My story

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

My #BoroughBreak Buddy Writes: Bobbie is a great dog. He did well in the car, walking through streets, being indoors and interacting with all people. He knows to sit on command, is very well behaved and loves affection. He is very curious and likes to explore new places. He loves treats and will start drooling. We didn't see any signs of resource guarding or dog reactivity.

What my friends at ACC say about me:


My history is a mystery and my friends here do not know much about me yet!


Not only do I pull at heart strings, but I also pull on leash! I will need someone to help me with my leash manners.


I don't always like to share my food, toys or bedding with other animals.


I would do best in a home with only adult humans.


I love to be loved, but on my own terms! Let's brush up on some canine body language together!



A volunteer writes: Imagine finding this wildly handsome face in an abandoned home! That's how Bobbie was found before being brought to the shelter. While we don't know his past, his recent history is stressful to say the least. But Bobbie is making the best of a bad hand. He steps closer and closer to us, leaning his body in, and swinging his head back as if to make sure we see him. Like we could ever miss that big, smiling noggin! Bobbie clocks in at a cool 82lbs, which some might say is the ideal size.

It's been 4 long months since Bobbie was found in that home, and so far he hasn't caught anyone's eye. The stress of shelter life is naturally getting to him. The behavior team takes him out for enrichment sessions, where he's able to sniff and engage naturally outside his kennel, and they note he visibly relaxes after these sessions. But in a busy shelter those times are far and few between. Bobbie needs a real home to enrich his life and love him every day. He's waiting at Queens ACC.
