As part of The Rescue Effect campaign, the ASPCA is collaborating with Walker’s Shortbread to promote adoptable dogs from various facilities across the country. Featured dogs are available for adoption in New York, Ohio, and North Carolina.
In New York City, Negroni is a friendly dog with a joyful disposition who loves meeting new people and enjoys treats. Another resident, Stella, is a gentle soul who adores cheese and seeks a patient adopter. She has a playful side and loves to entertain herself with toys.
In Pawling, New York, Daiquiri is a handsome dog who enjoys affection and learning new tricks, while Hibiscus is a fun-loving pup who relishes cuddling and playing outside.
In Asheville, North Carolina, Pecan is a shy but sweet dog who adores the outdoors and needs a nurturing home to help her thrive.
For those who can't visit the ASPCA facilities, numerous adoptable dogs are available at local shelters. Additionally, individuals can make a significant impact by becoming foster caregivers, helping dogs transition to loving homes. Fostering opportunities are available in Columbus, Ohio; Pawling, New York; New York City; Weaverville, North Carolina; and Los Angeles.
