My story

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


Ralphie was rescued from a kill shelter in New York City. He was dropped off at Animal Care Centers of NY on Nov 24, 2023. Happy Go Lucky Mastiff Rescue (located in Maryland) sponsored a foster in Albany, NY to get him out of the shelter in early December. The foster caregiver had to relocate, so I picked Ralphie up in Albany, NY on May 1, 2024 and brought him to Ohio. Ralphie is microchipped, but his name was not available, so we used his shelter ID (RAL188002) and after referring to him as Ral so often, I suggested we just call him Ralphie. Ralphie was neutered in April before I picked him up and he received all shots required in New York. He has all shots required for Ohio. Ralphie is reactive to other dogs and pulls very hard whenever he is on a leash. Ralphie is young and energetic and often gets the zoomies. I am unable to work with Ralphie to fix his behavior issues, but he really is a good boy!
