Story

Meet Daisy! This sweet 2-year-old Bully mix is full of love, energy, and playful spirit. Daisy’s favorite hobbies include showering her humans with affection and chasing after her toys with a big, goofy grin. What makes Daisy special? • Personality: Energetic, affectionate, and eager to please • Skills: Potty trained and knows basic commands like sit, stay, down, and come • Social: Great with other animals and children (just be mindful—she does jump when excited!) • Sharing is caring: She’s happy to share food and toys • Toy tester: Prefers durable toys—Kong-style recommended! What she’s working on: Daisy is learning to control her enthusiastic jumping. She already understands it’s not ideal and is making progress with guidance. Ideal home: Daisy would thrive in an active home with loving humans and maybe some furry or human siblings to play with. She just needs a bit of structure, a lot of love, and someone who appreciates her joyful spirit. http://www.coldnosewarmheart.org/dog-application.html @cnwhnj @coldnosewarmheartnj

Story

Petunia (foster mom calls her Maggie) 1-2 Years Old, Female Pit Mix Maggie is a sweet, energetic, and lovable pit mix who has quickly become a joy to be around. She knows several commands, is eager to please, and learns quickly. With her playful and funny personality, Maggie loves belly rubs and is always ready for some fun. Once she gets her energy out, she becomes calm, affectionate, and will happily curl up in your lap for a nap—currently, she’s dreaming away! Maggie is feeling much better now (no more UTI!), and she’s back to enjoying her walks. She trots along with confidence, though she’s still very strong—especially when she spots a squirrel or deer! She’s a terrier at heart, and her strong instincts mean I have to hold onto her leash with both hands when she’s ready to give chase. When she gets the zoomies, she’s all about hopping, leaping, and jumping with excitement. Maggie loves people and greets them with an enthusiasm that’s truly heartwarming. If you’re interested in meeting Maggie, she will be at the adoption event in Newton next weekend 4/13. Come say hi and see her joyful energy firsthand!

Andre Lizman

Pit Bull Terrier

Male

Rockaway, NJ

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Andre is a 5-year-old, 59 pound bundle of love who was found under heartbreaking circumstances, left with a note from his owner explaining they could no longer care for him due to homelessness. Despite this, Andre 's spirit remains bright and full of love. He is incredibly sweet, a champion cuddler, and has a 1,000-watt smile that lights up the room. He'll keep you laughing with his adorable antics, and he loves getting under a blanket and twirling it into a cozy ball around him. Andre is dog-friendly, people-friendly, and walks beautifully on a leash. He's quickly learning commands and loves showing off his "sit" and "paw." He loves going on walks and enjoying occasional zoomies in the yard but is just as happy settling down for some relaxation. Andre is house-trained, completely non-destructive, and an all-around easygoing companion. His ideal home would have a work-from-home companion or another dog for company. He has suffered heartbreak after losing his owner, who clearly loved him, and we want to honor that love by finding him the best possible home. March 12, 2025, 1:16 pm
