Story

Mocha, Basenji mix, Red, Female spayed, 1year old Mocha is a very sweet and loving girl. She enjoys playing with toys and getting lots of attention! She is still young and would benefit from additional training, and would do best in a home without children, as they may be too much for her. Mocha can be selective with her doggy companions, but does seem afraid of cats. **This dog is at the Ocean County Animal Facility North located at 615 Fremont Ave, Jackson NJ (off of Hope Chapel Rd). All dogs are spayed/neutered, micro-chipped, and have age appropriate shots.** To adopt our dogs you must come to the facility with your entire family, including dogs, to meet with our staff and the dog you are interested in.

Toby-Courtesy Listing

Basenji

Male, 6 yrs 4 mos

Harrison, NY

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

This is a Courtesy Listing and has no affiliation with Petrescue. Please contact the owner listed below directly. Toby is a 6-year-old neutered Basenji who is up to date on all vaccinations and looking for a special home that understands his needs and will give him the love and stability he deserves. He is completely house-trained and spends much of his day happily curled up in his cozy bed, catching up on naps. While he enjoys relaxing indoors, he also needs an active home where he can get regular exercise. He loves running around the backyard on a long lead, playing fetch, and during the winter, you'll find him leaping into the air to catch snowballs—his absolute favorite game! Toby cannot be off-leash and should always be in a securely managed environment. He is also afraid of water and does not enjoy baths. Around the people he knows and trusts, Toby is a sweet, affectionate cuddle bug. He loves curling up in laps, giving kisses, and spending quality time with his family. Having a safe space of his own is very important to him. His crate, complete with a soft bed, serves as his cozy retreat where he feels secure and comfortable. Toby warms up to new people fairly quickly when introductions are calm and positive, especially if they come bearing some of his favorite treats! Cheese, peanut butter, bananas, and just about any kind of meat are sure ways to win him over. He also enjoys chewing on bully sticks and stuffed Kongs. Because of his behavioral needs, Toby requires an experienced and understanding home. He has fear-based aggression, food aggression, and guarding behaviors that will need continued management and respect for his boundaries. He would do best as the only pet in the home, as he is not compatible with other dogs or cats. Toby does well with respectful children ages 8 and older. His ideal home is one that is patient, calm, active, and committed to helping him feel safe and secure. In return, he will reward his trusted people with loyalty, affection, cuddles, and plenty of personality. More than anything, we want to find Toby a loving, cage-free home where he can continue to thrive and enjoy the happy life he deserves. If you are interested in this dog, please contact sarah.winans@guilderlandschools.net

Story

This handsome boy named Fievel is only around 9 months old and weighs 50 pounds. He showed up on someone's porch starved and would not leave. The couple would not feed him -even when he came to them, trying to get them to pet him, they ignored poor Fievel. Finally, they called the local animal control saying they wanted them to come and get him off their porch immediately. Fievel was brought back to the animal shelter but since he was such a sweet boy, they did not euthanize him and called a rescue instead. Fievel is now neutered and fully vetted but is missing the one thing in life that he wants the most, and that is a family. Can you be the one to give Fievel his biggest hope and wish?? Fievel is up to date on vaccines and preventatives - he is in "move in" condition. His adoption fee is $415. Please fill out an application at ehrdogs.org and give this happy boy the wonderful home he deserves. He can't wait to be part of your family!
