Story
To know Jupiter is to be loved by her. This 4-year-old Akita mix has a soul full of devotion. She bonds deeply with her people and looks at you like you hung the moon. Due to a severe personal medical crisis, I can no longer give her the care she deserves. Jupiter is a “Queen Bee” who needs to be the only pet and in an adult-only home. She prefers not to share her space with other animals or small children. She has a tender heart and struggles with separation anxiety when crated or left alone too long. She needs a home where someone is around often (work-from-home or retired) and can provide plenty of opportunities to go outside for potty breaks. She thrives on routine and specific attention. If you are looking for a loyal, loving shadow to be the center of your world, Jupiter is waiting for you. She deserves a soft place to land where she can be the priority. Please contact me to meet this special girl.

Story
Akio's Story Meet Akio! Akio is a handsome 1-year-old Akita/Husky mix who came to us as a stray and is now ready to find his forever home. Weighing in at 73 lbs, this big guy has the looks—and the potential—to be an amazing companion. Akio likely spent much of his life outdoors, so he’s still learning some of the basics of indoor living. He pulls a bit on the leash and will benefit from continued socialization with people, but he’s already shown that he gets along well with other dogs and seems to do just fine with cats, too. He’ll need some guidance with housetraining and basic manners, but with consistency, patience, and positive training, Akio should thrive. He’s a young dog with lots of room to grow and would do best with an experienced adopter ready to help him learn and build confidence. If you’re looking for a loyal, striking dog and are excited to help one blossom, Akio is ready to meet you! 🐾 Please apply for Akio at https://www.gloucestercountynj.gov/FormCenter/Animal-Shelter-5/PreAdoption-Application-50

Story
Twinkle lived at an Amish Farm in the house; however, the children let her outside and she killed the chickens. So very high prey drive. She loves children, playing in the yard and car rides. She is shy with new people at first but when she warms up to you, you will have companion for life. She knows basic commands and walks well on a leash. Twinkle is located at our Texas Ranch.

Story
She is a beautiful 12-week-old golden-tan puppy with a soft, fluffy coat and the sweetest brown eyes. Her warm honey coloring with slightly darker shading on her head makes her truly stand out. She is affectionate, gentle, and very people-oriented — she loves sitting close, watching you, and being included in whatever you’re doing. Like any young puppy, she’s curious, playful, and still learning about the world around her. I’m looking for a loving and stable home that has the time, patience, and commitment to continue her training and give her the attention she deserves. She would thrive with someone who can provide consistency, daily playtime, and companionship. In the right home, she has so much potential to grow into a loyal, kind, and devoted lifelong companion.

Story
Pochi was originally rescued by a foster and then adopted by us, he’s been up and down the east coast. He’s super playful and energetic, definitely a good adventure partner. He’s roughly two years old, loves snow, not a fan of rain and not a picky eater. The only reason for rehoming is that our senior dog never adapted to having a brother and it severely limits everyone’s time and space. Pochi loves other dogs but hasn’t lived in close quarters with many people or animals in a while so it would take some getting used to and proper introductions. He can be standoffish with new people and over excitable with new dogs so he’ll need supervision and guidance. He would do best with one or two people who are willing to give home the space to run and play to his hearts desires. He’s crate trained and currently sleeps in the crate at night. And for those who are curious- he’s an Aries :)
