Story
Still no interest for beautiful ASPEN, and we just don’t understand why 💔😔 Aspen was found on Dead Dog Beach starving and suffering from heartworm. Now, after months of rehabilitation and treatment at the vet and our Sanctuary, we are pleased to report he has reached a healthy weight and the heartworm has been treated and deemed incommunicable 🤗 Aspen is all better and has been ready for his forever home for a while now ♥️ But nobody seems to notice him… Aspen is 2-3 years old and weighs 52 lbs. He is a medium/high energy dude who loves to play and explore. We’re guessing he has some lab mix in him, but you never know with satos - they can be anything! Aspen’s ideal home is one with no cats or young children. But he does well with other pups! We know the perfect adopters are out there waiting for him. If you think that’s you, apply at thesatoproject.org/adopt or email us at adoption@thesatoproject.org today 🙏

Story
Kisa is a lovable girl who is around 6 to 7 years old and weighs 30 lbs. She can be shy when meeting new people, but underneath that timid exterior is a very sweet girl just waiting to feel safe. Kisa may need a little extra time and patience as she adjusts to a new home and learns to trust. She isn't the type to rush into things, but that makes earning her trust even more special. Once she knows she's safe, her gentle and loving personality begins to come through. Kisa is looking for a patient family who will let her settle in at her own pace and show her just how wonderful life as a loved family dog can be. She has so much love to give and is just waiting for the right person to give her that chance. Kisa is being fostered in NJ and has won the hearts of everyone she meets!

Meet Arlo! Arlo is 6 years old and 27 lbs. He was rescued by The Sato Project from a hoarding case in Puerto Rico, where he lived surrounded by many other dogs. Now Arlo is ready for a much quieter chapter. He is looking for a calm, loving home where he can decompress, settle in at his own pace, and learn how wonderful it is to have a family of his very own. Arlo is being fostered in NJ and is learning to live happily in a home! He is available for meet and greets with approved adopters. This sweet boy has been through a lot, and now it’s his turn to know the comfort, love, and safety of a forever home. To Adopt: Fill out an application at thesatoproject.org/applicationform.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. This handsome guy is Trey! Trey is a Pittie mix, about 6 years old. Trey was adopted through Rescue Ridge a little over a year ago. His mom loves him dearly but due do some very difficult unforeseen circumstances, she can no longer keep Trey. She is heartbroken and so are we. We have a few weeks to find Trey a new home, or he will have to come back to our kennel.  Trey is a fantastic dog. Super sweet and friendly! Loves all his mom’s friends and neighbors and is good with children. He’s housebroken and extremely well behaved in the home. He has even had professional training! His mom describes him as the ultimate cuddle bug. He loves to be around people and would love a home where someone is home a majority of the time. Trey also loves to play and would truly enjoy a home with a fenced yard. Trey’s only request is to be the only dog in the home. Trey is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. If you’d like to meet this sweet boy, please fill out an application on our website at Rescueridge.com. If your application is a possible match, a volunteer will reach out to you to schedule a meet.    Trey is located in Monmouth County, NJVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 27, 2026, 9:12 pm
