Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Linus is a medium sized dog, approximately four-years-old and weighs 48lbs. He looks like a small American Bulldog but his ears are cropped in the style of the Cane Corso Italiano. Linus has a great medium energy level and enjoys playing and petting in equal measure. He is very treat motivated, which is a boon during training sessions, and takes all treats with a gentle mouth. Despite his tough guy looks Linus can be a little timid with new people or in unfamiliar situations but quickly comes around. Linus is a classic case of don’t judge a books by its cover and he needs to be given the opportunity to meet people outside his pen so he can really shine and show off his gentle charm.
Please call the shelter 516-944-8220 during working hours (Mon. to Fri. 9AM-4PM; Sat. 10-4PM) for more information about Linus, the adoption process at the shelter, and to confirm availability. Please go to www.theshelterconnection.com for more information about and directions to the shelter.
