Bitsy, 2-3 yrs Male Yorkie / Yorkshire Terrier
Mix
|
|
|
Adopted
Bitsy is a 3 year old male Yorkie who will be neutered prior to adoption. He was used for breeding by his former owner, but was allowed to run free and was in danger of being hit by a car. He is sweet and let all our volunteers handle him with no problem. He is very friendly and outgoing. He's also a bit of an escape artist so needs to be leashed or in a very securely fenced in yard. He is up to date with shots.

Dotty, 6-7 years old Female Shih Tzu
|

|
|
Adopted
Dotty is an adorable black and white pure bred female shihtzu, small in stature (10 lbs) and a total love!
The vet tells us she's "a young, 9 years old" and says she is probably a 6-7 yr old, and has a very strong heart, but because she her eyes and teeth were not given the proper attention (a dental has been done since we took her in) and her dry eye not treated, she built up scar tissue that resulted in the loss of vision in her left eye...so they age her according to teeth and eyes. She often acts like a puppy and runs around with happiness and excitement, bounds up the deck stairs coming in from outside, and just wants to be nearby on the floor or in a comfy doggie bed.
Dotty will need eye medication 2x daily in her eyes for the rest of her life, so we have listed her as "special needs". She is otherwise a healthy and very happy little girl whose tail is almost always wagging.
Dotty was given up by her last owners because they had to move
Dotty is SWEET as can be, and will be a wonderful companion. We are looking for a special someone that will be willing to care for Dotty's dry eye and cherish her as she deserves. Dotty would prefer to be in an quiet environment.
We're looking for a lifetime commitment for Dotty, we want her to go to her forever home and not worry about having to leave her home ever again.

Garrett, 18 mons Male Border Collie
Mix
|
|
|
Adopted
Garrett is a neutered male Border Collie mix who is eighteen months old. He loves to swim and plays great with other dogs. He was raised with kids ages 10 and 12 and was very gentle with them. He would play with dogs of all sizes does well. Like a typical Border Collie, he has herding instincts and being put on a run every day made him very frustrated. He needs someone who understands the border collie personality and who has time to train him using positive reinforcement training, clicker preferred. He's currently doing fabulous in his foster home playing with the resident dog. He loves the pool. He would probably do best in a household with another dog or with an active person who has the time to exercise him. He will be extremely loyal and a great companion to someone who has the time.

|
|
Adopted
Hans is a six year old male German Shepherd who was owned by a single guy,
and who was instrumental in saving his mother's life when she suffered a
fall. He is an extremely smart dog who bonds very closely to his people. We
are looking for an adopter with large breed experience as he can be
protective on leash, like many shepherds. Someone who works full time is
okay as he will never have an accident in the house and will never touch
your things. He is just so good. He understands many commands and can
almost read your mind. More than one of his recent caretakers has said that
he is almost human.

Spike, 6 mons Male Beagle
/ Coonhound
Mix
|
|
|
Adopted
Spike is 23 pounds of pure joy. He loves to play with other dogs and follows his foster mom around the house, quietly staying by her side when she stays in one spot long enough. Unfortunately, Spike has spent most of his life in a New Jersey shelter, adopted as a very young puppy he was returned for no stated reason, the second time he was adopted he was returned because of typical 5 month old puppy behavior. For the most part this occurred after he was left alone all day, 5 days a week; he was never brought to obedience classes. After only a few days in his foster home his behavior has already improved. Please be an at home or work at home person who has the time to provide Spike with the attention and training that he deserves.
Spike was cat tested wiith someone holding a cat that is used to dogs, Spike went up to the cat wagging his tail, sniffed her face and then started cleaning the cat's ears.

Tuesday, 5 yrs old Male Labrador Retriever
Mix
|
|
|
Adopted
Tuesday, almost 5 yrs old, is a delightful pooch---smart, loyal,
stick-to-your-side, playful little love bug of a pup. He loves to run and
swim, plays well with other dogs but laid back/ quiet in the house. He is
definitely the alpha in a group, so would be a great "only"
dog in a household. Just 30 lbs of canine dynamo, Tuesday is fully
trained, great in the car, no food issues, barks to alert you to
visitors, likes all people young and old, but would be best placed in a home
with kids 10 and up.
