    Let's meet ............
                              Joey

Hi!  My name is Joey and I am a neutered male adult Shepherd/Doberman mix who was bewildered and very much alone when found wandering on a street in Pelham. Luckily for me, a kind, good Samaritan brought me to the shelter with the hopes that either my owner would show up and claim me, or that I would be soon adopted. Well, to make a long story short, I guess it was an "out of sight... out of mind kind" of thing, because my owner never came and here I am waiting for the right someone to come along. My home is gone, my confidence is gone, and everything in my life that I grew up with is no longer mine. It took me a little while to get used to the surroundings here (quite different from my former home), but the staff and volunteers have done their best to make me feel comfortable and  happy once again. Did I say "happy"? Well, that will really only happen when my new owner takes me home. Here I sit, in my kennel, waiting and watching the people as they look inside my cage and then pass by. I want them to take me out, see how really sweet I am, and then make me part of their family. Do you think this will ever happen? I hope so. I have only one photo here to show you that I am a dog who is on the large size...not huge, mind you, but not a pocket puppy either. I am housetrained and have a very low key disposition. Please look deep into your heart and see if there is a small place for me there. I promise I will be loyal to you forever.
