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. Birdie is a one year old rat terrier who was surrendered after her owner could no longer take care of her. She came to us extremely shy and shut down. She was petrified of any loud noise or sudden movements. Now that she has been in a foster home for a few weeks, she is coming out of her shell, running and playing with the other foster dogs and not tucking her little nubby tail between her legs. Although Birdie lives with other dogs, we believe she would be happy in a quiet adult only home as the only animal. She loves her foster mom and now enjoys pets, butt scratches and belly rubs. Birdie will need some more socializing work and some major TLC but she will be an amazing dog once she gains more confidence. If you are interested in Birdie, Please go to bfdaaa.com to complete an application. June 13, 2026, 5:45 pm

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.NJ Beeper is a handsome boy who is looking for a new home. He is now in a loving NJ foster home Meet Beeper. This little guy is about 3 years old and 15 pounds of sweet, slightly shy charm. We think he’s probably some kind of Rat Terrier mix, give or take a few mystery ingredients, and he’s got those long legs that make him look like he’s always halfway to somewhere important. Beeper is a little reserved when you first meet him, but he doesn’t stay that way for long. Once he decides you’re safe, he warms up fast and shows off his calm, easygoing personality. He seems to be house-trained, is definitely kennel-trained, and overall just feels like a very good boy who’s trying to do the right thing. He came to us as a stray from down south, and he’s been getting along nicely with dogs of all sizes. With his laid-back vibe, we’d also guess he’d do well with cats. If you’re looking for a smaller dog with a gentle heart and a pretty low-key personality, Beeper might be your guy. Beeper is fixed, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. His adoption donation is $500. Adopting an animal is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these animals have been through they deserve a loving, committed home. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 14, 2026, 6:46 am
