Welcome to the 41st edition of Paw Prints, a monthly column for animal lovers dedicated to helping shelter pets find their furever home

Penny

Meet Penny

“Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes, there beneath the blue suburban skies.” A song that captures the beauty in the ordinary and turns it into something extraordinary is a fitting tribute for this nine year old Shepherd mix. 

Penny first arrived at Little Shelter via the Passage to Freedom Program from far away Azerbaijan. Adopted soon after, she was living a happy life until she suddenly lost her family and found herself back at the beginning. Enjoying long walks, ear scratches, and good conversation, this bright, shiny Penny is hoping to get a second chance. Finding a Penny brings good luck…this one is as close as your nearest shelter! 631-368-8770

Roo

Meet Roo

“Good morning from me — Roo! 

I’m just sitting here in the sunshine, waiting and wishing for my forever home. I’m Roo, a 1-year-old mixed breed girl with big ears, a happy heart, and the sweetest soul you’ll ever meet. I weigh about 40 pounds, which means I’m the perfect size for cuddling, car rides, and couch time (if you’re into that—because I sure am!).

I love going on walks, making new friends, and showing off my good leash manners. I may be young, but I’ve got a calm, gentle way about me that makes people smile. Just look into my eyes—you’ll see!

If you think we might be a perfect match, call Kent Animal Shelter for more information. I’m here patiently waiting, hoping today is the day someone chooses me.” 631-727-5731

Sally

Meet Sally

Sally is a 5-year-old goldendoodle mix who came to the Brookhaven Animal Shelter as a stray, but she hasn’t let her past dim her bright and loving spirit. This sweet girl is bursting with energy and affection! Sally thrives on activity and would love a family who enjoys walks, playtime, and plenty of outdoor adventures. She seems to be very dog friendly, but further testing will be done once she is spayed.

Sally hasn’t had much training in her life, so she’s still learning not to jump up and is working on her leash manners—she can be strong! She’ll need a family who’s patient and committed to helping her grow with some basic obedience training. 

Because of her energy and strength, Sally would do best in a home with children aged 14 and up. She’s the kind of pup who’ll match your enthusiasm for life, and she’s ready to be your loyal sidekick for all the fun ahead.

Bronco

Meet Bronco

This sweet boy was abandoned at a local park last August and is still waiting at the Smithtown Animal Shelter for his forever home. Estimated to be around 5 years old, this brindle and white bully mix weighs in at 65 pounds. A true gentleman, Bronco’s favorite pastimes include carrying around his stuffies and going for car rides that end with pup cups! He enjoys kids and all  adults and is indifferent to other animals. Bronco deserves his happily ever after. Will that be with you? 631-360-7575

Free rabies vaccination clinic

Save the date! The Suffolk County Department of Health Services in conjunction with the Town of Brookhaven will offer free rabies vaccinations for dogs, cats and ferrets on Saturday, May 31, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Brookhaven Animal Shelter located at 300 Horseblock Road in Brookhaven. Although the clinic is available to all county residents, the quantity of vaccine is limited and available only while supplies last. All dogs must be on leashes and all cats and ferrets must be in carriers.

New York State and Suffolk County laws require that all dogs, cats, and ferrets be vaccinated against rabies. Vaccinating pets not only provides protection for the animals but also acts as a barrier to keep the rabies virus from spreading between wild animals and people.

“Take the time to protect your beloved pets against rabies. They give us so much joy and love and deserve to be kept safe,” said County Executive Ed Romaine. For more information, call 631-451-6950.

Rescue is a lifestyle. Adopt, don’t shop.

Meet this week’s Shelter Pet of the Week, Bronco; a four-year-old male bully mix, adorning a gorgeous brindle with unique white patches up for adoption at the Smithtown Animal Shelter. Sadly, this innocent boy was cruelly abandoned at a local park. Despite his hardship, Bronco has warmed up to the team at the shelter who have come to discover what an endearing little charmer he is.

Bronco is a playful fella who fancies himself quite the athlete! His impressive ability to catch treats with precision, is a sight to behold! Bronco is not shy when it comes to letting you know he is looking for some playtime. He will hand deliver his favorite toys to your feet for a game of fetch or tug of war. This beefcake is young, healthy, and has a lifetime of adventures and companionship ready to share.

Bronco is a lady’s man who sincerely adores to be around women. He currently experiences some hesitancy and trust issues around men and other animals. This boy would be best suited in a home with no children or pets. He needs a patient home that can show him structure and love.

If you are interested in meeting Bronco, please call ahead to schedule an hour to properly interact with him in a domestic setting, which includes a Meet and Greet Room, the dog runs, and a Dog Walk trail.

The Town of Smithtown Animal & Adoption Shelter is located at 410 Middle Country Road, Smithtown. Visitor hours are Monday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. (Sundays and Wednesday evenings by appointment only). For more information, call 631-360-7575.
