Who Are Pet Celebrities?   The wonderful pets featured below are recommended by volunteers based on the most need, special
circumstances, or  simply overlooked and waiting in shelters the longest.  Please give them your consideration.  Many never get a home.

Meet little Brutus, a 5 month old yellow lab mix.  Brutus is a good puppy. He is energetic and needs training. He seems fine with the other dogs here.This is just one of the  pets awaiting adoption at " Happy Tails" Humane Society of Ontario County (585) 396-4590 Meet Isis, a very loving 9 month old female.  Isis is very loving. She would do best in a quieter home as she is a bit timid. She doesn't seem to like dogs at all, so a dog free home would be best.  This is just one of the  pets awaiting adoption at " Happy Tails" Humane Society of Ontario County (585) 396-4590
Phoebe is a 1-year-old female cat who has been at Lollypop Farm since April, because her owners had too many pets. She’s a little frustrated with shelter life, and is currently living in the shelter manager's office. Phoebe’s much happier now that she has some space to move around and play, but can’t wait to find her forever home! She’s a young girl who is still learning how to play appropriately with people; she gets a little rough when excited. Phoebe is sharing the shelter manager's office with a small 10 pound dog. They love to play and then snuggle together once they’ve tired each other out. If you'd like to meet Phoebe (#10261692), please call 585-223-1330 or visit Lollypop Farm, the Humane Society of Greater Rochester, at 99 Victor Road in Fairport.
Momma Mia is a 4-years-old Pit Bull mix, and she is one of the sweetest girls you will ever meet! She weighs 41 pounds, and could stand to put on a few more. Life has been a little rough for her, but she is still willing to trust. Walks are one of her favorite activities, and she's very good on the leash. She needs a little help learning how to take treats more gently. A home with children over the age of 12 is suggested since we don’t know much about her past. This dog needs you, and she will make sure you’re not sorry you gave her a second chance! If you'd like to meet Momma Mia (#11096205), please call 585-223-1330 or visit Lollypop Farm, the Humane Society of Greater Rochester, at 99 Victor Road in Fairport.

 Meet Vanessa!! Also at Webster PetSmart (HSWC), she is around 10 months old, female, gray shorthair with incredible green eyes.  Vanessa is learning to get along with the other cats - she is wonderful with people, but we think she was the only cat before brought to the shelter.  Best for a single cat home, or better yet, a home with an experienced cat person who can help her integrate with other cats.   She wants to play with the other cats, but is unsure.  Picture does not reflect how pretty she is.   315 946 3389   Humane Society of Wayne County

Jewel is a very nice pure bred German Shepherd and a good size at about 60 pounds. She is 6 yeras old and hasn't had an easy life so far but that has all changed. Jewel loves to go for walks and car rides. She is so happy when she is with you. She is a little too interested in the cats here so I would recommend a home without cats. She has been a wonderful mother to her babies but now it her turn to be loved on. She will be spayed before adoption.

Magpie and her brother (now adopted)  were found in an abandoned cooler on it's way to the dump. Thank goodness someone heard their little cries. We figured they were about 10 days old and had been without their mother for a couple days when we got them. They are now happy, healthy little kittens. Magpie has the cutest stripe down her nose. She is so lovable, she comes running and purring when I go into her room. P   Another Chance Ranch,   papillon1254@rochester.rr.com
Meet Regina and Ricky, 9 month old lab mixes (cube to right)! This brother and sister have been waiting in an outdoor run for lack of foster home(s).  For most of their young lives they have either been in a shelter or behind a chain link fence.   Unfortunately, black dogs are often overlooked.    Regina loves to chase balls and curl up in your lap. She is kind, loving, and learns your routine very quickly. She is very affectionate, super snuggly and loves attention, something she rarely had. She is full grown, weighs about 30 lbs.
 Ricky is very affectionate and loves getting human attention, again, something he rarely had. He is super friendly, playful, loving and attentive. He  is laid back and easy going, always wanting to be by your side, a real lover boy. He already knows how to retrieve a ball and will bring it back... His foster home has also taught him sit as well. He and his sister Regina are two of the most wonderful dogs you will ever meet.  They are looking for a place to call home and be spoiled rotten with lots of love'n.   They may be together or separately - they just need a home!   Email duffysfriendsdogs@yahoo.com   Duffy's Friends, Inc.

