Story
Our pretty gal, Hammie, is a two time visitor to our Rescue. Initially, she came to us in 2018 after the family toddlers had frayed her last nerve. When our NYCACC Shelter contacts diverted Hammie to us, we welcomed her heartily! Not all dogs enjoy frantic kid affection, so we placed Hammie with an active senior and the match seemed ideal. When unforeseen health issues required Hammie’s adopter to move in with family, the kid issue again came into play.  At the age of 8, Hammie is ready for her third act in an active adult home where she can unwind and be herself. Hammie is a genial, energetic dog, who loves to play and, despite her age, holds her own in a puppy playgroup. She could easily thrive in an active adult home with other playful dogs. She has blended into our crazy quilt, multi-dog foster home easily.  It seems to us that Hammie is a comical Terrier mix, most likely Border Terrier and perhaps Standard Dachshund. She has a stout physique, slightly elongated spine and half mast, goofy ears that can’t decide which way is up. She is a sturdy girl at just 21 pounds, and has fantastic presence for a small dog. Hammie has good house manners and is house trained and crate trained. Adopters should expect to troubleshoot the occasional accident that will inevitably occur during her transition to a new home. She is in optimal health and has been spayed. She has received routine vaccinations and health screenings. If you are interested in Hammie, please write to Denise at Angelsfrgod@aol.com or call/text Denise at 860-908-9738 for more info.
