Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Saint Nick came to us from NYCACC after being found at the base of a stairwell, with his leg completely crushed. We don’t even want to think about how he ended up like that, but considering there was no one there claiming him, we can only imagine it was from a very bad situation/ owner. He had pieces of bone scattered all throughout his mangled leg. They originally thought it was going to need to be amputated, but after many surgeries it seems that he will do well with the leg over time! He is going for therapy often to help with mobility with that leg, which we will continue for him once he’s in his forever home, so please do not let his medical issue hold you back from meeting him, because once you meet him, you’ll fall in love! Saint Nick is a young, happy, sweet, affectionate boy who is friendly with other dogs too. He knows sit and takes treats gently, he is energetic but calms down quickly. We just adore him and want him to get into a loving home as fast as possible. Saint Nick is currently in foster care in Glen Cove. Please email us to find out how to meet him!

More about this rescue
Air Twiga Animal Rescue helps dogs from high kill shelters who are on the brink of euthanization, who are in immediate need of specialised medical care or surgery, who have been abused and starved, who have been abandoned, who have been lost in natural disasters such as hurricanes.
Working with Pilots N Paws we were one of the first responders to Hurricane Harvey flying 100 dogs by jet and helicopter to safe haven and taking in many of the dogs ourselves, some of which were heart worm positive and most of which were forgotten Pit Bulls and small near drowned
Yorkies, Jack Russells and small pups.
Our dogs are evaluated and trained by reknown behaviourist, Dr. Karlene Bonnes (PhD Cornell), founder of Animal Behaviour Specialists.
