Story
Meet Rainey, a delightful 15-month-old Rat Terrier with a heart full of love and a past that makes her story even more endearing. Rainey is a gentle soul, despite her rough start. Dumped at a vet in Mississippi at just 8 months old and diagnosed with heartworms, she has since made a full recovery and is now clear, ready to bring joy and warmth to her forever home. Rainey may have a quiet and independent side, often found lounging like a true couch potato, but she is also incredibly friendly and playful. She loves nothing more than receiving sweet kisses and engaging in fun games with her humans. Rainey’s gentle nature makes her excellent with other dogs, ensuring she’ll fit right in with your furry family members. Currently in Mississippi, Rainey is eager to start her journey to New Jersey with a foster-to-adopt commitment. For an adoption/donation fee of just $300, which covers her vet visit for a health certificate and crate fee for her travel to NJ, Rainey can become the awesome addition your family has been waiting for. If you’re ready to fill your home with love, laughter, and a touch of Rainey’s unique charm, fill out an application today.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hermione is with our partner rescue down south and can come to NJ if an approved foster or adopter steps up for her.   Three Little Heartstealers  Meet Katniss, Thora, and Hermione—the last three puppies waiting for homes from a litter dumped in a rural town. Their beginning wasn’t fair, but these girls are all about happy endings! At around 14 weeks old, they have a very busy schedule: play, love, nap… and repeat.  They’re rambunctious, silly, loving, and loyal, with plenty of puppy shenanigans and snuggles to share. Now each girl just needs a family to grow up with—and love with her whole heart. Looking for a little more laughter, love, and adorable chaos? One of these sweet girls could be your match!    The puppies will be fixed and microchipped prior to arrival in NJ. They are up to date on age appropriate vaccines. Their adoption donation is $600.   Adopting a dog 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 dogs have been through, they each deserve a loving, committed home.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Gibson is with our rescue partner in Louisiana and can come to NJ with an approved foster or adopter. We do offer foster-to-adopt trials for approved adopters.   Gibson, believed to be a Jack Russell Terrier mix, is a little sidekick with a big personality! He and his buddy Bramble, who is also available for adoption, were found together as strays. Now, this sweet boy is more than ready to trade his wandering days for a forever home of his own.   Gibson may take a minute to feel comfortable with new people, but once he does, you’ll see that he is outgoing, affectionate, and full of fun. He enjoys any time spent in the yard, is always happy to go on a nice leash walk, and loves to alternate between zoomies and nap time. Gibson has life all figured out!   Gibson is house-trained, friendly with kids and other dogs, and has shown no food or toy aggression. He’s really just a good boy waiting for someone to give him the safe, loving home he deserves! If you’re looking for a compact adventure buddy and a professional nap companion, Gibson may be your guy.    Gibson is fixed, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccines. He tested positive for heart worm and will need treatment when he comes to NJ, which will require two trips to our vet in Barnegat followed by a low-activity rest period. 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 animal have been through they deserve a loving, committed home.
