Help advance the bill to stop puppy mills ❤️‍🩹 New Jersey legislators are actively considering legislation that would prohibit the retail sale of dogs, cats, and rabbits statewide. Known as the “Humane Pet Store Bill”, New Jersey Senate Bill 2511/Assembly Bill 4051 will effectively stop puppy mills from doing business in NJ, encouraging more residents to adopt along the way. To date, 54 pet stores, numerous national organizations, veterinarians, and many local animal welfare organizations around NJ have already signed on, joining over 155 NJ municipalities that have passed binding ordinances prohibiting the retail sail of cats, puppies, and/or rabbits in their jurisdictions. 24 of the 25 largest pet retailers already comply with this bill as they do not sell cats and dogs, partnering instead with shelters and rescues to showcase adoptable animals in need of homes. Take action and call/email your local legislators and encourage them to support A4051/S2511. Your message can help protect pets statewide!

Sid and Casper sure are enjoying the first snowfall of the season ❄️☃️ We love these candid cam moments where we are able to catch them zooming mid stride or simply romping around being silly. If you have ever met either of these two sweethearts then you already know the answer to the question “where the heck are their coats?!” Casper is unfortunately very uncomfortable with clothing being placed over his head and….well, sensitive Sid is too afraid of his jacket to allow it anywhere near him. To make dressing easier we are seeking donations of new or lightly used winter coats with easy closures (i.e Velcro around the stomach and neck) for dogs who are uneasy about more restrictive options. With our current population the requested sizes are L and XL. We are currently working through some issues with our Amazon wishlist and hope to have it up and functioning soon. Please remember to be conscious of these frigid temperatures and avoid leaving pets outside for extended periods of time!

Everybody put your paws together for Petey! This little pumpkin head is just about the sweetest, silliest boy you could ever ask to meet. With not a single thought in his mind, Petey loves to prance around with his favorite people and will proudly chase his tennis ball face first into the wall. In case you didn’t know - BALL IS LIFE. He is estimated around a year old and is very much still a puppy at heart. During his 5 month stay with us he has made incredible progress but will definitely benefit from continued training with his new family. His personality (and head) are larger than life and are sure to win over a lucky adopter’s heart. If you are unable to give Petey the gift of family this holiday season he would also love a pack of squeaky balls! ❤️

We would like to extend a very special thank you to everyone who shared, supported and donated to our Kuranda bed fundraiser in October. The campaign was a massive success with the original ten wishlist items selling out within 12 hours! All of our dogs now have elevated, fleece lined beds thanks to YOU! We appreciate your continued support and could not be more grateful that you love our animals as much as we do ❤️

Adorable Turk just “celebrated” his one year anniversary with us in November. We cannot seem to wrap our heads around how this incredible dog is still in a shelter. He is full of personality and has the looks to match it. Our star pupil is always eager to learn and has already perfected the art of sit, down, and paw. Though he needs to be the only animal in the home he absolutely ADORES his people. If you are unable to give Turk the gift of family this holiday season he is also asking for a bag of busy bones and a crinkle plushie. ❤️

Miss Tia has had anything but an easy life before she found her way to us. Our shelter manager rescued her in June after she was abandoned and chained to an accessibility railing in a park bathroom. Though slow to trust, she is an extremely loving and loyal companion. She is searching for an adult only home but may be willing to share her space with the right large breed male dog. Tia would love nothing more than to be given a second chance at love this holiday season. If you’re unable to take her home but would still like to support this lovely lady, she would love a soft bed or plush toy! ❤️

These kittens were abandoned overnight on our doorstep in freezing temperatures without food or water. We recognize that people sometimes feel they are doing the “right thing” by leaving them at a shelter. While we are glad they made it into safe hands we are still left with many critical, unanswered questions when animals are abandoned. Do they have any vaccines? Do they have a current or previous illness that could be contagious to our current intake population? Is there a possibility that a female could be pregnant meaning that certain vaccines are unsafe for their unborn babies? In this instance, are there other kittens that could have escaped the box overnight? Please communicate with your local shelters instead of abandoning an animal. If we are unable to assist we are more than happy to provide extra food, additional resources for private rescues (who may not operate on a surrender waitlist), boarding facilities for temporary arrangements, or animal protection groups and food pantries to assist displaced residents trying to keep their animals. If you have any owner information please reach out to us at 908-754-0300 or [email protected].
