Swan
Hi! My name is Swan. I’m an incredibly sweet, loyal and laid back nugget. My fosters thinks I am a 4-year-old Jack Russell, Dachshund and Chi mix. I absolutely love to cuddle, be held and lay in your lap - which works out well because I’m only 14-pounds! My foster mom says I’m one of the chillest dogs she’s ever met - I even fell asleep the first time I took the subway because I’m not skittish towards NYC sounds or people. All I need in life is to hang out with my owner, find a good place to nap, and get a ton of pets and love. My chill demeanor means you can take me anywhere - I sit on my foster moms lap at restaurants and don’t try to grab food from her plate (despite my deep love for treats) and I go with her to work and snooze off in meetings. I’d be happiest with a person or couple that makes me a part of the family - letting me tag along on errands and spending plenty of time with me! Although I’m OK in my crate when I’m home alone, I much prefer company. I’m smart and highly trainable - there’s nothing more I love than being told I’m a good girl with a treat! Although I’ve had mistakes in the house I’m getting the hang of going outside consistently. I ignore other dogs on the street because they scare me and I am very submissive but not aggressive. I'm respectful towards / ignore cats. I’m OK with kids petting and holding me as long as they don’t sneak up on me. I can’t wait to find my forever home - I’m perfect for an apartment! To learn more about me, you can also check me out on my Instagram @adopt_the_foster This animal is currently being fostered in Brooklyn and may require that potential adopters go there in order to do a meet and greet or adopt. My adoption fee is $425. SWAN will be at Petco, 860 Broadway, Manhattan, in the North Shore Animal League Mobile Adoption Center on Sunday, April 28 from noon to 3 p.m. If you're interested in adopting Swan, apply online at louieslegacy.org/wp/adopt/. Available animals in attendance will be accepting applications to go home same day.

Please note that we cannot guarantee that any animal will be available for adoption when you arrive. (courtesy/Louie's Legacy)
