Viv is a 2-year-old English Foxhound–Pit Bull Terrier Mix at SASF. She is a fun-loving girl who enjoys running and playing in a fenced in yard. She can be weary of new people initially, but after only a short time, she is in your lap giving you kisses.Lauren DeFoto

Eustace is 10-year-old Pit Bull–Terrier Mix and one of the most endearing older gentlemen at SASF. He would prefer a calm and quiet home where he can be the true couch potato he is. He's a social dog who plays well with females and could potentially be with mellow males, as well.Lauren DeFoto
Tiny is a sassy little 6-year-old lady ready for the next chapter of her life after SASF. She can be very charming and sweet, and she loves to burrow under blankets for her afternoon nap. She would prefer to be a princess that can hog all the human attention.Lauren DeFoto

Lola is a beautiful little bunny found by SASF as a stray locally. She is a bit shy at first but very sweet once she warms up to you. She enjoys all sorts of fresh vegetables especially parsley. Lola Bunny would enjoy a quiet home and someone who will go the extra mile to give her a nice life.Lauren DeFoto
Shug is the cutest, stockiest and chunkiest boy weighing in a little over fifty pounds. Shug was transferred to SASF from a local overcrowded shelter and has quickly become a team favorite. He would prefer an adult only, quiet and calm home with a fenced in yard for him to run around in. He enjoys the company of playful female dog friends but may be best as the only dog in the home.Lauren DeFoto

Today’s photo gallery highlights three East End nonprofits that go above and beyond to rescue, care for and find forever (or furever) homes for animals. We invite you to visit their websites and social media pages and share their information so that they may find homes for all of their rescues. Thank you to all those who dedicate their time, love and passion to helping those in need.
Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation
SASF relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers to care for the homeless animals in our community and place them in loving “forever homes.” The shelter is a safe haven for all animals. The shelter provides a stepping stone for animals to find loving homes. It offers them housing, food, medical treatment, training and rehabilitation when necessary. Visit their website at southamptonanimalshelter.com or call 631-728-7387 (PETS) to schedule your visit. Be sure to watch the shelter cats in action with their live Cat Cam!
Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons
ARF actively rescues cats and dogs, provides quality care and offers sanctuary until loving homes can be found. ARF’s work with animals, within our community and throughout the organization is guided by three core values: Compassion, integrity and dedication. All adoptions are being conducted by appointment only, and applications can be found online at arfhamptons.org under “View Our Pets” on each animal’s webpage. Call 631-537-0400 to learn more.
Gimme Shelter Animal Rescue
Founded in 2011 by Michelle Neufeld Montak, the mission for GSAR is to rescue as many animals as possible from high-kill shelters and other neglectful situations across the country. Every animal rescued gets spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped, and they receive any additional necessary medical treatment prior to being adopted out through their very successful foster and adoption program. Contact them at gimmeshelteranimalrescue.org if you are interested in adopting or fostering.
