Hours: We are open daily from 11am until 4pm, although you must have an adoption appointment to see our animals.  This way we can make sure we have the staff to spend time with you and that have a knowledge of the pet you are interested in.  Please fill out an adoption application FIRST so we can schedule an appointment for you! (You can find the online applications on the dog and cat adoption pages). 

We are very sorry, but we are currently full and NOT accepting surrenders! We also cannot accept strays. You must contact your local A.C.O. in regards to strays.

Grendel:  Our dog of the month is Grendel!

Grendal is shepherd  mix. He is a vibrant, active young athlete, about 4 years old, who was found running on shelter grounds late at night with his pal Raquel.  He gets along fine with her, but can be picky about other dogs.  

This handsome lad is extremely happy, upbeat, and anxious to spend time with people of all ages. He walks great on leash, he responds quickly to correction, and appears to be housetrained. Grendal would make an excellent companion for a family looking to share love and maybe even burn some calories.

Grendel is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, and microchipped.

If you'd like to meet Grendel, please go to the dog application to complete an application. You will be contacted right away by an adoption coordinator.

Gorgeous Gizmo: Cat of the Month!

Gizmo is a petite and loving girl who is 15 years young.  Her favorite spot is close to you.  She loves to help  with office work and has no problem typing away on your keyboard!  She's a very lovely pastel calico with a gentle disposition.  She gets along well with other cats.  She just likes to have some space of her own, preferably in your lap.  Gizmo is also up to date on all her shots, microchipped, and spayed (of course!)

If you'd like to meet Gizmo, please go to the cat application to complete an application. You will be contacted right away by an adoption coordinator.

You can help us in many ways.

   Animal Lifeline Sponsorship
$18 a month

Consider being an animal "Lifeline". Your monthly sponsorship donation of just $18 can be used in so many ways here at our sanctuary.  From vet care, to utilities, to staffing, our needs are many, but we can stretch your "lifeline" and continue to save lives!

                                

VOLUNTEER!

We are totally revamping the old way of doing things and reorganizing, rebuilding and restructuring.

We need YOU now more than EVER. PLEASE consider volunteering your time. 

We have orientations on Saturday from 10-11am. After that you are free to come seven days a week to help out around the sanctuary.  You can  walk dogs, play with cats, help clean, repair, build, fix - whatever it is that you want to do. We desperately need YOUR assitance to save the Elmsford shelter and make it a viable, thriving adoption machine again!  Please lend us your talents, your expertise or just your love.  We need you.  The animals need you.  We can not do it without you. (We even welcome your well behaved children!)
