My story

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

Gerard, a Bichon Frise born 10/20/2004. His purpose in life is to bond with his master. Affectionate, adorable, smart and eminently trainable (always room for improvement), Gerard seeks a home where his relaxed sensibilities will fit right in.

Gerard has adjusted to the animals and people here but it took some work. He has some behaviors that do not make him an ideal first dog or very good with small children (under 16). We would be happy to discuss in detail but a person/family who has a solid understanding of this is necessary.

We really appreciate your wanting to give a shelter animal a home. The Humane Society of New York was founded in 1904. The Vladimir Horowitz/Wanda Toscanini Horowitz Adoption Center is a no-kill shelter. Our on-site clinic and staff of skilled Veterinarians looks after the health and well-being of every animal here. We offer FREE Vet care for the first 3 weeks after adoption. We also have a great adoption matchmaker who will gladly take your profile and match you or your pet with just the right cat or dog companion. Please feel free to submit your application!

If you'd like to sponsor this pet, please email sandra.hsny@verizon.net. You can give as much or as little as you like. Your donation is tax deductible. Thank you!
