Fergus
|
Fergus is a small fella who
some how made his way to the Brooklyn high kill shelter on 5/29/08. He
is four years old and weighs in at 50 pounds. It is hard to believe he
is 50 pounds because in person he looks so small. The day I met him
he was such a happy boy wagging his tail at all who approached him. He
has beautiful fur that reminds me of some sort of Tiger. Fergus knows how
to sit and give paw and only wants to please his person. Poor Fergus is
not so happy any more as the shelter has only given him a day or two more
at my request. I am looking for a foster or a permanent home for Fergus.

Johnny
|
Johnny is being held in a municipal
shelter. He, along with three others, were found in a terrible state.
Johnny's ears were torn and he was full of cuts and scars. He was
also severely malnourished, with bones showing in his ribs, shoulders and
back. Despite all of this, he shows very few ill effects from his
horrible abuse. He is still very timed, but is excellent with people
and not agressive with other dogs. He is a male staffie mix, approxilmately
3 years old. He presently weighs 36 lbs. and should weigh about 45
lbs. when fully recovered. He would love a nice warm home and could
even use a really great foster.

Brownie
|
Brownie is a 1 1/2 years
old and only weighs 27 pounds. It is hard to understand how anyone could
have left this sweet boy in a city high kill shelter but they did. He loves
people and dogs alike. Brownie's time in foster care is up and his foster
mom reports: Brownie is very alert (no one will be sneaking up on you!),
very affectionate and very energetic but also has couch potato status.
He loves to be close to his humans and he shares his toys (just adores
stuffed toys!), His favorite thing to do is jump in my lap and sit
with me on my porch and watch the world go by. He walks well on a leash.
He is a little man with a big heart, a real trooper that adjusts to many
situations without any hesitations.

Ginger

Hello there, my names Ginger
and I was off on a three hour cruise (or longer) of Queens when the weather
started getting rough. If not for the courage of the fearless Mighty
Mutts volunteers, I certainly would have been lost! I'm still a bit
shaken by my ordeal and can be a little shy, but once I get to know you,
I'm really quite sweet. I'm a very gentle and affectionate 2 and
a half year old, 65 lb fenale staffie mix who bonds in no time flat.
Could you be the special person I bond with forever?

Woofie
|
Hi there, my name's Woofie.
I'm an 8 year old, 60 lb. Jindo mix who was found wandering the streets
of Brooklyn, I was really skinny and malnourished at the time, but it was
hard to tell because my fur was so overgrown and matted. To put it bluntly,
I was a mess! Fortunately, Mighty Mutts rescued me, cleaned me up,
and took care of all of my other woes. Now I'm a perfectly behaved
lady of a certain age who loves nothing more but to play, snuggle and take
nice relaxing walks. I'd be a perfect friend for you if you'd give
me a chance!

Sarah

Hello, I'm Sarah.
Far from being "Plain and Tall", I'm actually kind'a "Special and Short"!
Iwas found wandering around looking for some grub in a trash heap.
Oh yeah, I was also just about to have a litter of puppies! Mighty
Mutts took me in and, I must say, the accomodations are much better!
I had my puppies, all safe and sound, and Mighty Mutts found homes for
all of them! Now I'm fully recovered, fit as a fiddle and ready for
a home! I'm a two year old, 40 lb. female staffie mix who's very sweet,
friendly and curious. I'm so curious that I'm just dying to find
out what it would be like to go home with you!

Sunshine

Hello, My name is Sunshine,
but I was found when the clouds were gray in April when I was only 6 months
old. Somebody left me in Prospect Park to fend for myself and I wasn't
doing to good at it. I was skinny and full of worms but still had
my sunny disposition (even though someone had cropped my tail!).
Now I'm just a bundle of playful fun and I'm rarin' to go. I'm a
young, 50 lb. female Husky mix and I want to be your only Sunshine.
You'll never know, dear, how much I can love you, until you come and take
your Sunshine away!

