Colorado - A709461 - Pit Bull

Colorado is a 1 year old Pit Bull Mix. He has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 5/17/07.

What a wonderful dog Colorado is! He loves us Humans :) He greets everyone with lots of kisses and hugs, yes a hug. He has such a cheerful disposition, but aren't all pit bulls who are raised properly?? They are such goofy loving dogs :) He is also good around other dogs. Very playful...

Prince/Bullie - A708256 - American Staffordshire Terrier

Prince/Bullie is a 1 year old American Staffordshire Terrier. He has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 5/10/07.

Prince is beautiful. He reminded me of my Max :) He was a little fearful in his cage. As we walked around the roof he began to warm up to me. It took him a while though. Turns out he's a loving soul and I am so glad to have met him. He loved when I petted his belly, and when I petted underneath his neck he rested firmly against my legs. What a charmer. I didn't want to put him back but....

When I was leaving the shelter I passed by his cage and didn't find any of his paperwork. I fear the worst but am hoping for the best!

Mayla - A576155 - Labrador Pit Mix

Mayla is a 3 year old Labrador and Pit Mix. She has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 5/11/07.

Mayla is such a beautiful dog. When I first met Mayla she was growling at me in her cage with tail between her legs. She even managed to show a few teeth, so I pulled a Cesar. I put my back to the cage and let her sniff me. She stood up and sniffed, still shaking. Then I turned around and she rubbed her body against the cage for me to touch her. She then put her head against the bars, I put my hands through and massaged her, and kissed her forehead.

It's such a shame what these dogs go through. She came from a well-balanced home, was obviously well taken care of and in great health. But her owners had to give her up because their landlord did not want the dog in the building anymore. Now because of this, who knows what will happen to her. Such a fine dog....

Mayla obviously gets along with other dogs. She was flirting with Brooklyn below. She did the play bow and then laid down, patiently waiting for him to come closer. It was amazing to watch. Us ladies can learn a thing or two from Mayla :) Unfortunately, we couldn't let them get too close. Those are the rules at the shelter.

Brooklyn - A706837 - Pit Bull Mix

Brooklyn is a 1 year and 6 month old pit bull mix. He has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 5/9/07.

Brooklyn is a dream. Us volunteers loved spending time with him. He loves to love! I think he has some german shepherd in him. The hair and coloring seem more german shepherd than pit.

Anyway, Brooklyn is also okay with other dogs. He and Mayla (above) were eyeing each other the whole time. More her than him, he was playing hard to get. Check out the pics above.

Amber - A708188 - Pit Bull Mix

Amber is a 1 year old pit bull mix. She has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 5/10/07.

Amber is one energetic lady. She was so calm in the cage, but when she came out, she was all over the place. She loves to play also, she likes to tug at the leash. I was only able to get one shot of her because she was too hyper. She didn't sit still!

Amber needs out. Once in a safe and loving home, she will be more at ease and calmer. She needs an owner who will take the time to make her feel comfortable.

Archer is such a beautiful dog. He was hanging out with one of the other volunteers, so of course I had to say hi.

Syndil - A708246 - American Staffordshire Terrier

Syndil is a 1 year and 6 month old American Staffordshire Terrier. She has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 5/10/07.

Syndil stole the heart of myself and the other volunteers who were there today. The woman in the pic is another volunteer. Syndil appears to have been starved. She is very underweight.

Syndil was a joy. She loves to lounge and hang out. She loves to be petted and hugged and she returns the love :) We spent a lot of time with Syndil. It was hard to tear ourselves from her.

She is also at ease with other dogs around. She just basked in the sun and watched them walk by :)

Bob - A708591 - Pit Bull Mix

Bob is a 6 month old pit bull mix. He has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 5/13/07.

Bob was a pleasure to be with. He has a bad back left leg so he limps when he walks, but that didn't stop him from keeping up with me. He was right by my side all the way. When he did get tired he laid down. He loves belly rubs as you can see from the pics. When another dog came outside, he did get a bit nervous and jump up and bark, but when I nudged him with the leash he stopped and laid back down. From that point on, when a dog came out, he remained calm and rested. All he needed was for me to let him know that it was okay to relax with other dogs around.

Jack - A707687 - American Pit Bull Terrier

Jack is a 7 month old American Pit Bull Terrier. He has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 5/7/07.

I was only able to get one shot of Jack and it's not the best :( But I did have a great time with him. At first he walked way behind me. I think he was trying to feel me out because about a few minutes later he was jumping all over me and leading the way. He's still a puppy so he likes to use his teeth a lot. He does need some training, so a patient owner, who is willing to give him the time he needs, is best for Jack.

Max - A706131 - Pit Bull

I met Max very briefly. I was about to take him for a walk when a young woman came by and said she was adopting him. Of course, I jumped for joy and thanked her profusely. Two adoptions in one day. That's amazing for me!!!!!

Congratulations Max on finding your forever home :)

Lenex Lews is a wonderful dog. He is a strong dog and needs some leash control. He pulls and pulls. He loves to greet people and other dogs. He is still young, so he can be easily trained to walk by your side. He loves to be hugged and kissed and returns the love. He also likes to keep on the move, so be prepared to walk, and walk, and run and walk and run and run :)
