Quincy...wishing upon a star

CLICK HERE to Meet Our Dogs

~ WHO WE ARE ~
We are the LEAGUE FOR ANIMAL PROTECTION OF HUNTINGTON (Dog Program) a nonprofit, all volunteer organization dedicated to the rescue, care and placement of stray and abandoned dogs. Our volunteers work out of a local Town Dog Shelter where we walk, groom/bathe, socialize and behavior/temperament screen the dogs housed at the shelter in an effort to place all the dogs in good, loving, permanent homes. Because new dogs are arriving daily while others are eagerly joining their new adoptive families, those listed on our website are just a representation of the dogs available for adoption and not a complete list. Therefore, we recommend that you contact us so we can introduce you to all of our wonderful dogs. That perfect match is just a phone call--or e-mail--away!!

~ VOLUNTEERING ~
Volunteers are always welcome! Please call if you are interested in joining us in our efforts to help our homeless dogs find loving, permanent homes.

HEART UPDATE:
4 out of 5 Physicians recommend walking as a heart-healthy, daily exercise. 10 out of 10 dogs know that their hearts--and yours--will be healthier and happier if you walk together. Come and volunteer--open your hearts to joy! Help us take care of the dogs of Huntington. You won't know what you did before that made you feel so good!

~ FOSTERING ~
WE DESPERATELY NEED FOSTER HOMES!
We have a Foster Care Program for those interested in providing a temporary home. If you would like to help save a dog's life, please call for more information on our Foster Care Program: 631-757-9373.

~ ADOPTING A FRIEND ~
Adopting a shelter dog is a richly rewarding experience that brings joy and companionship into your home. When adopted, all dogs are spayed/neutered before leaving the shelter, without exception! They also receive a rabies vaccination and are NYS licensed. The Shelter fee is $102.00, payable by check or money order.

~ DONATIONS ~
Donations are always needed and greatly appreciated. Monetary donations can be sent to:

Ways To Help MULTIPLIED:
A simple way to help yourself, the environment and a charity of your choice is this: whenever you go for walks with your dog(s) bring lots of plastic bags. Pick up redeemable bottles and cans and put them in bags separate from the non-redeemable bottles and cans that you can bring home and add to your own recyclables. Redeem the bottles and cans and set the money aside. At the end of the year, donate your found money to a worthy cause; you will be amazed how much money is there and how much this simple act can do. Exercise for you and your pooch, cleaning up the environment and making a donation to a cause you believe in...it doesn't get any better than that!
