The Aryan Molossus
Once a Warrior, Today a Loyal Companion and a Family-Protector
Should you ever decide that you need a big dog, with an imposing posture, which can look threatening and majestic at the same time, the Aryan Molossus is definitely one breed that you must take into consideration.
The Armant
The Egyptian Dog with a Lot of Love to Give
To some of you, the Armant is better known as the “Egyptian Sheepdog” and, just as the name suggests it, it was bred to be a herding dog. However, in ancient times, it was used mostly as a guard dog. This breed is originally from Egypt and named after the town of Armant. Its loyalty and agility are the two main characteristics which make this dog special.
The Atlas Terrier
The Small Dog With a Massive Dose of Energy
At a glimpse, the Atlas Terrier can be easily mistaken with the Jack Russell Terrier. However, there are some differences that may help you tell these two cousins apart. Before deciding to buy or adopt a dog of this breed, there are some things that you have to take into consideration. Unfortunately, this is quite a rare breed of dogs in our days.
Anglos-Francaises de Petite Venerie
It Is Impossible Not to Love Them
Anglos-Francaises de Petite Venerie are the smallest dogs in the Anglos-Francais category. However, the name „Petite”, meaning „small”, is not at all referring to the size of the dogs, but to the game they are after. Even if they've been around since the 16th century, today, these dogs are not easy to find. So if you have decided to adopt one, you can be sure that you will have a unique pet.

The Tri Lakes Humane Society was founded in 1942 by a group of teenagers concerned about the welfare of Saranac Lake's unwanted animals. The first "animal shelter" was a doghouse surrounded by chicken wire. When the young members found unwanted animals that they were able to take in to their homes, they cared for them there until a new home was found. At that time, the shelter was called "Adirondack Animal Welfare Society".
In 1973 an office was rented on Woodruff Street where paperwork was done, phone calls and messages were recorded, and donations were received.
During that year, the shelter was renamed "Tri Lakes Humane Society" and a motto was created..."We speak for those who cannot." With the help of Henry Uihlein and other generous donations in 1975, an old meat packing plant was purchased and renovated to become a shelter! From then on, hundreds of animals were brought in and adopted out. In 1999, a policy was adopted to become a no-kill facility.
We are now in a new building that was purchased and renovated for us by the Wigmore family and Hilde Roland in 1998; and in 2000 our doors were open for the public!
