Story

💔 URGENT: Patagonia is trying so hard to be brave… but shelter life is wearing on her. Sweet Patagonia was found as a stray alongside another dog, and despite everything changing around her, she’s holding onto hope the best way she knows how. This beautiful girl is the definition of a sweetheart. She already knows how to sit, listens well, and walks nicely on a leash. She loves peanut butter, treats, and gentle ear scratches — the little things that help remind her people can still be kind. Patagonia tried so hard during her heartworm test, but the stress became a little too much, and she was given a break. It’s hard not to wonder what she’s been through before landing here. Even overwhelmed, she continues trying. Behind those soulful eyes is a dog who just wants safety, patience, and someone to love her. A kennel is no place for a gentle shepherd girl like this. Please help Patagonia find the family she desperately needs before time runs out. She deserves soft beds, kind hands, and a life where she never has to feel scared again. 🐾 PLEASE HELP TEXT KAREN 4136298152

Story

My name is Trinity. I am about 2.5 to 3 years old and 50 lbs. I found myself in need of rescue when I was abandoned with my one puppy. She has found her forever home. I am a sweet and docile Shepherd mix. I am highly food motivated and will try to do anything for a treat. I am not sure how to play with toys yet but they are interesting to me! I do know what to do with a kong or a long lasting chew! I am a good walker on leash, I am leisurely in my strolls and greet dogs kindly. I am housebroken and don't need a crate anymore. I love to run around my fenced in yard and chase critters. I am good with other dogs and love the people I have met. I would be fine in a home as an only dog, I have the maturity and confidence for that type of lifestyle. I love to follow my humans and soak up the attention they give. I have met cats in my past and have been okay but my exposure hasn't been very long. I am a wonderful companion and quite a beauty! I am located in NJ! Here is the link to the application if you are interested in me. https://www.zivadogrescue.org/adoptable-dogs
