A volunteer writes: Hello, humans! My name is Pink, and I wanted to take a chance to introduce myself. I’m currently hanging out at the Brooklyn shelter, but I’m looking for some more long-term digs, preferably in a home with a couch and some humans I can love. I’m a friendly and calm girl, and I wag my tail as soon as I see my human friends. I love to play and to get loved on by my people. To be honest, I prefer humans to other four-leggeds, and I would really love to be your number one furry gal! I’ve heard that the color pink represents unconditional love and understanding, and that is such a funny coincidence because I am looking for a home where I can get–and give back–all the love possible. Please come on down and meet me for yourself!
