Cranford Cops: Help Find This Dog A Forever Home

CRANFORD, NJ - In Cranford, community policing continues to go to the dogs as the department is partnering with Friends of Linden Animal Shelter in an effort to find loving and forever homes for dogs in need.

According to authorities, they will be sponsoring a dog in need of a home each month.

This month, the dog being featured is named Attis and the Cranford Police have taken a statement from him which is included below:

"Hello everyone. I'm Attis!

As you can tell from my photo with this nice police man, I'm very handsome and debonair. I'm also VERY smart! I know all my commands. I know Sit, stay, down, heal, come, leave it, drop it, no and many others. I also know some fun tricks. I love to learn new things. If you’re willing to teach I’m willing to learn! I enjoy adventure! Going hiking or going to the beach makes me so happy. I love the water and I’m a great swimmer.

I’m a ROCKSTAR on the leash. I don’t pull at all. I can walk calmly by other dogs even though they make me a little nervous.
I love meeting people. I get so excited that my tail won’t stop moving.

I have met some smaller humans and other dogs and I feel a bit anxious around them and prefer to keep my distance.

The last few months have been a little rough for me because my family returned me to my rescue. That’s in the past and I don’t let that get me down. I have lots of folks who love me and who won’t ever give up on me. Between their efforts and my stunning good looks and amazing personality I have no doubt we will find me a home soon!!

I’m housebroken and I’m crate trained. To top it off, I’m also professionally trained!

Wow! If I could adopt me, I WOULD!

I’m the whole package here!"

Those who might be interested in becoming Attis' adventure buddy can contact the Friends of Linden Animal Shelter (FOLAS) at FOLAS.org and those with questions can email docizzy02@gmail.com.
