My story

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

Meet the aptly named Dozer... not because he's a bulldozer, but because he's very good at dozing off and napping through anything. This sweet 14 year old hound man is a gentle old soul who doesn't ask for much more than a soft bed for his naps, some head scratches and regular meals. His elderly owners could no longer care for him and he has come to us to find a retirement home to live out his life. He's become the unofficial front office mascot, and greets everyone human and dog alike with a happily wagging tail before going back to bed. He's on medication for arthritis and should lose a few pounds to help his mobility... walks with a slow but steady gait and enjoys being a hound dog, reminding you to stop and smell the flowers (and the bushes, and the fire hydrants) on his leisurely walks. He looks like a giant oversized beagle, about 60lbs. Please submit an application if you would like to open you home to this sweet old man for the rest of his life

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.
