Forget Quitters Day

Forget Quitters Day – a new animal will fulfill
everyone’s New Year’s resolution
New Year, New Homes Program reduces the adoption
donation on dogs at the shelter for over 6 months

With Quitters Day upon us, CNYSPCA announced its New Year, New Homes Program that will help everyone fulfill their New Year’s resolution whether it is to exercise more or not work as much a rescue animal will help everyone accomplish their goal.

“Animals are just naturally able to motivate us to do what we know we have to do which is what New Year’s resolutions are all about too so just get a rescue dog or cat or rabbit and you will be a lot closer to getting your resolutions done,” said Troy Waffner, Director of CNYSPCA.

The New Year, New Homes Program highlights dogs that have been at the shelter for at least 6 months and reduces their adoption fee by 75 percent to $50. The eligible dogs are:

  • Ted:  An almost 4-year-old terrier/Pit Bull that has been at the shelter since May 22, 2023.  A true gentleman, he knows to sit and shake when you meet him and would love to romp and play in a home with kids 8 years or older.
  • Nestle: A 6-year-old terrier/Pit Bull that has been at the shelter since May 27, 2023. Nestle is the sweetest, chunkiest girl who is a little nervous at first, but warms up quickly. Nestle is in doggie playgroup. She would do best in a family with kids that are years or older.
  • Missy: A 1 year old terrier/Pit Bull that has been at the shelter since July 27, 2023. Missy loves her toys and would be fantastic in a family with children 8 years and older.
  • Danny:  An almost 4-year-old terrier/Put Bull that was first admitted to the shelter on April 28, 2023, adopted and then recently returned. Danny is a sweet, calm boy who would do great in a family with kids 12 years and older.
  • Miller: A 2.5-year-old Boxer mix that has been at the shelter since August 15, 2023. Miller is a very friendly guy who is usually the first dog new dog walkers take out. He loves to play.

“These dogs are all looking for the family where they can live their best lives,” Waffner said. “Adopt one and save two lives.”
