Story

Leo (4yo) has the best characteristics of his breed - loyal, sweet, low energy, and smart. He plays well: when playing tug he pulls hard with me and then pulls gentle with my children. He is friendly and loves hugs. He also learns faster than most dogs; he is house-trained, very trainable, and knows many commands. He is been trained to stay out of the kitchen and off the furniture, but would love to do both if you are okay with that. Leo is lower energy and is mostly happy to lay on his bed, sit near "his person," or go on slow walks. His personality is mild and sweet. His breed can be protective so he does sometimes bark at other dogs when on walks. But he is very used to being walked with a head collar. Leo is neutered, microchipped, and received all vaccines when he was a puppy, but he is out of date for maintenance vaccines. He is healthy and sturdy. He is allergic to chicken - which is in most dog foods - so he gets salmon based kibbles and treats.

Story

ONLY AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION IN NEW JERSEY AND LOCAL SURROUNDING AREAS!!! If your application is a possible match, a volunteer will get back to you within 48 hrs. No inquiries, please, without an application. Gus is a 3-year-old Great Dane with the gentlest soul. Until very recently, his world was a dirt-floor basement in a rough urban area, living in truly deplorable conditions. No warmth. No comfort. No chance to just be a dog. We were able to get him out just before the snowstorm, but now he urgently needs what every dog deserves — a warm, quiet place to rest, recover, and finally exhale. Despite everything he’s endured, Gus is incredibly sweet, well-mannered, and affectionate. He is very thin and lacking muscle, clearly from a long period without proper nutrition or exercise, but he is food-motivated, eager to please, and so grateful for kindness. Gus did live with cats and other dogs previously, but right now we believe he would thrive best in a home where he can decompress on his own, at his own pace. He needs time to feel safe, to build strength, and to learn what a normal, loved life looks like. If you have room in your heart — and a warm spot in your home — to foster or adopt, you won’t just be giving him shelter. You’ll be giving him the chance to heal and discover the life he was always meant to have. If you are interested in Gus, please go to bfdaaa.com to complete application. February 15, 2026, 6:23 pm

Story

Meet Harley! Harley is a 4 year old Great Dane/Border Collie mix. Harley has settled in nicely with his doggie foster brother but likes to take things slow when meeting new people or in new situations. Once settled in, he is a huge cuddler who loves toys, playtime, snoozing on the couch, and socks. Yes, your socks will be spread in every room of the house if left unattended! Harley is currently 100 lbs. and could stand to lose 15-20 lbs. although good on a leash, Harley would do best with a fenced in yard or adult dog walkers only. He would do best as an only or second dog and no cats. http://www.coldnosewarmheart.org/dog-application.html @cnwhnj @coldnosewarmheartnj

Story

Dakota is a 5.5 year old female Great Dane who is a little overweight. She is extremely well behaved and does not need to be crated. She can be shy, especially with new males, but she warms up quickly. She loves to go on long walks and hikes where she can lead. She will pull on a leash if she’s nervous. She gets along with other dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and squirrels. She prefers dogs that are calm and respect her space. Dakota understands basic commands but believes that they are optional. She is very intelligent and quick to learn. She responds well to a consistent environment with a routine. She can be a bit jumpy with unfamiliar noises but adjusts. Dakota’s confidence has been building every day in her foster home as does her affection. At the end of the day, she will melt into your lap. Please include your home area code and a phone number where a volunteer can reach you when contacting us about an adoption.
