Islip Shelter Animals of the Week

The shelter now has a lot more girl power thanks to their latest canine additions.

The Town of Islip Animal Shelter is home to many lovable dogs, cats, puppies and kittens that are desperately looking to join the right family.  The shelter takes great pride in providing a clean and caring environment for all of their pets.

Meet amazing Mazzie. She is an adult Labrador-retriever/American Staffordshire terrier mixed breed.

This girl's fur may be black and white but her personality is colorful. The Islip Animal Shelter says Mazzie is intelligent and this mutt is always up for learning. She has a sensitive side too and is always game for curling up on the couch.

Mazzie doesn't need to be kept on too tight of a leash. Where you lead, she will follow as the shelter says Mazzie is up for just about anything you are doing.

A great addition to any family, Mazzie's Pet ID Tag Number is 3706. She is neutered and up-to-date on all of her routine shots and vaccinations.

Greetings from Greta. This girl is a Rottweiler mix and she is neutered and up-to-date on all of her shots.

Not only is Greta a beautiful mix but she has brains too. The shelter says she is highly intelligent and this puppy is happiest when she is at play.

Although Greta is affectionate towards people, she does not enjoy the company of other canines. The shelter feels Greta would do best in a home without any other dogs or with either another rottie or rottie-type mutt in the mix.

The shelter invites you to come in and meet Greta. Her Pet ID Tag Number is 400.
