Story
Meet Delilah &Limbo! Some dogs find comfort in a favorite blanket. Delilah and Limbo find comfort in each other. These 10-year-old Dachshund littermates (turning 11 on August 24th) have spent their entire lives side by side. Rescued together from a home with more than 60 dogs, they've faced every change, every new experience, and every fresh start as a team. And honestly? They wouldn't have it any other way. When it's time for bed, you'll find them curled up together, often sharing the same bed without a care in the world. When it's time to eat, they're happy to share space and enjoy every bite, making up for years of uncertainty. When something new happens, they look to each other for reassurance. They are the perfect yin and yang. Delilah is the social butterfly of the duo. She loves being around people and has a funny little habit of rubbing her back against your legs or hands to give herself a back scratch while soaking up affection. She's cheerful, affectionate, and always interested in being part of whatever you're doing. Limbo takes a little longer to warm up. He's more of an observer at first, quietly taking everything in before deciding you're worthy of his trust. But once he settles in, his sweet and gentle personality shines through. His foster describes him simply as perfection. Together, they're remarkably easy companions. They quickly learned the routine in foster care, sleep quietly through the night, and are making excellent progress with house training. They use wee-wee pads and are learning that going outside is pretty great, too. Like many dogs experiencing home life for the first time, they still have the occasional accident, but they're trying hard and improving every day. These two get along beautifully with other dogs of all sizes and are currently living with canine housemates ranging from tiny to over 70 pounds. They're also wonderful with children and have shown themselves to be resilient, adaptable, and incredibly loving. What makes Delilah and Limbo so special isn't just their bond—it's their outlook on life. After spending nearly 11 years as two of more than 60 dogs, they could have been fearful or withdrawn. Instead, they have embraced every opportunity for love, comfort, and connection. They don't ask for much. A soft bed. A steady routine. A family to call their own. And most importantly, each other. Delilah and Limbo are looking for a home that understands some bonds are too special to break. In return, they'll fill that home with twice the love, twice the companionship, and countless heartwarming moments.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Rascal is with our partner rescue in LA and can come to NJ with an approved foster or adopter Meet Rascal — and yes, you read that right, he’s a Doxie-Poo (that’s Dachshund + Poodle, with a little “doc-doc” charm mixed in). This sweet 7-year-old boy recently lost his world when his owner passed away. He was found living alongside a couple of other dogs, and now he’s looking for a soft place to land and someone to love him again. Rascal is calm, gentle, and happiest when he’s close to his person. He’s the kind of dog who will quietly keep you company, soaking up attention without demanding too much. Low energy and easygoing, he’s perfect for a home that appreciates a peaceful companion. Don’t let his mellow personality fool you—this little guy has some surprising athletic skills and can clear a 30-inch barrier, so he’ll need a home with a secure, tall fence to keep him safe. Rascal is friendly, quiet, and full of quiet devotion. After everything he’s been through, he deserves a second chance at love—and he’s ready to give his whole heart in return. If you’re looking for a loyal little shadow who just wants to be near you, Rascal might be your perfect match. Rascal is up to date on vaccines and tested negative for heartworm.  He has been neutered and has a microchip. His adoption fee is $500.  Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training   prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through, they deserve a loving, committed home. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 26, 2026, 11:03 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Georgie is with our partner rescue in LA and can catch a ride to NJ with an approved foster or adopter Meet Georgie, your future tiny sidekick with a big personality. Georgie is a black-and-white bundle of puppy joy who appears to be some sort of Dachshund mix… but honestly, your guess is as good as ours. What we do know is that at about 15 pounds now, he is expected to stay on the smaller side, likely topping out around 25–30 pounds full grown. In other words: perfectly portable, endlessly lovable. This little guy was found as a stray, so his past is a mystery—but he is clearly making up for lost time with pure, unfiltered happiness. Georgie is spunky, goofy, and full of puppy energy. He loves everyone he meets, both two-legged and four-legged, and approaches life like it is one big play session. Toys are his absolute favorite, and he is always ready to show off his silly side. Whether he is zooming around, tossing his toys in the air, or just being his adorable little self, Georgie keeps the good vibes going all day long. He is looking for a home that will embrace his playful spirit, guide him as he grows, and give him all the love he so clearly deserves. If you are ready for a small, happy, toy-loving best friend who will keep you smiling, Georgie is your guy. Georgie is up to date on vaccines and has been treated for puppy parasites. He will be  neutered, microchipped and get his rabies vaccine prior to coming to NJ. His adoption donation is $600.  Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training  prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 26, 2026, 11:03 am

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Izzy is with our partner rescue in LA and can come to NJ with an approved foster or adopter Meet Izzy — a tiny scruffy sidekick with a big heart  Izzy is a 3-year-old, 12-pound bundle of sweetness (we’re guessing poodle/dachshund mix, but 100% adorable is confirmed). She may not have had the best start in life, but you’d never know it now—this little girl is all about love, comfort, and moving forward. Izzy is the definition of an easy companion. She’s quiet, friendly, and happiest right by your side (or better yet, tucked under the covers—yes, she’s a certified bed snuggler). She loves attention and soaks up affection like she’s making up for lost time. She gets along beautifully with both big and small dogs, has been perfectly polite around outdoor cats, and isn’t fazed by much of anything. Izzy walks nicely on leash, rides well in the car, and settles in like she’s been part of your life forever. If you’re looking for a gentle, loving, low-key best friend who will happily share your bed and your heart, Izzy might just be your girl. Apply to adopt Izzy and give this sweet soul the forever home she deserves. Izzy is up to date on vaccines and tested negative for heartworm.  She has been spayed and has a microchip. Her adoption fee is $500.  Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Buddy is with our partner rescue in LA and can come to NJ with an approved foster or adopter Meet Buddy — 16 pounds of sweetness just waiting for his moment. This 3-year-old doxy/poodle mix may be small in size, but he’s got a heart that’s ready to grow big for the right person. Buddy came to us after being picked up by Animal Control, where he was living alongside a couple of other dogs (who are also looking for homes). While we don’t know everything about his past, it’s clear he’s been through a lot—and he’s still holding onto hope. Buddy can be a little cautious and timid when first meeting new people, but give him a little time and patience, and you’ll see his true personality shine. Once he feels safe, he becomes playful, affectionate, and incredibly endearing. He’s the kind of dog who will bond deeply with his person and make you feel like the center of his world. At just 16 pounds, Buddy is the perfect size for cuddling on the couch, joining you for walks, or simply being your quiet little shadow around the house. What Buddy needs most is someone willing to go slow, let him build trust, and show him what love really feels like. In return, you’ll get a loyal, loving companion who will never take a second chance for granted. Buddy has waited long enough. Let’s find him the safe, happy home he deserves. Buddy is up to date on vaccines and tested negative for heartworm. H e has been spayed and has a microchip. His  adoption fee is $500.  Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training   prior to adoption.
