AJ is a very sweet 8 year old Puggle with a lot of love to give. He came in very overweight but has been doing well on his diet and with daily walks has lost 8 lbs since arriving here at the shelter. At home his diet and walks will need to be continued so he can reach a normal weight. Although he really loves to eat, AJ has shown no aggression with food or special treats. He has tested well with other dogs and cats through the cage so far. He loves people and would make the perfect companion to sit and relax with. Come down and meet him today!

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.
