Story

Rocket’s adoption fee has been sponsored through the month of February! 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.

Story

Pabst is a 2-year-old, 50 lb German Shepherd mix with an adorable stubby tail and a heart full of love. Her brother Modelo arrived at our rescue first, and now Pabst has joined him — bringing her sweet and playful personality along. Pabst was surrendered with five other dogs. She’s a friendly, affectionate girl who loves attention and isn’t shy about greeting you with a hug. When introduced to a toy, she lights up, happily trotting around the interaction pen while keeping it close — trading it for a treat but always running back for it again. She is reportedly good with kids and has shown she is good with other dogs. Pabst enjoys pets and human companionship, making her a loving, playful, and engaging dog ready to find her forever home. We know Modelo, her brother, is good with cats as per the owner, but he didn't specify if Pabst was or not. When cat tested at the shelter, she was interested at first but did well! A slow feline sibling intro may work for Pabst. She is microchipped, spayed, and up to date on vaccines. Her adoption fee is $415. Apply at ehrdogs.org and ask for PABST ATHENS!

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.February 9, 2026, 4:44 pm
