Four Legged Friends is a weekly column by Bariann Browne, lifelong Long Island resident and communications coordinator for North Shore Animal League America. Bariann’s weekly posts highlight the League’s amazing animals, just a small example of the thousands of loving, loyal pets waiting for forever homes at your local animal shelter.
Cindy is a gorgeous female Shepherd mix with a face anyone could fall in love with. At 8 years young, this beauty will make a wonderful companion for anyone looking for a sweet, gentle girl. She is friendly and alert with intelligence to boot. Cindy will do best in a home with children over 6. Cindy's adoption number is T69310. Cindy will be available for adoption on our Clear the Shelters special Saturday where all adoption fees will be waived.
Hailing from Tennessee, Frankie is a 1 year old female Ponter/Pit Bull mix who has quickly become a favorite of staff and volunteers. Frankie does better with other dogs of similar size, as she does not always get along with smaller pups. Friendly and always ready to please, Frankie will make a wonderful dog for any family and a companion for life. Frankie's adoption number is T8816. Frankie will be available for adoption on our Clear the Shelters special Saturday where all adoption fees will be waived.
Gunner, a 12 year old male Border Collie mix is a strong boy looking for a forever home and a lifelong playmate. While he can be a bit aloof upon first meeting him, Gunner is quick to develop a strong friendship with people and enjoys being handled and given attention. Gunner would like to meet any other canines in the household and requires previous dog experience due to his energy levels. Gunner's adoption number is G17792. Gunner will be available for adoption on our Clear the Shelters special Saturday where all adoption fees will be waived.
Dutch is a 2 year old male Domestic Shorthair who has been described as "super playful". This bundle of joy is FIV+ (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) but doesn't let that stop him from having a good time and making new friends. Dutch would do very well in a home with a playmate available, can adapt to just about any home. Dutch's adoption number is R161131. Dutch will be available for adoption on our Clear the Shelters special Saturday where all adoption fees will be waived.
Boots and Dozen are a double adoption. Boots is a 5 year old male Domestic Shorthair and Dozen is a 1 year old male Domestic Shorthair. Boots is a bit overweight but is still quick on his feet during playtime. Dozen is a bit more gentle but still loves a good play session with his companion Boots. Both of these boys are big mushy lap cats. Boots' adoption number is R118916 and Dozen's adoption number is H205826. Boots and Dozen will be available for adoption on our Clear the Shelters special Saturday where all adoption fees will be waived.
