NYC dog adoption: adopting a dog in New York City

How do I adopt a dog in NYC?

Open any dog above and use the button at the bottom of its page. Some NYC rescues take email inquiries; most ask for an adoption application first. LUVD sends you to whichever step that rescue actually requires, so you don't get bounced.

Which rescues does LUVD cover?

LUVD follows Animal Haven, Korean K9 Rescue, Muddy Paws Rescue, NYC Second Chance Rescue, Sean Casey Animal Rescue, Social Tees Animal Rescue, Sugar Mutts Rescue and Waggytail Rescue. We check all of them every morning and show you what's new, so you don't have to keep a dozen tabs open.

What does it cost to adopt in NYC?

Fees are set by each rescue and usually run about $150–$500, typically covering spay/neuter, vaccinations and microchipping. Where a rescue publishes the fee, it's shown on that dog's page.

Which dogs work in an apartment?

Every dog gets an apartment-fit rating alongside energy level and how much dog experience it needs. These are estimates drawn from the rescue's own write-up and breed tendencies — the rescue knows the individual dog best.
