Story

Meet Charlotte, a 2-year-old Border Collie/ German Shepherd mix who is originally from Jordan. Charlotte was rescued off of the streets of Jordan and spent time being cared for by her rescuers. She is a loving dog who knows her commands. She loves taking walks and is great on a leash, but can bark at dogs that are passing by. We are currently addressing through training sessions that we hope to continue with her adoptive family. She loves cuddling on your lap and playing outside. She is good with adults, but needs a patient approach with some men. She can get the zoomies so adults need to keep her calm and controlled around young children. She should be the only dog in a home. Due to her sensitive nature, she may get nervous and guarded in new environments, but once she warms up she is a dream! Charlotte needs a home with an active lifestyle. If you are a jogger or runner, Charlotte would love to accompany you on your journeys. She would also thrive in activities like agility training. Charlotte needs a loving and patient home with someone with a calm demeanor to help her acclimate to her new environment. Will you give her a chance?

Story

Hi, I am Luca, an affectionate 2 ½-year-old Canaan Dog that has quite a story! I am originally from a shelter in Bethlehem, Palestine. I made my way to the United States in August and have been fostered in New Jersey since. I have adapted well to my new life and am excited to find my forever home. Once I get to know someone well, I'll warm up to them quickly. There is nothing I won't do for cuddles and belly rubs! This is because I love people! I also like other dogs; however, I need a slow introduction. I know my basic training commands and am exceptionally good at “sit” and “down.” My foster family has worked with a professional trainer, and they continue to train me. They report that I am making great progress as my breed is very smart and known for my exceptional training abilities. According to my foster family, I am extremely loving, affectionate, and loyal. I love hanging out on the porch or in the backyard and would do best in a home with some enclosed outdoor space. I will happily rest my head on my foster mom's lap or turn over for belly rubs while we are watching TV. I am fully house trained, vaccinated, and healthy. I would do best with an experienced forever person or family who would take pleasure in continuing to train me. My ideal home is one without little humans since I enjoy a calm environment. Will you open your heart to me?

Story

Hi, my name is Chance, and I am a 9-year-old male American Bulldog originally from Florida. I once had a lovely home and loving family, but sadly, they surrendered me to the shelter where I waited for them to return. They never did return so I sat in my kennel for months hoping someone would fall in love with my sweet face and loving personality. Then Hurricane Ida pummeled through my home state, leaving so many pets displaced with nowhere to go. With so many people surrendering their animals during this desperate time, the shelter was at capacity, which put my name on a euthanasia list. Knowing very well that I deserved a second chance, the shelter staff reached out to CDA who gladly took me and several other dogs on the euthanasia list under their wing just in time. I am now in New Jersey adjusting to my new environment. I really miss being part of a family, so I am looking for my second chance at happiness. Everyone who meets me says I am a gem, and that any family would be lucky to have me. I am looking for a family that will happily take me on walks so I can exercise and stay healthy. I am also looking for a family that will continue with my training in order to ensure I am the best boy I can be. My ideal family will spend time doting on me as the only fur baby of the home, playing and snuggling with me. Will you give me a second chance?
