Story
My name is S'mores. I am about 10 months old and 55 lbs. My poundage doesn't translate to the way I look! You will be surprised, I am not that big! I am also all filled out. I am a gorgeous almost painted brindle. My breed mix? Ridgeback? Cur? Hound? Terrier? We aren't totally sure but I am a handsome man. I am a very sweet and gentle dog. My most favorite thing in the world? Kids. Just like my brother Red, who was adopted recently, kiddos just make me feel good. I am the most trusting of the smaller humans at first. In my first foster home, I lived with young children and was very attached to them. In my NJ foster home, I also love my older kids. I am great with dogs too. I actually would prefer that my next home have a dog buddy in it. It's not that I don't adore my humans but the other canine will give me a little confidence to continue to learn about how good life can be! I can be hesitant with new sounds and sights. If I see a trash truck on a walk, I might be a little concerned but we have found that my dog friends keep me moving! I am housebroken and crate trained; although, I have basically aged out of the crate. I will need a patient family that is willing to let me go at my own pace and provide positivity and love on the way. A fenced in yard is required; I love to romp and run in my secured area. My leash walking is good; when I see something that gives me pause - that's when my dog buddy jumps in to let me know the walk can proceed! When you meet me, you will fall in love. I am located in NJ. Here is a link to the application if you are interested in me! https://www.zivadogrescue.org/adoptable-dogs

Story
This is JULIAN. He is one year and nine months old and 25 pounds as of December 23, 2024. He is currently being fostered with many dogs and cats and he’s amazing. We think he is a Rhodesian Ridgeback mix. That’s our best guess! Julian is one of four siblings. His mom was found pregnant as a stray. Everyone has been adopted ~ mom and his three sisters. He’s been waiting for a forever home for over a year now. He’s ready to go home with you! His foster mom says he’s sweet, loving, and affectionate ~ he’s perfect!! JULIAN is playful and a ball of total love. He’s curious and willing to learn. He is good with everyone, dogs and cats. He will be a great exercise partner. He may not be winning any fetch awards, but he will definitely win over your heart with his mad snuggling skills. If a night of snack, snuggling and sitcoms is your thing – JULIAN may be a perfect match. If you feel that JULiAN is a good fit for you/your family, please complete an application from our site, miraclesforsatosrescue.org FOR IMMEDIATE CONSIDERATION PLEASE COMPLETE AN APPLICATION! Applications must be complete and considered. https://www.miraclesforsatosrescue.org/adoption-foster-application Please then email the application back to us at miraclesforsatosrescue@gmail.com ---------------------------------------- PLEASE READ: This dog is currently located in Puerto Rico. Once an adopter is approved, we transport to New York/New Jersey! We adopt out of state as long as you are ok with picking up your dog in NY/NJ. We strive for our dogs to be adopted into the right home. The best fit for the dog is our priority. We ask that you make sure if interested in a puppy or high energy breed that you are ready for this time consuming/ daily endeavor and have patience as this is a long term commitment (could be 15+ years). In addition we cannot guarantee the breed of any dog or expected adult size of puppy. Please also note that any dog that is "house trained" will still need patience in a new home, new people and new schedule. Please be ready to house train ANY dog you adopt! Thank you for understanding.

🚨 URGENT: SENIOR SOUL SIRE NEEDS A HERO—NOW 🚨 At 11 years old, Sire should be safe… not at risk of losing everything he’s ever known. This gentle, loyal boy has spent his entire life with one person—since he was just a tiny puppy. And now, through no fault of his own, he’s about to be left with nowhere to go. His owner is facing a life crisis—losing his job and needing to relocate to care for her sick mother… to a place where dogs are not allowed. 💔 And Sire… will have no one. ⸻ Meet Sire 🐾 • 11 years old | ~90 lbs • Rhodesian Ridgeback mix • Fully vaccinated • Located in Ewing, NJ ⸻ ✨ THE KIND OF DOG EVERYONE DREAMS OF Sire is the definition of easy, gentle, and loyal. ✔️ Dog friendly – truly a pushover ✔️ Cat friendly – has lived peacefully with cats ✔️ Kid friendly – gentle and patient ✔️ Housebroken & crate trained (his crate is his safe space ❤️) ✔️ Calm, quiet, well-mannered ✔️ Not destructive at all He doesn’t ask for much—just a soft place to land and someone to love. ⸻ 💔 A SWEET SENIOR WHO DESERVES PEACE Sire has some minor arthritis (managed with supplements) and allergies (on prescription food), but overall he is a low-maintenance, easy companion. He’s past the chaos. Past the puppy stage. He just wants to be near you… and feel safe again. ⸻ 😭 PLEASE DON’T LET HIM END UP IN A SHELTER An 11-year-old dog will not understand why his whole world disappeared. The stress alone could break him. He has done everything right his whole life. Now he needs someone to do right by him. ⸻ 🙏 BE HIS HERO Open your home to a dog who will quietly love you with everything he has left. Sire doesn’t need perfect. He just needs you.

🚨 URGENT – Carmello Is Running Out of Time 🚨 Carmello didn’t ask for any of this. He was found as a stray just two months ago and given a chance — but now, through no fault of his own, his current owner can no longer keep him safely contained and he is heading to a kill shelter unless help comes fast. This handsome boy deserves so much better. Carmello is good with other dogs and friendly with strangers. He has a sweet, easygoing personality and just wants a place where he can feel safe and stay forever. Like so many dogs, he simply needs the right environment and someone willing to give him stability. 💔 Time is short. Once he enters the shelter system, his future becomes uncertain. ✨ Please help Carmello avoid losing his life over circumstances he can’t control. He doesn’t need perfection… just a chance. PLEASE TEXT KAREN 4136298152
