A volunteer writes: Merlin reminds me of a student the teacher never calls upon... frantically raising his hand to be heard.... Merlin stands on his two hinds in his kennel asking to be taken out, to go for a walk, to be in the company of a human....I can only imagine how lost and desperate he must have been, attached to the entrance of Metro North...Merlin is an amazing little dog. As soon as I opened his den's door, he hopped right into my arms. Such a tiny thing...13 year old ????? Merlin walks like a young man. He is a bouncy little Poodle. He "goes" as soon as we hit the street. He is friendly to passer bys who can not believe he is 13. He seems to like other dogs. I am amazed by the energy I see in Merlin and by his desire to "live life" as a youngster. Merlin is a great trooper. Thirteen is the new Five.... Merlin is at the
Manhattan Care Center waiting to start his new life with you.

DO NOT call and say you are adopting unless you truly intend on physically going to the shelter to adopt the dog. It ties up phones lines and is a waste of the staff's time to explain the adoption procedure over the phone for someone who is purposely not going to show up. They need every free second of their time to answer calls, assist actual adopters, process intakes, and care for the animals. More importantly, they will note the dog’s file that an adopter is en route which will prevent an actual adopter from saving the dog. This is considered a "fake adoption" hold and that is how dogs fall through the cracks and end up being killed.

DO NOT e-mail unless serious about adopting and ONLY if you are able to GO TO the shelter in-person. Please do not email for status updates... the only thing you will accomplish is spamming their in boxes and causing REAL adopter emails to go un-noticed.

For more information on adopting, please visit their website: urgentdeathrowdogs.org and click on “How You Can Help.” There are also helpful links with information on each main album description.
