Arrow is an owner surrender, because he couldn’t adjust to their dog. When he first arrived to us all he would do was hide. But as time has past, he’s getting used to things here. This beautiful boy is gorgeous! He will be your lap cat! He is very mellow! Arrow wants nothing more than a window to look out and a faithful companion. Arrow is a full declaw, he is 7 years young. And he would like a quiet home with no dogs and no little kids. If you are interested in meeting Arrow, please fill out an application at save.rescuegroups.org. If you can not adopt, please share this post and help Arrow find his Furever home.

Stitch is a stunning boy as you can see. He has a beautiful shiny coat and he’s a pretty big guy. Stitch is about 7 years old. He’s been with us for quite sometime probably because Stitch is definitely an alpha cat, who can be a bit spicy at times. Its probably best that Stitch live in a home where he’s his own boss, with no other animals. If you like a cat whose more independent and wants to play when he wants to then Stitch is your guy! If you are interested in meeting or adopting Stitch, please fill out an application at save.rescuegroups.org. As always if you can not adopt, please share this post and help Stitch find his furever home!

Donations to Thrift Shop - We have tried to not post about this. We appreciate donations since this is how we support our shelter. Unfortunately there is an increase in people ignoring our signs and dumping/littering when the store is closed. This is unacceptable. We have pictures and license plates. If this persists, we will have no choice but to file complaints so we don’t have trouble with our Landlord.

OK FACEBOOK FRIENDS YOU DID IT LAST TIME! WE ASKED YOU TO SHARE OUR POST LIKE CRAZY, WE NEED YOU TO DO THE SAME! SHAYNA CAN’T STAY IN A FOSTER HOME MUCH LONGER! PLEASE SHARE! I got all dressed up, hoping someone would notice me, and I would find my forever family!!! But I didn’t get one application, not one. I was adopted 5 yrs ago but sometimes things change and im back here now. I’m a good dog, I really am! I’m totally housebroken. I’m crate-trained. I don’t destroy things. I walk really, really good on a leash. I even went and did a bunch of training at Beau’s K-9 Academy in Toms River. The volunteers here, really love me, but the shelter was too stressful for me so I’ve been in a foster home for a few weeks now and doing sooo good. I need a home without cats. And sorry other dogs stress me out too much, hey I’m like a teenager I get stressed! My perfect kind of owner would be pretty active since I love long walks and someone who will play my all time favorite game of fetch with me. I’m a bit of a snuggler when you get to know me and I get to know you, so I need someone who is very patient, and has plenty of dog experience and…..who will love me forever this time! If you are interested in meeting or adopting me, Shayna , please fill out an application, they are free at save.rescuegroups.org.

Buddy has been with us for about 3 months now and is ready to be adopted. Buddy is still initially shy but we know he will just blossom in a patient, loving home. When Buddy gets to know you, which takes about 15 minutes, he will come over and slowly back his butt onto your lap and just stay there as long as you let him and he loves to be petted!

Here is another great video of Danny! It is amazing how different dogs are out of the shelter! Many people do not realize that past that barking, jumping, hyper dog you see behind the kennel door, an animal hiding in a corner or a cat that runs from you as you walk towards it, is actually an AMAZING, LOVING, THANKFUL pet that will love you unconditionally if you just give them time and patience. Danny will make an incredible pet to someone. Is that someone you?

Please share this video of Babs!

***PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE READ AND SHARE!*** Babs and her brother came to us in October 2021 from a high kill shelter in North Carolina. The next day Babs started showing signs of Parvovirus. Bab’s ended up at the emergency vet for 10 days, but thanks to the doctors there Babs pulled through. During that time her brother was adopted. Babs then had to stay in quarantine at Save for a long time. Babs never had a chance to learn how to be a puppy and to develop puppy skills, so Babs would sometimes play too rough with our volunteers, she also developed a fear of getting in and out of cars and some loud noises. So with the help of a generous supporter Babs went into training at Beau’s K9 Academy there she learn to overcome her fears. Now she walks with confidence, she sits, stays, lies down on command. She has absolutely blossomed! Babs has now finished her training and is back at our shelter which is very small without a run outside for her to properly exercise. Babs is a wonderful girl and deserves a chance. Babs gets along with most dogs and she is a very happy loving girl but Babs does need reassurance and consistency which is very hard to have in a shelter environment. Babs needs a more rural home and very soon! Training will continue free of charge from Beau’s K9 Academy for the right family for this beautiful girl! If you are interested in meeting or adopting Babs please fill out an application at http://save.rescuegroups.org. If you can not adopt please share this post and help Babs find her furever home! Thank you!!
