A volunteer writes: Introducing the sweetest and rarest superfruit around…RAZZLEBERRY!! This beautiful little cow is easily among the most gentle, docile, sweet dogs I’ve ever encountered. She walks beautifully on leash, seems housebroken, and has been a superstar in our playgroups with other dogs. She might seem a little lost sometimes, but still manages to be very engaging and affectionate. She rests her head on my lap, nuzzles my hands for petting, makes super soft eye contact, and just fills my stomach with warm fuzzy feelings every time! She might have a distinguished palate when it comes to treats, but she’s very intelligent and responds to “sit,” ‘down” and “paw.” I came across a found dog ad for her in which the finder noted that she didn’t respond to “go home”…I have no doubt that she would if she knew where it was!! Please come see this dreamboat at Brooklyn ACC and put “home” on her map!
