 | Rescue Me ID: 14-04-07-00164Kane (male)
We got this dog from our cousin in December 2013 who rescued it. Since having the dog, my husband got a new job and can no longer take care of him like he used to, and I am pregnant which also makes it hard for me since he is a strong, large dog; so we are looking for someone who can give him a good home and give him the time and attention he deserves. He is good with our kids and smaller female dog. He will be 2 years old in September and is a mix of a pit bull, blue heeler, and collie. He is not neutered and is up to date with his shots which he received in Pennsylvania where we got him. Please contact me if you can help, thanks! Hudson County Bayonne, NJ 07002 MAP IT!

 | Animal ID: 122873Gina (female)
Gina is a cute, little, young pit mix. She has a unique chocolate colored coat. Gina was surrendered by her owners because they had 'too many pets'. This girl is so people focused and all she did through the evaluation was go belly up so we could rub it. While getting her belly rubbed she wears the sweetest smile. She walks a bit ahead of herself on lead, but with a little training she could be walking like a pro in no time. Gina is playful, but settles nicely and she loves to be touched all over. This sweetheart didn't have the foggiest idea of what a toy or the rawhide was for. Gina shares her food dish nicely and takes treats so gently. ...

 | Animal ID: 123815Face (male)
Most unusual name for a dog but he came with it, he is a recent owner surrender. Handsome boy that has a very playful spirit in him. His owner must have played tug of war with him cause he loves it and even does the play growl (not to be confused with a real growl), it gives him great pleasure to hang on to a toy. Not that interested in a raw hide, his food test was fine. He is socialable and friendly, just too enthusiastic in his play for young kids and other dogs. He's a play man.

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-03-30-00159 (male)
Tucker is a 3 year old Blue Nose Pure Breed Pit Bull. He is an outgoing playful and loving dog. He needs room to run and play, when given the play time he settles down quickly. He loves to greet you at the door and sometimes gets too excited but nothing a little more effort in training can't take care of. He loves to be cuddled and deserves a lot of attention and snuggles. He is good with adults but does not realize his weight or energy around children and would probably be best in a home without children. Tucker has some friends but is the dominant dog and cats we are unsure of. Sussex County Hamburg, NJ MAP IT!

I bet I would make a great addition to a multi-dog household. In my previous home I lived with a young child and a cat. I am currently living in a foster home with a kind hearted gentleman that took me in to prevent me from being surrendered to a high kill shelter. I am a higher energy doggie. I love to bounce around, play fetch, go on long walks, and get my sillies out. My exuberance might make me a bit much for families with small children, but I would do great with bigger kids (and, of course, adults!). In fact, I would be a wonderful partner for an active human companion! I pull a bit on my leash when I am excited, but that's just because I'm cooped up much of the day now. With regular exercise, I'll be walking like a show dog in no time. I do jump up when I'm excited or to greet new friends, but I listen super well and correct easily. I can even sit on command! I am especially treat motivated and obedient, so it's easy to teach me anything new. I am a great student! Please set-up a meet and greet soon! I would love to spend my days being silly and loving with you. If that sounds like fun, call the number below. . Thanks for reading all about me! I hope to meet you soon!

Jaime doesn't like to be away from his people as he is working with some separation anxiety, but we've already seen improvement with that.

Dallas is a loving, loyal boy with a lot of energy. He needs room to run and someone that has time to train him and walk him. He thinks he is a lap dog and loves to snuggle in bed. He needs love and attention. He gets along with other dogs but is spoiled and would love all of the attention. He will be your best friend, he just needs someone that has the time and energy for him. He can be a big baby but likes to think he is tough. He is the sweetest boy in the world. I want to find him someone that loves him and will commit to the rest of his life.

Summer can be handled all over and she loves the warm human touch. She shares the toys, took the raw hide and gently released it when asked and was a good girl by the food bowl.

Mr. T has a very sad story to tell. He was led into the shelter by a little 9 year old girl, who was going to the homeless shelter with her family.

As you would suspect, being without his pal all alone in the shelter, he is starved for love & affection. He wants to be back with his family but, in their situation, they won't be able to come back for him. The little girl taught him how to sit for a treat & other commands.

He was adopted by us last month and we just found out I am 3 months pregnant and don't feel we can give him the proper love and attention he will need through out the pregnancy and when the baby is born. He is great with kids and would prefer a family home and a fenced in yard so he can run around. We have a 18 month old daughter that loves him to death. He is very gentle with her yet knows how to rough house and play with the adults. He does need leash training ... (Read More)because he likes to pull. With in the past month we have taught him sit, stay, come, back up, and drop it. He is good with cats and dogs, just likes to get in their bubble sometimes.

