Dogs for Adoption at Shandaken Shelter

There are several great dogs up for adoption at the Shandaken Dog Shelter. Here are some photos and brief descriptions. If you are interested or know someone who is interested please call ahead to the shelter. These dogs are all nice but bark a lot when the dog runs are approached by someone they don't know. You will get a better idea of the animal's true personality if you let Nancy or one of the other volunteers bring the dog out to greet you. So, if you are able, consider opening your heart and home to a new friend! I am sure you won't regret it!!













Breed: Tibetan Mastif
Location: S.A.V.E - Shandaken Animal Shelter
Sex: Male
Age: 7
Description: Bling is a most gentle giant. His big paws and furry mane make him seem bigger than he is. Bling is friendly but very,
very shy. Shelter volunteers say it takes a few times before he starts to warm up to you. He is good with most other
dogs (fixed). It may take a few times for Bling to be comfortable with you, but if you want a big dog with a sweet
disposition just waiting to be loved and protected, Bling is your guy. He needs a strong and gentle hand ready to take
the time to show him that people can be trusted. He is very healthy and has all his shots
