Adoptable Pet Of The Week: Shadow The Dog

Nothing will warm you up inside and out on a cold winter day like this than a sweet doggie buddy, and Shadow here would really fit the bill!

The two-year-old Doberman mix has been at Sean Casey Animal Rescue‘s Sunset Park shelter for a whole year, but the staff there insist you not be intimidated by his size (cats, apparently, sure aren’t).

“Shadow is not-to-secretly a favorite here at SCAR,” they write. “Staff members sneak him into the office to hang out and volunteers always request him to take for a walk…. He is a gentle giant and a big baby, who loves to play with people, dogs, toys…you name it!”

If you’d like to meet him, you can visit him at the shelter, located at 551 39th Street, between 5th and 6th Avenues (a quick trip on the subway to 36th St). For more info, call 347-599-1500.

And if you’re not up for adopting a dog at the moment, remember you can still walk one — they’re always looking for volunteers! Just stop by the shelter to get started.