Kayla was rescued from a high kill shelter 5 years ago...it appeared she was neglected/abused and was desperate for human contact gentleness and love. When we rescued her, it was only my husband and I (as well as our other male dog). Now, several years later... our home has become hectic with children and Kayla is becoming more nervous with the nonstop activity and busyness. We don't want to bring her to shelter...we all know what happens there. She is good with all people but I wouldn't suggest a home with kids running around. She needs a bachelor/bachelorette pad or a couple and preferably without any other animals because she is ... (Read More)calmer that way. She is a WONDERFUL LOYAL companion and LOVES to snuggle at night when she sleeps. Shes awesome to walk on a leash...(she'll walk for days), no food aggression at all, EXCELLENT watch dog, very protective of her loved ones. Its evident she did not have good, if that any, structure/basic training prior to us rescuing her, so she could be kind of awkward at times...but not viscious. She adapts very easily, as long as she is able to be a calm enviorment. If you want to lay on the couch for 48 hours, her head will be on your lap, snoring, the entire 48 hours with you. When she meets new people, she'll bark as you approach (as with any dog) but thats all it is ...a bark. Right away she'll try to jump up on you to get you to pet her head and show her attention. Once you do that...shes a happy girl. She eats ANYTHING...but preferebly wet dog food. We feed her a pedigree can a night mixed with 1-2 cups of pedigree dry food. We also give her Milkbone cookies for a treats eward but she will eat anything. She has golden blonde hair, big pointy 'Chihuahua-like' ears and beautiful eyes. When we first rescued her, all the people involved with my rescue nick-named her the 'Angelina Jolie of dogs'....she even was the 'spokes model' of my very own non-profit Pit Bull Rescue organization that I co-founded many years back. With that being said, you could imagine how hard this is for me to find another home for her....but I have to do what is best for her well-being. After the rough life she had in the past, she deserves a better life. She knows basic commands like sit, paw, etc. Shes about 70 lbs, if that. I will weigh her to get her exact weight when I bring her to her Vets appointment to make sure she has an updated bill of health prior to her going into her new home. Besides treating her with kindness and love, the only request that I have is that we could maybe keep in touch with her new Mom or Dad once in a blue moon just to get updates on how she is since she is such a huge part of our family. PLEASE give Kayla a chance....you wont regret it! (Less) Middlesex County Sayreville, NJ MAP IT!

Mocha is a recent resident of the shelter. She is very young and is seeking a active family that will love to take her for walks perhaps jog with her cause she certainly has the energy. She released the raw hide when asked no problem, her food test was good. Beautiful looking pit in excellent condition. But don't give her any soft toys or they are history. Good disposition with people. Her kennel care taker reports she is not good with other dogs. So a one dog family would be needed for her. High energy dog.

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-01-07-00133Smokey (male)
Smokey is a 3-year-old brown brindle pitbull mix. He is a healthy 60 pound dog who enjoys playing catch, digging holes and licking faces. He was originally rescued as a puppy from an owner that was breeding dogs for fighting. As a result, he is slow to warm up to new people and animals and requires monitoring until comfortable with other pets. He currently lives with another dog amicably and in the past also lived with a cat and toddler. He is very energetic and anxious but housebroken and follows commands. He is somewhat dominant and jealous/protective of those he loves. As I am unable to physically care for him any longer if he is not ... (Read More)adopted soon he will have to be euthanized. Is there someone willing to provide a forever home for this sweet dog who has had a rough life through no fault of his own? (Less) Monmouth County Hazlet, NJ MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 13-12-30-00220Whiskey (male)
Whiskey is a handsome 1-year old pit bull mix puppy who has had everything short of a normal puppyhood so far! This wiggle butt, constant tail-wagger was found roaming on the streets in Philadelphia. Unfortunately, he had been hit by a car and was in severe need of emergency medical care. Whiskey's entire body was covered in asphalt burns and open wounds. His front leg was just dangling and he was unable to put any weight on it. He was just about to be euthanized due to his injuries before one of our volunteers met him and offered to take him into our care. Despite the pain he was in, Whiskey would not stop kissing all of our ... (Read More)volunteers and vet staff. He was brought straight to our veterinary office to get the care he so desperately needed. By some miracle, there were no breaks to any of the bones in his front leg, just severe damage to one of his ligaments. It was torn out of place and needed to be reconstructed. Whiskey had his surgery and has been released from the veterinary office and is living in a foster home with other dogs. He enjoying playing with his foster brothers and really loves to sit in any lap for kisses and petting. Whiskey has about 80% mobility with his leg, but that doesn't hold him back from rough-housing with the best of them!! He is a super sweet puppy, kissing everyone he meets and constantly wiggling for more affection. He does well with other dogs and seems to be good with cats too, just excited like a normal pup. Whiskey is crate trained, house trained and is ready and waiting for his forever family, so if you're looking for a special pup, he's your man! (Less) Pet Rescue of Mercer, Inc.

