My story

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

Meet Gordon! He is one of the dogs rescued by Petrescue from a difficult hoarding situation. Gordon is one of many dogs who were housed in too small an area and given no personal care. When he arrived at Petrescue and was examined, it became apparent that he would need surgery to repair a bladder anomaly, and 3 weeks later a hernia. This boy is AMAZING! He recovered quickly in his foster home… full of dogs, cats and people. Unsurprisingly, Gordon takes a little while meeting new people, but has become friendlier and is interacting more and more. He is out playing more with the other dogs,…running in the house and walking around more freely. He is learning to climb stairs and with a little coaching, is making progress. Gordon loves to hang out and sleep in his crate or at bedtime, in a dog bed in his foster’s bedroom, with 5 or 6 other dogs. When he decides it is bedtime, he will go in his crate and sleep quietly all night, and will use a wee wee pad. He is not a barker, but loves food and treats, and that is the only time you may hear him bark. He has learned a lot from living with other dogs, and when his foster mom says “who wants to go out?” he will go to the back door with the rest of the dogs. His foster mom says that Gordon is really a low maintenance dog. He likes other dogs and cats and has no food aggression. This little guy as been through so much, and has weathered it all. Now it’s time for Gordon to be showered with all the security and love he deserves, in his new loving forever home. He’s earned it! Be sure to complete an application on line and come to our Meet & Greet Saturday 11:30-1:30.
If you are interested in this dog, please submit an application directly to our website at www.ny-petrescue.org. Only applications submitted directly to Petrescue will be considered.
