While our volunteers will try to respond to you as quickly as possible, it is helpful if you review the below information about our adoption process before emailing:LISTED BREED(S) & AGE: We are taking our best guess on age, breed, and size when fully grown, based on the puppy's/dog's physical appearance and what we might have learned about one or both parents depending on the situation. NOTE We rarely know a dog's exact age, nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time. Because we often do not have access to medical records at the time that we are listing for dogs for adoption, there are sometimes discrepancies between what is posted on their profile and what might be listed on a dog's medical records.SNARR'S ADOPTION PROCESS: The first step in adopting or meeting a SNARR dog/puppy is to fill out an application at https://snarrnortheast.org/adopt/. Once we receive your application, one of our adoption application processors will contact you, review our adoption process with you, and answer any additional questions you may have. We do not go on a first-come-first-serve basis for adoptions, but on best fit for a family and most importantly the puppy or dog. MEETING ADOPTABLE DOGS: Meet and greets will not be scheduled until after your adoption application has been fully processed and approved by one of our adoption processors.APPLYING ONLINE: If you fill out an online application, please do so from a computer (not a mobile device), make sure you answer ALL the questions in a

2. Betsy
Senior · Female · Pit Bull Terrier / Terrier / Mixed




Name: BetsyAge: 9.5Current Weight: 65Rescued from: Texas*Adoption fee: $400Meet Betsy; also known as Betz Betz, Da Betz, Betz and quite possibly your new favorite potato. Some dogs make friends wherever they go. Betsy has practically made a career of it.She has visited nursery schools to help teach little ones about rescue dogs, spent time at multiple schools and children’s camps, and attended a large childhood cancer event. Through it all, Betsy has been a social, affectionate rockstar; making friends, collecting love, and showing people just how wonderful a rescue dog can be.That’s the Betsy we know and love.
Read more about Betsy
A sweet, friendly and very social girl who loves people, has been wonderful with children of all ages, and loves other dogs. She’ll make you smile just by being herself. And when her social calendar clears? She’s perfectly happy to return to her other calling: being a potato. Oh and Betsy LOVES to give kisses. Lots and lots of kisses if you will let her. Now a senior, Betsy has experienced far too much bouncing around through sad circumstances. A dog who has brought so much happiness to others deserves one final, wonderful home where she can settle in, feel secure, and spend her remaining years being someone’s cherished girl.There is one important part of Betsy’s story her future family needs to understand. Her family must be committed to preventing escapes, using a secure fence or leash, and carefully managing doors, gates, and transitions. Betsy has bitten in the past ( thankfully nothing too scary or serious) when she escaped and was running loose. This is serious, even though it is very different from the affectionate, easygoing dog we know in everyday life. When safely contained, ther are not any concerns. Her wonderful history with people and children matters but we want to be forthcoming regarding her bites. We want a family who understands both, and who can give her the structure and security she needs while appreciating the incredibly special dog she is.Betsy has also done very well during introductions to calm, stationary cats. Her response to cats who run or dart around remains uncertain, so a home with cats would need further consideration.Somewhere out there is someone with a soft spot for a senior potato, a secure home, and room in their heart for Da Betz. She’s spent so much of her life making friends. Now she deserves a family who stays. Betsy cannot be adopted or fostered into the state of Connecticut.To apply to adopt, fill out an application at https://snarrnortheast.org/adopt/PLEASE CLICK HERE FOR FAQs

Adopting a dog in Putnam County
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.
