she needs to continue growing into the wonderful companion she can be.
Lola would do best with:
Older children
who understand her energetic personality
A patient and understanding family
Someone willing to work with her separation anxiety
A family who enjoys
long walks and outdoor activities
Continued training and confidence building
Slow, controlled introductions to other animals
Structure, consistency, exercise, and positive attention
Lola may be petite, but she has plenty of personality!
She is ready to find her person and a family who will help her learn, grow, and enjoy life to the fullest.
We will sponsor training for her once we find her a foster.
16. Goose
Meet Goose!
Goose is a happy-go-lucky, handsome boy with a big personality and an even bigger heart! This lovable guy is friendly with everyone he meets and has a wonderful, affectionate nature.
Goose is dog-friendly, but because of his young age and enthusiastic play style, he would do best in a home without small dogs or cats. Goose has had a difficult experience in the past and was previously attacked by another dog, so dog introductions should be slow, thoughtful, and allow him time to feel comfortable. With patience and proper introductions, Goose has shown that he can enjoy the company of canine friends.
Read more about Goose
Goose came to us as a stray and appears to have missed out on some basic training, but he is eager to learn! He is highly motivated by snacks. His leash skills are also a work in progress—there is just so much in the world for Goose to explore! With consistency and guidance, he is learning to focus on his person and become the best walking buddy he can be.
Because Goose is an active, curious young dog, he would do best in a home with a secure fenced-in yard where he can safely burn off energy, play, and enjoy some outdoor time. A family who can provide him with exercise, structure, and continued training will help Goose become the amazing companion we know he can be.
After some activity and adventure, Goose is happiest relaxing with his people and soaking up some well-earned snuggles. His sweet personality, goofy charm, and loving nature make him a wonderful companion for a family ready to help him continue growing.
Could Goose be the missing piece to your family?

17. Big Al
Meet Big Al!
The 65-Pound Best Friend You Didn't Know You Needed!
Born August 12, 2020, Al is a 6-year-old Standard Poodle with a BIG heart of gold. And we mean BIG! This handsome guy is currently 65 pounds of lean poodle perfection and is working on putting on a little weight.
Al has never met a stranger. In fact, we're not entirely sure he understands the concept of personal space.
Everyone is his friend. EVERYONE.
The dog snarling at him from across the room? Friend!
The cat who's hissed at him 20 times and finally resorted to throwing paws? Still a friend!
The squirrel across the road? BEST FRIEND MATERIAL!
Read more about Big Al
Al is socially blind and unintentionally pushy. He takes friendship VERY seriously and believes that if he looks at you, you are now personally responsible for being his buddy until someone else comes along. Pets, attention, and affection are always on his agenda! Be prepared, he’s a BIG leaner
A little more about Al:
Dog friendly, including small dogs
Cat friendly
Kid friendly
Potty trained
Kennel trained
Ball enthusiast…when the spirit moves him
Gentle with his toys (more of a casual nibbler than a destroyer)
Low-energy overall and an oversized lapdog at heart
Loves attention and affection
Currently does great with professional grooming
Bed HOG
Al does have a few quirks and things his future family should know:
He's a bit of a puller on walks and will need a head halter or martingale collar while you continue working on that
He's an alert barker, especially at loud noises or people passing his gate. He'd really like them to come over and pet him, obviously!
Counter surfing is one of his hobbies. Keep those snacks out of reach!
He may occasionally bounce around and attempt to initiate a game of tag with a squirrel. The squirrel is generally not interested.
Let's talk Poodle maintenance!
Al is a Standard Poodle, and that gorgeous coat doesn't maintain itself. His hair grows FAST, and he will need professional grooming approximately every month to keep his coat clean, healthy, and mat-free, along with regular nail care.
He currently does wonderfully with professional grooming, so haircuts and nail trims aren't an issue for him. However, his future family needs to be prepared to either learn to groom him at home or budget approximately $80–$200 per month for professional grooming.
If you're looking for a sweet, goofy, affectionate companion who believes everyone he meets should immediately become part of his social circle, Al might just be your guy!

FiFi loves her walks and is excellent on a leash. She does have an adventurous side, though, so if she’s going to enjoy off-leash time in the yard, a securely fenced yard is a must. This little explorer likes to see what’s out there!
Honestly, what’s not to love?
If FiFi sounds like your kind of girl, filling an application is the first step to meet her -

Adopting a dog in Albion
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
