Clyde is NOT good with cats.

Notes: Lady is a seven-year-old spayed female lab mix whose mistress recently died. She lives up to her name because she is a "lady" in every way - well mannered, quiet, obedient, loving. She also gets along well with other dogs and cats. There's nothing bad to say about special girl. Well, she could lose about five pounds or so, but who couldn't?

Notes: Uma is a beautiful, eighteen-month-old German Shepherd, spayed female. She came from a family who had two other dogs, but she would probably do better as the only dog - or at least not with multiple dogs. She was surrendered to CDHA because of the birth of a baby in the family. Uma does not do well being left alone for long periods of time.

Notes: Gabe is a Teddy Bear of a dog - loving, loving, loving. We're not really sure of his breed mixture, but he looks like he could have some Rottweiler in him. He's a neutered male, approx. four to five years. When we first met Gabe he was living on a fire escape and sleeping in a cardboard box. He was adopted from CDHA two years ago, but his family now includes an infant. Although Gabe is a good boy, the new baby and he are not a good match, so Gabe is now interviewing perspective candidates to find a permanent home. He is a strong dog on a leash, so he would not be appropriate for a family with very young children. A nice, a fenced yard would be beneficial.

Capital District Humane takes in dogs/cats/other animals on a weekly basis and places them for adoption in suitable homes.  Our website may not necessarily reflect all the animals available.  CDHA also keeps a list of privately owned dogs/cats needing placement.

Please call for updated lists.  If you are looking for a special type of animal that we don't currently have we'd be glad to assist you in your search...

CDHA tries to match each animal with the right person or family. We are not looking to "get rid of" animals. Decisions regarding appropriate placement of pets are made on various criteria. One of the things we will ask for is a veterinary reference or the last year or two of all your animals' medical records. If more than one person is interested in a particular pet, CDHA will make a determination regarding an adoption based on which home we think would be best for that animal.

We take adoptions very seriously. If you are considering one of our pets we will want to spend time talking with you and ask that you be patient. Adopting a pet is a long-term commitment. We're seeking quality homes for dogs with individual needs.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT AT AN ADOPTION CLINIC?

• You will be able to meet the animals for adoption and spend time with them.
   

• Volunteers will provide you with a pet adoption list that describes each dog.
   

• Volunteers will talk with you about what type of dog you are looking to adopt and will try to match you with an appropriate animal. We may have you fill out an "Animal Request Form" if we don't currently have the type of animal you're seeking.
   

• If there is a dog you're interested in adopting we will conduct an in-depth interview and will have you complete an application.
   

• We will want to meet all the immediate members of your household: wife, husband, children.
   

• We will review your veterinary reference or animals' medical records or will call your veterinarian to see if they will recommend you as a pet owner.
   

• We will request doing a home visit.
   

• You may not necessarily be able to take home a dog directly from the adoption clinic, depending on whether or not we can do a home visit or check your veterinary reference. If we have multiple applicants interested in a dog, we will review all the applications and will make a determination based on what we feel would be the most appropriate placement for that animal.