Special Favorite of Webster PetSmart Volunteers!!   Peanut.   Bugsy's (Judy's comments).  Peanut was a built in babysitter for the human volunteers at Webster PetSmart. .  She played and wrestled with all kittens and youngster.   She is a wee bit  shyer with people preferring to herd the kittens and work the room.   We think she must have had kittens at one time as she is so maternal toward them. Soft as silk with incredible eyes, she is a wonderful cat. She is looking for a stable home where she can relax.   At three years of age, she too is  eligible for HSWC's  Adult Companion Program - free to qualified  adult adopters over 50 years of age.  315 946 3389   Humane Society of Wayne County

Meet Spikey a 1 year old, Neutered, Lab/ Hound mix.   

Spikey is a wonderful dog for an active, caring forever family who are looking for a companion to love.  He’s a big love muffin man who loves to run and play and snuggle close for affection.  Spikey is smart, listens well, and should learn basic obedience quickly.  He also appears to be housetrained.  He works for treats and is already learning to walk on a loose leash.   Spikey would love a home with a fenced in yard where he could run and play with his new family. 

Please stop by and pay Spikey a visit, you might find yourself a new best friend willing to go on all sorts of adventures with you.

Hello! Hi Folks. My name is Lady, and I'm a Norwegian Elkhound mix. I have been through quite a lot lately. Sadly, my owner passed away, so I was taken to a cold, noisy shelter that I didn't like much. Now I am in a foster home with a few other dogs. I enjoy the company, but I'm eight years old and the youngsters can be a little rambunctious. Any seniors out there who know what I'm talking about? It's great to visit with the grandkids but always a relief to send them home. That said, I'm a perfect candidate for the seniors for seniors program. Read more!  Dee at ponchsfolks@aol.com   Blue Moon Meadows Adoptions!  My name is Peanut. I am a 11 month old, 11 pound Chihuahua that found my way to Rudy's Rescue - No I am not a Lab but who could resist this face?  
If you are looking for a sweet companion - Here I am! I was given up because my Mom went into the service and could no longer keep me. I am crate trained and love to sit on your lap or sleep in your bed if you will let me. I am fine with other dogs, cats and kids.     Rudy's Rescue - Upstate NY Labrador Retriever Rescue
Sugar is a 6 month old long-hair calico girl rescued with her 2 sisters, Molly and Spice from a backyard. She is an active, social, and curious girl with lovely silky fur who loves to tussle with her sister Molly. Sugar is learning to love pets and scratches. She is friendly to other cats, but has no exposure to dogs. She may be adopted as a single kitten if there is a kitten-friendly cat in the home, although we do like to see siblings adopted as a pair.

Agin is a adult beagle mix, neutered.   This happy fellow is good on a leash and good with other dogs Agin is about 3-4 years old. He was left with a relative and has been kept outside since. At his prior home, he was housebroken - so he probably needs a short refresher course. He is a nice guy with a big smile!

Hi! My Name is Sammy! I was lost on the mean streets, cold, hungry and lonely. But even that didn't daunt my friendly and loving big heart. All could see it, the lady who fed me, anyone who came near me, that I didn't belong outside. All of me cries out for a loving home and companionship, with eternal, unconditional love in return. An only cat home would be ideal. I would be all the cat you'd need. Love, Sammy   Pet Adoption Network     Delightful...Darling...Delilah! This sweetheart was rescued whilst being mistaken for a toy and getting tossed about by a couple young boys. She will just collapse at the chance to be petted. What a loveable girl! Playful and loves other cats as well. Originally named Samson when thought to be a boy, it only made sense to change her name to Delilah, and this delightful darling seems to love her name! She is so very affectionate and happy. Read More!    Paws and Purrs Rescue, Inc   342-1132  pennysaver37@yahoo.com

Sherlock was admitted in December of 2009. This fine man is  2 or 3 years old. He is a lump who likes to lay on your feet or next to you on the couch. He has a naughty habit of giving love bites but once you've chastised him a couple times, he figures it out... Probably best in a home with kids 8 and up, so no one gets a nibble they aren't prepared for!! Super sweet boy found as a stray. This pet is available from Four Legged Friends Animal Adoptions,   , Penfield NY   585-248-2920
