11/12/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Princess is all puppy: playful and energetic. At 8 months old, she finds herself looking for a home. (Couch potatoes need not apply). Princess would do best in an active home. She would love to be someone’s hiking or jogging buddy, and after running and playing, crawl up on your lap and be a snuggle buddy. If you’re looking for a new buddy, look no further… Come to Staten Island ACC and meet her.
