Meet Rubix, the lovable, playful, and goofy one-year-old mixed breed who is looking for his forever home! Weighing in at 59 lbs, Rubix was rescued from NYCACC, and while his past is a bit of a mystery, we believe he once had a special boy in his life whom he misses deeply. Now, he’s ready to build new bonds with a family who will give him the love and attention he deserves.

Rubix has a bright personality and an impressive ability to learn new tricks. He already knows commands like sit, down, settle, wait, search, drop it, and can even play dead—he’s a true comedian! House-trained and very in tune with his routine, he’ll let you know when it’s time for a bathroom break. Rubix is a big fan of outdoor play, whether he’s racing around the yard or enjoying a hike, beach day, or jog with his family.

He has a special connection with his teenage foster brother and shows a lot of affection towards older kids, making him the perfect companion for families with teens or empty nesters. Rubix also gets along well with other dogs and loves playtime with his furry friends. His energy and zest for life make him a great match for an active family familiar with larger breeds.

Above all, Rubix just loves to be loved. He’s the type of dog who will happily snuggle up for a nap like a full-body pillow, but he also has a playful side that’ll keep you laughing for hours. If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion to join your family, Rubix could be the perfect fit!

Ready to meet Rubix? Apply today to adopt him at Peace 4 Paws Adoption Application. Let’s give this amazing boy the fresh start he’s been dreaming of!

A Huge Thank You to Mike from Heatseeker Drone Services!!!!

When Abby had been missing for over 24 hours in freezing temperatures, we were growing desperate and knew time was running out. We reached out to Mike for help, and without hesitation, he offered his expertise to assist in her search. After reviewing recent possible sightings and identifying challenging terrain close to those sightings that would be difficult for volunteers to access, Mike focused his drone in those areas.

Although Abby wasn’t found there, Mike accomplished in one hour what would have taken dozens of volunteers hours upon hours on foot. This allowed us to redirect our search efforts to more walkable areas the next day—ultimately leading to Abby’s safe recovery.

Watching Mike and his drone in action was truly incredible, and we are so grateful for his time, effort, and dedication. While we hope we don’t have to search for any lost dogs in the future, it’s comforting to know we can rely on Heatseeker Drone Services if we ever need them again♥️.

Thank you, Mike, for everything!

♥️ A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Incredible Community ♥️

We are overjoyed to announce that Abby has been found alive, and it’s all thanks to the overwhelming support, kindness, and tireless efforts of our community.

From those who ventured out in freezing temperatures to search for her, to everyone who shared her information and offered words of encouragement—your compassion and determination brought us closer to bringing Abby home safely. Every moment spent searching, sharing, and spreading the word played a crucial role in her rescue.

Abby is now at Oradell Animal Hospital receiving any necessary medical care.

This outcome is a powerful reminder of what we can accomplish when we come together. Abby’s safe return is a testament to the strength of our community and the power of love and unity.

With heartfelt gratitude,
Peace4Paws Dog Rescue

Scooby is a 7-month-old, 55lb Black Mouth Cur with a heartbreaking past, but an incredibly loving heart. After being cruelly tossed out of a car window in North Carolina, he was rescued by a compassionate college student. He spent a month in her care, receiving the safety and love he so desperately needed. Unfortunately, after his rescuer returned home for winter break, her family’s dogs didn’t get along with Scooby, so he was isolated in a separate room, missing the connection and freedom he truly deserves.

Scooby is a gentle, affectionate boy who adores giving hugs and is especially close with his foster mom. He’s good with cats and generally gets along with most dogs, though some dogs can react negatively toward him. He’s not yet neutered, but he’s up to date on all vaccinations. His calm nature suggests he could do well with children, provided there are proper introductions.

This resilient boy deserves a home where he can roam freely and be part of the family. If you're looking for a loving, sweet companion to offer you unconditional love, Scooby is waiting for you. Apply for adoption today at Peace4Paws Adoption Application.

