Dog of the Week: Scooby

Breed: Mixed

Age: 1 year old

Bio: Scooby is a mixed breed dog who came to the Yonkers Animal Shelter as a stray. He is about 60 pounds, is good-natured, and like many other dogs at the shelter loves to swim. Scooby has had a lot of visitors lately, so if you think he is the one for you get down to the shelter quick to check him out!

Cat of the Week: Snoopy

Breed: House/Domestic

Age: 2 yeas old

Bio: Snoopy is a young male cat that is – like you may have guessed – truly a snoop! He never misses anything going on in the cat room or outside in the cat solarium, and jumps right up on one of the wall shelves as soon as someone comes in the room, shelter workers say. Snoopy likes to be handled, and would make a great family pet. He is neutered, weighs about 10 pounds, and would love a new home!
