Story
Monty was adopted as a puppy from a rescue that is no longer operating. His date of birth is 12/24/21 & weighs about 85 lbs. His Embark DNA says he’s a mix of Great Pyrenees, golden retriever, pitbull, lab, German shepherd, boxer. He’s playful & loving & loves people. He’s generally good with other dogs. We need to find a home better suited for him as an only dog or just no small dogs and older children who won’t get accidentally knocked over. We are seniors and due to his large size we are finding it more challenging to care for him. He has some resource guarding issues so he is fed separately which really helps with this particularly since we have two small dogs as well. Our grandson is now walking and at our house a lot therefore due to Monty’s size we are trying to avoid our grandson from being knocked over or hurt. Monty is an overall good boy and has a lot of love to give! He also needs a fenced in yard. We are happy to answer any questions about Monty.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.NJ Meet Dominic! This boy is now in a NJ foster home!  Meet Dominic — the Spotted Boy Wonder!  If joy had spots, it would look exactly like Dominic. This 2-year-old Catahoula Leopard Dog never met a play session he didn’t love or a human he didn’t want to greet with a big goofy grin. He’s a social butterfly (or maybe a social cheetah?) who loves other dogs, belly rubs, and anything that squeaks. He’s also an inspiration in resilience—Dominic tested positive for heartworm, but he powered through treatment like a champ, thanks to his wonderful foster mom. Now he’s healthy, heartworm-free, and ready to move on to his next big adventure: finding his forever family.  If you’ve been looking for a four-legged best friend who makes every day brighter, Dominic is your guy. —you’ll fall for him faster than he chases tennis balls!  Dominic  is fixed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. His adoption donation will be $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 18, 2026, 1:02 pm