Buddy has been waiting far too long for his forever home - if you're an active family looking for a smart dog, contact us to arrange a meeting! Buddy is a stunningly handsome 1.5 year old yellow lab/pit bull mix looking for his forever home. He's a true all American - he was born on July 4, 2012. He was surrendered to the shelter when my owners could no longer care for me. He is now in a foster home and am waiting for my forever family to find me. He is neutered, up to date on shots and in great health. He is completely housebroken and crate trained. I know sit, paw and down and is working on other commands. I am extremely intelligent ... (Read More)and loves to work. He would make an excellent walking/jogging buddy. He currently walks 3 miles daily but would love to go further if you're up for it. He loves to run and play with his foster brothers and also loves to lay down with his bone next to you on the couch. He is very friendly and get along well with other dogs (just no cats!). His excitement would probably not be suitable for an older dog, but he would do really well in a home with another young, active dog. He wouldn't mind being your only child either! Buddy is definitely one of a kind, anyone who adopts this gem will have a 'Buddy' for life! (Less) Pet Rescue of Mercer, Inc. Mercer County Hamilton, NJ MAP IT!

LOU ONLY HAS A FEW YEARS LEFT IN HER...WON'T YOU MAKE HER FINAL YEARS HAPPY? Lou has been with 11th hour rescue (www.ehrdogs.org) since 2010. Her family contacted 11th hour when they had a house fire and asked if we could take Lou temporarily until they got back on their feet. Four years later, Lou is still at our kennel and still waiting for her family. Lou is now 11 years old, has bad arthritis, and is looking for a home where she could be comfortable and rest her weary bones. Her ideal home would be a quiet home with a fenced in yard and no other pets. Due to her arthritis she tends to be sensitive in her back area so ideally a home ...

Lou is very loyal to those she loves and loves being close to them. Please give this senior girl a home.

This precious little Pit was locked in a crate, abandoned and left to starve and eventually die in the heat. That is where Mayor Booker and the Newark police found her. She was skin and bones when she was brought to our shelter, but has since filled out and gained trust & love for the people she meets. She now comes to the kennel door ready to greet visitors. She has learned some basic commands and has developed a sweet natured personality over the past few months. With a little correction, Candy will walk well on the lead. She takes treats very gently from your hand and has no issues sharing her food or toys. Candy is much prettier in ... (Read More)person and her true self is now ready to be seen and shared. Candy even prefers using the grass outside to relieve herself rather than in her kennel. Candy gets along well with people but doesn't care for most dogs and is way too interested in kitties. If you are looking for a truly devoted and affectionate lady Candy is your girl. ***Evaluations are an assessment of the animals in a controlled environment by experienced dog handlers.

Hey, check out my pix! I have the most unique look, don't I! I a€™m kind of small, with a beautiful short white coat, and big fun, pink ears! I like walking outside and am an active guy; I do need some training since I still have many puppy qualities . The nice volunteers at the shelter are helping me learn my leash manners, so if you could continue my training with a basic obedience course, that would really help me. I would do best in an active home with kids over age 10 that understand how to behave with an energetic dog- no small kids please. I am a very quick learner and love to play fetch! In fact, I love it so much you can ... (Read More)now use the ball as a training reward. I will just about anything for that ball! If you have an active family and can give me the structure that training provides, along with lots of exercise (and 'fetch' games!) then why not come over and see me.

| PIease Read Before Adopting a Pit Bull in New Jersey | |||||||||
Pit Bull Dogs can make good pets in New Jersey if they match your IifestyIe. The American Pit Bull Terrier is a powerful dog with an undeserved reputation for inherent viciousness. A Pit Bull that receives attention, firm training, and thorough socialization makes a wonderful family guardian that is trustworthy with children. Pit Bulls need committed, experienced owners that exude leadership. Pit Bulls excel at high level obedience with proper training. Pit Bulls have been bred for dog fights, and unfortunately a dog that is abused, neglected, or whose instinctive aggression is encouraged, can become hostile and dangerous. Pit Bulls can adapt to apartment life with enough exercise.
