Matthew's Story

💙Hi, I’m MATTHEW and I'm 3 months old and weigh 19 lbs. I’m a playful, curious puppy who is busy learning about the big world around me. 🐾<br/><br/>The nice people at the rescue don't know what breed I am, but they think I'll be medium-large to large sized when I am fully grown.<br/><br/>I love chasing balls, chewing on bones (teething life!), and exploring anything new I can find. Being outside is so much fun- I love to sniff and stretch my puppy legs.<br/><br/>I live with an adult dog in my Foster home and do great with him. I’m happy to play, but I’m also perfectly content entertaining myself when my foster brother wants a break. At night I’m pretty snuggly, but during the day I’m more of an independent little guy doing my puppy thing.<br/><br/>Since I’m still just a baby, I’m looking for a home that understands puppies and is ready to help me keep learning. I’ll need patience, consistency, and time for things like house training, crate training, and basic manners.<br/><br/>Because of my age, I’ll also need a home with a flexible schedule — being crated for 8+ hours a day just isn’t realistic for a growing pup like me.<br/>✨ Matthew at a glance:<br/>🐾 Great with people<br/>🐾 Great with other dogs<br/>🐾 Would do well with kids (with respectful dog manners)<br/>🐾 Playful, curious, and learning confidence<br/>🐾 Loves balls, bones, and chew toys<br/><br/>If you’re ready for puppy adventures, zoomies, and watching a little guy grow into his best self, Matthew might be your perfect match.

Long Road Home's Adoption Policy
Where do we get our dogs? Majority of our dogs come from high kill shelters. Some are owner surrender or strays. All of the dogs that come into our rescue have been in high emergency situations where they would not be wagging their tails. We work with a lot of shelters in the south as well as on long island. We have wonderful people who dedicate their time to the dogs and transport them into our long island foster homes.   What happens to the dog after we accept it into the program? All of the dogs first go to see a vet. Once they receive a clean bill of health the go into a home. We normally give each dog at least a week in a home with qualified trainer before we place the dog into a foster. We really like to have the dogs house broken and to have at least started basic obedience training. After the trainer we place the dog into its new foster home until it finds its forever home.
