My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dexter | White Shepherd
4 years | Neutered | 50-55 lbs | Housebroken

Dexter's owners lost their home and had to move into an apartment where pets were not allowed. He's missing his family but is still very sweet. He gets along with other dogs but is an alpha male; he is housebroken. Currently in foster in Mississippi in a country setting with other dogs. Dexter is up to date with his shots, and neutered. He is being treated for heartworm but is otherwise a healthy 4-year old. He walks well on leash. Dexter will need access to a yard or fenced in area.

Go meet their pets

Our rescued animals are placed in foster homes in the New York and Northern New Jersey areas. Our animals are also boarded in veterinary hospitals in the South until we can transport them to our NJ locations. We also have rescue partners in Canada.

More about this rescue

Paws on the Green, Inc. rescues animals on death row in local and rural shelters in the South. We are a New Jersey non-profit animal welfare organization that promotes the adoption of homeless animals regardless of age, breed or health condition. We strive to take the ones that other rescues and adopters leave behind either because the pet is a senior, has a health condition or has a disability.

If you would like to foster one of our animals, please visit our website and click "How You Can Help". The foster application can be found there.
