DASHER
Dasher is about 4 years old and weighs 60 pounds. He is such a handsome, playful boy that loves people and dogs alike. He would be happy to be your only dog, and he does great being left home alone for extended periods of time. He does best with other playful dogs as he is too playful for older or mellow dogs.
He is fully house broken and potty trained and would make a great instant house hippo. Dash does not realize his head is half his body weight and will always ensure his head lays on your lap whenever you are lounging on the couch. He is an expert cuddler and thinks he is a two-pound yorkie as he considers himself a lap dog.
Dash has no resource guarding of any kind and has a happy golden retriever energy about him. He is happy lounging all day with you or going for a vigorous hike. He matches your energy and speed. He is an easy walker and loves giving everyone kisses. Dash is food motivated and would love a family that can continue to work with him on his basic commands (at this time he knows sit, paw, and once in awhile stay lol). He would do well with a family that has older children or no children, as Dash once again is unaware of his size.
He is dog friendly, and he of course would love furry playmate, but does not require one. Apply today!
MICKEY
Mickey is currently 7 weeks old and is as cute as can be!! We aren’t sure what he is mixed with, but mom is small and we’re assuming that dad was also on the smaller side as well.
We have NO idea how big he will or will not grow to be, all we know is he is super cute and full of personality! When he is 8 weeks old, he will be ready to meet his forever family.
Adopters must be willing to either travel to our vet in Union NJ (where we pay) or to their own vet (where the adopter pays) for the remaining vaccine appts as well as his neuter at 6 months of age.

MOCHA
Do you remember Taz and Honey (“mom and dad”)? We received a text asking if we’d be able to help with another dog related to them, Mocha. Mocha is Honey’s sister. She was living with someone related to Taz and Honey’s owners and they could no longer keep her. Like Honey, she was also bred.. with Taz… and it turns out she gave birth around the same time that Honey did. All of her puppies were sold.
While she is in decent shape physically, she is just as terrified and scared as Honey and Taz were. She is currently in a short term emergency foster home, but she desperately needs a longterm foster or adopter with a calm, balanced dog to help bring out her confidence. She is only 1 and she deserves a chance.
We are looking to move her as soon as possible to an adult only home or a home with calm and patient children, as she has lived with kids before- preferably just adult women as she is still quite fearful of men. An absolute must have is a confident and friendly adult dog. No puppies. Bonus, she is also cat “indifferent” and will completely ignore them.
We can tell Mocha just wants to be loved. She’s shown us little glimpses of her incredibly sweet nature and we can’t wait to get her comfortable enough to really come out of her shell.
FIFTY
Fifty joined us from one of our local shelter partners. He is settling in well to his foster home and he is truly the best dog EVER!
Fifty is about 3 years old and weighs about 50 pounds. He is housebroken and crate trained and walks well on leash.
He lived with children and other dogs (big and small) in his previous home. He enjoys going for walks and playing with his toys and would make a great family dog.

MINNIE
Two weeks ago, we saw a desperate plea from one of our shelter partners asking for help Minnie and her two babies. The shelter is no place for a mama and her pups. Thankfully, one of our fosters had recently expressed interest in fostering a mama and pups. Because of her willingness to try something new, we were able to say yes!
Mama Minnie is about 2 years old. She is a short and stocky little low rider, weighing only about 35 pounds herself. Minnie has been an AMAZING mom to her two little babies. She also gets along great with people, other dogs, and loves children. She is easy going, silly, goofy and loving. All around she is an amazing dog, and any family will be so lucky to adopt her.
Please apply today to add beautiful Minnie to your family!
PIPPY
Almost 2 weeks ago we took in this 6-month-old girl.. an emaciated stray in need of immediate medical attention (and a name).
Thanks to her dedicated foster, “Skinny Pippy” has made incredible progress over the last 12 days. This once nervous little girl who was nothing more than skin and bones, is now a confident puppy who is eager to learn. She’s steadily putting on weight, has mastered housebreaking, and is quickly learning basic manners and commands.
She still has some more weight to gain before she can be spayed but is otherwise more than ready for the next step in her journey. She even did her first ever zoomies today!!!
We are looking for an adopter or foster-to-adopt home for Pippy. A home with older kids and a friendly, confident adult dog would be ideal.

ISLA
Isla was recently surrendered to a local pound due to landlord issues. She is a big 6-month-old puppy. She loves to run around and play, fetch her toy, play tug of war, and get chased. She also doesn’t mind laying on the couch with you, although she thinks she’s a lap dog at 45 lbs.
She absolutely loves other dogs, but they need to be able to keep up with (or tolerate) her energy level. She’s super sweet and loves giving kisses. She’s good with kids but still a puppy learning how to play so older kids would be better.
She was kept inside most of her life hiding from a landlord, so she is a little timid at first. She warms up VERY quickly, she just needs someone to introduce her to the world.
To adopt, please apply today!

SIMON
Our adorable micro-Boston Terrier is finally ready to find a forever home and family of his own.
Simon is the absolute sweetest little guy who has overcome so much in his short life already. He was found abandoned outside of our local inner-city pound in the cold at just 8 weeks old!
Now at about 10 months old he is ready to leave his incredible fosters home and go into forever homes of his own. Simon is crate trained and love all people and other dogs. He is mostly housebroken but does use wee-wee pads if left alone for long hrs. at a time.
Simon does have some special needs and is looking for a home that is able to continue his care. He has a cleft palate and needs to be monitored while eating and also drink from a water bottle (like a rabbit) so he does not aspirate.
