CT Cushaw - Saint Bernard Dog for Adoption in Stormville, New York

**I am in foster care. Please fill out an application to schedule a time to meet me!**

This magnificent crew of 7 Saint Bernard puppies rolled into rescue at just three weeks old with their mom, after being rescued from a neglect situation. Thanks to two wonderful foster homes, they've spent their days being thoroughly spoiled, meeting kids and dogs, and soaking up all kinds of sights and sounds.


But before you fall head-over-paws for these adorable fluff balls, let's talk about reality. Saint Bernards are magnificent, but they are not for the faint of heart (or the light of wallet).

Everything is XL: Vet bills, monthly flea, tick, and heartworm preventatives, and groceries. If you thought feeding a dog was pricey, wait until you are buying kibble by the forklift-load. A healthy bank account isn't just a bonus-it's a prerequisite.

The S-Words: They shed year-round (glitter is temporary, Saint Bernard hair is forever) and they drool with the enthusiasm of a leaky fire hydrant.

The Growth Spurt: What is currently an adorable, clumsy 15-pound lap puppy is rapidly hurtling toward a 125+ pound behemoth. What's cute and manageable right now will require a serious game plan very soon.

Education is Non-Negotiable: Early training and master-class leash walking are absolute musts. You cannot negotiate with a 125-pound dog who hasn't learned manners!

Are You Our Match?
We are looking for adopters who meet a few strict criteria:

Proven Experience: Previous large or giant breed ownership is practically mandatory.

Financial Readiness: You must have the financial backing to support a giant breed through all of life's stages.

Commitment to Training: Dedication to keeping up with their socialization, boundaries, and leash training as they grow into majestic adults.

If you have the space in your heart, your home, and your budget for a lifetime of giant-sized love, these pups are ready to change your world. Fill in the adoption application on our website so we can set up a time to have you meet them in their foster homes.

The Saint Bernard is a large and gentle dog breed known for its loyalty, affectionate nature, and impressive strength. Originating from the Swiss Alps, these dogs were historically used as rescue dogs due to their keen sense of smell and ability to navigate through harsh terrain. With their iconic droopy jowls, expressive eyes, and massive build, Saint Bernards make wonderful family pets, often forming strong bonds with children and adults alike. Their calm demeanor and easygoing attitude make them a favored choice for those seeking a devoted and loving companion.