Meet Muffy – Your New Best Friend!
Hi there, I'm Muffy! I’m a sweet, 2-year-old Blue Heeler weighing about 50 pounds, and I'm looking for a loving family to call my own. I can't wait to meet you!
I'm a gentle, affectionate girl who loves everyone – people, other dogs, cats, and kids. I’m friendly and social, always ready to make new friends! I’ve been spayed and am up to date on all my vaccinations, so I’m all set to settle into my forever home. Originally from Kentucky, I’m now on my way to New Jersey and looking forward to the next exciting chapter of my life with you!
If you think I’d be a great addition to your family, please apply for adoption at https://peace4paws.org/adoption-application. I promise to bring plenty of love and joy to your home!

Meet Willow – Your New Adventure Buddy!
Hello! My name is Willow, and I’m a sweet, adventurous 4-year-old Husky in search of my forever home. I’m originally from Kentucky, but I’m making my way to New Jersey to find a family to call my own.
My current owner has some medical issues and can no longer care for me, so I’ve missed out on some much-needed exercise and playtime. I would love to find a walking buddy – I love sniffing around and exploring the world! I’d be so happy with a family who can help me stay active and give me the adventure I crave. I’m spayed, up to date on all my vaccinations, and ready for the next exciting chapter in my life.
I get along wonderfully with kids and other dogs, so if you have a family or a furry friend at home, I think we’ll get along just fine. However, I’m not too fond of cats, so I’d prefer a home without any feline companions.
If you're looking for a loyal, loving, and fun companion to join your family, I just might be the perfect fit! You can apply to adopt me by visiting https://peace4paws.org/adoption-application. I can’t wait to meet you and start our adventure together!

Meet Wendell, a sweet 3-year-old boy who’s ready for a fresh start! Originally found as a stray, Wendell was never claimed and has now been at the shelter for nearly a year. Thankfully, Peace4Paws stepped in to help this special guy find the loving home he deserves.
Wendell quickly became a favorite at the shelter, forming friendships with both people and other dogs. Once he gets to know you, he’s incredibly affectionate and loyal, just like the wonderful volunteers he’s bonded with.
This sweet boy is very dog-friendly and would do great with another dog in the home. His favorite activities at the shelter include relaxing with a good massage, going for walks, and lounging in the shade to beat the heat. Wendell is already neutered and weighs around 40 lbs—he’s ready to settle into a loving home of his own.
If you're interested in adopting Wendell, please fill out an application at www.peace4paws.org/adoption-application from a computer or laptop.

Hi, I’m Yogurt! I’m a sweet and playful 3-4-year-old Boxer mix, weighing in at 60 pounds. I’m super friendly and get along great with other dogs, so if you’ve got a furry friend at home, I’d love to meet them!
I used to wait for my family at a shelter in Tennessee, but with the extra dogs from Hurricane Helene, the place got crowded fast. I came in as a stray, and no one has come to find me, so I’m thrilled to have the chance to find a new family here in New Jersey!
If you’re looking to give a dog like me a chance, I’d be so grateful to be your new best friend. By fostering or adopting me, you'll not only be making room for me in your heart, but you’ll also help other dogs still waiting for their chance.

Meet Simba! This spirited 9-10 year-old male proves that age is just a number. Despite his senior status, Simba is full of energy and adventure. He loves climbing, leaping to impressive heights, and playing tag—he’s always on the go! Whether it’s a run in the park or a long walk, Simba confidently outpaces any dog around. He previously lived with 3 other Chihuahuas, and they would all run and play together in the large fenced yard three times a day. With all his energy, you wouldn’t believe he’s a senior!

Simba is a social butterfly who thrives on love and attention. He’s happiest when he’s cuddled up with his humans, soaking up all the hugs and kisses. When it’s time to rest, Simba loves curling up under covers or finding cozy, dark spaces to sleep in. A true nature lover, he enjoys lounging on the grass, basking in the sun, and watching the world go by from a window. Grooming is also one of Simba’s favorite activities—he loves baths and being pampered. While Simba will need some dental care, he’s up to date on his vaccines and ready to find his forever home.

