ASPCA Pet of the Week: This Little Light

dog

Okay, people, we have a bone to pick with you. One of the greatest pooches ever has been at our Adoption Center for far too long. Her name is ava, and if you’re a loyal reader, you know all about her. She’s the best! We’re flabbergasted that this ball of blubbery love hasn’t been adopted yet, but perhaps you, good reader, are the one true love for whom she’s been patiently waiting.

Ava needs special support because she was born deaf, but potential adopters shouldn’t be put off by her hearing impairment. She’s adapted by learning hand signals, and knows how to sit, lay down, shake, roll over and more! If you’re interested in adopting this smart sweetie, please call our Animal Placement department at (212) 876-7700, ext. 4120. Or to view other animals looking for homes, visit our adoption center online.

****Got Facebook? Won’t you please donate your status to ava today? Just copy and paste the following message onto your profile status to help spread the word that this pooch needs a home!

[Name] is donating my status to Ava http://www.aspca.org/ava, a dog at the ASPCA who needs a new home.
