Our favorite little dog Doug needs a temp foster for about 2 weeks.
Doug was adopted by a wonderful family the shelter has know for many years, but they do have a travel obligation they need to fufill.
We are hoping to see if anyone can watch Doug starting this weekend until the end of the month when they return.
He is a wonderful, easy going dog who doesn't need much. He is slatted to start his heartworm treatment next month. He does fine with other dogs and cats.
If you can help foster Doug for a short period of time please email the ACC at info@stjacc.org or PM our Facebook page for more information.
I am so curious if this is Teddys brother!?

This very sweet pup is in need of an escort to JFK!
If you are traveling to JFK and are willing to escort this very friendly 12 week old pup please email us at info@stjacc.org or PM our Facebook page for more information on the process.
Puppies travel in a soft sided carriers under the seat. There is no cost to you and the ACC provides everything needed to travel.
I’m sure he misses his brothers and sisters 😥
We will be returning to JFK on August 7 Would love to help bring a pup back to New York
Messaged you!
Omgggg gimme
We are thrilled to share that our sweet Ella, who flew to New York in May to join one of our partner shelters, was adopted this past weekend!
As a volunteer favorite, we couldn't be happier for her. We hope she continues to share her famous "Ella Hugs" with her new family and friends.
Congratulations to her adopters, and a heartfelt thank you to everyone who spent time with her during her stay at the ACC. We also want to extend our gratitude to our wonderful partners at Badass Animal Rescue for taking her into their care and helping her find a home.
Ella is such a sweetie! Congratulations Ella!