If you’re looking for a companion who’s full of life, incredibly affectionate, and ready to bring joy into your home, Simba is the one for you! Apply to adopt him at https://peace4paws.org/adoption-application. He can’t wait to be a part of your world!

Hi there! I’m Zeus, a 7-month-old pup weighing in at about 64 lbs, and I’m still growing! I’ve been through a lot recently, as my last owner had to let me go, but I’m staying positive and looking forward to the future. I’m a sweet, mellow boy who would make a fantastic family dog. I love spending time with people and get along well with other dogs. Cuddles are my favorite, and I’m always ready to show affection!

I’m up to date on all my age-appropriate vaccines, so I’m healthy and ready to find my forever home. I’m still learning about the world, but I’m a quick learner and love to please. If you have a big heart and space for me, I promise to be your loyal companion and best friend.

If you’d like to meet me, you can apply to adopt me at https://peace4paws.org/adoption-application. I can’t wait to meet you and start our new life together!

Meet Cowboy, the 2-year-old Corgi who’s as sweet as they come! At 38 pounds, he’s a neutered male with AKC papers, a true bundle of joy who’s always ready for cuddles, pets, and plenty of affection. With his irresistible smile and loving nature, Cowboy is sure to make your heart melt.

Cowboy is friendly with other dogs and enjoys spending time with his Great Dane foster sibling. While he’s still working on gaining confidence with larger dogs, he’s been getting along well and would thrive in a home where he can continue to build those social skills. He’s housebroken, crate-trained, and knows how to make himself at home, often retreating to his own space when he needs a little downtime—though he’s always up for a good time with his family.

If you’re looking for a dog with a big heart and an even bigger personality, Cowboy is ready to bring joy and laughter into your life. He’s just waiting for his forever home where he can share all his love and happiness. Head over to peace4paws.org/adoption-application to adopt Cowboy today—he’s sure to steal your heart in no time!

Meet Gloria!

Found as a stray in Kentucky, Gloria’s journey has been nothing short of remarkable. This resilient, one-year-old girl has overcome challenges and is now ready to embrace a new chapter in her life, having recently made her way to New Jersey. Though we’re unsure of her exact time spent on her own, Gloria has proven to be full of energy and curiosity once she feels comfortable in her surroundings.

Gloria would thrive in a home with another confident dog to help guide her as she learns about her new life. Her energetic spirit makes her the perfect adventure buddy for active families. Patient, older children would be a great addition to her new family, as she’ll thrive in a calm, loving environment.

Gloria will come spayed, up-to-date on all vaccines, and fully prepared for her next chapter. If you’re looking for a loving companion and can provide the safe, patient space she needs to settle in, Gloria will reward you with endless love and loyalty.

Ready to meet this incredible girl? Help Gloria shine in a home of her own by filling out an adoption application today! You can apply from a laptop or computer at www.peace4paws.org/adoption-application.

Brady is a 3-year-old, 47 lb ball of energy who believes he’s a lap dog! Full of life and love, he’s always ready to run, play, and make you smile. Rescued from an overcrowded shelter in Kentucky, where outdoor time was limited, Brady has blossomed in his foster home in New York. He’s thriving with his foster family, including three older children who adore him and give him all the attention he loves!
Brady is friendly with both dogs and kids, though his playful nature makes him better suited for a home with older children. He’s working on his leash manners, but he’s sweet as can be and loves a treat as motivation to “sit” and “stay” while out on walks. Brady already knows commands like sit, off, down, come, place, and stay—and he’s eager to learn more! His soulful eyes are matched only by his enthusiasm for training, as he’s always up for new challenges, especially if treats are involved.
Brady is the perfect mix of playful and affectionate. With just a little more guidance, he’ll be the ideal cuddle buddy who’s ready for some fun, and he’d love to have a fenced yard where he can burn off his energy.
If you're looking for a sweet, joyful companion who’ll bring laughter and love into your life, Brady is the perfect match!
Apply today to welcome this handsome boy into your home at www.peace4paws.org (using a computer or laptop).
