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.

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 all people, and gets along great with other dogs. 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.

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
I rescued Bodhi at All Humane Animal Shelter in 2021. He was 13 weeks old when I rescued him. We have been adventures buddies for over 4 years now. He loves going on hikes, being outdoors, and playing fetch. He loves belly rubs and chicken treats. It breaks my heart to have to get him adopted, but I just recently had a baby and Bodhi hasn’t adjusted well. I’m looking for someone who is willing to give him a good life filled with love, kindness, and adventure.

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
