My story

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

He may be called Teddy, but he’s no plushie!

Four-year-old Akita Teddy is a sweet, handsome boy who gets along wonderfully with both dogs and cats! He’s social with the ladies, and while he can be a bit unsure around men at first, he warms up with patience and kindness. True to his Akita roots, Teddy’s protective instincts run deep — he loves hard and wants nothing more than for his family to feel safe and happy.

Teddy is house-trained, neutered, and ready to find his forever home! Because Akitas are a nuanced breed with unique traits and needs, we’d love to see Teddy with a family experienced in the breed and ready to appreciate all the special things that make him who he is.

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.
