08/20/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Blue is VERY often on a walk with a volunteer. I love to see the pair, him, leaving for the park with a wiggly butt, tail up and happy and she(or he) coming back with a wide smile. A good time they had as Blue is really a very nice, sociable and friendly dog. He was nervous when he came in and his kennel is not his cup of tea but he makes the best with what he has now. He is a smart pooch. Blue came to us with Precious, his housemate, as their owner was no longer able to care for them. He comes with excellent words and we believe that Blue would make an excellent, active, intelligent and loving companion. He has been beautifully cared for and looks like he is coming from a grooming salon..I do not think there is a need to add that he is as cute a button… Blue is at the Manhattan Care Center, waiting for you and dreaming to start his life again at 10!!! It is never too late for love and fun….
