Story
My name is Scout! My mama is the most beautiful Penny Lane, who is also in the rescue. Our Dad- we are pretty convinced he had some Collie or Aussie in him and maybe some Lab. I am about 16 weeks and about 25 lbs. The expectation is for me to grow to be about 45 to 55 lbs. I am such a fun, sweet and thoughtful boy. I win over everyone I meet. I am a little shy at first but endearing and very treat motivated! I am great with other dogs and love to romp and play. I have that floppy puppy run down pat! I LOVE toys and chew antlers, and squeak the squeaky toys. I sleep through the night and go right in my crate without protest. I would do great with a person who would appreciate my intelligence and absolute devotion to my humans. Within a few hours of gentle pets and treats, I will be next to you on the couch. I absolutely love other dogs. I live with three big adult females and I think I am in heaven! I would do great with an older confident dog that would play with me and show me the ropes. I can keep up with those adults, no problem. I really enjoy my walks and walking through sprinklers doesn't bother me one bit. I also get a kick out of fetch. I have mastered some events with the rescue - puppy yoga and meet and greets and even a brewery! I am a perfectly well behaved little gentleman. I would love a family that can provide patience, activity and lots of positive reinforcement as I learn the way of the world! I am located in NJ!

Story
Little baby is a 4-month-old, collie/boxer mix. She is sweet and a bit shy but very receptive to loving and cuddling.  She will be spayed, is current on vaccines, too young for Heart worm testing but that will be done as part of the adoption process.  She is about 27 pounds and seems fine with other animals and people.  Not sure how well she walks on a leash yet but was told when surrendered she was housebroken and walked well on a leash.  She was given up because her family lost their home. She was loved. If you are interested, please fill out an online application at: https://www.barksinc.com/content/forms/jotform_dog_adoption.htmlJune 28, 2026, 1:16 pm

Story
Stella’s story started out rough, but this little lady has never stopped shining. She was found as a stray and brought into a local veterinary clinic, thin, scared, and in desperate need of medical care. The clinic staff took her in, treated her, and loved her like one of their own. For nearly two years, Stella was the “clinic girl,” healing, learning to trust, and charming everyone who walked through the door. In June, rescue stepped in to help her take the next step toward the life she truly deserves. Stella moved into a foster home, and she has been thriving. She lives with other dogs and gets along beautifully — gentle, friendly, and happy to be part of the pack. At about 3 years old and a perfect 37 pounds, Stella is the ideal size for just about any home. She’s past the puppy chaos but still young enough to enjoy adventures, playtime, and learning new things. One of her favorite things? Car rides. Stella will hop right in without hesitation and settle in like a seasoned traveler. Whether it’s a quick trip or a long drive, she’s your girl. Stella is ready for her forever family — someone who will appreciate her resilience, her sweetness, and her gentle spirit. After everything she’s been through, she deserves a home where she can finally relax, be loved, and just be a dog. If you’re looking for a loyal, easygoing, and loving companion, Stella is waiting for you. Stella is microchipped and current on her vaccines and her adoption fee is $415.

Story
MATILDA WAS LEFT AT A CHURCH… DON’T LET THAT BE THE END OF HER STORY 💔 🚨 Someone left her at a church door… and walked away. No name. No explanation. No one coming back. Now Matilda sits in a loud, scary shelter trying to make sense of it all… wondering why she was left behind. She’s about 6 years old and only 25 pounds—a tiny, gentle soul who never asked for any of this. And here’s the truth about her: ✨ Once she’s out of the kennel, she is soft, affectionate, and loving ✨ She just wants to be close to someone ✨ Quiet, docile, and incredibly sweet ✨ Dog that will bond deeply once she feels safe She’s nervous in the kennel… but that’s not who she is. That’s fear. That’s heartbreak. 💔 She is not broken—she is just scared and needs someone to show her she’s safe again. Dogs like Matilda don’t do well in shelters… and they don’t get much time. 🙏 PLEASE — Matilda needs a calm, loving home ASAP. Give her the second chance she never got. Because being abandoned shouldn’t be how her story ends. PLEASE TEXT KAREN 4136298152

Story
Riley, thought to be born in January or February of 2015 is a tricolor, smooth coat collie/border collie mix with some brindle markings on his legs. He has experienced 2 failed adoptions. He was adopted from us when he was about 6 months old and was returned to us 3 years later when the male member of the adoptive family, who had Alzheimer’s, became abusive toward him. In time he began developing his self-confidence again and began to lose his fear of men. Even though he was still somewhat leery of men he didn’t know, he would actually seek attention from men with whom he was familiar. He got along well with the dogs in his foster home but he behaved aggressively toward any new foster dog that periodically come in. He is not good with cats as he showed aggression toward the clinic cat at our vet’s office. Riley was adopted a second time, but after a year of trying different techniques to manage Riley’s difficult behaviors his second adopter felt that she could no longer handle him and once again Riley was returned to us. He left us weighing 55 pounds and returned, markedly overweight, at 78 pounds. He is now back to a healthy weight. Riley has had extensive training. He is quite smart and learns quickly. He rides well in a car and walks well on a leash unless he meets a dog while out on the walk, in which case he will pull and act aggressively. Riley is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, is heartworm negative and is being kept on heartworm and flea and tick prevention to maintain his good health. Riley is currently in Arkansas. His adoption donation is $415 which includes the $165 transport fee. If you would like to adopt Riley, the first step in the adoption process is to fill out an online adoption application. The first step in the adoption process is to fill out an online adoption application. You can find a copy of that application here.

After you submit your application, please allow a few days for a volunteer to review your application. During this time your vet reference will be checked and a volunteer with determine if it is the best match for you and the animal. Applications are not approved on a first come, first serve basis. We match up the best home for the animal, so even if the pet has other applications, this does not mean he/she will be adopted to that home. Once your application has been approved a volunteer with contact you to set up a phone interview. This is the perfect time for you to ask any questions you have about the adoption process and the animal you are interested in
