Dino loves his toys and would love to be adopted into a family with either a human or furry sibling to play with. He really liked meeting Veronica and did well with her in playgroup, so he is at least female dog friendly!!

 | Animal ID: 120939Ebony (male)
Ebony is kenneled in the back of the shelter isle and being so dark, I hardly noticed her. She is a well-built Pit/Lab that could be one attractive girl with some TLC & a spa day. She is a strong girl who pulls a bit on the lead but she is controllable. She is playful and wanted to play with the toys. She has fine eating habits. She likes to engage you in some socializing and you can handle her all over. She's a little chubby due to our all you can eat buffet. She can definitely afford to lose about 5 or 6 lbs. With some long walks, love and patience, Ebony would surely blossom. Associated Humane Societies Essex County Newark, NJ MAP IT!

Capone is a good sized 11 month old young boy. It's very hard for him to be in a kennel as he has so much puppy energy. He bunks with another dog and they seem to get along well.

He does need some puppy training as he is very high energy and may be too much for smaller children. An adult home would be best for this boy. **Evaluations are an assessment of the animals in a controlled environment by experienced dog handlers. Please use ...

 | Animal ID: 118670Apollo (male)
Since he was a recent owner surrender, it's obvious that Apollo is missing his home! While he is friendly with people and seemed fine with the passing dogs, he seems more comfortable being inside rather than facing the commotion of the outside world. He was frightened when we put him on the lead to evaluate him. When we came over to comfort him he was fine. He trusts people but things outside like the big flying flag over us kind of startled him. He is sweet and affectionate, calm and seemed like a nice boy. No resource or food aggression. He's just a big baby even though he is 3. I'm sure if he was introduced to all the new things in ... (Read More)this big world he would be fine with them. No cats though he was way too interested in them. Nice boy. ***Evaluations are an assessment of the animals in a controlled environment by experienced dog handlers. Please use these as a guide not as a guarantee of an animals permanent personality/behaviors. These are animals and may react differently in new environments and with new 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. Take a look at my video and see how much fun we could have. So please ask to see Troy with the big ears when you visit. Troy is a member of our Pooch With Perks Program!

Hi! My name is Leo... I'm a 2 year old Pitt Bull Terrier that needs a new home! When my family saved me almost a year and a half ago they weren't told that, well, me and cats, we DO NOT get along. My family has TWO cats (14 and 12) and they really tried to make us all work together, but we just don't mix! I'm a playful dog, I love to run and play, I like other dogs like my brother Lynx, he's a golden retriever! My parents say that I shouldn't be around cats and since they don't know if I'm good with the little kids, they would prefer me to go to a home without little ones! I'm a great protector and I LOVE to snuggle. I may be a big dog, but ... (Read More)sometimes I act like a toy poodle! My family says I need a large yard (preferably fenced in) so I can run and play. I'm neutered and have ALL my shots! I even have a fancy GPS chip in me so if I run away, my new family can find me. My family feels sad that they need to find me a home but they are happy that I may find the family that I will spend the rest of my life with..... (Less) Somerset County Skillman, NJ MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 13-06-23-00322Dolly (female)
I rescued Dolly from a kill shelter in Southern New Jersey in mid May 2013, she only had a few weeks left to live. She came in as a stray off the street and had a litter of pups. Dolly is in great health except for being slightly under weight from living off the street and is extremely loving. She wants to be around people and will follow you everywhere. We love taking her to the parks since everybody is always complementing her beauty. However, my older male is not happy having her around and its constantly attacking her. He has made the house extremely unsafe for multiple dogs to live together. I have had trainers come over and they agree ... (Read More)that he is snapping without warning. We feel its safest, and best for the dogs to be separated and a new home found for Dolly. Shelters are not an option for us so we are reaching out to see if anyway has an extra spot in their family for a beautiful young and fun pit mix. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Juliet is a loving dog who lives to please people. She knows her basic obedience commands. She is playful but versatile. She can be active and chase a tennis ball or basketball around the yard (the bigger the ball the better :) ) or she can be a couch potato and sit by your side for a hardcore cuddling session. She loves to travel in the car and is an extremely well behaved co-pilot. She knows the difference between right and wrong and can be easily corrected. People of all sizes are no problem at all and she loves the kids. She's a big personality in a manageable package and bringing her in to your home will change your life for the ... (Read More)better and give her a chance at a life that she is extremely deserving of. Juliet is a pocket pittie and is only 35lbs. She prefers humans over dogs or cats and should be the only pet. Juliet was found as a stray locally. She was afraid and ended up running up onto someone's roof. Despite being terrified, she was so hungry that she willingly took food and allowed animal control to take her in. We saw Juliet on the run, and we had to help her. She was covered in dirt, fleas and ticks, but today is a shiny little beauty. Your first step for adoption is to complete our adoption application at www.apathwaytohope.org. We will then screen your application through a vet reference check, phone interview (this is when you can ask all of your questions over the phone), reference checks (2) and a home visit. Our adoption donation is $300 and includes spay/neuter, microchipping, vaccines and preventatives up to date per the dog's age, health check, fecal / deworming as needed and heartworm testing and treatment as needed.

| 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.
