Our Featured Pet...

Otis is great with kids and is crate trained(o: He walks well on lead, but gets a bit excited when passing other dogs. Otis is about 50lbs and will not get any bigger (unless fed too many biscuits!!). He is deaf but knows some hand signals(o: Otis is currently in an active home with mommies who love to hike and travel. He enjoys car rides and his outings very much!! Unfortunately because of a lifestyle change Otis can no longer stay in the home he has known since he was 4 months old)o; This is an urgent situation, Otis must find a forever home ASAP!! He is up to date on vaccines, altered, heartworm tested negative, on monthly prevention, and microchipped.

We use Patented Kuranda Dog Beds because they are durable, chew proof and easy to clean. If you would like to donate a bed to us, click here.
We are always looking for people to help out be it through donations ($, food, toys, blankets, collars, leads, etc...) or volunteers who can foster or transport. For more info. please contact Kristen at kobemnstr@hotmail.com.
Who We Are
Fur Babies is a small no kill rescue group. We will keep all our dogs/cats until a loving home is found for them. We are devoted to saving dogs/cats in need. Many of our dogs/cats have been abandoned and/or have literally been found by our volunteers and good samaritans on the streets of NY, NJ and CT. We have also rescued dogs from the Center for Animal Care and Control (CACC), the New Haven Animal Shelter CT, The Town of Hempstead and the Smithtown Animal Shelter. All of our dogs/cats are given full medical exams including all of the necessary innoculations. All dogs are tested for heartworm and put on preventative. Any treatment for illness or injury is provided. In addition, all dogs/cats are spayed/neutered prior to being made available for adoption and most of our seniors have a wellness profile done. Most of our rescues are kept in loving foster homes until they are adopted so we can tell you as much as possible about their personalities.
Adopting a friend
One of the most frequently asked questions is regarding the mix of the dog. Generally, when a dog is first brought in, the vet gives a general idea of the mix of the dog. Also, the input of volunteers is considered. We can never know for certain what mix a dog that has been living in the streets is exactly. However, we do give you our "best guess". The best thing to do, is to come out and meet our dogs. Their personalities will charm you, regardless of their mix!
All perspective adoptors must fill out our application, giving references and info. on their home and family. We also do home checks and ask for vet references. Fur Babies must ask a donation at the time of adoption, in order for us to continue our rescue work. The fee is $200 for a mixed breed dog. We ask $300 in the event that we adopt out a rescued pure breed dog or puppy. (We have rescued many pure breeds, although the majority are mixed breed dogs.) Puppies under 6 mos we ask for a $250 donation. For cats we ask a $50 donation. We further ask that all adoption fees be cash.
