About gailey: Hello, my name is Gailey. My animal id is #248304. I am a male black dog at the Manhattan Animal Care Center. The shelter thinks I am about 3 years 1 months 1 weeks old.
I came into the shelter as a agency on 2/25/2026.
Gailey is at risk due to behavioral concerns. Gailey arrived at the Care Center with limited history via police. Gailey was reported to be growling at officers on scene and had to be sedated for transport to the shelter. Despite initially being fearful in the shelter, Gailey was noted to warm up to staff. In his handling assessment he approached staff readily and tolerated contact. Unfortunately, Gailey has become difficult handle safely due a decreasing threshold for arousal. Gailey has been leash biting with increasing intensity, and has recently been noted to snap at hands and treat pouches of staff members when attempting to remove him from kennel. Gailey is reported to walk better when given a toy to hold for walks, however at times Gailey has lost interest in toys offered. Medically, Gailey is noted to have a wound that is healing, and has dental disease.
