A volunteer writes: Affectionate and mellow, Sasha’s main qualities according to her former owner who lost her home… Sasha(13 year old and owned since age 3 month) counts many more wonderful attributes under her sleeve.. She lived in harmony with many children …and dogs….and cats of all ages and was playful with them. Here at the care center, Sasha goes with the flow.  She is a debonair ” little ” dog who is glad  to be in company and gives you her best smile when she sees that you seem to care for her. She mingles with other little dogs in playgroups, uneventfully. Sasha is a slow walker, climbs stairs, does her business on the way but pants due to her weight. A proper diet and more walks will certainly help her to slim down and protect her heart. Sweet Sasha is an elderly but in loving and caring hands will make a new owner blessed to have her for the rest of her golden years. Sasha is at the Manhattan Care Center.
