DO NOT KILL FAYE VALENTINE💔🐾

Faye entered the shelter a wiggly, tail wagging stray & stayed friendly during intake exam. Since then she’s been sick w/kennel cough & nervous when taken to the street for walks

Her gentle nature is apparent on her video and oh those eyes!

At Risk💔🐾

Volunteer says Saphire was nervous & confused at first, recently “she has allowed herself to be a bit more of a silly puppy...Her back legs can’t keep up w/her front when she zooms around as if she just grew into her paws. Her uncoordinated antics delight us”

🐾Just 1-y/o, Saphire was dropped off at a police station after giving birth in June. Super cute, young, playful & cooperative, good leash-walker. Earned 2nd best behavior, she has been working hard w/ a trainer learning new skills. Available to foster or adopt by 10/04: nycacc.app#/browse/230872

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.
