Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Columbiaville, NY
Meet Diamond! An adorable 83 lb pit mix who survived FOUR times on the euthanasia list at the NYC ACC! She would so love to be a lap doggie and could snuggle with you all day! Likely a previous family dog, Diamond is ready for her new adoptive home!
A shelter favorite- here is what one shelter volunteer had to say about her:
Diamond and I are inseparable…. There is no way I can take a picture of her whole body or even her face without having myself unfortunately in it…Diamond is a love bug, a velcro dog, a bit anxious and so needy of human presence. Looking at her, her rotund shape, her perfect coat, her great state of health , her dislike to return to her kennel, and her sociability, I know that she was a house dog, a family pooch, just yesterday… Maybe she was left behind when her people moved….Diamond is quiet in her den. I thought at first that she was not used to a leash, going here and there on our walk… Once it the park, she was a perfect walker, pulling just a little, not forgetting to do her business in one stop. A “break” under a tree and in the shade was most welcome, mostly after a drink of fresh water and a snack. Not that Diamond needs more food. A treadmill should be more like it on her wish list….Diamond really enjoyed the park, the smells , kids running around and of course, my lap… She is a real tank who does not know her weight and size. Diamond has so much love to give and such a need to belong. I really love this big gal who will be a wonderful friend and confidant to the new owner who will give her the chance to be adopted and offer her a caring home.
Diamond yearns to be be a family dog once again, she would love to snuggle up on your lap and be your best friend! Please consider this precious girl!
