Meet Troll(tag # 1327), a young Bichon/Poodle mix. She has been with us since the end of August 2020. She is shy and timid, definitely in need of someone who is skilled in dealing with behavioral matters and who would be willing to invest in training. Troll needs time to bond with her new owner. She also wants attention from you on her terms, and she will let you know when she doesn't want to be bothered. Troll loves to go for walks and when she is outside running around she finds her playful side. She has the potential to bloom with the right person or couple who is willing to give her plenty of love, time, patience, and training. Troll needs to be the only dog in the home and no children. One of our volunteers spends time with her each week and she has shown great progress with her.

The Islip Animal Shelter is located on 210 S Denver Avenue in Bay Shore. The shelter is open Monday through Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. To learn more about the Islip Animal Shelter, visit their Facebook page here.
