07/19/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Tay is a giant PUPPY! He is super wiggly, has the most adorable pout, and knows how to have a good time. He is easy to handle on leash and looks up often; when I talk to him or we make eye contact he adds a bouncy hop to his step like a little deer! He previously lived with a small dog (they would follow each other around…what a duo!), was friendly towards children that visited the house, needs work on housetraining, and liked to run on the beach boardwalk. He loves to play with toys and when I toss one for him he initiates a play bow filled dance with it — adorable! He’s friendly to everyone we encounter, gives kisses, and is really engaging and fun! He is energetic but when he needs a break he’s very cuddly and will rest his head in my lap. True to form, Tay has engaged in puppy-like play in our playgroups with other dogs. Sweet, playful, treat-motivated, and loving…Tay has all the makings of a best friend!! He’s already neutered and ready to become yours today; please come see him at Brooklyn ACC.
