About Sasha:Meet Sasha, a brave little 4-to-5-month-old Puerto Rican Sato with a heart full of hope!
Sasha started her life facing incredible hardships on the streets of Puerto Rico alongside her sweet brother, Sam. As part of a litter of nine vulnerable street pups born to a homeless mother, he had to be a true four-legged warrior from day one. She survived harsh weather, fleas, and the daily uncertainty of street life without a safe place to lay his head.
Thankfully, rescue angels stepped in to change her fortune, flying her and Sam to safety where they received full bellies, endless love, and the medical care they needed to thrive.
Now completely healthy, fully vetted, and parasite-free, this growing puppy has left his difficult past behind. He may have a small body, but at just a few months old, she has giant dreams of finding a perfect forever home. This resilient, intelligent, and deeply loving girl is ready to bring endless affection and puppy kisses to a family of his own.

12. Gracie
Young · Female · Unknown breed / mixed · 23 mi from Levittown




Gracie (GA) Needs Someone to See Her Worth When Gracie was rescued, her condition was nothing short of heartbreaking. At just 2 years old, this sweet Doodle girl should have been enjoying life, playing, loved, and cared for. Instead, she was found painfully emaciated, her body telling the story of neglect no dog should ever endure. Her coat was so severely matted that it hid the beautiful dog underneath, while her eyes carried the sadness of a soul that had been forgotten. But through it all, Gracie never stopped being gentle. Despite everything she has suffered, she still looks to people with hope.

She still leans in for affection. She still believes that somewhere out there is a person who will finally show her the kindness she has always deserved. It's impossible to know exactly what Gracie's past looked like, but we know what her future should be. It should be filled with soft beds, full meals, loving hands, and the security of knowing she will never be hungry, neglected, or abandoned again. Gracie has survived what no dog should have to survive. Now she needs someone willing to help her heal, continue to blossom, and learn what it truly means to be cherished. She doesn't need a perfect family. She just needs a compassionate one. Every rescue dog deserves a second chance, but Gracie's story feels especially urgent. After everything she has endured, we desperately want her next chapter to be one of love, comfort, and belonging. Please don't let this sweet girl wait any longer.

Here comes Portia (GA), a five-year-old mystery mix (possibly Retriever, Pit Bull Terrier, and/or Cane Corso) whose most important breed is, without question, irresistible.

Despite the pain and neglect she endured, Portia remains pure love. She adores people, loves other dogs, and will happily lean her 69 pounds against you as if to say, "Thank you for seeing me." The good news? Her neck has healed beautifully, and she's finally ready to find the forever family she's waited so patiently for.

She has the calm confidence of a much older dog, walks beautifully on leash, is crate trained, and has excellent house manners. She's smart, eager to learn, and, according to her foster mom, one of the sweetest, most affectionate dogs she's ever known. Portia isn't defined by what happened to her. She's defined by her resilience, her gentle heart, and her remarkable ability to love despite it all. Could those velvet ears be calling your name? Apply to adopt Portia at www.rescuedogsrocknyc.org. Her adoption fee is $450. She's been through the worst. Now she deserves the very best.Please be sure to reference this pet's name as Portia (GA) in case of duplicate names within the rescue.

Adopting a dog with children in Levittown
Bring the whole family to meet the dog before you adopt, and ask the rescue how the dog behaves around children your kids' ages.
Teach children to let the dog come to them, to stroke gently, and to leave the dog alone while it's eating or sleeping. Give the dog a bed or crate of their own to retreat to, and always supervise young children with a new dog.
Relaxed adult dogs are often a better match for young children than puppies, which jump up, nip and chew while they learn.
