Story
This is August, a 2yr old border collie mix. I rescued when she was 1. She was a stray and not socialized or trained. She is a sweet-heart, energetic, silly, sassy, and eager to learn. She knows a bunch of commands: bow, crawl, freeze, down, sit, touch, come, paw, high five, middle, side, etc and is a beginner in agility. She loves hikes. She is reactive toward strangers, dogs, and needs to be sedated at the vet. She needs a calm, compassionate, and fun household. She really is the best girl. I was diagnosed with a progressive chronic illness and am unable to take care of her physical needs. I love her more than anything and want to find her a home where she will be happy, fulfilled, and adored.

Story
Vixxen's Story Meet Vixxen 🤍 Vixxen is a 7-year-young female Pitbull with a big heart and an even bigger personality. She came to us after her previous owner made the difficult decision to surrender her due to not having enough time—but Vixxen hasn’t let that dim her spirit one bit. She’s incredibly smart and loves getting out of her kennel. In fact, she’ll do just about anything to make sure you notice her! Her kennel manners might not be picture-perfect, but that’s only because she’s working overtime to make sure you hear her and don’t pass her by. Once that kennel door opens, her true self shines—she’s ready to walk, play, and soak up all the love she can get. 🤗 Vixxen is a strong, solid girl weighing around 65–70 lbs. She’s dog-friendly, loyal to her people, and would thrive with a family who’s ready to give her the time and attention she’s been missing. If you’re looking for a devoted companion who just wants to be seen, loved, and included—Vixxen is waiting for you.

At 7 years old, Gertrude has the perfect balance of maturity and personality. She still enjoys spending time with her people but also knows how to settle in and relax.

Story
Duke 's Story Duke is a 10-year-old Boxer with a heart as big as his blocky head. Weighing in at about 65 pounds, this handsome senior found himself in our care after his owner experienced a family hardship and could no longer keep him. Despite the changes in his life, Duke remains a gentle, resilient soul who is ready to start his next chapter with a loving family. At some point in his life, Duke may have suffered a stroke, which left him with facial paralysis on one side of his face. The good news is that it doesn’t slow him down one bit—he eats, drinks, and enjoys life just like any other dog. In fact, his lopsided grin only adds to his unique and charming good looks. Duke enjoys getting out for walks and exploring the world around him. He can pull a bit on the leash, so he may benefit from some structure and guidance in this area, but he’s eager to please and would do well with someone willing to work with him. He’s a friendly guy who gets along well with other dogs and has even shown that he’s okay with cats, making him a great candidate for many different types of homes. Duke has been through a lot, but his spirit is strong and his heart is full of love to give. If you’re looking to open your home to a loyal, sweet senior who just needs a soft place to land, Duke might be your perfect match. We are now accepting applications for Duke and would love to help him find the forever home he deserves. 🐾💙 Please apply for Duke at https://www.gloucestercountynj.gov/FormCenter/Animal-Shelter-5/PreAdoption-Application-50

Story
Cookee's Story Cookee is a beautiful 2-year-old, 47-lb red and white Husky who came to us after being surrendered by her previous owner through no fault of her own. This sweet girl has a big personality and an even bigger heart. She’s friendly, affectionate, and always ready for attention, but like many young Huskies, she has lots of energy and can be a bit hyper at times. Cookee enjoys being active and will thrive with an adopter who can give her plenty of exercise, structure, and consistency. She does pull strongly on the leash, so continued training will help her learn better walking manners. With patience and positive reinforcement, she has great potential to be an amazing companion. She may even understand some Spanish commands! As a true Husky, Cookee is curious and clever—two traits that make this breed famous for their escape-artist skills. Because of this, she will require a securely fenced yard where she can safely run and play. Husky experience is strongly preferred to ensure she goes to a home that understands the breed’s energy, intelligence, and need for stimulation. Cookee is ready to find an active, loving family who will give her the time, training, and adventure she deserves. We are now accepting applications for Cookee. 🐾 Please apply for Cookee at https://www.gloucestercountynj.gov/FormCenter/Animal-Shelter-5/PreAdoption-Application-50
