I'm sponsoring a dog in New York!

I recently encountered this site through an ad in Oprah's magazine.

http://www.animalhavenshelter.org/

It's a no-kill shelter in New York that keeps sick/disabled/special needs animals that are harder to adopt out, through sponsor donations. They also adopt out many other animals as well. The ones that are harder to place often need sponsors, some live their entire life at the shelter.

I saw the ad, and went to check out the site. I had a hard time picking an animal, (thus excluding the others) so I asked the shelter to accept my sponsorship donation, and assign me an animal.

They gave me Anastasia:


She is SO CUTE. She's an eight year old shepherd mix who was abandoned at the shelter as a pup, and has lived there all her life.

If you are in the NYC area, stop by and say hello to my girl! I live in CA, but would love to meet her someday. We are allowed to visit and send treats.

I am so excited!

1. what a beaut

German sheperds make excellent pets. A well trained sheperd is the best behaved dog you can get

2. I wish I could take her home!

I have two other dogs already, both shelter rescues, plus I am in CA.
Maybe someone will adopt her eventually, but if not, she at least has a sponsor. She sure is pretty!
