Story
BIG GIRL. BIG HEART. BIG LOVE TO GIVE. Please meet Millie — and trust us, this beautiful girl is impossible not to love!  At just about 10 months old, Millie is already a stunning 75-pound American Bully/Akita mix with the sweetest smile and a personality that shines. She is confident, fun, affectionate, and has that special “everyone is my friend” kind of energy. Millie came to us from a local shelter, and we can’t help but wonder what happened that landed this amazing girl there. She seems a little confused about why she lost her home, but she hasn’t lost her ability to love. ❤️ She’s ready to turn the page and find the family who will see what we see — a wonderful dog with so much potential. This big girl is looking for a family who understands that great dogs need guidance, exercise, and continued training. Millie is young, strong, and full of life, so she’ll thrive with an active family ready to help her become the best version of herself. A home with older children would be the best fit. Millie has been enjoying pack walks and has been completely unfazed by the other dogs around her. We’re still learning about her dog and cat compatibility, but we’re pretty sure we caught her sneaking a quick “hello kiss” through her kennel door to our resident hunk, Roscoe.  If you’ve been waiting for a big, beautiful, loyal companion with a goofy smile and a heart to match her size… Millie may be your girl.  Let’s help Millie find the forever home she has been waiting for. Interested in adopting Millie? Apply today at bfdaaa.com at Best Friend Dog and Animal Adoption Inc, in Cranford, N. J. September 28, 2026, 6:19 pm

Story
✅ Currently in South Korea 💜 Available to fly to JFK & EWR Meet Geondam! 🐻 💙 Name: Geondam 💙 Gender: Male 💙 Age: Estimated 5 years old (Born in April 2020) 💙 Weight: 10 kg / 22.05 lb 💙 Adogs News Account: @_adogs_ 1️⃣ Health Condition * Neutered. 2️⃣ Rescue Story * Geondam was once on the first euthanasia list at the Gimje City Shelter. When rescuers first saw him, he was shivering in the corner of a cage, terrified of human touch. We couldn't give up on him, so he was rescued just in time to give him a second chance at life. 3️⃣ Basic Information * With People: Is very shy and takes a long time to open up to new people. Needs a patient family who can wait for him to feel safe. * With Dogs: Gets along very well with his friends at our center. * With Cats: Tends to chase them, so caution is required. * Separation Anxiety: Unknown because he currently lives in a group setting at our center. * Potty Training: Unknown, but he currently prefers outdoor potty breaks. * Walks: Showed great walking skills during his time at the training center. * Hygiene: Was very well-behaved during grooming and hygiene care at the training center. * Because he is fearful, he may try to nip if forced into something. A gentle approach is essential. * Absolutely loves treats! * Is still scared of human touch. Needs time to learn that hands are for love, not for fear.
