A stray Pit Bull mix named Lindsy was picked up by animal control officers in May 2016 while she was wandering the streets of New York.
As of today, more than two years later, the owners never came to pick Lindsy up from the shelter. Lindsy is now 8 years old, and dogs her age get less interest from people who are looking to adopt a pet from the shelter.
“It is heartbreaking seeing these dogs sit and wait and get old with us. It’s not fair and it’s not their fault they are here. She [Lindsy] is a wonderful, happy girl and there is no reason why she has waited so long” Lyndsey Grosjean, a volunteer at Babylon Animal Shelter, told
According to Grosjean, Lindsy is a happy, sweet and laid-back dog who loves to walk and play. She loves being around people and despite the fact that shelters aren’t ideal for dogs to stay in for years, Lindsy stays happy and upbeat.
Kristin Siarkowicz, an animal control officer at Babylon Animal Shelter, described Lindsy as a dog with great personality, and added that “Lindsy never has bad days. She is always tail wagging and ready for attention”. All that Lindsy needs and deserves is a chance to a forever home with a family who loves her.
