There are several days in April devoted to pet adoption, but really Anytime is a great time to give a shelter pet a home! There are so many pets in need at shelters and rescues everywhere.
Today I'm spotlighting two dogs beautiful shelter dogs who are in need of a loving home. They are from Bideawee, in Long Island New York. I grew up on Long Island, and Bideawee has been a fixture in our community ever since I can remember. Talk to any native Long Islander and chances are a good percentage of them will say they adopted a pet from Bideawee at some point in their lives!
The two dogs I'm spotlighting today are Frank and Neida. They are Long Stay adoptable animals at Bideawee who need a little extra care and patience. They are part of Bideawee's Long Stay Animals, known as the Bideawee Bunch. Frank and Neida have been waiting for quite some time for that special person or family to take them home!
Neida, a beautiful girl in need of a loving home |
It isn't every day that you meet a lady as unique and gorgeous as this gal! Please allow me to introduce you to Neida, a Border Collie/Terrier mix. She is a stunningly beautiful 6-year-old pooch, who boasts one sky blue eye, and one that's cocoa-brown! Neida is full of personality and affection and has been with us here at Bideawee for over a year.
Neida's dream home would be the one that can give her all the time and patience that she deserves, so she can settle in, and bond with her family gently and quietly. She longs for a family that she can trust, and who will make her feel safe. In return, Neida promises a lifetime of love, friendship, and faithfulness.

Handsome Frank is looking for someone to love who will love him back! |
Everyone please come on over and meet Frank! He is a charming and handsome 3 year old Chinese Shar-Pei mix, who dons the most adorable little ears! If they don't get you, Frank's wrinkly face and happy-go-lucky smile certainly will. Over-flowing with spirit and love, Frank is gung-ho for his people pals and playtime alike. He loves to run around and play games! Weighing in at 50 pounds, he's a great size for anyone seeking a medium-sized companion! Frank is seeking an adult-only home that can provide him with daily exercise, adventures, and playtime. A home with a canine companion is a possibility as well, as long as Frank and his future doggie siblings hit it off on the meet and greet! If Frank sounds like the one, please ask about adopting him today.
Frank and Neida's adoption fees have already been covered so their adoptions are FREE! Contact BIDEAWEE if you are interested in Frank (ID: 1650 or Neida (ID: 0809) they're at the West Hampton location.

There was a third dog named Scout in the Bideawee Bunch that I was supposed to spotlight as well. He had been at Bideawee for Five long years! That is way too long for any pet to wait for a loving home! I just learned that Scout has finally been adopted! I am overjoyed to see this long timer finally go to a forever HOME. Scout is proof that no matter how bleak a shelter pet's future seems, there is always hope.
Bideawee is a wonderful organization. They do so much for pets in need throughout our community. They are extra special to me for two reasons;
😺 Icy and I do our Therapy Dog volunteer work through Bideawee. They provide us with assignment where we can do the most good helping people, and they give us the support we need to do so.
😺 The biggest reason Bideawee is so special to me is that I'm filled with gratitude to them for giving my family the joy of our lives, Ginny, a Golden Retriever mix. I was 7 years old when we got Ginny, and in my early twenties when we lost her. Having Ginny in my life was so important to me, she was one of the greatest gifts a child could have in her life. She was my true Heart Dog.

My childhood dog Ginny, the joy of my life. I'm so grateful to have loved you, I'll never stop missing you my sweet girl. |
Frank and Neida could be one of the greatest gifts in someone's life too, if given the chance. I hope you'll consider giving Frank or Neida a loving home. If you can't adopt right now, please share this to help them find a loving home with someone else!
Thank You!!
Thank You!!

What beautiful dogs. We are going to share. We think Bideawee does great work for animals.
They are both stunning, but Neida's eyes are amazing! I hope they both find their forever homes soon!!
Aren't they the cutest!? Thank you so much for sharing, I really appreciate that. Yes, Bideawee does great work helping animals in need. They do great work & have been doing so for many years!
She really does have beautiful, unique eyes! I hope they find homes soon too, paws crossed! Thanks Nichole.
What beautiful dogs and pray they find homes soon :( Kills me to see how many are up for adoption
Oh what cuties! I'm purrin' and purrin' AND PURRIN' they find their forever homes, super soon. PURRS.
Such sweeties! I hope they both find loving forever homes soon!
So glad that Scout found a home and I hope these two do as well.....every dog deserves a loving and fur-ever home. Both of my dogs were rescues.
Thank you for spotlighting these cuties. I am so happy that Scout found a home ♥ Hopefully, Neida and Frank will find a home too
They both look like lovely dogs. I hope they find their homes soon and don't have to wait any longer!
They are both gorgeous, and I can't believe they don't have homes yet. I hope they join Scout in happy homes very soon.
Your Ginny was beautiful too!

They look precious. I hope they find homes soon. I will share this post on my page to get the word out. Good luck!
Oh, thank you Seville! I sure hope they find furever homes soon too.
I hope they find loving homes real soon too, they've been waiting too long. It kills me to see so many pets at shelters too. That is the real problem, shelters just keep filling up.
Thanks Carleen! I hope so too.
I'm thrilled that Scout found a home - after 5 long years in a shelter, can you believe that!? That's no life for a dog. I hope these two dogs find love soon too.
Thanks Melissa! I'm so glad Scout finally found a home after 5 long years in the shelter - WAY too long for any dog. My paws are crossed for these two cuties to find loving homes too.
Aren't they adorable!? I sure hope we can give them some exposure and help them go HOME!
Aren't they both just adorable!? They've both been in the shelter way too long and really need to get out of the shelter environment and into a loving home.
They are both such sweeties, I'm hoping they find homes really soon - Paws Crossed!
I will share them! That is wonderful that Scout was adopted! I am always grateful for shelters that take care of animals for long periods of times. Ginny certainly was a beauty. I grew up with a dog too, we got her when I was 7 or 8 and she died when I was 25. Those first holidays without her were brutal.
Just shared on Twitter. I hate it when great dogs and cats are longtimers at a shelter. Hoping these two find their forever homes very soon!
They are so sweet! I sure hope they find their home. Sharing.
Oh this dogs touch the heart don't they. There is always a cat that is overlooked, wghich is why, when we adopt, I insist on seeing every last darned cat in the whole building. It's not "what the cat can do for me, but how I can help the cat who needs it most."
Good luck you two, and even we have heard of Bideawee here in NZ,
I am thrilled to learn about Bidawee and their dedication to providing these special dogs long-term homes until they find a home. There stories always break my heart. But at least I know they aren't on a kill list. Like everyone here, we all wish we could adopt them all.
Wonderful news about Scout being adopted. We hope the other two will find a forever home soon. It always makes me a little sad to read about all of the dogs and cats in shelters.
What cuties! Frank kind of reminds me of my childhood dog. She was a black lap/collie mix. It brings a smile to my face to think of her because she was my best friend from the time I was born until she passed away when I was 12 years old (she was 13). I hope that these pups can find homes where they will be someone's best friend too!

Thank you for helping spotlight these pups in need! It's hard to resist a pup with a blue eye!! And hooray for Scout!
I hope these two find their forever homes soon! Just looking in their eyes and you can tell that they'll flourish in a loving home that has opened their arms to them. Thanks for helping to raise awareness about these adoptable pups.
Ohhh gorgeous! I will share as well!
