A volunteer writes:
What’s not to love  about Almond, a gentle little fox, a chunky papa, a sweet and still up and about elder who enjoys his walk and the company of a human.  He loves caresses and soft words that coax him to march into my arms from his upper kennel. He is a bit heavy but his red coat is fluffy, silky and his eyes are so tender….Almond walks relatively well on the leash, even that overgrown hair jam his little feet.He does his business as we  stroll slowly 1/2  around the block. He is not afraid nor barks at other dogs.  As a matter of fact, he is very curious of them and seeks  their presence .He looks  up and comes when I call him.  He likes soft treats that he chomps happily.  Almond is an adorable and still lively older Pom with the ailments due to his age. He is friendly and sociable accross the board, a good lap dog and will bless a new master or family by his presence. Come and meet him at the Manhattan Care Center. Give him the love and the golden years he deserves.

Profile:

Client stated he found Almond in Central park around 5:45pm. Almond was walking but limping and when he picked him up he realized he was bleeding but wasn’t sure where the blood was coming from.
