Story
Hello, I'm Kyle! I am 59 pounds and ready to rumble! I'm a nice guy but this place can be a little too much sometimes. You see, I'm only about 1.5 years old, but I've been passed around a bit already. Someone gave me away, then that person gave me to someone else, who brought me here. I've been trying very hard to be brave, and it's paid off, but I'm hoping I can just get out of the shelter and find myself a forever home. I'm told that's when some humans feed, love and play with you for the rest of your life. That sounds pretty good to me! I can be a little weary of strangers but once I get to know you, I'm all in! I'm a loyal friend but not a snob. As long as you respect me as a living being, we will be happy together! Since small humans are sometimes unable to tell when I'm feeling uncomfortable, I think I'd prefer a home with adults or older teens only for now. I like to play with other dogs, rough and tumble style. If you have a dog who likes to wrestle and play chase, I might be a good friend for them! Call, email or stop by the shelter today to find out more! (607)257-1822 x221 adoptions@spcaonline.com (adoptions category: purple)

Story
Meet Manon! She is a 43 pound beautiful girl who came to the shelter as a stray. Staff and volunteers who work with her say she is very fond of both playing and snuggling. Manon can be nervous of strangers and strange environments. She's hoping to find a committed dog person who can learn alongside her. She can sometimes be a little bossy with other dogs and excited to play with people. For these reasons, the staff would set up initial meets at the shelter to get an idea of how everyone interacts. She is smart and willing to learn if you're patient and willing to teach! If you'd like to see for yourself what a wonderful girl she can be, make an appointment or stop by the shelter during walk in hours to meet her!

Story
Hello friendly friends! I'm Snoopy, or Snoop Dogg, if you please. I am a friendly, bouncy big boy (90 pounds) looking for someone to help me out. You see, my dad loved me very much but he had a weak heart. He knew he wasn't feeling well and tried very hard to find someone to take care of me but, unfortunately, he died before anyone stepped forward. The nice shelter people tried a little longer to find someone who knew my dad to take me home, but there wasn't anyone ready for a big baby like me. Alas, here I am hoping to charm someone new into taking me home. My favourite thing is probably snacks (ok, I'm a little chubby, whatever) followed by chasing toys (and making you chase me)! I love rope toys the most but balls are ok too. I'm not too sure about some of the other dogs around, but maybe I'll feel differently about yours. Call, email or stop by the shelter during open hours to find out more about adoption! (607)257-1822 x221 adoptions@spcaonline.com (adoptions category: lilac)

Hi there, they call me Silly Goose, and I think that's pretty fitting! I was found tied to a tree with two other dogs. At first, I was pretty nervous about being taken away by strangers to a strange place but, since I've been here, I've been warming up to new people pretty well. I think I would make a pretty good new family member if you don't mind a 52 pound dog trying to climb in your lap! I also love to play with toys, run around the fenced yard and generally just be cute and goofy. Call, email or stop by the shelter during open hours if you'd like to meet me, Silly Goose!

Meet Coca, an Ithaca local looking for a new place to call home. Coca came to us as a stray, but we later found out she had a home, but they weren't allowed dogs there. Coca is a happy-go-luck young lady who goes crazy for treats, attention and playtime! She loves to meet new people, explore new places and have lots of fun! Besides that, she's cute as a button (just look at those ears!) and weighs around 36 pounds. Coca can get REALLY excited for walks and play at times, but she does pretty good at containing herself (for the most part)! She's sure to make some lucky person or family a fun and loving partner! If you think Coca might be for you, call, email or stop by the shelter during open hours to find out more about adopting! (607)257-1822 x221 adoptions@spcaonline.com (adoptions category: purple)

Story
Meet Phillip, a volunteer favorite who is considered one of the easier dogs to handle! His polite leash-walking for a mellow stroll through the fields is much appreciated by volunteers who need a break from wrangling other rowdy dogs. He likes to meet new people if he has a trusted human by his side who he can look to for guidance. He came to us a stray, so we don't know what his life was like before he arrive here, but we are having fun learning more about him. For example, he is very smart and knows how to sit for treats already! He also likes to climb into laps and give his human friends sloppy, drooly kisses. He's gone for some paired walks with other dogs here at the shelter, and seems to enjoy paws-off play with at least some canines. If you'd like to meet Phillip, please call or email the shelter to set up an appointment! (607)257-1822 x221 adoptions@spcaonline.com (adoptions category: lilac)

Hi! My name is Gigi. I am a sweet young girl looking for my forever home. Treats and butt scratches are the key to my heart! I would love to find a home where I can gain confidence and learn to experience life in a positive way. I enjoy the company of other dogs as long as they are larger than me. I am very particular about who I share a home with and must have a feline-free home. If you are a patient person who would love to add a playful, fun and spunky young pup to your life then I'm your gal!

Meet Ohana! She is sweetest lady with the biggest pittie smile. She loves to engage in zoomies when she is excited and is so much fun to play with! Ohana would thrive in a home where she can be the only pet as she doesn't like to share her spotlight with other animal friends.When its hot outside some of Ohana's favorite activities are splashing around in the kiddie pool and basking in the sun with her human friends!

Story
Sweet little Oreo is a 5 month old female pittie puppy. She, her sister and her mother were a local surrender when the family that had them could not meet their needs.  The mom, Ronnie, was a stray and the family took her in only to have her become pregnant.  Five puppies were born on Christmas Day.  The human family took care of this canine family as best as they could.  They found homes for 3 of the puppies, but there were 2 left.  They reached out to Seventh Heaven Rescue for help.  Some volunteers met the mom and 2 puppies, who were all very sweet and friendly.  The rescue was able to find some fosters for all 3.  All were taken to the vet for vaccines and checks.  These pups are now adjusting to their new life in their fostser homes.  Oreo is the smaller and shyer of the 2 puppies.  She was never socialized or left the home, so everything is new for her.  Every day she has been making steps to feel more comfortable.  She really likes following her humans around, and she adores children!  She was living with a younger child the first 5 months of her life, and is now being fostered with children.  She likes to snuggle up with her humans.  All Oreo has ever known is her canine family, so she's adjusting to being around new dogs.  It was scary for her at first, but she is slowly getting more and more comfortable with the resident dogs in the foster home.  Oreo has been doing great with crate and potty training.  She is a typical puppy who likes to chew, jump and run around. She has been easy to redirect when chewing on something she shouldn't.  With proper socialization, training, and love, we are confident that Oreo will become the perfect dog!  She will need an adopter that is patient while she decompresses and has the time to devote to her training.  Oreo's adoption fee is $450 which goes towards spaying at our vet, vaccines and medical care up to adoption, microchip and costs associated with fostering. ##2062070##
