Story
Hi. My name is Sadie Pickles and I need to find a person or family that will love me forever. I am a female beagle-mix. I am approx. 3 ½ yrs. old and weigh ~ 42 lbs. I was recently surrendered to Penny Angels Beagle Rescue because my previous owner said that I love attention and would do anything for it. During a petting session by my previous owner, I snapped at the other dog in the home when he tried to be a part of the ‘session’, and I also broke skin on my owner’s hand. I have also growled and snapped at the grandkids when I lived with them. I don’t know what happened to make me act that way. It would be best for me to find a home with an experienced dog owner with older children. Because of my history, no small or young kids (including grand-kids) should be left unsupervised around me. I have a lot of energy and would do well with someone who can give me one-on-one attention, though I am also an independent girl. I get along fine with the other dogs in Rescue but probably shouldn’t go to a home with another high energy dog. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to take me to training classes to see how you can better address potential issues that might arise. I am spayed and up-to-date with my vaccinations. I am using a doggie door in Rescue during the day and will need to learn new rules in your home. I am a sweet, playful, and loving girl. I am very smart and inquisitive, and I know some basic commands. I am a fast learner, too, and I love to please people. I walk well with a harness but would also be good in a home with a fenced-in yard. If you could take me for walks to work off some of my energy (or play with me inside or outside in the yard), that would be good for me. I am crate-trained and love my crate, though I haven’t needed to use it as much lately; I was given full run of the house in my previous home without problems. (My large crate, crate pads, and dog bed are included with my adoption.) I really hope that I can find someone willing to give me a second chance. If you are interested in adopting Sadie Pickles, please fill out an application and submit it to Penny Angels Beagle Rescue. Her adoption fee is $225, cash or check. The application is available at www.pennyangelsbeaglerescue.com. If your application is approved, you will be contacted by email or phone and then will complete the adoption process at PetSmart in Mays Landing, NJ on Saturday between 11-2 pm. If you have any questions, contact beagler534@comcast.net or emnase@aol.com, or call Penny Angels Beagle Rescue at 609-965-9476. Thank you!

Story
This sweet dog will win your heart! She was abandoned, and In need of a home. Preferably an active adult or a family with kids and pets. She is high energy.. she does play really well alonwith her toy, which will go with her We are working on leash training, but she needs more practice and would do best in a yard To run. She will not run away even without a fence.! She gets along with everyone, including the neighborhood, dogs and kids and my three cats! She is not an alpha dog should be easy to train. She can be rambunctious as a big puppy and could inadvertently knock small children over but the neighborhood kids play rough with her and she does not bear her teeth. Very fun, loving! I walk her Every few hours to prevent accidents in the house. She loves her crate and it will go to the new owner. An appointment is set to have her vaccinated and spaded as I don’t know her history. She has webbed paws For swimming and loves a bath. Come meet this beautiful sweet puppy!

Story
Quinten is a very loveable boy who was abused in his very short life. so he does have a bite history. A familiy with no small children or other animals will be best for this boy..He's a loving loyal dog once he settles in Needs a single family home because he becomes protective of his owners He must have a leaded, someone that shows authority. He will need to adjust slowly as of his abused history please give Quinten a chance

Story
this boy has been nothing but loving since entering my rescue. A bite incident with his foster caused his return to rescue..Believe he was protecting his foster. all he wants is love, belly rubs and loves playing with other dogs. His first owner didn't take care of him when he had a broken leg when a puppy, so leg has healed crooked. Our vet says leave it alone cause he uses it every day. Please give him a 2nd chance
