05/28/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Have you ever been to a party and watched an older person on the dance floor having the best time? That’s what I thought of when I met our Queen. Surrendered to our care due to NYCHA restrictions Queen comes with a glowing resume which tells us that she lived with 3 children ages 2-16, the 2 yo rode her like a horse, lived well with 2 cats, is housetrained, doesn’t guard her ‘stuff’, knows several commands, and loves to play with toys. Queen showed off her housetraining skills the moment we were out the door, she’s a bit chunky (fed with love) has the cutest freckled ears, one blue and one brown eye, and is a tail waggy happy girl. She loved bouncing around with a toy in the backyard which is what reminded me of an older person ‘cutting the rug’ on a dance floor. Impressive! Queen enjoyed her time in playgroup with other dogs her size (and even a smaller one),and when we were in the backyard she loved watching a group of “smalls” playing in an adjoining pen. Queen brings with her maturity, a calm and gentle demeanor, sprinkled with the love of playing with a toy, a person and another dog. She’s lived well and it shows, so our behavior team feels she’ll do well in a home with average dog experience. Queen is looking for her new kingdom in which to live out her retirement years. Welcoming her into your home will be an amazing gift to both of you.
