Shelter Animal of the Week: Meet Andy

Name: Andy

Case Number: 5574

Hi, I'm Andy. I'm a 2-year-old male, terrier mix who is staying at the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter in Wantagh, waiting to find my forever home.

I was picked up as a stray and have been here since March 2010. I can be a little shy when I first meet new people, but after a few minutes of sniffing you, I'll warm right up! I also need a little training, but I love treats so as long as you have treats I'm ready to learn. 

I've already been altered, I'm up-to-date on all my routine shots and I'll be micro-chipped upon adoption. Please come down to the shelter and see me.

To learn how you can adopt Andy, contact the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter in Wantagh at (516) 785-5220. Adoption hours are Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. On Saturday, March 17, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., the shelter will host its inaugural “Lucky You, Lucky Me” Pet Adoption Event, during which all adoption fees will be waived.
