Story
I call Yoki a sweetheart. Yoki is a Japanese Akita Inu. The moment you meet her, you will fall in love with her since she is so loving and has such a sweet face. She is around 6 years old and weighs 85 lbs. She is spayed, vaccinated, and dewormed. She walks well on her leash and enjoys her daily walks so much. She is quiet and does not chew anything in the house. She loves to be petted and hugged. She is housebroken, and crate trained. Her ideal family should have experience handling a large-sized dog and she will be the only pet in the family. She is with her foster family in Central Jersey and a meet and greet is recommended.

Story
Meet Sassy. She has come back to us for a second time because of changes in homes. Her first owner was unable to keep her because they became homeless and the second home had a new baby and unfortunately this caused too much stress for Sassy to handle. Sassy is around 70 pounds and is a mix. No one was able to ever tell us what breeds she really is. Sassy is looking for a low key home where there is not much going on. She needs a family who is willing to put the work in to make sure she feels confident and comfortable around meeting new people. Sassy is looking for a home without small children or other dogs. We know that this is a tough home to find, but we feel that there is a home out there waiting for her. Sassy has been with us since May of 2024.

Meet Gage, the resilient pup with a heart as big as his will to wag his tail! Gage hails from Memphis, TN, where he sadly endured a close-range gunshot wound to his back. Despite his past, Gage remains loving towards people, offering tail wags as a sign of his affection. Now in NJ after being discharged from the hospital, Gage is a friendly, energetic fellow in need of a secure, fenced-in yard where he can frolic and play. Gage's past as a stray remains a mystery, but his love for food has made training a breeze for this cheerful guy. Will you be the one to finally give Gage the loving home he deserves?

Introducing Pina: Pina's story is one of resilience and love. She was once cherished by a devoted mom who nurtured her, but sadly, unexpected circumstance led her to needing a new home after her mom suddenly passed away. Despite the loss she endured, Pina remains a bright and affectionate soul, although she may need a bit of time to rebuild her trust. A well-behaved girl who is adept at basic commands, she's an excellent companion in the home. With patience and proper introduction, Pina could potentially thrive alongside a male large breed dog.
