Story

🚨Josie needs your help! Josie has been in our rescue for a year now, waiting on her forever family. We’re not sure why she keeps getting looked over - perhaps it’s her unique look with a scruffy face and dark eyes or the fact she should be the only dog in the home, which we know can be a deciding factor however, we have to be honest with ourselves and know what is best for Josie long term and that is to be the solo dog. Josie’s been through several of our foster homes over the year, no fault at all, just due to scheduling and commitments our fosters have. We didn’t expect to have Josie this long in our care but we are committed to her! Thats where it leaves us as she is in need of a new foster home as her current one has other commitments away from the home for a few weeks. We ideally would love to find her forever home and are also able to do a foster to adopt situation where you would commit to fostering and if she fits in your home/family, you can choose to adopt! Some quick info on Josie: ⁃ 2 years old, medium (40lb) terrier mix ⁃ Loves: time in the backyard, car rides, squeaky toys, cuddling ⁃ Obedience: housebroken, crate trained, food grazer ⁃ Quirks: doesn’t like other dogs (will need a slow introduction if around other dogs) and can get jumpy around young kids so best with older kids Please help us & Josie and apply to become her foster or adoptive home here: http://www.coldnosewarmheart.org/apply-now.html http://www.coldnosewarmheart.org/new-foster-questionnaire.html

Story

Hi, I’m Jerry! My favorite word is pet. I melt in your hands when you pet me, I just love looking into your eyes and feeling loved. My foster sister is a hard shell to crack, she’s picky with other dogs she likes..but I’m winning her over more and more every day. I’m super submissive, patient and gentle. I love other dogs, I just wanna play! I’m crate trained, so far house broken, but need some leash practice. Because I was abandoned I’m practicing food and water insecurity and separation anxiety (I’m just so excited that I have these things now!). I’m learning not to counter surf, I’m doing my best. My foster mommy says I get better every day. She also says I’m super smart! I learned sit in two days, I’m pretty good at “stay,” and I’ve been working on this fun trick my foster sister does. Maybe I can show you some time.. I’m learning so many new sounds! Airplanes, cars, hawks flying above me. I get a little nervous, but my foster mommy says I don’t pull when I’m scared, I’m just ready to walk back home. I’m more curious than anything. I’m really SO sweet. I still have some “puppy energy” so would do best in a home with a dog that loves to play or a backyard I can run in. I need some patience, encouragement, and love but I’m really a loving dog that just wants to be apart of your family. http://www.coldnosewarmheart.org/dog-application.html @cnwhnj @coldnosewarmheartnj

Story

Isaac will be at our adoption event on Sunday 1/12 at the Newton Petsmart from 11-1! Meet Isaac! Isaac is a 9-10 week old tricolored hound mix with the cutest spots all over his chest and legs. He is currently around 10 lbs and we expect that he will be medium sized when he’s finished growing. Isaac has spent the last week in his foster home playing with two of his brothers, being exposed to the big dogs in his foster home and even the cats! He is definitely the most outgoing of the bunch and will try to climb the gate to get to you for some attention and adventure! He is a sweet pup and has not been terribly nippy though some puppy behaviors should always be expected. Isaac will need a family that is patient and committed to all of his typical puppy training including housebreaking, obedience, socialization, etc. If you’re looking for an outgoing playful puppy then Isaac will make a great addition to your family! He will be ready to go home around 1/18. http://www.coldnosewarmheart.org/dog-application.html @cnwhnj @coldnosewarmheartnj

Story

Meet Lenny! Don’t let his big-dog look fool you—he’s a fun-sized 40-pound pup with a big heart. At approximately 1 year old, Lenny is the perfect mix of playful and snuggly. He’s a ball of energy who loves tossing a ball for himself, chasing it down, and playing tug-of-war. With his athletic build and eagerness to learn, Lenny may also be a great candidate for agility training! But when it’s time to relax, he’s all about cuddling up on the couch. Lenny enjoys walks with his nose to the ground, soaking up all the interesting smells. He’s housebroken, crate-trained, and knows how to sit. He’s currently working on learning “off” and improving with car rides and leash walking. Lenny thrives when he can socialize with other dogs or when he has a calm canine companion to guide him. He’s loyal and attentive—you’ll always know where he is because he loves keeping tabs on his people. If you’re looking for a loving, playful, and active companion, Lenny might just be the perfect fit! http://www.coldnosewarmheart.org/dog-application.html @cnwhnj @coldnosewarmheartnj
