Story

Meet Yuki🤍 Yuki is a 3 year old Great Dane mix, she weighs 75lbs. Got her from a shelter in St.Petersburg Florida. She is a very sweet, kind, gentle and shy girl. She loves her plush toys and the couch! She is very good around kids and other dogs, she is very anxious and timid with grown adults but after a few days warms up! She has a lot of GI issues that we have been working on the last two years. Yuki also has severe anxiety with going outside. The anxiety then triggers her GI issues.She would be great in a home with someone able to care for her the way she needs.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Marble - a brindle mystery creature with giant webbed toes, puffy soft fur, and no clear explanation.Honestly, we're not entirely sure what Marble is. Some kind of floofy muppet? A tiny bear? A swamp creature with excellent manners? Whatever the recipe was, the result is ridiculously cute.Marble is a goofy little big guy with an adorably aloof streak. He bumbles around the world in his own lane, occasionally looking like he just remembered he has feet. He's silly, curious, and has the kind of awkward puppy energy that makes you laugh without him even trying. One minute he's proudly trotting around on those enormous flipper-paws, the next he's staring off into space like he forgot what he was doing halfway through.But underneath the lovable goofball exterior is an incredibly sweet puppy who just wants affection and reassurance. Marble absolutely melts for attention and is happiest when he's being loved on by his people. He may act like a strange little cryptid, but at the end of the day he's just a soft-hearted baby looking for comfort, companionship, and someone to tell him he's handsome.As a puppy, Marble is still learning about the world and growing into whatever magnificent creature he's destined to become. He'll need a home ready for all the fun, patience, and occasional chaos that comes with raising a young dog - but in return, you'll get a one-of-a-kind best friend with a huge heart and even bigger feet.If you've been searching for a puppy who's equal parts sweetheart, comedian, and unidentified species, Marble is ready to waddle straight into your life.If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website www.savehomelessanimals.org.

Ozzy

Poodle (Standard)

Male, Adult

Skillman, NJ

Size

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

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Ozzy: part poodle-looking thing, part race horse, part personal space violator.Ozzy is...a lot. And he's hilarious. He trots around like he's about to enter the Kentucky Derby, except the only prize he's interested in winning is your undivided attention. Once he spots a person, he's coming in hot for a hug whether you want him to or not. In short: he just wants to be enthusiastically loved on, he just doesn't always ask for it in the most tactful way.Subtlety is not Ozzy's strong suit. He doesn't ask for attention, he launches himself into it. Personal boundaries? No way. But underneath the chaos and unabashed zest for life is a dog that just wants to go home with patient people that are going to love him and give him the run around play time and enrichment that he needs to be his best self (and preferably while he's being told he's the best boy in the world [which is fact, and not opinion if you ask him.])Ozzy would thrive with someone who appreciates a high-energy, slightly ridiculous shadow who will follow them around, demand scratches and snuggles, and keep life entertaining at all times. If you've been searching for a dog who greets every day like it's the most exciting even in history, Ozzy is ready to gallop straight into your heart.If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website www.savehomelessanimals.org. SAVE is operating by appointment-only for approved adopters. For more information please call SAVE at 609-309-5214. Primary Color: Black Weight: 50.125 Age: 3yrs 9mths 1wks

Story

***Adoption Fee WAIVED***Meet Amira: A gentle soul ready to bloom.Amira's story began alongside her siblings on the streets of Puerto Rico, where survival meant staying close and staying cautious. Life began with much uncertainty, but even in those early days, Amira carried a softness about her - a quiet, watchful sweetness that makes you lean in a little closer.Like her sister, Amira is shy when first meeting new people or exploring new spaces. She takes her time. She studies. She listens. But behind those thoughtful eyes is a curious puppy who WANTS to be brave. You can see it in the way she lingers instead of retreating, in the way her tail gives small, hopeful sways.Amira isn't looking for the loudest home or the busiest, most active one. She's looking for patience and understanding. With consistency and love, she will grow into the secure, devoted companion she is capable of becoming. Amira is ready for a family that sees her not for the hesitation she carries now, but for the extraordinary dog she is becoming. If you believe in nurturing potential and celebrating small victories, Amira is ready to start her next chapter with you.If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website www.savehomelessanimals.org. SAVE is operating by appointment-only for approved adopters. For more information please call SAVE at 609-309-5214. Primary Color: Brown Secondary Color: Black Weight: 24 Age: 0yrs 7mths 2wks
