PLACED WITH HAPPY GO LUCKY MASTIFF RESCUE BUT IS AWAITING NEUTERING.

Euth command given for sweet Mazi !

Handsome young boy Mazi with such sweet beautiful eyes! This pup has not shown any aggression but is very fearful of strangers. Mazi did great on his behavior evaluation. He was social with the assessor, needed coaxing to approach, and he did. He became scared when he was being handled. This boy was surrendered as a stray so not much is known about his past, we can only imagine why this boy gets so fearful with strangers and at being touched. He has not growled or shown teeth. This is a sweet boy who loves people. Mazi is just coming out of his shell and in his video we can see how happy he is to be taken out to the yard, jumping for joy, jumping at the staff. They take it against these dogs who have been cooped up all day, with no or little human interaction. Of course they will be so excited, coupled with anxiety at their situation, not knowing what’s going to happen to them, hoping and wishing for human attention and a place to call home. This will all settle when they know they are in a home. It should not be taken against them. Please help this young boy to make it out alive, the ACC thinks they have a right to kill them, calling it euthanasia, meaning they are being kind when they kill them. Help poor Mazi, he wants to live, he doesn’t want to die! Watch his video, you’ll see how much he wants to love and to live. 😔

ENERGY LEVEL:: Gomer will need daily mental and physical activity to stay engaged and exercised

BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION:: Level 3

Recommendations:: No children (under 13)
Recommendations comments:: No children (under 13): Due to Gomer's overall level of exuberance and mouthy behavior, we feel as though he would be best set up to succeed in an adult only home environment.

Potential challenges: :
Basic manners/poor impulse control,
Mouthiness/poor bite inhibition,
Fearful,
Leash-biting,
Social hyperarousal

Potential challenges comments::

Basic manners: Gomer jumps up in a social manner. See handout on Basic Manners.
Mouthiness/poor bite inhibition + Social Hyperarousal: Gomer has been observed to become very mouthy during playful interaction or when overstimulated. He has been observed to also escalate to jumping up and grabbing handlers clothing at times. Please see handouts on Mouthiness and Arousal.

Fearful: In the care center, Gomer is initially a bit timid. When given time and soft approach, it has been observed that he will quickly warm up.

Leash Biting: Gomer has been observed to jump up and grab at his leash at times during walks, please see handout on Leash Manners.
Gomer is on emergency placement for behavior concerns. While social, Gomer has appeared highly stressed in the kennel, displaying stereotypical behaviors (jumping up, barking, bouncing off walls).

Additionally, he has begun leash biting and mouthing handlers with hard pressure at times during some interactions. Medically, Gomer is underweight.

Here's what my friends at ACC say:
About me: Gomer arrived at the care center as a stray so information in a home environment remains unknown. While in the care center, Gomer has been social and attention-seeking towards handlers. He has been observed to become easily overstimulated during playful interactions and will escalate to mouthing handlers with moderate to hard pressure. Additionally, Gomer has also been observed to leash bite at times when aroused. Gomer has been becoming increasingly stressed in the care center and is at risk for further deterioration. He would benefit from leaving the shelter and being placed into a home.

Potential challenges: Future caretakers should be experienced and comfortable managing mouthiness, leash biting, and the potential for arousal.

My ideal home is: An experienced, adult-only home.

KILLED 🥵😭

Fifty is abandoned again by his people, and is now looking at death squarely eye to eye. Now, no one will come for him, no interest no support for this handsome, kooky low rider. IT IS FIFTY’S FINAL HOURS!

Friendly, loves people, loves to cuddle, a bit timid with his own kind, this handsome low rider is Fifty, it is unbelievable that no one has stepped up for him. His owners say he is affectionate and followed them around the house, but they threw him out because of his size and his strength. What were they thinking ??? That Fifty is going to stay small all his life ? Now Fifty’s life hangs by the balance. At the ACC, he is friendly, relatively easy to handle, but has become quite frustrated with his situation, jumping on handlers, leash grabbing for attention and to exhaust all that pent up energy. The ACC would say that he is stressed, and is suffering. Now this beautiful dog will be killed for being unwanted. He is rescue only due to his not liking to be disturbed when he’s eating or chewing his bone. That’s an easy fix for an experienced person who would love the size and strength of this grand boy! Please help Fifty find his miracle, he needs to be seen, or he will be killed for being homeless.

Another dog, PAPA BEAR, the shelter will euthanize by 10am if we do not find a FOSTER or ADOPTER. Can someone please step up & help us save PAPA BEAR!! Please share.

HAS UNTIL 10 AM ONLY!

