Our sweet little princess Cali was on NBC New York back in August. For those that missed it, here’s the video.

We want to thank Clear the Shelters for their support of our fosters!

Cali is a medium 35lb spayed 1 1/2 yr old female that we found last year roaming a cemetery in Philadelphia.

She is shy but warms up easily for snuggles, great with dogs, knows her basic commands, and is crate trained.

Her foster parents say she loves nothing more than to play with their dogs and lay down for naps 😊

Adopt Cali today!

Our very own Keiko made it on NBC New York thanks to Clear the Shelters

Keiko was found in an abandoned apartment with 5 of her siblings back in Feb and transported to the Animal Care Centers of NYC

We pulled her as New Hope Partners to help support the shelter.

Keiko a 4 yr old spayed mix medium breed is flourishing with her foster, 3 other dogs, and a cat. She is friendly to people too, obedient, well structured, good with recall, and crate trained.

She checks all the boxes on behavior and manners ✅

If you are interested in adopting, you can stop by Maria Hernandez Park in East Williamsburg, Brooklyn this Saturday from 12pm-2pm, to meet her!

Before and after pictures of the pup we helped yesterday. Thank you to AMC for helping this but get the badly needed matted fur cut, prolong nails off trimmed, rabies vaccine, and much needed hydration.

Polly came out looking like a totally different pup filled with confidence!

Currently, we have her with a temp foster Leslie Tang and will get another exam scheduled for Tuesday.

Thank you all for reaching out late last night to offer help!

It’s been 5 months since we pulled Keiko off the euthanasia list at NYACC and still no interest in this sweet and friendly girl!

Most people want a dog that’s well behaved and she checks all the boxes!

If you advocated for her to be saved, you should also advocate for her to be adopted!

❤️Urgent Foster Needed Today, Thursday July 30th.🐶

Some of you may remember our sweet Santi, who was once on the at-risk list at NYCACC due to medical issues that have since been adressed. Thanks to her incredible foster, we were able to save her just in time and give her the fresh start she deserved.

Unfortunately, due to unforeseen family circumstances, Santis foster can no longer foster Santi, leaving this special girl in need of a new foster home.

Our biggest hope is to keep Santi out of boarding. She's come such a long way, and after all the progress she's made, she deserves the comfort of a loving home—not another kennel.

We are endlessly grateful to her foster for opening her heart and home to Santi and giving her the chance to heal.

If you've ever considered fostering, or know someone who might be able to help, please reach out to NYC Pawsome Squad or santisocialclub on instagram. Sharing this post could make all the difference in helping Santi find a safe place to land. ❤️

We need a temp foster for Santi from June 16th-June 30th.

She’s a sweet 7 yr old senior pup that we pulled from the NYACC At-Risk List back on April 23rd.

She has a T3 spinal injury which we are waiting for AMC Rehabilitation meeting in July. She walks with a wobble but otherwise a healthy girl!

She is crate-trained, good on walks, knows her basic commands, loves people, and loves her treats!

If you can help us foster or share with a friend that has foster experience, Santi will thank you with lots of kisses!
