My story

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

After over a year in the shelter Gilmore is more than ready for a home of his own. At 4 years old, this high-energy, big-hearted boy is bursting with love, personality, and tail-wagging enthusiasm.

Gilmore lives for playtime, especially when his trusty tug toy is involved. He's a social butterfly with other dogs and would thrive in a home with a playful canine companion. After romping around, he's happy to crash for cuddles and soak up all the one-on-one affection he's missed out on for far too long.

Gilmore needs an adult-only home where his energy and zest for life can be matched and appreciated. He's not meant to grow up in a kennel-he deserves space, fun, and love.

More about this shelter

The Associated Humane Societies rescues stray and homeless animals, both domestic and wildlife, providing quality care and sanctuary until loving homes can be found. As a community-based organization, we provide low-cost veterinary care and humane education to promote responsible pet guardianship throughout New Jersey.

For over a century we have offered a haven to abused and neglected animals. Founded in 1906, AHS is the largest animal sheltering system in New Jersey, operating three shelters located in Newark, Forked River, and Tinton Falls. Our Forked River facility also includes Popcorn Park. Established in 1977, Popcorn Park is a sanctuary for abandoned, injured, ill, exploited, abused or elderly wildlife, exotic and farm animals, and birds.

The Society is a not for profit, 501(c)3 organization and we take pride in our devotion to the thousands of animals that come through our doors looking for a better life.