Friendly, social, eager to please and eager to learn! Papa Bear has only hours to find his angel, to step up and save his life. He has had no support, no interest. This handsome young boy just needs out of this shelter environment as he finds it overwhelming. He is rated rescue only because he was defensive and scared during his intake, and he growled. Growling has always been the pet peeve of the ACC, always assuming the dog is not good because he growled. Dogs growl to communicate, to let humans know he is uncomfortable or afraid. After a day or two, Papa Bear is already his usual affable self and has made many friends. He now is considered overly friendly, and overly excited. Rescue ONLY dogs almost have one paw or two in the garbage bag. He needs us now, please get him seen, and advocate for him. Just when he is learning to trust, and has made progress, his life is about to be snatched from him. Please help Papa Bear, he needs our help. He is a gorgeous, affectionate boy, needing an experienced human.

Friends! Our big beautiful boy Kanan here is in need and we need your help! Kanan came to us from New York and if you can believe it he is just 11 months old! He is a big beautiful boy, but he is struggling. We don’t know about Kanan’s past but if we had to guess based on his extreme fear of the dark, hands and feet we believe he was physically abused. 😞 We want to give him the best quality of life and in order to do that we need to build him a sanctuary house asap! We need about $2500 still to make this happen and we need to do it asap! If you can donate to help this gorgeous boy we would greatly appreciate it! Venmo: laylasheartrandr PayPal: [email protected]. It takes an army and we need you, Kanan needs you! Thank you!

We need a foster or adopter for this boy!! He has a euthanization command. Please step up or share, thanks.

GONE

Overly friendly, misunderstood boy with gentle eyes, Crest has only hours to live. He is ALWAYS soft bodied, loose, greets everyone with a wagging tail, Crest is a small dog trapped in a big boy’s body. He gets excited, and gets mouthy, which can be daunting for a dog his size, especially you’re not that familiar with him. We are saddened, this boy has so much love in him, is obedient, but has gotten into situations because understandably, some people don’t know how to handle him. He sits immediately when told to sit even when he’s excited. He’s a mature boy who knows he has to be sweet and loving, but he’s just overdoing it, and has had accidents with his interactions. Now he is at risk, to be forever gone. All that love in him is considered too much for humans. Please read the volunteer note for this sweetheart and know what a love he is. Please help Crest !

A volunteer writes: Each time I go to walk Crest, I find him quietly lounging on his blanket, seeming to tune out all the hectic activity of our large, crowded shelter and the barking dogs around him. He slowly gets up and shyly saunters over...head slightly down, ears back, and looking up at me with those big soulful eyes. Though understandably a little nervous, Crest greatly enjoys cheek and chin rubs - sometimes softly nestling himself into my legs with his tail slowly swishing back and forth; other times gently pressing his big, gorgeous head into my hands as he savors all the attention. Occasionally, right after our interactions, Crest jumps up and grabs the leash, but quickly drops it when I tell him to sit. This big, sweet boy was found wandering loose in a train station, so we only know what his finder told us and what we've observed at the shelter.

SAVED BY AMSTERDOG !

No interest no support for this beautiful boy who will be gone soon because the ACC needs his kennel. Handsome, friendly with everyone he meets, allowed all handling, and PASSED HIS BEHAVIOR EVALUATION WITH FLYING COLORS. Paranorman doesn’t care if he knows you or not, he just is friendly, even tempered, easy to manage, seeks contact and leans in for more. Look at the eye contact in this pic, how calmly he looks at his human friend, giving his paw. Beautiful eyes, beautiful gaze, and this boy just is a beautiful dog. Although brought in as a stray, we are sure he was someone’s pet not long ago, his clean coat just emphasizes his good manners. Please, dog lovers, we ask you to help Paranorman, he needs a home. The ACC Is claiming some behavior issue that has cropped up in recent days, but we leave it up to you to decide who to believe. We can see that this dog is not only a handsome dog, but a good dog. Paranorman needs to be seen, and he’s counting on all of us, to help him find his miracle.

Theo David was KILLED BY Manhattan ACC 😢
RIP sweet soul... You mattered...

His parents named him Ghost. But the shelter has named him THEO DAVID. He is confused by that, but not as confused as he is by the behavior or his parents who he loved and adored and who have dumped him at the shelter to die. Shut down, trying to keep anyone from getting near him in case they want to hurt him, he suffers in silence and nurses his broken heart. It was not as if he did anything to deserve this treatment. He was outgoing, playful and affectionate with the 9 year old child he spent time with, he was respectful of other dogs, and he lived with and played gently and affectionately with the family’s 2 cats! Housetrained and with a sterling resume, you’d think he would have been cherished and adored. He sits in his small kennel, trying to imagine why this happened. Was it the time his parent got too playful and rough with him and he grabbed their shoes and pants in his excitement? He was sorry for that. He didn’t mean to play tug with their clothing and scare them. And yes, he knows he was protective of his family on walks, but many dogs are like that when they are out on leash, and he was just trying to show them he would have their back no matter what! Theo really needs an experienced foster or adopter who sees his wonderful credentials and realize there are always two sides to every story. He can’t tell his side, only we can. Hurry and message our page or email us at [email protected] if you can give this precious boy a home.
