This week's dogs are up for adoption at the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter. The shelter is located at 3320 Beltagh Ave. in Wantagh. Their phone number is (516) 785-5220.

Maggie is about 2 years old, and was found as a stray and brought to the shelter for safety. Maggie is playful and friendly with other dogs. Her most endearing feature is adorable cross eyes.

Petunia, a beautiful 2-year-old girl, came to the shelter as a stray in February 2018. She was found loose on the street, and ran into a local deli. This little cutie is friendly with other dogs, playful with toys, and friendly with people.

Theodore is 7 years old. He's been at the shelter on and off since he first came into the shelter as a stray in Sept. 2014. Unfortunately, his last owner, who is in the military, was being deployed and Theodore was once again made homeless. Theo knows many commands including "sit", "watch me", "down" and "stay." He is also house trained and crate trained. He also loves going for car rides. He is looking for a dog-savvy home with adults only.
