Story
Becca came to the shelter as a stray, so everything we know about her, we've learned since she arrived. We estimate she's about 3 years old, gave her a name, and watched her slowly begin to trust the people caring for her. Once Becca settles in, her sweet personality shines through. She forms strong bonds with the staff and volunteers who spend time with her, and it's clear she just wants love and companionship. When Becca was spayed, our veterinary team discovered and removed a large ovarian tumor. The findings strongly suggest cancer, and unfortunately, there is little we can do for her while she's in the shelter. Right now, our priority isn't treatment—it's giving Becca the chance to spend whatever time she has left in a home where she can be loved. Becca would do best as the only pet, as she has not done well with other dogs in the shelter environment. She urgently needs a rescue or adopter willing to open their heart to a dog who deserves so much more than a kennel. We don't know how much time Becca has, but we do know she deserves to spend it surrounded by kindness, comfort, and love.

Story
Meet Jingles. At almost 5 years old and just over 10 pounds, this little guy has already been bounced around from place to place far too many times. All of that change has left Jingles terrified and guarded, and he needs a home that understands his behavior is rooted in fear and uncertainty. Jingles is looking for an adult only home, potentially with one person, where things are quiet, predictable, and there are little to no visitors. He needs someone experienced and patient who understands that trust will not happen overnight and who is willing to let Jingles show affection on his own terms and at his own pace. Jingles knows what he wants and isn't a fan of sharing. He has lived with another dog before, but any potential canine companion would need to be a very careful, individual match. This is not a dog who should be expected to adjust to a busy household or a lot of new people and situations. Jingles needs a very specific kind of home, one that can give him the consistency and security he has been missing. For the right person, willing to see past his fear and give him the time he needs, Jingles may finally be able to let his guard down and show just how much love he has to give.

Story
Meet Malfoy! This handsome guy is hard to miss. Malfoy is all white with a pair of striking eyes that really make him stand out. Estimated to be about 1 year old and under 50 pounds, he’s a great-looking young pup who is ready to find his family. Malfoy arrived at the shelter as a stray and is still new here, but we already know he is dog friendly. We’d love to see him turn right around and head into a home instead of settling into shelter life. He’s looking for a family to join and a place to call his own. If you’ve been looking for a young, handsome pup to add to your family, come meet Malfoy! Apply online at ahscares.org/adopt

Story
Meet Dax! Dax is a 2-year-old, 65-pound big boy with plenty of big boy energy! He loves to run, play, play some more, and then come over for a hug when he’s ready for a break. Dax recently returned to the shelter after spending some time in a home, and his report card is glowing. He is a wonderful dog who is still figuring out exactly where he fits best. Dax can be a little anxious when left alone, and because of his size and energy, he may be a bit too much for younger kids. He would do best with a family who understands his personality and can give him the structure, exercise, and companionship he needs. Dax has the potential to live with another dog, and having a canine friend may even help him feel more comfortable when his people need to leave the house. He absolutely loves playing tug of war, running around, and being part of whatever his people are doing. And if you think you’re going to get away with giving someone else a hug without Dax joining in, think again. This boy LOVES hugs and will happily make himself part of the moment! Dax is young, gorgeous, playful, affectionate, and ready to find the forever family that is the right fit for him. Come meet this big lovable guy and see if Dax is your match! 📍2960 Shafto Rd, Tinton Falls, NJ 📝ahscares.org/adopt ID #121459

Story
Coco is almost 2 years old, weighs around 50 pounds, and he needs out of the shelter. Since arriving, Coco has shown extremely high levels of stress, and the longer he remains in the kennel, the more anxious he becomes. Shelter life can be overwhelming for any dog, and Coco is struggling with it more than most. Outside of his kennel, we’ve seen a different side of Coco. He loves toys, enjoys pool time, and is happiest when he can get out, decompress, and simply be a dog. What Coco needs most right now is someone willing to give him that chance. Coco urgently needs a rescue or adopter to step up for him. He deserves a safe place where he can relax, settle in, and begin feeling like himself again. He has spent enough time behind a kennel door. Now, he needs someone to show up for him. 📍2960 Shafto Rd, Tinton Falls, NJ 📝ahscares.org/adopt ID #119591
