๐Ÿšจ THIS PATTERN MUST BE INVESTIGATED. There appears to be a deeply troubling pattern at this shelter involving large-breed dogs being given as little as 1โ€“8 days to find rescue or adoption before facing euthanasia. That is not a genuine chance at life.

๐Ÿšจ There are also serious concerns that some dogs may be quickly labeled โ€œaggressiveโ€ or โ€œsick,โ€ potentially accelerating their placement on the euthanasia list before they have a fair opportunity to be saved.

๐Ÿšจ THIS CANNOT BE IGNORED. These dogs deserve fair evaluations, transparency, and a meaningful chance to find safetyโ€”not a countdown to death. The public deserves answers, and this pattern demands accountability and a thorough investigation.

๐Ÿ“ฃ STOP ALLOWING THIS TO CONTINUE. SPEAK UP. BE THEIR VOICE. Our voices have power.

๐Ÿ‘‡ THE PROOF IS RIGHT HERE. ๐Ÿ‘‡

5 OUT OF 9 MASTIFFS ARE LISTED AS โ€œRESCUE ONLYโ€ โ€” LABELED AS SICK OR AGGRESSIVE.

Itโ€™s only a matter of time before the remaining dogs could also be labeled โ€œbehavioralโ€ or โ€œsick.โ€

And what happens nextโ“๏ธ

They can be scheduled for euthanasia within days.

Together, we can demand change. ๐Ÿซถ

๐Ÿพ Michael ID: #A850464 - FRIENDLY

Cane Corso โ€ข male โ€ข Tan

Approximately 2 years old.

Located in kennel D 09.

Arrived at the shelter on 8/24. Available 8/29

https://24Petconnect.com/DetailsMain/SBCO1/A850464

๐Ÿ†˜๏ธ Rescue only - ๐Ÿฉบ Medical ๐Ÿ†˜๏ธ HIS LEG MAY NEED TO BE AMPUTATED ๐Ÿ’”

Sweet Michael arrived at the shelter with lacerations to his head and neck. His right hind knee was severely swollen and has an open, draining wound. A third-party veterinarian evaluated him and reported a guarded prognosis; amputation may ultimately be necessary.

Despite everything he is going through, Michael remains bright, alert, and responsive. He is willingly eating and drinking, and his swelling has decreased. But he needs more than a shelter kennel to recover.

Michael needs a safe, quiet home where he can be closely monitored, receive the care he needs, and have the best possible chance at healing.

He has already endured enough. Please don't let his injuries be the reason he loses his life.

8/31/2026: Monica was jumping up as I was attempting to leash her up. Once leashed I walked her out and she began to jump up on me several times, so much that it was hard for me to use my treats to redirect her. Once I walked her to the run, I left and came back with another dog. Once I removed the dog near her to take it back for her kennel she began to high pitch bark and was jumping up on the fence trying to escape the run. Once I came back for her she was highly overaroused and constantly pawing on my arms scratching me up as I attempted to leash. She was pawing and scratching so hard she made my radio fall as well as my treat bag. I had to close the fence and retry to leash. Once I did she bolted out and started jumping up at my face. I had to use the leash to redirect her. Appears to be very stressed out. I placed her into a new kennel due to another ACT mentioning she was fighting with neighbor dog in her kennel. As soon as she was placed in she began to vocalize.

8/30/2026: High energy dog. Can be dog friendly, had another dog in the next run and they ran opposite to each other a couple of times. Likes treats.

8/30/2026: Monica was standing on hind legs looking over the edge of her kennel and fighting with the dog next to her. Was also very overaroused on leash jumping up nonstop without redirection. Later, when a volunteer took her out for a walk she reported the same overaroused behavior and Monica also scratched both of her arms, leaving red marks. She showed the ACT in the row and also came to the office.

8/30/2026: Ms. Monica will be standing and jumping at the kennel door, becomes vocal, dilated eyes. Makes it hard to get the leash on her since she jumping at the door when your trying to open it. Once leash she forward pull hard on the leash, will start to jump against your body, treats do not work when trying to get her to get down. She becomes vocal in the runs as well, barking, high pitch whiny. Bring her back she was the same, over arouse at the door when trying to leash her, still jumpy against the body, did stop as you get half way to the door.

8/25/2026: This dog greeted me at the kennel door with a loose wiggly body, soft eyes, soft wagging tail. Easily leashed and walked outside with a semi loose leash. Easily leashed and returned to kennel.

