I love this agency! Have adopted several adult dogs throughout the past 20 years: Scotty and Chula (2 for one special on a Presidents Day years ago); my beloved beagle, Sammy, who we adopted the same day his owner dropped him off because of personal health issues. Last, but surely the most needy, was Honey Girl! Shed been a breeder dog down south, kept in a cage since shed been born, but was a Katrina rescue. When I first saw her at Adopt a Dog, she had just given birth, but her pups had been euthanized because of the storm. Thin, ragged, nipples hanging down to the ground, she screamed for love. We took her that same Christmas Eve and nursed her back to health. Like the others, we miss and love them all. Please adopt if you can! Love and caring IS contagious.
I was disappointed with how they make their decisions. There is obvious preference to families who have adopted from them before. We were looking for a specific breed. They gave the dog to another family who already had the breed, even though we applied first. It was clear we bonded with the dog and we felt the dog picked us, but clearly that didnt matter with this place. They were also insensitive asking if we wanted another dog at the same time they tell us they picked another family.

2022-04-03We adopted our baby Cole. The process was smooth more affordable than most. We ended up with a healthy, smart and highly trainable dog. We have had him 3 weeks and he loves our other dog and all of his humans. He is part lab and pit bull with a bit of hound. Smart as a whip

2020-10-13We fostered a dog for Adopt-A-Dog and they were so helpful, thorough, and supportive as we went through the process. The dogs in their care are amazingly taken care of and trained very well. Kelly and Tara are wonderful and made the entire experience fun. I cant recommend them enough.

2020-08-03We just adopted a wonderful 8 year old Lab from this organization - they are beyond amazing and the love they have for these dogs is apparent. The care and training they provide for the dogs is superb - they know them inside out and will heap all of that knowledge onto you so you are well equipped to welcome them into their forever homes. Love this place, please consider adopting their senior dogs

2020-05-13Extremely knowledgeable, patient, and caring staff. We were looking for an older dog that would get along with our cat, Kelly made sure we found the perfect fit. Tara the trainer/behavior manager gave us a lot of tips to deal with our dogs separation anxiety and fear aggression (which I hadn’t dealt with before) and it’s been 9 months and our dog is thriving! Couldn’t recommend this place more!

2018-03-16We adopted a great pit bull mix from Adopt-A-Dog, named Missy. She was around 6 months when we got her, and we had many years of fun and enjoyment with her. She was a super-A+ dog, a little zany sometimes, but a great great dog. We believe she was from New Rochelle. And, Adopt-A-Dog is an excellent place. They are very good with their dogs, extremely helpful, overall very excellent.

2019-10-16Everyone we’ve worked with at Adopt-A-Dog has been just wonderful. We’ve enjoyed being able to help in their mission to secure loving forever homes for dogs in need. We love supporting their fantastic Puttin’ on the Dog event each year and look forward to continuing to work with them in the future!

2020-07-11We’ve adopted three dogs from Adopt-a-Dog over the years. Two shitzus at once, who our only child adored and played with all the time.After they crossed the Rainbow 🌈 Bridge, weadopted a Special Needs border collie. He had been abused by former male owners. Also, kidsthrew acid on him and his fur never grew back.He was with us 13 years and was very loyal,protective of me, and let our two grandkids play with him even as toddlers. After he crossed the Rainbow 🌈 Bridge I reached out to the Adoption Coordinator about a specific dog. Shetold me that dog wasn’t as tolerant of smallchildren. This was important as we take care ofour 3 year old granddaughter M-F. She said she’d keep an eye out for a more appropriate dog for us.
