My story

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

Meet Tonya – A Gentle Soul Ready to Bloom 7 Month-Old Brindle Terrier Mix | Rescued from South Carolina
Tonya is a beautiful gal with the softest eyes and a heart full of hope. Rescued off the euthanasia list at an overcrowded shelter in South Carolina, she’s now safe—but still learning that the world can be kind.
Tonya is a shy and sensitive pup who takes her time getting comfortable in new environments. Loud noises and fast movements can be scary right now, but with patience and love, Tonya starts to show her sweet and curious side. She’s never aggressive—just unsure—and what she needs most is a calm, understanding human who’s willing to go at her pace.
Her ideal home includes:
* A patient, gentle adopter who can help build her confidence
* A friendly, well-balanced dog companion to show her the ropes and keep her company
* A quieter home environment where she can feel safe and secure
Once she begins to trust, Tonya enjoys gentle affection, quiet companionship, and watching the world from a cozy spot nearby. She’s still learning how to “dog,” but every small step she takes is a victory worth celebrating.
If you're someone who finds joy in helping a scared pup feel safe, and you understand that the best bonds are built slowly, Tonya might just be your perfect match. She’s not the life of the party—but she just might be the heart of your home.
Apply to adopt Tonya and be her safe place to land.

More about this rescue

BARRK LI was created by Kristina Howley after many years of working with many wonderful groups in the animal rescue industry. Most recently my work with SNARR Animal Rescue Northeast has encouraged me to begin a new chapter of rescue focusing on the NYACC abandoned and "at risk" shelter dogs. While I will continue to help and support SNARR NE for the wonderful work they do, I am excited and hopeful to roll out BARRKLI to help even more dogs in the NY shelters and those in other area shelters of dire need. My initial goal is to build a small team of support for the local NYACC shelter dogs and eventually expand to help as many dogs as I can. One thing I have learned over the many years in rescue, is that the most successful rescuers have accepted that we can't save them all but the ones we do save we certainly can give our all too. My motto is and will continue to be "one dog at a time". And for that one dog, may his/her life be changed forever
