Snickers is one of several mixed breeds who came to us from a local home who became overwhelmed with too many dogs... another important reminder of why spay/neuter is so important! In just a few years, 2 dogs and their offspring became 20+!!! The rest of his family members have been adopted, but as one of the most fearful Snickers is still waiting for his special person.
Snickers is a 2 ½ yr old mixed breed hound at under 45lbs full grown. Snickers was terrified and had never been out of the house/yard or on a leash before coming to us, but has come a long way trusting his special people. He loves other dogs and would benefit from a quieter patient adult home with a compatible more confident dog to learn from and follow. He gets easily spooked on walks by too many people, trucks, loud noises, etc and tries to run back to the safety of his kennel. The busy shelter environment is especially difficult on fearful dogs and he would love to get into a quiet adult home soon. He's had some issues with chronic ear infections on and off and panics being handled by the vets without sleepy meds, but has been doing better on a special hypoallergenic diet and not having as many flares, and is otherwise healthy.

More about this shelter
Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc. is founded on the belief that all animals have a natural right to humane treatment including proper care and safe shelter. Due to overpopulation, there are insufficient homes for most cats and dogs. Some are lucky enough to find temporary shelter and a few even find permanent homes. However it is a devastating fact that the majority are either euthanized or forced to chance life without shelter.
To support our belief and to relieve the unnecessary suffering of animals, we shall:
1.Extend every effort to find, evaluate, and secure good adoptive homes for animals in our care.
2.Provide animals with medical services and behavior therapy to the extent of our ability.
3.Adhere to a “no-kill” policy: animals shall not be euthanized for the purpose of providing space for new animals.
4.Adhere to a 100% spay and neuter policy.
5.Maintain continuing humane education programs and in particular to schools.
