Most animals at shelters will be euthanized, frequently by gassing.
Adoption and transportation information available on links.
Many volunteers generously give their time to rescue shelter animals and transport them to new homes.
Please support Spay and Neuter programs.
Have a space for a little guy to save a life?

DO NOT call the shelter and say you are adopting unless you truly intend on physically going to the shelter to adopt the dog. It ties up phones lines and is a waste of the staff's time to explain the adoption procedure over the phone for someone who is purposely not going to show up. They need every free second of their time to answer calls, assist actual adopters, process intakes, and care for the animals. More importantly, they will note the dog’s file that an adopter is en route which will prevent an actual adopter from saving the dog. This is considered a "fake adoption" hold and that is how dogs fall through the cracks and end up being killed.
For more information on a particular dog, email adoption@nycacc.org but ONLY if serious about adopting, and ONLY if you are able to GO TO the shelter in-person. Please do not email for status updates... the only thing you will accomplish is spamming their in boxes and causing REAL adopter emails to go unnoticed. Contact the NYC ACC at (212) 788-4000 for further automated instructions.See More

Newly engaged couple Claire Johnson and Mark Gaffey said it was their guide dogs who fell in love first and are responsible for bringing them together. The pair live in Stoke-on-Trent in England. They met when they were attending guide dog training. During the lessons their guide dogs, Venice and Rodd, were always playing together. Mark said, "The trainers said that they were the love and romance of the course, and they brought us together."
Once the course came to and end Claire and Mark arranged to meet for coffee as they lived near to each other. As their coffee dates grew longer and longer, the pair fell in love. Claire was especially touched by Mark's text message, just prior to his proposal. "I remember Mark texting me saying 'If you'd let me I could make your world a lot happier'."
Rodd and Venice are thrilled with the outcome. They share a bed and love being together. Claire and Mark said the two Labrador Retrievers will definitely play a central part in their wedding next year.
