NYC animal shelter, Moxy hotel put on adorable dog adoption event
Animal Haven and Moxy East Village celebrated National Dog Day with adoptable puppies and Hebrew National hot dogs.
A dog named Pebbles is looking for her forever home after her owner surrendered her to a shelter.
Seven-year-old Pebbles, an American Staffordshire terrier mix, was surrendered in September 2020 to Best Friends Animal Society's Los Angeles Pet Adoption Center.
She's still looking for a loving home.

Pebbles is considered a fun and sweet dog who loves to play with her toys.
Pebbles also reportedly enjoys attention from humans — whether it's going on walks or running around the yard together.

Pebbles is food motivated and enjoys treats during her training, the shelter said.
Pebbles needs to be in a home with no other dogs, as she does not do well around other canines, the shelter also said.

She is muzzle-trained and walks well on a leash.
More than anything, Pebbles is a big cuddlier, according to the shelter — so much so that she is a nominee for the Best Friends Adoptable Pet Award category, "Best Leading Cuddler."
