02/27/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Brindle meatball anyone? If you’re looking for a lovable, mushy, low-riding goofball – look no further. Tony may be all muscle in a compact package but he’s bursting at the seams with love. The name “Tony” always makes me think of “West Side Story” and this sweet boy could easily play the lead. Excited and jostling in his cage, he quickly ushered us outside for his walk and immediately did his business. Once in a pen he wanted one thing – to be as close to me as possible! Romance at its finest. Other pups came in and out of an adjoining pen and Tony certainly took notice but had nothing but tail wags for them. This boy is a lover. He is also curious and bright, and has a smile that doesn’t stop. He is currently unaltered so does attempt to mount with some frequency. Well we can’t be romantic all the time! An issue easily fixed by neutering. Tony, a gentle soul in a macho package is just looking for love, for his “Maria.” Could that be you? Tony is waiting at Manhattan’s Animal Care Center.
