Brookhaven Adoptable Pet Of The Week: Ido

BROOKHAVEN, NY - If you're looking for a new companion, consider starting your search at a local animal shelter like the Brookhaven Animal Shelter. Despite the coronavirus pandemic, many pets are still looking for their forever homes and shelters are still working to fulfill adoptions.

One of their available pets is Ido, a 3 to 4-year-old male mixed breed.

Here's a full description of Hope from the Brookhaven Animal Shelter page:

Meet Ido! He was picked up stray by a Good Samaritan and brought to the shelter. Sadly, no one came in looking for him and he is confused as to why he is homeless, has no family and is currently living in a shelter. He is a playful, energetic guy who adores everyone he meets. He absolutely loves toys, especially stuffies but he gets vocal and doesn't want to give them up when playing with them. He loves to get pets and will back himself right up to you to give you the maximum petting advantage. He will do best in a home with kids over 14 years old. He was uninterested in the cats and gets along with dogs that are calm and respectful and would not be interested in his toys. Could you be his person? He is about 18 pounds, estimated to be 3-4 years young, up to date on vaccinations, neutered, micro-chipped, heartworm negative and currently looking for his hero.
