Review for Animal Care Centers of NYC, New York, NY, USA

Rating: 1 stars  

I help network on Twitter the dogs at this ACC who are put on the Kill List. I read the descriptions, the volunteer notes, the medical notes. I read dogs going in, getting checked out that they are healthy... then within days get pneumonia. Then when they get pneumonia, the ACC wants them out and puts them on the Kill List... saying they need rescue. leaving the medical care to whatever rescue can afford those bills and has an available foster. These poor dogs are set up to fail and ACC cares nothing about them. The volunteers try hard to get the dogs walked twice/day and leave notes. Many dogs come in social and willing to walk on a leash, and look for attention... but the place is a hellhole for dogs who get so stressed from all the barking, the kennel fights thru the bars, they become anxious. They may even cringe in the back of their cage trembling. These innocent dogs do not understand why they are there, why their family abandoned them, where are people they know. Some dogs try to make new friends. For others it is just excruciating... they are so afraid. Dogs like that are put on the Kill List. The ACC created this condition where dogs are so stressed. Again... the dogs are set up to fail. We networkers try so hard to give them exposure and pledges to help rescues, but some dogs are given only a couple days and the system is Not a care center... This is a high kill center that is cruel with no compassion for innocent animals who are there thru no fault of their own. The Health Dept needs to look into why so many dogs are getting pneumonia .... Right now they want to kill a 10 month old puppy named Meteor... please adopt this pup before he is killed
