I just wanted to let you all
know that Boston is doing
really well. We named her
Bella and she is learning
her basic commands very
quickly. She loves our cat
Smokey and jumps on him
every chance she gets. My
kids adore her and my
husband loves to take her
for walks and rub her belly.

Yo-Yo was found
in the road
abandoned by
someone at aprox.
3 weeks old
(along with his
2 sisters). He
was so young, he
had to be bottle
feed, and made
to go potty. He
is now happy,
and healthy,
here in our
home. My Grand
daughter
Melissa, named
him Yo-Yo.
My 20 year old son, brought him into our lives at the worst
possible time.
Money was tight,
and we did not
feel we could
afford another
pet. When area
shelter said
they were too
full to take
him, and offered
to help us with
Yo-Yo, we
thought we could
help out until a
good home could
be found.
We have grown to love this spunky little kitty, who can be so
wonderful around
the grandkids.
He drive us all
into balls of
laughter, and
has fun times
with the family.
Mr.Yo-Yo Napoli
has his forever
home!

In the last year I have
adopted four amazing cats
from your shelter in New
Windsor. I am so thankful
that the staff took the time
to help us find the perfect
additions to our family. I
know that the old shelter
was a kill shelter and you
have made it a no kill
shelter. Thank God for
you! One of my
recently adopted cats was in
the shelter system for
almost 2 years. It
pains me to even think that
if the old rules applied she
wouldn't be here with me.
She has SO SO much love to
give and I can't picture my
life without her!
Again, I can't express how
grateful I am to everyone at
the HVSPCA for all the
countless hours, patience,
and love that is devoted to
all your animals! We
feel very strongly about
giving all animals a second
chance to live longer,
healthier and happier lives.
Each one of you at the
HVSPCA make that possible
everyday! You are all
heroes in my eyes.
Keep up the GREAT work!!

I just wanted to thank
you again for pairing me
with Bonnie, the rott/shep
mix. She has a new name,
Dagmar, and is very happy.
We take daily walks around
the neighborhood and she no
longer pulls on her leash.
She has a beautiful new bed
and plenty of toys. Once she
gets over her car sickness,
we will stop by to say
hello. Thanks again.

All the animals I saw
looked very well cared for,
and I was happy to see
them finally in a loving
home. While I loved petting,
playing, and watching all
the dog and cats, I was
also happy to be able to get
great information on
adopting a pet
straight from the source.
Thank you again, and I am
looking forward to
coming later in the year to
deliver the blankets, food,
and other
pet supplies our
troop will collect for this
SPCA organization

I just wanted to tell you
how wonderful it is to see
the Hudson Valley becoming a
place that is working to
have a good
shelter/stray/abused animal
care system. I am a Hudson
Valley-er born and raised in
Ulster County but
moved to Philadelphia last
year. I see the immensity
of the stray animal/ abuse
problem here and all that
the city does with it's many
shelters and it's very hard
to fund and keep up with, so
I can imagine that a place
like the Hudson Valley would
be even more work!It brings
tears of happiness to my
eyes to see that so many
people are working so hard
to make the Hudson Valley
SPCA so great! I really
just want to thank you all
for your hard work and
dedication as not only a
Hudson Valley native,
but an
animal lover!

Our thanks to the wonderful
folks at the Hudson Valley
SPCA for caring for Giselle
until she found us. We love
her so very much.

I think what you
do for the
animals is
fantastic!!
There should be
more in the
world that care
like you do!!

We just wanted to
say thank you again
for being so
wonderful when we
came and adopted
Brooklyn.
She is doing very
well in her new home
and seems to love
it.

I adopted "Kellen"
now named Snoopy and
"Queenie". They
both bring much joy
to our family. Queenie
was quite the
"handful" but gives
the BEST kisses of
any dog that I've
ever had!
- Joanna Markowitz |
In the past
we have adopted 2
wonderful dogs from
you - Benson
(formally known as
Coal) and Quincy
(formally known as
Dakota). Both
have passed on - we
just recently lost
Qunicy after having
him for about 12
years. The
best dogs are the
rescued ones!
- Kris Finn |
I love dogs
and all sorts of
animals. I
hate to see animals
in need; it always
makes me cry.
- Karina |
So grateful
to have adopted
Mickey and Minnie
(Tammie and Chip).
God bless you for
all you do for the
animals.
