Fanny - Hound and Whippet Dog for Adoption in New York, New York

Meet Fanny, a beautiful 6-month-old puppy with a joyful personality and the sweetest nature. This lovely girl is full of life, affection, and puppy curiosity, and she is ready to find the family who will show her just how wonderful life can be.

Fanny is a happy, playful and easygoing puppy. She loves having fun, exploring the world and playing with other dogs. She gets along very well with dogs and is also good with cats, making her a wonderful candidate for a home with other furry family members.

She is a smart little girl who learns quickly, especially when kind words and a few tasty treats are involved. Like any young puppy, Fanny is energetic, curious and occasionally mischievous, but with love, patience and consistent training, she has everything she needs to grow into an amazing companion.

Fanny has already started working on her potty training, and her new family will need to continue helping her learn. A regular routine, positive reinforcement and crate training will make the transition into her new home much easier. She is still a baby, so her adopter should be ready for all the fun, learning and adventures that come with raising a puppy.

Fanny’s life did not have an easy beginning. She and her siblings were abandoned in a box outside a shelter overnight. They were just babies, completely dependent on someone to keep them safe. Thankfully, our rescue partner, SOS El Arca Animal Rescue, took them in and provided the veterinary care, shelter, love and attention they desperately needed.

Despite the way her story began, Fanny has grown into a happy, trusting and loving little girl. She doesn’t know that she was unwanted once. She simply loves life and is waiting for someone to love.

The shelter caring for Fanny is overwhelmed with dogs, and we do not want to see this beautiful puppy spend her childhood growing up in a kennel. She deserves a home where she can play, learn, go for walks, curl up somewhere comfortable at the end of the day and finally understand what it means to belong to a family.

We strongly believe in continued training after adoption. Training is a wonderful way for Fanny and her new family to bond while continuing her socialization and helping her develop into a confident, happy and well-mannered adult dog.

Fanny is spayed, microchipped, dewormed, up to date on her vaccinations and has been Heartworm tested with a 4DX SNAP test. She will arrive with a health certificate. For her safety, she will also go to her adopter or foster family with a harness, collar and two leashes.

Fanny has already overcome the hardest part of her story. Now she just needs someone to give her the ending every rescue puppy deserves.

If you are looking for a sweet, playful young companion and are ready to give Fanny the love, guidance and security she has been waiting for, please submit an adoption application.
