Monty





This GORGEOUS SWEET boy is slated to go down tomorrow because there is no room at the shelter - pls give him a second chance by committing to Adopting, Fostering or Sponsoring him!

Monty, a 10 mo old stray, arrived at the shelter only a week ago. He's a big boy (56 pounds), healthy looking and well nourished and he's got a beautiful snowy white coat. When he first arrived, he used to jump up to shower you with licks and kisses...but he's calmed down now: no more jumping. He's still a young pup and needs to run and be exercised. All he wants is a buddy - human or doggy.

Monty is sooo friendly and easy to walk as he doesn't pull on the leash. He appears to be housetrained and takes treats gently from your fingers. He looks like an angel when he sleeps. Young, sometimes boisterous, but never aggressive. Rather, he is quite playful and he was very civil with all the dogs he met. As with any young dog, Monty needs exercise and training: nothing more. He'll supply the love - THE FULL MONTY right back at ya!!! SO PLEASE GIVE HIM that chance to show you HOW MUCH LOVE HE CAN GIVE.

If you can help SAVE MONTY by adopting, fostering or sponsoring... pls e-mail back to this post (reply to the craigslist e-mail above) or call #212-533-0822 TONIGHT!!! Tomorrow will be too late! THANK YOU!

Desmond - Aye, Brothah!




Adorable Little Desmond was saved by a rescue group and they only have 24 hours to find a home/foster home or sponsor- he's a good sweet boy that deserves a second chance.. Won't you SAVE HIM by committing to ADOPTING, FOSTERING or SPONSORING TODAY?!

I never like looking at dogs the first day they come into the shelter, but the community should be aware when a dog is in particular need. Desmond is a 3 year old stray who weigh 46 pounds and was rated "moderate" by our vets on the inital exam on January 23rd. He didn't like being restrained and struggled a bit, but who likes being poked and prodded by strangers? When I saw him, he was in his cage, barking when you looked at him but otherwise quiet. I put my hand in front for him to sniff, and his tail began to wag--and, when another staffer did the same thing, we both agreed he was friendly enough for me to walk. Desmond was a very good and polite boy while we walked outside, but off leash he paced, clearly nervous but never aggressive. When I grabbed a broom to clean up the run, he ran away from it- and when I slipped the leash over his head to walk him back in, he cringed and clamped his eyes shut, bracing himself to be HIT! - THIS POOR BOY WAS ABUSED BY HIS PREVIOUS OWNER! Despite this..he's a VERY FRIENDLY BOY but he is insecure and nervous... so he will need a strong confident Human Pack Leader to give him the reassurance and the confidence that he needs..because he's so submissive, we think he will probably be fine with other dogs but we're not sure about cats.

Won't you be his Pack Leader and give him a second chance to be the dog he can be?!!

If you can give this dog a home or a foster home... please e-mail back to this post or CALL #212-533-0822 IMMEDIATELY as time is of the essence!... thank you!

Jaden






Poor Jaden - Saved from death row at a city shelter... he was boarded in a kennel in PA and he's been there for over 5 months!! He needs to get out of jail ASAP as he desparately wants to be in a home to snuggle up to a human! Won't you please open your heart and home to him ASAP!!

Jaden is a short stocky 60 lb male brown/white amstaff mix who is oh so handsome. Even though he was estimated at 3 yrs old... he is full of energy and greets you with tons of wiggles and kisses! He is sweetheart of dog and will need a bit of obedience training but he's eager to learn and is a complete mush. He is very good with all dogs, big and small but not so good with cats and because he's a bit of jumper, we feel he should not go to a home with small children... but he should be fine with older children 12 yrs+. Because of his jumping, he's still going to need some training... but most of this energy comes from being kenneled for so long and once you get him on a good exercise regimen and good firm discipline... he will be your loyal best friend forever! COME AND MEET HIM TODAY!

If you are interested in meeting JADEN... please e-mail back to the reply e-mail above or call #917-543-6193. Please note there will be a reasonable adoption donation fee requested to cover all his shots, neuter surgery and microchip.

Gorda





Poor Gorda. Her owner has advanced HIV and is very sick and can no longer care for his beloved companion. He reluctantly and tearfully surrendered her to the city KILL SHELTER a few days ago and now she is in danger of being put down!

Please help us to SAVE THIS SWEET DOG!... she deserves another chance at a good home!

Gorda is a sweet 5 year old amstaff who lived a very good life as you can see by her plump figure... she's a bit overweight at 75 lbs!!... but she's all the more to love and just an absolute mush. Her owner assured us that she loves all people, is obedient and housetrained. She walks great on the leash, is very calm even when all the other young dogs were barking at her. She's a snuggle buggle and she just wants to climb into your lap. She would make an owner very happy and loved. She's a real sweetheart, with a beautiful shiny black coat. Won't you give her the second chance she deserves??

If you can commit to ADOPTING or FOSTERING Sweet GORDA... please e-mail back to this post IMMEDIATELY or call #917-543-6193 and leave your callback number... Time is of the Essence as she is in danger of being euthanized in the next day or two! - thank you!

Shy




This Darling Girl only has 24 hours left before she is to be PUT DOWN - please come to her aid and SAVE HER by adopting/fostering/sponsoring so she gets the second chance she deserves!

Sweet Shy is a 2 yr, 50 lb beautiful female black and white pit mix that was found abandoned in an apt and brought to the shelter as a stray after being tranquilized by the police. When she awoke, she was very dazed and confused and struggled a bit with the kennel workers because she was very very frightened... now that she's warmed up and gotten acclimated to the shelter, she has shown herself to be a very nice dog... very frightened and yes very Shy. Several volunteers have commented that she is a very nice little gal, well nourished, obedient (she executes basic commands with precision and speed), good on the leash, and has no handling or agression issues with other dogs. She also poses nicely for photos. She will need a patient human pack leader who will work with her on building her confidence but she's already 1/2 way there... she will make a wonderful loyal companion to someone or to another dog and she's good with cats!! She weighs 50 pounds and is only two years old - please give her the second chance she deserves!

If you can SAVE SHY by committing to adopting, fostering or sponsoring, please e-mail back to this post IMMEDIATELY or call #917-543-6193 and leave your callback info! Pls hurry as Time is of the Essence! Thank you!

*Pease note that there will be a reasonable adoption donation fee requested by the shelter to cover shots, spay surgery and microchip if you adopt
