Betty

MEET BETTY!

This week’s shelter pet is Betty, a 9-year-old pit bull mix waiting at the Smithtown Animal Shelter. Betty has a sweet and loving nature, and needs to be in an adult only home with no other pets. She loves to cuddle and sleep.

Betty’s history is unknown, but this loving dog does need someone that is experienced with the breed and can manager her significant arthritis.  She is spayed, microchipped and up to date on her vaccines.

If you are interested in meeting Betty, please call ahead to schedule an hour to properly interact with her in the shelter’s Meet and Greet Room.

The Smithtown Animal & Adoption Shelter is located at 410 Middle Country Road, Smithtown. Operating hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. during the week, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on the weekend. For more information, please call 631-360-7575 or visit www.smithtownanimalshelter.com.

Chloe

MEET CHLOE AGAIN!

This week’s shelter pet is Cool Cat Chloe, a 4-year-old domestic short hair patiently waiting at the Smithtown Animal Shelter for her happily ever after home. Chloe has been featured before in the paper and we are hoping that the second time is the charm.

This beautiful girl is gentle and calm and has lived with other cats, small children and a small dog.  Chloe was surrendered because her family could not manage her seizure disorder. She needs someone who can medicate her twice daily (she is very good for her meds) and bring her to the vet twice a year for bloodwork to check her medication levels.

Chloe is an absolute mush and she loves to be petted and brushed. She is spayed, microchipped and up to date on her vaccines.

If you are interested in meeting Chloe, please call ahead to schedule an hour to properly interact with her in the shelter’s Meet and Greet Room. The Smithtown Animal & Adoption Shelter is located at 410 Middle Country Road, Smithtown. Operating hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. during the week, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on the weekend. For more information, please call 631-360-7575 or visit www.smithtownanimalshelter.com.

Bailey

MEET BAILEY!

This week’s shelter pet is Bailey, a 5-year-old Terrier mix waiting patiently at Kent Animal Shelter for his furever home.

Rescued from a high kill shelter in Texas, Bailey is a sweet boy. He’s a little shy at first, but loves to go for walks and waits patiently for his favorite volunteer dog walker to come and take him out. Bailey loves to be outdoors! He also has a great appetite and would never pass up a treat!

Bailey would do best in a home without cats, and likes to choose his own doggie friends. He comes neutered, microchipped and up to date on his vaccines.

Kent Animal Shelter is located at 2259 River Road in Calverton. The adoption center is open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information on Bailey and other adoptable pets at Kent, call 631-727-5731 or visit www.kentanimalshelter.com

Parker

MEET PARKER!

This week’s shelter pet is Parker, an 8 to 9-year-old Chihuahua and COVID orphan currently waiting at the Smithtown Animal Shelter for his furever home.

Parker’s mom loved him very much and it shows. This little guy adores all people, cats and friendly dogs big and small. He was over-indulged by his prior owner and some bad habits developed. He has resource aggression and needs a home that is comfortable managing this, giving him strict rules and structure and a parent that understands he is 100% worth the effort.

Parker is adored by every person that meets him. Unlike most Chihuahuas, he loves meeting new people and going on adventures. This poor boy has been through the ringer and needs a family that won’t give up on him.

He is neutered, microchipped and up to date on his vaccines.

If you are interested in meeting Parker, please call ahead to schedule an hour to properly interact with him in the shelter’s Meet and Greet Room. The Smithtown Animal & Adoption Shelter is located at 410 Middle Country Road, Smithtown. For more information, please call 631-360-7575 or visit www.smithtownanimalshelter.com.

Dale

MEET DALE AND BRENNAN!

This week’s shelter pets are Dale and Brennan, two 6-month-old orange tabby cats currently waiting at the Smithtown Animal Shelter to be adopted.

Brennan

These handsome, bonded brothers came to the shelter about two months ago with severe upper respiratory infections. After some TLC, they are now healthy and ready for their happily ever after together. These gentle mushes love to cuddle together and get affection from people too. They were very shy when they arrived at the shelter, but have warmed up to everyone. They would do best in a quieter home. They come neutered, microchipped and are up to date on all their vaccines.

If you are interested in meeting these brothers, please call ahead to schedule an hour to properly interact with them in the shelter’s Meet and Greet Room. The Smithtown Animal & Adoption Shelter is located at 410 Middle Country Road, Smithtown. For more information, please call 631-360-7575 or visit www.smithtownanimalshelter.com.

MEET ANGEL!

This week’s shelter pet is Angel, a 6-year-old Blue Nosed Pit Bull who has been waiting at the Smithtown Animal Shelter for her forever home for over 2 years. Angel adores people and FOOD!  She would be best suited to a breed savvy home where she can be the only pet and no children.

Angel is a loving, smart dog who enjoys splashing in the pool, exploring the outdoors and napping with her people. She is eager to please and comes spayed, microchipped and up to date on all her vaccines.

If you are interested in meeting Angel, please call ahead to schedule an hour to properly interact with her in the shelter’s Meet and Greet Room. The Smithtown Animal & Adoption Shelter is located at 410 Middle Country Road, Smithtown. For more information, please call 631-360-7575 or visit www.smithtownanimalshelter.com.