Willy

Hello, my name is Willy.
I was rescued by a Mighty Mutts volunteer from a municipal shelter that
was going to kill me because I took up too much room! That it, nothing
else! I have a real friendly personality with people and animals
and I'm perfectly healthy, but they just had too many of "those kind of
dogs". Could you imagine? Anyway, I'm here now (whew!) and
just waiting for you. I'm a very gentle 18 month old male staffie
mix and I weigh about 65 lbs. I'm really just all around great, why
not meeat me for yourself and find out?

Hello there, I'll aim to please and my

mix who's just lookin' for a place to settle down. Nobody knws much
about me, since I was pulled out of a municipal facility after I was found
on the street, but I'm pretty sure that I had an "interesting" life.
Fortunately, all of that is behind me now! I'm a very mellow gal
who's still quite playful and also quite sure of herself, so I'll need
a friend wiht plenty of experience. I'm a little deaf but, as you
can see, am otherwise in great shape! Please take me home with you!

Mighty Mutts has a no questions asked return policy, so here I am, safe
and sound, waiting for you! I'm a female Staffie mix, about 50 lb.s
and almost 2 years old. I'm very well mannered and loving and can't

Hi there, I'm Luna, I'm
a 2 year old, 50 lb. Sheppherd mix who was abandoned by my family when
they moved. I don't know how they could have done that, I'm awfully
sweet and obedient and, quite frankly, kind'a bummed out by the whole thing!
Some nice person found me and is paying to board me in a kennel until a
great home comes along. Don't get me wrong, I'm really grateful,
but wold mch rather be bedding down with you than staying in a kennel.
Please help me out, you won't regret it!

Jerry Lee
|
Well they shook my nerves and rattled
my brains, too much love could certainly drive a man insane. I can
sure attest to that! My names Jerry Lee and for nearly
3 years I was used as breeding stock in the deep south (of Brooklyn).
Even though I had the good part of the job, after a while it certainly
was taxing! I was picked up off of the the street and
neutered (goodness gracious!) and my former "friends" didn't want me anymore,
so I'm sruck in a municipal shelter, I have some time but I sure
could use your help! I'm a three year old, 65 lb. male staffie mix
who's quite freindly and socialble. Since I can't get my exercise
the way I used to anymore, I'd love to go home with someone who is athletically
active. Could that be you?

Apache

Adorable one year old Apache,
is still looking for his Chief. He is a great little guy at 45 pounds,
fun loving, active, can be rambunctious, but very deep, just look into
those soulful eyes of his. And not to mention those extraordinary markings
on his face that nature gave him. A good Chieftain who loves to jog with
him, take him outdoors and throw a ball and give him good pack leadership
is all he needs and longs for. When I took Apache out on a walk recently
from the boarding facility he is staying at, he eagerly ran up to every
door we passed and turned to me as if to say...."Is this going to be my
new home?" Apache has all his shots, is fully vetted, neutered and micro
chipped too.

Leo

Hi there, my name is Leo,
that's short for Leonidas! I may look loke a Greek God, but my story
was almost a Greek tragedy. I was found sick, mangy and starving
on the streets of Athens by some nice tourists (yup, that's right, and
I don't mean Athens Georgia). They nursed me back to health and took me
home with them to good ol' NYC, USA! I'm a real good fellow and very
mellow, but, after my experiences, I just can't handle the city life anymore.
I'm a 1 year old, 40 lb. male of very distinguished origins (i.e., your
guess is as good as mine!). Why not take me home with you to the
'burbs so that we can both have a nice, peaceful life!

