What should I do if I witness animal abuse?

Contact your local Putnam Valley Dog Control Officer,

Resolving these issues may save an animal's life.
Thank you.


Experienced Bully Breed Owners Wanted.
If you have experience handling pitbulls, American bulldogs, bull terrier and/or American Staffordshires, these dogs are for you.
These dogs have been here for quite a while and are desperately looking for a forever home. They would do best as an 'only pet' in the home with an older child only. 
 

SOME HAPPY ENDINGS:

"Lucy" the Beagle, "Jazz" the Border Collie and "Leo" the Lab/Mastiff mix; "Jerry" the Springer Spaniel and "LA" the Beagle mix have been adopted! 

Also more recently "Biscuit" a Terrier Mix, "Sweet William" a Pitbull, "Sandy" the Lab-Husky mix and "Nicky" the Shiba Inu have also been adopted. 

Now Ten-Ten, the small Terrier mix has been adopted too.
Thank you.
