Frenchy Taylor
Hello, my name is Frenchy Taylor. My animal id is #17188. I am a male white dog at the Manhattan Animal Care Center. The shelter thinks I am about 14 years old.
I came into the shelter as a owner surrender on 29-Dec-2017, with the surrender reason stated as person circumstance- cannot afford to care for.
Frenchy Taylor is at risk due to medical condition, geriatric underlying. Frenchy Taylor may have a possible kidney infection but prognosis is still open and may require more tests. Frenchy has allowed all handling in the care center and should go to an adopter who is prepared to manage medical care for a geriatric pup.
My medical notes are…
Weight: 18 lbs
