BoroughBreak Edition!
Queens Animal Care Center
1906 Flushing Ave, Ridgewood, NY 11385
BoroughBreaks pair shelter dogs with community members for a fun day out – and this Love At First Wag event is the perfect place to find your match. Up to 10 guests sit in our interaction room while large dogs choose their own playdate partners one by one. It’s a chance for the dogs to de-stress, show their true personalities outside the shelter, and maybe find their perfect match. Plus, it’s a great excuse for you to explore something new in NYC.
You do not need to be interested in adopting to attend this event as long as you’re excited to meet and entertain some dogs!
Our adoption events are on a first-come-first-served basis for adoptable animals. Our lines typically start 1 hour prior to the event’s start. See a full list of our upcoming events!
He’s been waiting for his forever home for over 270 days.
Casentino is the longest-staying dog at Queens ACC and a truly special boy who has already come so far. He was found as a stray and arrived overwhelmed and stressed, but with time and care, he has blossomed into a thoughtful, sensitive dog who now greets familiar faces with a wiggly body and wagging tail! He knows “sit,” loves treats, and is making big strides in confidence through the Shelter Scholars program. His adoption fee is sponsored, and Bushwick Bark has donated a goodie bag of treats and toys to welcome him home! Casentino will thrive in an adults-only home with a patient adopter who appreciates a dog who just needs a little time to shine.
Many of our New Hope Partners have been very open about their need to focus more on the emergency cases and pull those animals with the greatest needs. With ACC having so many animals in care, it is challenging for our partners to know which animals they should focus their efforts on.
