Story

This angel face was found as a stray and is really a GREAT girl. She ended up in a high kill local shelter and no one has claimed her. Gentle and loves having her back scratched. Without an adopter, she will die in that shelter this week. Our rescue facility is full so we cannot pull her unless we can find an adopter for her. If you're willing to give this sweet girl a chance please submit an application as soon as possible (she is on their kill list for this week if rescue can't save her). Transport is included in the adoption fee. No additional charges to get her to you!

Luna

Catahoula Leopard Dog Hound (Unknown Type)

Female, 1 yr

Newark, NJ

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Luna was surrendered to a high kill county shelter because the owner couldn't manage a child and the dog at the same time. She is incredibly sweet and people-oriented. She prefers quiet and calm atmospheres with no small children. Would be great with a confident dog in the home. Easygoing, loving, and will need to decompress when she first arrives (this means she needs some space of her own to chill for a bit until she is comfortable in her new home before being introduced properly to new dogs). She is completely vetted including being spayed and heartworm negative. **She is located in Lexington SC - transport to your area is included in the adoption fee, no additional charges**

Buttercup

English Bulldog

Female, Adult

Newark, NJ

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Buttercup is very sweet dog but has always been a timid dog since I brought her from her breeder at 13 weeks old (Born 3/18/21). She is a purebred. She is very attached to me and gets scared when visiting new places or going to vet. She is good with children although she gets too excited and overly jumps to play. She is trained to use bathroom outside but when weather is bad (freezing cold/rain), she will not use the bathroom outside but prefer to use a wee wee pad. She does not have bed because I've learned anything on the floor- bed or mats she mistakes for a wee wee pad and will pee on it. She is spayed. She is up to date with most vaccines - she is due for her Bordetella vaccine in April. She was just seen by vet 2/14/26- Banfield Pet Hospital in union NJ. As much as I want to keep her, she is a lot to maintain and I am currently trying to also rehome her daughter (Duchess 1 year an 7mon) since I am currently pregnant and can not care for 2 English Bulldogs.
