Adopt Sophie!
🐾🐕 It's time to #ShareAFoster & we are so excited to once again feature this goofy Pit/Lab Mix girl, SOPHIE (55066695) 🥰‼ She's currently with an amazing Foster Dad +Mom who has been doing such an outstanding job with her ‼ Here's what he had to say about sweet Soph:
🐾🐕"Sophie (AKA Sophie Girl, Sophie Lynn, & Soph-a-loafs) is still looking for her forever home. She’s been here for 4 months & sadly, has drawn no interest. 😞 Sophie is both goofy & playful with those big floppy ears & derpy underbite‼ Her story is she came to the shelter in January after being picked up as a stray, & like many dogs that are picked up, no one ever came to get her. Sophie is estimated to be about 1 year old, & after a doggy DNA test we were right about her Pitbull-Labrador Retriever Mix🎊😉. Here is what we can share in the 5 months that she’s been here:
🐾🐕Crate trained and housebroken (a consistent schedule & routine is key). She will go to the back door to tell you she needs to go potty.
🐾🐕LOVES people, but can be jumpy & mouthy when excited. She still acts very much like a puppy.
🐾🐕Knows her basic commands & is VERY treat-motivated.
🐾🐕She loves running around the house & you can always find her carrying a Kong, bone, or chew toy.
🐾🐕Walks well on a leash, but easily distracted by birds, squirrels, or leaves that blow by.
🐾🐕She loves to run & burn energy, so an ACTIVE individual or a fenced-in yard would be ideal, but not required.
🐾🐕At this point, we feel she is dog-selective. With proper introductions, she may get along with other dogs. As always, if you have another dog(s), a dog meet is REQUIRED‼
🐾🐕Sophie has done excellent with neighborhood kids (5+). She does like to jump up to give kisses & doesn’t realize her size (55lbs). 😆 ~~~
Sophie will thrive in just about any home. She’s very playful, affectionate, & cuddly, & as a young pup, has many years of love to give. If you are interest
🐾⚠🦠People forget that while wildlife can be cute, beautiful, or even exotic, they can also be dangerous⚠‼ Warmer weather increases the possibility of coming across wild animals – many of which can carry rabies🦠 – so New Jersey Residents are encouraged to be especially vigilant during these summer months. Rabies is a potentially deadly virus that is primarily spread by infected animals. All mammals are believed to be susceptible to the disease with some of the most common cases being feral cats🐱, raccoons, bats🦇, foxes, groundhogs, coyotes, skunks, & little chipmunks🐿. Usually, this disease is transmitted from animal to animal through bites, but it can also be transmitted to humans (zoonotic). While death from rabies is rare in the United States, we must practice safety precautions to reduce our chances of exposure‼
You should:
🐾🦠🖐Avoid contact with animals you don’t know.
🐾🩺💉Make sure your pets receive the proper immunizations. Dogs & cats should receive rabies vaccines by 3 months of age, followed by a booster shot one year later, & another one every year to 3 years as prescribed by your veterinarian🩺
🐾🦠❌Do not handle, feed, or unintentionally attract wild animals with open garbage cans or leave pet food out at night.
🐾🦠❌Never adopt wild animals/mammals or bring them into your home.
🐾🦠Do NOT try to nurse sick animals to health‼️ 📞Call animal control or a properly licensed animal rescue agency for assistance.
🐾🦠👧🧑🦱Teach children to NEVER handle unfamiliar animals, wild or domestic, even if they appear friendly. “Love your own, leave other animals alone” is a good principle to learn‼️

🐾🏊♀️It's time for some Pet Pool Safety Awareness‼ 🏊♀️🐾 Safety is often at the forefront of pet owners’ minds as far as their little humans are concerned, but what about their pets❓It is important that we, as pet owners, take precautions to stop our Furry Family Members from going near our pool unsupervised. To ensure their safety, they should NEVER be left unattended around a backyard pool, even if you are right inside the house‼ 🐾🏊♀️Your backyard pool may be fun, but it can be a big hazard for any pet, particularly if they are a breed that is not suited to swimming. The ASPCA has provided an amazing infographic that details some of the main dangers & what to watch out for during our summer pool activities.
⚠️🐾NOTE: Fencing plays a CRUCIAL role in keeping your animals safe, especially around your home's personal pool. Many Community laws require fencing around pools to be a minimum of a 48-inch high & tightly latched. A good added measure would also be to install a gate alarm &/or tight pool covers when the pool is not in use. Utilizing these safety measures can ensure that your pets stay safe & sound during these happy, fun summer months. 🐾🏊♀️

🐾🔥🚒 It's National Pet Fire Safety Day ‼️ Today is a day that promotes fire safety awareness while reminding pet parents to consider their Furry Family Members when planning fire routes & safety in their homes. Taking preventable measures now can save both your home and your pet. Often, our pets can CAUSE a fire or harm themselves during a fire if we don't take the proper precautions. When creating your fire safety plans, here are a few important precautions you can take:
🐾🔥🚒 Replace glass water bowls with metal or plastic. Left outside on wooden decks, they can heat up, & actually start a fire.
🐾🔥🚒Store leashes and collars near the entrance of your home. While away from the home, have your pets in the main living area for easy rescue.
🐾🔥🚒You can purchase front door 🚪stickers or decals indicating the type & number of pets in the home in the event of an emergency‼️
🐾🔥🚒Extinguish open flames. Pets are curious & certainly not cautious.
🐾🔥🚒Consider flameless candles for ambiance. Wagging tails & curious paws can haphazardly knock over candles.
🐾🔥🚒Have a plan when you are home. Know which family members will be responsible for each pet.
Putting the tips into practice, & having a mock fire drill can help you keep your pets & your humans safe‼️

🐾#BCAS IS IN NEED OF TOWELS‼ 🐾
Are you replacing or getting rid of your gently used or unused towels❓We will take them ‼ Here at the shelter, towels are a great help for both our Cat & Dog Residents, & we utilize them year-round ‼ During our Summer months, we tend to see a much higher influx of animals which means a much higher demand for towels‼ If you or someone you know has towels to donate, you can drop them off at our facility in our all-weather #Donation bin right out front OR stop in during our open hours ‼🐾😃 We appreciate you & your continued #Support 🫂🐾‼
