Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We got little Mabel on the 27th of July. She is 8 weeks of age and only 3 pounds 4 oz big. Upon arrival, we gave her a bath and she tolerated it very well, allowing me to completely soak her with little complaint! She handled the new environment very well and was willing to explore without fear. As soon as we got home she started playing with my large lab mix. She is good with both my tiny and large dog. She is great with little children and loves to snuggle in my five year olds arms! Her personality is gentle and loving. She loves to cuddle in your arms and stay by your side. This puppy is an angel, always bubbly and happy, and will make an amazing companion. Smart, playful, and energetic are just a few of her many amazing traits. She is a complete joy to have around the house and will brighten anybody’s day. She sleeps in her crate. When you want her to take a nap, you just have to lay her down and she will fall asleep in minutes! She eats and drinks well. She does her business outside while on a good schedule. She loves to give you puppy kisses and show her love. All in all, Mabel is a spectacular pup and will be a great addition to any family!
UPDATE: Mabel had been with us for a couple days now and she is adjusting very well. She eats very well. She doesn't really use the puppy pads ( only shakes them and runs around with them), but she goes outside every time i take her out. She loves being outside and doesn't want to be picked up or carried. She runs as fast as her little legs lets her just to keep up with my other dogs. If you pick her up she wiggles and grumbles until you put her down, so cute! She sleeps in her crate with her toy and had been doing better every night. Before bed we play and then she sleeps from 11:30 till 6:30. She cried a little the first night, but last night not at all! She is very playful and has no fear and loads of confidence. The cutest is how she thinks she can jump on the couch! She make a run for it and jump as high as she can, all 4 legs lifts of the ground and she doesn't even make it half way up. But she'll keep trying...

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. *****

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.
