11/01/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: We’ve got quite a few names for the type of dog Shelly is: wiggle worm, sweetie pie, sugar lump, happy girl…I could go on. She’s the kind of dog who is constantly wagging her tail, giving kisses, being affectionate, and just generally reminding you of all the good in the world. Shelly knows how to sit and “give paw” for treats, appears to be housebroken, is super easy to walk on the leash, and is just generally a sweet and lovely lady. At 2 years old, she still loves to play with toys, but is very calm and laid back for her age. Come and see Shelly at the Brooklyn ACC–she could be the perfect companion for you!
