URGENT! 🚨 Please share BUGSY! His life is in danger through no fault of his own! Desperately needs a loving home!
THEY KILLED HIM. 💔😢
SUPER ADORABLE, FRIENDLY, SOCIAL BUGSY HAS BEEN GIVEN THE EUTH COMMAND !
Adopted in August, returned after a few weeks, Bugsy remains the friendly, social pup that he truly is, his adopter did not decompress this poor pup properly ! He has only a few hours to find a home, or he will lose his life !
Beautiful boy Bugsy was returned by his adopter with some surrender notes that didn’t make sense. His owner says he barks and growls at strangers, at dogs, at whatever he sees. Yet, at the ACC, which is full of strangers, this sweet pup is super friendly, super social, no growling and no barking. Bugsy also did great with the female helper dog, his dog to dog notes just made us smile.
This is the problem with returns — the ACC will take the returner’s words literally, even if the dog shows and tells them the truth by their behavior, by their interactions. Sweet and gentle dogs who never showed behaviors accused by their adopters, had been killed, even with many people offering to take them. We know people lie about the dogs, people write us and tell us.
We pray and hope this beautiful boy is given the chance. Bugsy is full of life and innocence, not knowing what lies ahead of him. His trust in people is unshakable. If the adopter was telling the truth, then Bugsy was not decompressed properly. He didn’t feel comfortable, he was tense and felt the need to be on guard. It takes time, dogs need time to get comfortable with his new surroundings, his new people. They need someone to trust so their balance is restored.

We met Bugsy and his cute pink piglet nose back in August. He was adopted, and spent a few weeks in a home that wasn’t able to meet his needs. So now he is back with us and looking for an experienced home and the support of a good rescue to help him out.
Aside from his adorable looks, Bugsy’s most recent home described him as social and affectionate, mellow and playful. He showed off his brain for us giving us his paw when asked and eagerly looking for his payment in treats.
Bugsy seems to suffer from chronic ear infections and other allergies. The vet team has given him medication that’s helping him, both medically and behaviorally. The right home and rescue will continue that journey and help Bugsy feel good inside and out.
Bugsy is at Queens ACC and his ID is #208003
Please help Bugsy find that home that will save his life. He did good in his behavior evaluation, he is eager to interact with people. Get him seen, that’s the only way he will find a home that will save his life!