8/23/2026: This dog greeted me at the kennel door with a gently wagging tail. She let me leash her and walked loosely to and from the potty yard. Inside her kennel she can be seen relaxing on her blanket throughout the day.

8/21/2026: Timid but wagging tail during work up.

Itโ€™s the LAST CALL for (8-y/o) Rufferee, now under kill command!

The adorable American Staffordshire Terrier-mix was found in a park and brought into NYCACC in late-June.

He is listed due to high stress and toy-fixation behaviors in the shelter environment (details listed below).

Rufferee is social, cute, affectionate, excitable, energetic, and healthy!

The good boy earned the 2nd best behavior rating during his medical examโ€ฆ ๐Ÿฆด

Shelter Notes:

Rufferee is listed on the at-risk emergency list due to behavior concerns that arise from high stress and over-arousal inside the shelter environment.

While he is noted to be highly social, energetic, and affectionate with handlers during outdoor yard time, the confined space and noise of the facility have caused him severe anxiety.

The specific incidents and behavioral triggers that led to his at-risk status include:

Low Arousal Threshold: In the care center, he becomes easily overwhelmed. During one incident where he became highly over-excited trying to get into a toy storage bin, medical staff stepped in to check on and redirect him; he responded by lunging at their hand in an attempt to resource-guard.

Toy Fixation & Resource Guarding: Rufferee has an intense obsession with toys (like stuffies and tennis balls). He exhibits resource guarding behaviors in the shelter, including freezing, becoming tense, hovering over, and body-blocking his toys. This fixation also makes him very difficult to redirect on walks if he spots random toys.

Severe Shelter Anxiety: His official logs note that he shows clear physical signs of terror and confusion inside the building, such as trembling like a leaf. In one documented instance, he pulled himself into the supply area, tried to climb into a linen bin to hide, and then suffered an anxiety-induced collapse onto the floor out of sheer mental exhaustion and confusion.

Shelter Information:

Location: Queens, New York
Address: 1906 Flushing Ave, Ridgewood

๐ŸšจMILLY SCHEDULED FOR EUTHANASIA 9/2 AT 11AM FOR MEDICAL๐Ÿšจ

๐Ÿ’” MILLY HAS A HUGE MASS ON HER LEG & SHE NEEDS SOMEONE TO GIVE HER A CHANCE.

Milly is a sweet, calm girl facing euthanasia because she needs medical care the shelter cannot provide. She has a massive soft-tissue growth on her right shoulder that is roughly 25 cm across. X-rays showed no evidence of bone involvement, & chest imaging did not show signs of metastasis.

The mass is suspected to be a tumor & needs surgical removal, with a surgical consult already submitted. Cytology was inconclusive, so there are still unanswered questions about exactly what Milly is dealing with. She also has a small ulcerated mass near her right hock.

Milly is incredibly easygoing. โค๏ธ

She is calm, allows handling, enjoys being petted, & is easy to leash. On her recent outing, she loved getting outside to explore, walked nicely, & took treats gently. She isnโ€™t particularly interested in playing right now, but that is hardly surprising considering the enormous mass sheโ€™s carrying.

In playgroup, Milly mostly chose to relax in the shade & explore at her own pace. She tolerated other dogs approaching her without a problem, even when they were more playful, but preferred to keep to herself.

Milly needs someone willing to DO something for her. She needs surgery, diagnostics, recovery time, & a safe place where she can finally be comfortable.

This sweet girl has so much more life left. Please donโ€™t let a potentially treatable medical problem be the reason she dies.

Please share Milly everywhere!

๐Ÿพ Marty ID: #A5790158

Mastiff โ€ข Male โ€ข Brown brindle

Approximately 3 yrs old

https://animalcare.lacounty.gov/dacc-details/?animalId=A5790158

๐Ÿ“† Arrived at the shelter on 7/18

โœจ๏ธBehavior Summary: Marty displayed calm, neutral behavior throughout the yard, with soft eyes, a relaxed body, open pant, and neutral tail. When another dog attempted to initiate a fight, Marty appropriately disengaged and walked away. He peacefully coexisted with the other dogs without engaging in play.

With the handler, Marty was friendly and affectionate, approaching to solicit petting and leaning against the handler. He tolerated full-body handling, though he briefly tensed and side-eyed when his abdomen and legs were touched, indicating handling sensitivity in those areas. He quickly returned to the handler and solicited affection again.
