Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This young 6 month old dog has just arrived on October 12th. She is a sweet, submissive girl who only weighs 23 pounds. The photos make her appear larger than she is. What a great looking dog! The markings are beautiful and the spot of pink on her nose just completes her look! Everyone says how beautiful this gal is. Although she started off a bit timid, she warmed up as she adjusted to our home. She is fostered with children and other dogs. She has no issues with other dogs. She does use the crate and is just fine with it too. She may need some basic training work but she sure just wants to please and will learn quick. Here is an additional video for you, copy and paste this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKmKbF1mwJk
Meeka is a great girl. During the week she has been in our home, she has not had one accident. She does not tell me she needs to go outside but on a good schedule we have had no issues. She gets along great with our dogs and has not yet met our cat. The children and the dogs get along fine as well. The issue with this girl is that she needs warm up time to new things. She has a timid and submissive side. Give her time and all is well. She is totally adjusted to our home, the people in our home, and our back yard. Time and attention will allow this girl to reach her full potential. She will be wonderful. The core of the dog is a good, friendly, sweet mix.
If you are interested in seeing additional photos, please friend Sheryl's Den on Facebook.

Be sure to list the dog's names that you are interested in on the first question within the application. Please be sure your application is complete.

This animal is currently fostered in a private home. Our rescue is 100% foster home based. We do not have a shelter or kennel. They are cared for by a loving family until adopted. Each pup has had their first vet exam, a shot, and de-worming, etc We make sure they have no fleas prior to going into our foster homes. They are fostered out of the shelter at least two weeks or more prior to adopting to monitor health. We take their care seriously! Please note that the adoption appointments will be scheduled after your application is approved. Once adopted, feel free to change the dog's name. You do not have to keep the name listed in this post.
#####PLEASE BE SURE YOUR APPLICATION IS COMPLETE OR IT WILL NOT BE PROCESSED. PLEASE BE SURE TO LIST THE NAME AND NUMBER OF THE VET'S OFFICE THAT CARED FOR YOUR PRIOR OR CURRENT PET. #####
IF YOU ADOPT a pup and live in the State of New Jersey we do have low cost spaying and neutering at very affordable prices. Kindly inquire upon an approved application. We also have an affordable program for out of state adopters.We also offer low cost micro-chipping! For a low fee of only 20.00 we will have your dog microchipped. You will be able to register the microchip for a low cost fee of only 10.99 at the time of the adoption appointment. The 10.99 fee is a ONE time registration fee. The microchip is for the lifetime of the dog. You have the ability to update the contact information at NO cost. You will also have a one year membership to Home Again. This is a big savings for you.
***** If you're interested in fostering we could always use the help to save more animals. A crate, food, and medical care are provided. The animals are picked up in West Milford, NJ and brought back here for adoption. The time commitment is two to two and a half weeks. Please email letting us know what town you live in and we will forward information to you. *****
Sheryl's Den has teamed up with Petfirst Health care in an effort to offer pet insurance for your adopted family member. If you wish, you can enroll once you adopt or within 20 days after your adoption. Your coverage will begin at midnight following your activation. The first month is only 5.00. If you choose to continue the pet insurance the cost would be 14.95 a month thereafter. Pet insurance protects you from the expense of vet care. No need to worry about unexpected expenses. Details: Use any veterinarian, pay your vet, send claim form to PetFirst, meet the 50.00 deductible, receive your reimbursement check in as little as two weeks. If you would like further information, you can contact PetFirst at 1-877-291-PETS.
