My story

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

Ricky is a truly loving and gentle soul who adores being petted and having his belly rubbed. He is a 5-6 year old handsome Shepherd mix who weighs approximately 77 lbs. Ricky is housetrained and not destructive when left at home. He loves going for walks and exploring outside. He also loves to snuggle and is calm inside the house. Ricky  is in excellent health and always greets his Foster mom with joy when she gets home. Ricky gets along with other dogs but we do not know how he would do around cats. His ideal home would be with humans who have time to spend loving him and keeping him company along with a fenced backyard.  Ricky is currently in New York City which is not an ideal living situation for a dog his size. Ricky is neutered and up to date on age appropriate vaccines.

The adoption fee is $275. We require adopters to have a fully secured backyard and not electric or invisible fence which does not keep all dogs safely contained.

More about this rescue

Gimme Shelter Animal Rescue is a 501c3 nonprofit organization based on Long Island NY. We rescue dogs and puppies who are at risk of being euthanized in high-kill facilities across the South. Every animal we rescue is quarantined where they get vaccinated and given any medical attention needed to get them healthy. We then transport the animals up to NY where they go into our wonderful foster homes until we find them all pre screened loving forever homes. We will adopt out-of-state on a case by case basis, including, but not limited to, New Jersey, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Pennsylvania.
Our goal is to find the best possible homes for our animals, to ensure a life-long loving commitment. We are dedicated to the well-being of our animals. One by One until there are none!
