My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Note: This wonderful pet is at a high kill shelter. Please contact us at 646 724 0597 ASAP if you are interested in adopting or fostering her. Thanks.


Shepter (oh, the names we give our animals) was found way west on 184th Street in Manhattan. This handsome 1-1/2 year old American Staffordshire mix (with perhaps a dash of boxer in him, given his distinctive muzzle), has unusual coloring. His fur coloring is hard to describe: his record says "sable," which might be a good description for his brown and orange coat. Whatever it is, it becomes him. Shepter knows some commands: he sits on cue, for example. He's easy to lead on a leash. He might look a toughie at first glance, but Shepter is all taffy inside. He's a calm boy. For example, one of our volunteers got her leash all tangled around his neck. Shepter calmly sat there while a Shelter staff worker untangled that holy mess. Shepter couldn't have been more patient. Drop by and meet our Shepter. He's a model citizen.
