SAFE 04/12/15 – BROOKIE – A1031535 – BROOKLYN, NY
Safe 4-12-2015 Brooklyn
ALONE AND MISUNDERSTOOD. Brookie was surrendered to the shelter because owner stated that pets did not get along, however that does not seem to be the case with Brookie….or at least it seems that she was not the one at fault. Perhaps her owners did not want to do the work to help her be the best dog she could be or perhaps they just did not know how because Brookie has behaved perfectly while at the shelter. She has shown no signs of aggression, is very sweet and volunteers love her. Brookie is still quite young and trainable. All she needs is someone to see her value and give her a chance. Now her time at the shelter is coming to an end. She has been placed on tomorrow’s list and will be killed at noon unless someone steps up for her tonight. Even if you are not able to adopt, you can still be her advocate. Brookie needs all of our help tonight. tomorrow will be too late.
