Why Adopt an Amsterdog?
AmsterDog is a foster-based rescue and does not have its own facility. We rely on people like you to open their hearts & homes to pets in need. Our fosters are spread throughout the northeast, and we partner with veterinary services and professional trainers all over.
AmsterDog has animals available for adoption that were previously rescued from urgent situations and have since resided in a foster home or boarding. This means that their behaviors and personalities are well known. Their caretakers can tell you their likes, dislikes, favorite treats, special scratch spots, and more!
AmsterDog is here to help! Whether you’re only beginning your browsing for a new best friend or just not quite sure which one is for you, talk to us. Text us, call us, write us an e-mail, or message us on social media: we will match you with the best fit for you. AmsterDog is more than happy to adopt our dogs out, but we do offer a foster-to-adopt option to make sure that both you and your new pet are truly a great fit, with many memories of love and companionship awaiting you both!
AmsterDog helps animals in many locations throughout the northeast - don’t be deterred if a dog isn’t being fostered locally. We provide transportation to approved adopters within a reasonable distance.

freshly rescued xylos joins family of fellow Acc pulls
Xylos, now fondly renamed Valentino, loves his new life, his new mom, and his new siblings, Gigi and Sukhia. And you know what? Their amazing mom welcomed them ALL directly from NYCACC - AmsterDog Rescue pulled from Gigi/Sienna 138023 in 2022, after being twice returned. Then in 2023, when "Sukhia Snow 163061" was at risk for euthanasia, she stepped up again. And now, in 2026, for a third time, when Xylos 244645 was at risk of euthanasia and ran out of time in late February, guess who swooped in to save him? Our amazing adopter has opened her heart & home to yet another dog in desperate need. Oh, and their cat sibling Huey, too! Valentino, you sure hit the jackpot!
