Shelter Animal of the Week: Meet Miley

This friendly and playful pooch needs a good home - and some training.

Name: Miley

Case Number: #4312

Hi, my name is Miley.  I am an exuberant, friendly little gal who is staying at the in Wantagh until I find my forever home.

I make friends quickly with new people, even the most unusual of strangers, and love to be petted and massaged. I like playing with people and simply love toys! In fact, I enjoy toys so much that I sometimes guard them from people.

I'll need a patient, experienced adopter who can teach me how to share. Due to my resource guarding, I should be in a dog-experienced home with teenagers or adults. I'm comfortable with all types of handling and will readily share my resources with people.

I am very playful with other dogs and would enjoy their company immensely!I am a high-impact, high-energy player so I hope you'll find me appropriate playmates who will play like I do and won't take offense.

I know I should really learn some manners and impulse control when around other dogs, but atleast I do not guard my resources around them. I have already had some training (I know sit and stay for instance.) and am eager to learn more commands, especially if I'll be rewarded with one of my favorite treats!

I definitely need to learn to walk nicely on a leash and to not be so jumpy! So if you have the patience to train me and love me, I know I can be a great addition to your family. Please stop by the shelter to meet me.

To learn how you can adopt Miley, contact the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter at (516) 785-5220. Adoption hours are Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 4:45 p.m.

$20 million of the $40 million will be spent on adding a pocket track, presumably east ofRead More Massapequa. Currently, trains are reversed east of the Wantagh interlocking, and while the engineer walks through the train, it blocks the track. This addition of a "pocket track" will probably also help Wantagh commuters some times, just as an emergency pull-over space on the LIE helps.

True, true, I'm sure there's a political payoff/payback here somewhere.