Ahoy there matey! My name's Nelson

saw my noble demeanor and did their duty! In short, I got sprung
and am now comfortably waiting for a fair wind to take me to a home.
I'm a two year old, 70 lb., male brindle/lab mix. I'm very friendly
and just a little rambunctious. Why not sign a‘board and take
me home?

plus I'm very gentle and love everyone. I'm an 18 month old, 55 lb,

Sprocket
|
This is Sprocket. Sprocket
was found less than a year ago when he was abandoned behind Walmart during
a snow storm. He has since been living in a wonderful home, however, his
new owner is unable to continue caring for him. Therefore, Sprocket, once
again, needs to find a new home. He is a fabulous dog. He does not do well
with cats. He is neutered and up to date on shots, heartworm negative,
and microchipped. He is very well trained, loves to give kisses and cuddle.
His favorite game, which will keep him busy for hours, is chasing a flashlight
light or laser dot.

Brody

I'm Brody
and I was found roaming around the streets of Brooklyn by a very
nice lady who took me in . I actually didn't give her much choice!
I went right up to her, wagged my tail with delight, and jumped straight
up to give her a great big old bear hug. I knew I had a good thing, so
I folowed her straight home, no leash or treats required (She can't keep
me though, NUTS!) !
I'm (obviously) an
extremely sweet and affectionate fellow, I love to run and play fetch,
and I'll never cease to make you laugh your heart out. I'm real smart too!
I know my basic commands, such as 'sit,''stay,' 'roll over,' and I also
understands those commands in sign language. I'm a 3 year old, 50 lb, male
Staffie mix who loves people and dogs and I would love to follow you home
next!

Cash

Hi! I'm Cash, a chocolate
lab-pit mix. I'm a sweet, energetic boy, who loves to have my belly rubbed,
run with other dogs, and above all else go hiking and swimming (if you
didn't know better you'd swear I was a fish). Because I was kept in the
mud room for the first year of my life (otherwise I'd have been locked
in the crate for 10 hours)I can be a bit anxious. So the city makes me
a little crazy(i get a bit obsessed with bikes and skateboards and crowds
overwhelm me) My foster mom lives outside the city so i can run and
play and be a good, happy boy. To stay that way I should stay outside the
city. She says I need an owner who will make me feel the world is a safe
place.
Please open up your heart to me, I will
love you more than you thought possible!
He
is not good in crowds and a home outside of Manhattan would be ideal.

My name is Gia. I am a

My mom has to move and she can't take me. I would like to go to a family
with older children as im a bit tempermental with young children. I do
reside with a 2,7,8 yr.old now, but when I'm sleeping in the corner and
they come up to my face, I tend to nip. Otherwise, I'm very
gentle, and I would be happy to go
to a couple or single person.

Midas
|
Midas, named after the
king in Greek mythology who could turn things into gold with his touch,
was found abandoned on a street near my house in Brooklyn. He was
very scared and tired. We took him to the vet and made sure he got
his shots, blood tests, and fecal tests. Everything was fine.
Midas is furry like bear and very sweet. He gets along just fine
with my dog. He has shown no signs of aggression. He is quiet
and doesn’t get on the furniture. He tries to be very compliant.
He has come a long way in the past week and I know he could be a wonderful
dog if he was in the right home with someone who could give him love and
stability. I can’t keep him because one dog is really all I can manage
right now. He holds his tail between his legs when he is uncomfortable
or scared and has been afraid of my movements if they are too abrupt but
in just 1 week he has started to feel much more comfortable around me.
He doesn’t require a lot of exercise like my other dog but he likes to
go outside. He really is sweet and he really needs a foster or permanent
home.

Coffee

Hello, my name is Coffee
and I'm extra sweet! That's a real surprise considering that, when
I was rescued, I was being dragged around with a chain and beaten with
a baseball bat! They must've been tea-totallers, cuz' I certainly
didn't deserve that treatment. After all of that, I love people!
I love to give kisses and will sit for hours if you're petting me and giving
me love. I'm a 3.5 years old female about 70 lbs., and I'm picky about
the dogs I'll play with [I do like boys :) ] but if you take me home I'll
love you for life!
