A dog named Lindsy approached the door of a shelter, perhaps hoping to stay a short time until her family reclaimed her. However, fate had another plan. Instead of a quick reunion like a case of “lost and found,” Lindsy, a Pittie, embarks on the longest, most grueling journey of her life. In 2016, Lindsy was picked up by animal control as a lost dog and taken to the Babylon Animal Shelter in New York. At that time, she was six years old and had been living with the same family for many years. Kristin Siarkowicz, an employee at the shelter recalls that a few weeks after her arrival, a child in her family called the shelter, asking for Lindsy but mentioning that she needed to check with her father about finding her. back to you.
Unfortunately, days, weeks, months passed without the family receiving any further news. They never returned nor called back to explain their absence. It was clear that Lindsy had been abandoned, but the shelter staff remained hopeful. Lindsy is an amazing dog with a loving personality and they are confident she will find a new home quickly. Lindsy is exceptionally friendly, gentle and affectionate – the perfect companion.
The shelter staff described her above Facebook: “Lindsy wants to be with you, she wants to be where you are, and she wants to participate in what you’re doing. Lindsy will be a great forever friend for those who want to take leisurely walks and have a friend to watch TV with. Lindsy is a low-maintenance dog, and she really wanted a new place to call home.”
Despite her qualities, no candidates or potential adopters were interested in Lindsy. It’s unclear whether the breed’s reputation or her advanced age will deter adopters. As the days passed, Lindsy continued to wait in her crib, never losing hope. Then, in March 2019, nearly three years later, her moment finally came.
“It finally happened….. Lindsy has left the building,” the shelter announced above Facebook. While she did not go directly to a permanent home, Noel’s Dream Bully Rescue Team from Waltham, Massachusetts did come to assist. They welcomed her into their program, where she became one of the longest-tenured residents to transition from shelter life back to a home environment—a transition she managed with distinction. sharp. The rescue group eventually found Lindsy an adoptive home with a wonderful family.
Ultimately, Lindsy settled into her forever home, where her happy, tail-wagging spirit flourished despite her high-class status. In December 2019, BAS shared a photo of Lindsy napping under a cozy blanket on Christmas morning. “Who remembers Lindsy? We got this great photo of Lindsy on Christmas morning. What a life,” they posted. Her journey was long, but in the end, Lindsy found the loving home she was destined for, surrounded by people who appreciate her for who she is.
