Meet Finn – From Shelter Shadows to Sunshine Days 🌞🐾
Once known as King Joe at the NYC ACC, this sweet 3 year old pittie mix was running out of time. He landed on the At-Risk list, facing euthanasia simply because the system was too full—and his past had left him scared and misunderstood. But everything changed the day he became Finn.
When Finn first arrived in our care, his fear was clear. He was too scared to potty outside, terrified of balls, and even unsure about wearing a collar. He craved affection but had no idea how to navigate the world around him. He had zero structure, no training, and carried the weight of uncertainty everywhere he went.
But Finn had something else too: heart. With love, patience, and consistent training, Finn began to blossom. Step by step, he conquered his fears. Now? He's a total goofball who lights up the yard with his zoomies. He LOVES playing fetch, soccer, learning new tricks, and cuddling like a champion. 🎾⚽🐶
Finn is friendly, affectionate, and full of energy. He’s still working on resource guarding with other dogs, so he’d do best as a solo companion or with a patient adopter who can help guide him.
Finn is a survivor, a learner, and a lover. He’s come so far, and now he’s just waiting for his forever home where he can shine.
