Dobby

Fort Lee, NJ

Size

Story

Dobby is a survivor. For six years, he roamed the streets of Pristina, Kosovo—dodging roundups, hunger, and locals who abused strays like him. He lost an eye and half his tail as a result of human cruelty, but he hasn't lost his gentleness. After a 15-hour flight to the U.S., he’s discovering safety for the first time. He let me bathe him on his first night, learned to trust, and now sleeps curled beside me every night. Dobby is fully housetrained, neutered, vaccinated, and gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes. He has warmed up to my cat and is now fully integrated into my little "pack." He follows my older dog’s lead, loves quiet company, and rests deeply—finally able to relax. He’s not high-energy; he’s content with warmth, softness, and love. Dobby deserves a calm home with patient, experienced dog owners.

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.

Meet Lexie – A Sweet Senior Looking for Love Hi everyone! My name is Lexie, and I’m a 9-year-old beauty with plenty of love to give. Don’t let my age fool you—I still enjoy nice walks, car rides, and going on little adventures if you’re up for it! A little about me: • Housebroken & well-mannered: I know my manners and am polite on a leash. • Cuddly (on my terms): Once I feel comfortable, I love to snuggle up—but I also enjoy my own space for naps and quiet time. • Active & fun: Even though I’m a senior, I still have a lot of pep in my step and a big zest for life. Like many seniors, I appreciate balance—affection when I want it and space when I need it. I promise to be a loyal and loving companion to the family who opens their heart to me. If you’d like to meet me, please call Christina at 973-668-7208 to learn more. Lexie may be a senior, but she’s young at heart and ready to bring joy to her forever home.

Lily

Rhodesian Ridgeback Retriever (Unknown Type)

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Lily was born August 1 2015, and came into my life in 2017 through a close friend. In 2019, she survived a major car accident in Rochester, where she was lost in the woods for two weeks before being found—and from then on, I fully adopted her in Buffalo NY. Six years later, she’s still full of energy and spirit, acting most of the time like a playful puppy than a senior dog. I’m now looking for a loving home that can give her the time and attention she deserves in her golden years. A few things to know about her: • She’s a great walker and enjoys meeting people and other animals. • She knows her boundaries and will walk away or pull away if she’s not interested. • She’s very food-motivated and endlessly curious. • She’s a velcro dog—if she could speak it’s “where are WE going?” • She greets you with joy and tail-wagging excitement when you come home. Lily has brought boundless love into my life, and I hope to find her a family who will treasure her just as much as I do if not better.

Story

Great dog. Very well behaved. Perfect for someone who will not interact with other dogs or small children in the house. Her key issue is that she is protective of her house and has attempted to bite children in our house who get scared when they see them. Is also not friendly with other dogs. So perfect fit for someone living with other adults or alone who does not need to go to dog parks etc.

Story

Are you looking for a dog who is equally ready to go out with you on adventures and then come home and snuggle on your lap? Verdi, is your girl. This sweet momma pup was dropped off at a vet office for surgery, but she was so pregnant at the time she went into labor before they could begin. The owner didn't want any of the puppies so a person working at the vet office quickly agreed to foster Verdi and her puppies until they were weaned. Verdi gave birth to 7 beautiful puppies (all adopted). Shortly after their birth, Verdi's owner surrendered her to the foster saying Verdi would be better off. Verdi is a 51 pound black mouth cur mix, who is just over a year old. She is up to date on her vaccinations and was recently spayed. Her foster says she "loves to be loved" - she will climb into your lap and happily accept and reciprocate any and all snuggles. She does have energy so she will do best with an active person/family and would love a place to run. Her mom was a working dog and Verdi seems to have some of those same personality traits. Verdi loves to play with other dogs and she is great with kids - she has currently taken on the role of protector for her fosters' grandkids! Lets find this well deserving girl a forever home! Personality: smart, friendly, playful, affectionate, lapdog, energetic Good with: people of all ages (including kids), and dogs. Cows too (lol)! Estimated date of birth: November 2023 Weight: 51 pounds Medical: vetted, up to date on vaccinations, spayed, microchipped Location: Verdi is currently located with a foster in Texas, but if adopted, will come to the NJ area on our next transport. &#226&#128&#139For more videos of Verdi, check out her YouTube playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmB5-2QLmiJP7C1c1TNeuY17PHg8U-sif If you have any questions please email: friendsforlifeanimalrescue@gmail.com To apply to adopt: https://form.jotform.com/210286667669167 We always need fosters, please join us! https://form.jotform.com/210257395409155 Many other dogs need our help, please consider donating or sponsoring a dog, if possible. 100% of all money received from adoption fees and donations goes directly back to support saving other dogs and cats in need.
