Meet Chico – the lovable, attention-seeking cuddle expert! This friendly fella is all about people and will happily soak up all the love you have to offer. Belly rubs? Yes, please! Chico is a volunteer favorite, and it’s easy to see why – he`s got an endless supply of charm and affection. While he’s a little too enthusiastic about cats (he’d prefer a home without them), he’s fantastic with kids and has already mastered sitting for treats – he’s one smart pup! Treat-motivated and always ready for a snuggle, Chico is looking for a family that will give him the attention and belly rubs he deserves. Could that be you? ***ADOPTION SPONSORED***Thanks to generous donors, Chico will go home with a FREE adoption success kit (includes a crate, collar, leash, and other goodies!).

Story
Say hello to Lacey! This stylish pup takes her sweet time getting to know new people, but once she warms up, she`ll shower you with attention. She`s a bit of a hoarder, loving to hide her favorite stuffy toys in the yard for later discovery - it`s like she`s trying to solve a puzzle! As she settles into her new home, Lacey needs time to build trust, so her adopters should be patient and let her take the reins. She adores being the center of attention and will thrive as the only furry friend in the house. Unfortunately, cats are not her cup of tea, so a no cat home is just right for her! Lacey would do best with no children in the household, as well.***Thanks to generous donors, Lacey will go home with a FREE adoption success kit (includes a crate, collar, leash, and other goodies)!!!***

Story
Katie is a young, energetic dog who loves tug of war and laying in the sun. I recently accepted a job that requires us to relocate out west, and we will not be able to take her with us. Katie is kind and gentle with both of our kids. We have a 7 year old boy, who Katie chases around the house. And a 1 year old daughter. Katie enjoys laying on the ground near our daughter, watching her curiously. Katie loves to go on runs, occasionally I ride my bike around the neighborhood while she runs on her leash beside me. Katie is highly treat motivated, and has been easy to train basic commands. Shortly after we brought Katie home, she was attacked by another dog of similar size while I was walking her in the neighborhood, she has been distrustful of dogs ever since, and will become aggressive when other dogs get too close. We love Katie and want nothing more than for her to find a loving household to give her the attention and exercise she deserves

Story
Hi! I'm Jackson. I am very shy and just a tiny bit scared of my own shawdow, why does it keep following me? Anyways, I warm up with time and understanding, I am very smart and know the command sit. I'm housebroken and crate trained, and overall a very good boy. I have great manners if I say so myself.  I would do best in a household with no cats and no children under 13. I can be a bit dog-selective. I will need pawrents who understand that I am shy and busy/loud environments make me very nervous. I will thrive in a stable environment, with a yard of my own. Walks are fine from time to time, but sometimes loud noises, falling leaves, or something out of place, like a repair van, make walks for me a bit stressful. Therefore, a fenced-in yard will be required to adopt me. I've had all my shots, I've been neutered, and am ready to go home. I also come with a registered microchip and a full set of medical records (one copy for you and one for my new vet).  If you are interested in meeting me, please complete an adoption application online. Upon pre-approval, someone will reach out to set up a time for you to come meet me. Requirements to adopt me: - Adopter must be 25 years or older - Must own home, no renters - Must have a fenced-in yard - No children in the home under 13 years old ##1562218##

Story
Wilma is being fostered in NJ. Wilma is a wonderful companion and a very sweet lady. She will gently take a piece of kibble or a treat from your hand. She loves treats and biscuits! Wilma also likes back rubs and sitting nearby her person. Walking is another favorite activity, and she will tilt her head to listen to the sounds in the neighborhood. She is a gentle walker, doesn't pull, but will stop to listen. She will respond with a deep bark to other barking dogs. She is not afraid of dogs and does not respond aggressively, but if a dog continues to bark at her, she will also keep barking. Wilma gets along with the cat in her foster home as well as the rabbit. She will sit at the door to indicate she needs to go outside, and will go to her bed to nap or sleep for the night after she has visited outside. She's just a sweetheart who wants to be with her person! BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Resident since April 2018Hello, my name is Amora. I have been told how beautiful I am, and I cannot deny that it's the truth:)  I have been at PRBJ for over 6 years waiting for my forever home.  I know that is a really long time, more than half of my life. I am a great girl just ask anyone at the rescue center. I need time to get to know a person and trust them, but once I do, I will love you forever. I never forget those that love me.  I am a little older now and really would just like a home that I can relax with my human. I am good on the leash, but really don't like going too far...but maybe if I had a great person to walk me and keep me safe, I would enjoy walking.  I DO NOT like other animals (cats, dogs, birds, squirrels, etc), so my ideal home would need to pet free.... although I think I wouldn't mind a fish. I DO NOT like new people, so I would need a home that only has 1-2 ADULTS ONLY with very limited traffic in order to keep me and them safe. Please don't let any of this discourage you from wanting to adopt me. I know the right person is out there and the staff at the center is willing to work with us to ensure I get to the right home. It will take time for you to come in and meet me a few times, but I can guarantee I am worth it.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 5, 2024, 2:38 pm
