Story

Lannister needs a new home. I originally got Lannister with an ex boyfriend. Now that we have gone our separate ways, I do not have the capacity to give Lanny the energy and attention he deserves. He is a sleepy, calm dog in the home but outside the home he is extremely playful and fun. Loves to play with his flirt pole and chase balls. I would love for him to go to someone who has a backyard. I am desperate to find him a good loving home.

Story

Meet Benny, an eight-year-old dog originally from Korea. Benny is a super sweet dog with a lot of love and heart. He just wants all the cuddles and pets and to feel safe. He gets along well with other dogs as hes spent his life growing up around them but he was abused when he was in Korea so he trusts females easier than males due to the abuse coming from a male. He has zero aggressive bones in his body and would most likely do good around cats if needed as well. He walks well on leash once he trust you, but will freeze if he gets scared. He has a half brother who lives with me as well, which I had adopted a few years prior to Benny. He has a collapsed trachea that he takes a small pill in his food twice daily but doesnt affect his lifespan. This has caused him to gain weight (though he had a weight problem in Korea due to not be giving food at times so now he loves his food). He is a little chunky monkey. He also has some flakey skin issues so extra baths and a cherry eye.

Story

🐾 Meet Nyla: A Sweetheart Looking for Her Pack! 🐾 Look at those soulful eyes! This is Nyla, a beautiful 6-month-old Plott Hound mix who is ready to find her forever family. Nyla is a "gentle soul" in a stunning brindle package. While she might act a little bashful when she first meets you, don't let that fool you—once she feels safe, her loyal and loving personality shines through. 🌟 The "Social Butterfly" in Training: Nyla is a total dog's dog! She finds her courage through her furry friends. Having another confident dog in the home is the ultimate "confidence booster" for her; she watches what they do and realizes, "Hey, this human is actually pretty great!" However, treats go a long way with Nyla! A tasty treat and it won't take long until she is in your lap. She is a great patient at the vet and a good car rider! 🏠 Nyla’s Wishlist: • A Furry Sibling: Since other dogs boost her confidence, she’d love a home with a canine brother or sister to show her the ropes. • Adventure & Naptime: We think she is a hound mix (including Beagle and Plott perhaps), so she’s got a great nose for adventure, but she’s just as happy curling up on a soft blanket once she's tuckered out. ✨ Quick Facts: • Age: 4.5 Months • Breed: Beagle/Plott/Whippet Mix • Personality: Sweet, observant, and gentle. • Compatibility: Great with other dogs! Is Nyla the missing piece to your pack? Nyla is crate trained, housebroken, and is very treat-motivated (snacks = love language). She also has a special talent for snow romping and takes her winter play very seriously. ❄️🐾. Here is a link to the application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ZIVA/Dog

Tater Tot

German Shepherd Dog Basset Hound

Male, 3 mos

Chatham, NJ

Size

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

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

My name is Tater and I am the cutest little Tot! I am a low riding baby. The foster boy in my family calls me "stubby," I don't think that's very polite but he's not wrong. I am a confident little muffin at just 10 weeks and 14 lbs. I am super entertaining and social and really loving my life. I spend my day playing and wrestling with my puppy friends and cuddling up to my humans. I enjoy chewing on my toys and finding some mischief if I can. :) I am crate trained and if my foster mom would pay more attention (her words!), I would be basically fully housebroken at my young age. I am a smart cookie and if I have an accident it's right by the back door... I mean, come on! I could easily live in a home with kids and dogs (or not!); I haven't met a cat but I am sure I would just want to play. My dad was a medium shepherd mix and my mama is like me - a low-rider! I should not be very big full grown - we are guesstimating 30 to 35. I am located in NJ and ready to meet you. Here is an application if you would like to apply for me! https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ZIVA/Dog

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

My name is Frosty. I am as white as snow! I am a 6 month old petite pup. By looks of me and my perky ear, I am a terrier mix. Based on my personality, I could be part Jack Russell. I am 20ish lbs so we don't expect me to get much bigger than 30 or 35 lbs. I am a fun, active and bouncy pup. I am social and friendly with all of my dog friends. I just go about my day hoping they will want to play with me! I seek attention from my human and really am longing for my own humans. I love when they play with me and want to cuddle. I also love going places with them. I am a great car rider. I have not met young kids nor cats. I will need some basics in my new home - continued work on housebreaking, learning some house rules, leash training. I am a smart cookie and super food motivated; training me will be fun! If you are interested, please apply here! https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ZIVA/Dog

Aurelia

Labrador Retriever Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, 8 mos

Chatham, NJ

Size

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

Details

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

Story

Meet Aurelia! Aurelia is 44 pounds of soft, sweet, goofy puppy love. This 8-month-old Lab mix is the kind of dog who wants to be wherever you are - right next to you on the couch, following you to the kitchen, checking in with you just because…and she thumps her cute little tail any time she catches you looking at her. Here are some adorable things we love about this girl: - She carries around her stuffed Lamby and likes to snuggle with it on the couch - She quickly learned how much fun it is to play with her ball in the snow. - She loves love. Seriously. People are her favorite thing in the world. - She excels at doing her business outside and sleeps through the night with no problem! Aurelia is learning all about how great the world is right now, and would love to find a patient family who will help her continue exploring at her own pace! She plays nicely with other dogs and could be happy living with one, but she’s really all about her people, so she would be fine soaking up all of the attention for herself as well! Cats are strange and she doesn’t quite understand them yet, so she’d probably prefer to live in a home without those weird little things! We have not seen Aurelia around children, but we suspect she’d love to join a family with calm older children. Is Aurelia your girl? Submit an adoption application, and we’ll be in touch! https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ZIVA/Dog
