Story

Hey guys! We have a very sweet medical case German Shepherd named Ruger. He is about 2 years old and weighs 83 pounds. Ruger is extremely tolerant, easy to work with and has been friendly with all the other animals he’s met (check out these cat pictures!). Our doctor examined him and found the following - He’s got nerve damage in his right hind leg and the left front has an elbow fracture and is very swollen (we felt a click). The left front really needs immediate repair. His x-rays show a pelvic fracture on the left side and a luxated left front with a chip fracture. The elbow was the real issue and Ruger has now had surgery to put it back in place and secure it. He is recuperating in a wonderful foster home in Texas before he can make the trip to NJ to find a home. We will be updating Ruger's bio as we learn more about his medical condition and this sweet boy's personality. If you'd like to open up your home to Ruger, please fill out an adoption application at www.northstarpets.org and be sure to ask for RUGER GSD TX.January 28, 2026, 10:08 am

Story

Meet Modelo, a sweet 2-year-old boy who is ready for a fresh start. He was surrendered in Georgia along with five other dogs, and while he arrived underweight, it’s clear he’s full of love and resilience. No one knows exactly what he went through, but his gentle, trusting nature speaks volumes. Modelo loves meeting new people and happily soaks up attention, pets, and treats. According to his former owner in Georgia, he is good with kids, other dogs, and even cats. He is also house trained, making him an easy addition to a home. Modelo is microchipped, neutered, and up to date on vaccines, and he’s hoping to find a loving family who will give him the care and kindness he deserves.

Story

Maxwell is a handsome and affectionate 7-year-old German Shepherd who weighs about 80 pounds and has been fully vetted. He arrived at the shelter in October 2025 when his owner was arrested and Maxwell had nowhere else to go. Despite this tough start, Maxwell is a friendly and generous soul. He’s great with kids and absolutely LOVES to play Fetch—really, he ALWAYS wants to play ball. Here's what a shelter employee said about Max, " Max is fixated on balls. He locks in on them and if he sees one, there’s nothing else that will interest him. Even just carrying it around in his mouth makes him happy, but he prefers to play Fetch. He’s an expert retriever and can literally be happy chasing the ball for more than an hour." Maxwell is housebroken and walks nicely on a leash, making him a reliable and easygoing companion for daily adventures. He spent some time in a foster home where he was a perfect gentleman. Maxwell also gets along well with the other dogs he has met at the shelter. And his goofy, enthusiastic personality is sure to bring smiles to any family. Maxwell would thrive in an active home where daily exercise, playtime, and plenty of cuddles are part of the routine. If you'd like to meet Maxwell in person when he arrives, just fill out an adoption application and be sure to mention his name, MAXWELL SCAS!

Story

Rocket is a stunning white Shepherd mix who turns heads wherever he goes. He’s a high-energy boy who’s full of life, love, and enthusiasm, and he’s always ready for his next adventure. Rocket does wonderfully with adults, and gets along great with other dogs outside of the home. He would prefer to live either as only dog or perhaps with a female around his size. His happy, loving personality makes him an absolute joy to be around. Rocket is microchipped, neutered, and up to date on vaccines — all he’s missing now is a family to share his big heart with. Apply for Rocket at EHRDOGS.ORG (function () { // Only on animal detail pages if (!/\/animals\/detail/i.test(location.pathname)) return; // Debounce to avoid double-fire (touchend + click, etc.) var lastNavAt = 0; function toFullSize(url) { try { var u = new URL(url, location.href); u.searchParams.delete('width'); u.searchParams.delete('height'); return u.toString(); } catch (e) { return url || ''; } } function looksLikeAnimalPhoto(url) { return /\/pictures\/animals\/\d+\/\d+\/[^?#]+\.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif)/i.test(url || ''); } function handler(e) { var el = e.target; if (!el) return; // Find the closest anchor or image in the click path var a = el.closest ? el.closest('a') : null; var img = el.closest ? el.closest('img') : null; var url = ''; // Prefer anchor href if it points to an animal photo if (a && a.getAttribute) { var href = a.getAttribute('href') || ''; if (href && (href.indexOf('/pictures/animals/') !== -1 || looksLikeAnimalPhoto(href))) { url = href; } } // Otherwise fall back to the image src if (!url && img && img.getAttribute) { var src = img.getAttribute('src') || ''; if (src && (src.indexOf('/pictures/animals/') !== -1 || looksLikeAnimalPhoto(src))) { url = src; } } if (!url) return; // Absolute URL + full-size version try { url = new URL(url, location.href).toString(); } catch (_) {} url = toFullSize(url); // Stop PrettyPhoto (and any other delegated click handlers) e.preventDefault(); e.stopPropagation(); if (e.stopImmediatePropagation) e.stopImmediatePropagation(); // Debounce var now = Date.now(); if (now - lastNavAt < 500) return; lastNavAt = now; // SAME TAB navigation to the full-size image location.href = url; } // Capture phase is the key: we get the event before PrettyPhoto.

An application does not obligate you to adopt from us, but it does show that you are serious about the adoption process. Please remember we are all volunteers. The first step in the adoption process is to fill out an online adoption application. You can find a copy of that application here. After you submit your application please allow a few days to review your application. During this time your vet reference will be checked. Applications are not approved on a first come, first serve basis. We do look for the best home that fits each of our pets, so even if the pet has other applications, this does not mean he/she will be adopted to that home. Once your application has been approved we with contact you to set up a phone interview. This is the perfect time for you to ask any questions you have about the adoption process and the pet you are interested in.Together we can decide if this is the best choice for both.
