Heather's Story

Heather was found as a stray. She had no microchip or identification, and no one came for her. <br/><br/>She was scared, and unfortunately is still scared. We have no idea what this girl went through prior to being in our care. But we do know she needs patience and someone who can dedicate time to breaking down her walls. She's warmed up to a few staff members and volunteers, and they can vouch for her being a cuddly, affectionate dog at heart!<br/><br/>We are hoping to find someone willing to give Heather the effort she deserves so she can thrive and finally know the comfort and safety that comes with a forever home!

Hudson Valley SPCA - Orange County's Adoption Policy
While we welcome your inquiries about individual pets from PetFinder, we would suggest that you come and visit our animals in person and speak with staff about them. An application for a dog or cat must be made before we can adopt a pet out. Applications include your information, personal references, a landlord reference/approval if you rent, and veterinary reference if you currently have or have had a pet in your home within the last 5 years. You may come to the shelter and pick up an application during our hours of operation, or you may print one from our website and email or drop off. You may indicate on the application if you have a particular animal in mind to adopt, or a particular breed or size, however we do not hold animals. Once your application is approved, we'll notify you to come and find your new family member! We do not charge a fee for our adoptions, however we do ask for a donation. That donation is to cover our medical expenses as all of our animals are vaccinated and spayed and neutered. They are also treated for any medical conditions such as heart worm, torn ligaments, cancer, and supplemental foods as needed. Averaging out all of these costs we ask a $300 minimum donation. We receive no funding from private or government agencies to financially support us and depend totally on donations to pay our vet bills so that no animal is denied medical care.
