SAVE LOVE 🐾💔🐾

A dog named Love should never be at risk of being killed

That he was so scared coming in to the shelter that he peed on himself makes him all the more lovable

He enjoys belly rubs, is crate trained & knows his commands

Save Love; get love

DO NOT KILL ZORRO💔🐾

Zorro, the beautiful stray with the famous ears is a bundle of bouncy joy

Look at him play! He loves it &yet can’t decide whether it’s better to play or get love from a human. See video

They’re going to kill him because he’s vocalizing in his cage

You dont have to live in NYC to save them. They will transport pets to homes in NY NJ CT RI DE ME VT NH PA VA DC MD. If you foster, transport/food/vet costs are covered by a rescue organisation

At Risk💔🐾

Speed Racer, an abandoned dog with no place to go, ended up at the shelter where she licked hands & welcomed the attention

Now, for no reason, they plan to kill this friendly pup who just wants to jump into somebody’s lap, play w/ her toys & get/give some ❤️

DO NOT KILL MR PICKLES💔🐾

When u read the words “highly fearful” in a dog’s report, u know they’re going to find any excuse they can to kill him

Mr. Pickles was found w/a wound to his face. He hides when he can but his good nature shines thru as u can c in his vid

Please repost to find a #foster

Thank you Chris. It was unfair to Brock and to his human. I can’t imagine ever killing a healthy dog, but killing a grieving dog and also knowing what that would do his human who is sick? That’s so fucked up

Thank you Jane. I would not be entirely surprised if they killed her tomorrow. I hope we have until Saturday.

She’s a good dog, has done nothing wrong. No GD reason to kill her

DO NOT KILL STELLA💔🐾

U know they’re going to. No video & only 1 pic is the 1st clue

Leash biting & dog reactive. That pretty much seals her fate DESPITE the fact she has 2nd best behavior rating.

Has been there just 11 days, has an ear infection & yet they’ll kill her

Ugh. I was mad when they named an emaciated dog Peach Cobbler. This takes it to a whole new level. Whoever named this dog and the dog named Paper Clip is emotionally stunted or disturbed.

Can we just call him Fan? Seriously, do the people there think all these frightened dogs are a big joke?

Oh never mind, I answered my own question.
