Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Nala! Quiet Senior Soul Looking for a Patient Heart   Nala was abandoned by the only family she had ever known after 10 years, she struggled to adjust to a new baby in the home. When we first met Nala, it was heartbreaking. She was confused, scared, and shutting down, not understanding why the people she trusted had left her behind.   Since coming into our care, Nala has been given the time and patience she needed to decompress. While she has made progress, learning to trust again has been a slow journey for her. The world feels a little safer now, but she still needs someone special who understands that trust takes time.   Nala is looking for a quiet, calm home with a patient adopter who is willing to move at her pace, earn her trust, and give her the safe and loving environment she deserves. With kindness, consistency, and love, Nala has the potential to blossom into a deeply loyal companion.   If you have the heart and patience for a dog who just needs someone to believe in her again, Nala may be waiting for you. ❤️Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 17, 2026, 7:25 am

Meet Linus! Fostered in Cape May, NJ This adorable almost 2-year-old Maltese is basically a living teddy bear with the sweetest little heart. Linus is the ultimate Velcro lap dog. His favorite place in the whole world is snuggled up next to his person, soaking up belly rubs and all the love you can give. If you're petting another dog, don't be surprised if he wiggles his way into your lap to remind you he's ready for his turn! He's just beginning to discover how to play with toys, loves rolling around on the couch in pure happiness, and is happiest simply being by your side. Whether you're working, running errands, or relaxing at home, Linus wants to be your little shadow. Crate trained 95% house trained Great with dogs and cats Neutered, microchipped & up to date on vaccines His foster says he's the perfect little gentleman...and it's easy to see why.

Story
This is Barney, and though he's not a big purple dinosaur, we still think he is pretty special. This 6 year old guy is absolute perfection. He is incredibly trainable and eager to learn. He is food motivated and on his report card it would say he is "a pleasure to have in class!" Barney also loves a good play sesh, and thinks all toys are the greatest ever. He is active and pretty much always in good spirits. He hopes you will excuse his appearance as he came to us and his skin is a bit irritated after his makeover! Come meet Barney today! To see more of Barney in action, please follow this link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mTTjyNUH-uSRvGST1K0iXU6kcLp0BUgI?usp=drive_link If you're interested in adopting this animal, please come meet them at our shelter (1242 Lombard St.)!

Story
                                                                             KENNEL ID #18804Heff is a 9 lb, 6-year-old Maltese who recently retired from a commercial breeding kennel. For most of his life, his only job was making puppies, so he’s still learning what it means to simply be a loved family dog. Heff is a very sweet little guy, but he’s understandably shy and unsure in new situations due to limited socialization. He enjoys being gently picked up and petted, though he may be nervous at first. While he doesn’t seek out attention yet, it’s clear he wants to trust and is making progress every day. Heff will need a patient adopter who understands that love, time, and consistency will help him continue to blossom. He thrives around other dogs and must have a confident canine companion in his new home to help him learn the routines of family life and build his confidence. A quiet home without young children would be the best fit for Heff. If you have a gentle heart and the patience to help this deserving little guy discover how wonderful life can be, Heff will reward you by becoming a loyal companion. Adoption Fee $400Thank you for your interest in rescue. If you would like to be considered for adoption, please submit an application to adopt. If you have any questions regarding the adoption process, please email:  rescuedp2024@icloud.com  or ddlu219@yahoo.com   for dog/puppies.    APPLICATIONS TO ADOPT : DOG     CAT     BIRD      REPTILE       SMALL ANIMALS       July 20, 2026, 4:09 pm
