My story

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

Joy is an adora-BULLY delight!
At just 2 years old, Joy is waddling through life on her stubby little legs and stealing hearts along the way! This supremely chunky 60lb queen ended up at the shelter after being found as a lost dog, but now she's ready to find a forever home that matches her sunny personality.

Joy's smile can light up a room, and her tail never stops wagging! We're still getting to know her, but so far, she's been non-reactive around other dogs, great with treats (super gentle!), and pretty good on leash.

Don't wait-come meet Joy at AHS Tinton Falls, NJ! She's ready to bring pure happiness into your home.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Individuals wishing to adopt an animal from our shelter must complete an adoption application and provide proof of home ownership or, if you are a renter, you must provide a copy of your lease or a notarized letter from your landlord stating pets are permitted. You must be at least 21 years of age to adopt any animal from our shelter. We reserve the right to refuse any adoption. In some instances, a home visit may be required. Our fees vary depending on the age and breed of the animal. Typically, a mix breed is $110.00 and a purebreed is $150.00 and up. There is also an altering charge of $85.00 for a male and $95.00 for a female. All animals receive vaccines, microchip identification, frontline treatments.

Go meet their pets

We are opened 7 days a week between the hours of 12:00-5:00pm for adoptions. No appt is necessary and we welcome prospective adopters to bring their current pet for a meet and greet with one of our orphans.
We hold offsite adoption events throughout the year. Please visit our Facebook page AHS-Newark Branch & our volunteer page, Friends of Associated Humane Newark Shelter.
