NEEDS EMERGENCY PLACEMENT/CIDER 267997/NH RESCUE NEEDED/NYCACC/SIACC
C***r is a sensitive boy who is still learning that he can feel safe and secure around people. He came to us as a stray, so we don’t have any information about his past or previous home life. The shelter environment has been overwhelming for him, and he has shown a great deal of fear while in our care.
The good news is that C***r is making progress! He has slowly begun warming up to select staff members, is allowing minimal handling, and seems to be gaining confidence a little more each day.
These small steps are meaningful milestones for a dog who is still learning to trust.
C***r will need a patient, understanding adopter who is willing to give him the time and space he needs to adjust at his own pace. A calm environment, a predictable routine, and a gentle approach will be important as he continues building confidence. C***r is still finding his footing, but with patience and compassion, we hope to see him continue to blossom into a more comfortable and confident companion. https://nycacc.app/browse/267997

NEEDS EMERGENCY PLACEMENT/GHOST 268477/STUNNING BOY/NH RESCUE NEEDED/NYCACC/SIACC
Ghost is a handsome boy with striking blue eyes who is sure to catch your attention! Since Ghost came to us as a stray, we don’t have any information about his previous home or past experiences.
Ghost is a friendly, strong dog who can get overly excited quickly. When aroused, he may escalate to jumping up and using his mouth, so he will need an experienced owner who understands canine behavior and can provide consistent structure, clear boundaries, and positive guidance. Helping Ghost learn to manage his excitement and develop better impulse control will be important to his success.
Ghost is looking for a committed, knowledgeable adopter who can help him channel his energy, build good habits, and set him up for success.

Meet Walter, a 9-year-old gentleman looking for a special person to give him the love and care he deserves! Walter is currently dealing with a skin condition that leaves him feeling uncomfortable, but he remains tolerant of gentle touch. This sweet senior boy will need an understanding and compassionate adopter who is willing to look beyond his current challenges and give him the patience, care, and support he needs to feel his best. Walter may need a little extra TLC, but he deserves the chance to enjoy his golden years surrounded by comfort, kindness, and love. He is looking for a special home with someone who understands that caring for a dog with medical needs takes commitment and patience. If you have room in your heart for a senior pup who needs someone in his corner, Walter may be the companion you’ve been waiting for!
