Every Friday Huffington Post New York features city animals up for adoption, in partnership with Animal Care Control of New York City.
A nonprofit organization, ACC gives shelter to more than 30,000 dogs, cats, rabbits and other animals each year.
Interested in a new pet? ACC has adoption centers in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Staten Island, all open daily from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m.
All ACC adoptions include vaccinations, a microchip, spay/neuter, one month of free pet health insurance and a free office visit at a participating veterinarian.
For more information on adopting, go here, or call (212) 788-4000.
Also! October is “Adopt-a-Dog Month.” Dogs that are at least 40 pounds will be only $40 this month. Normally dogs of that size cost anywhere from $75-$125.
