Did you get a gift you just can’t - or won’t - use? Dreading standing in lines to return stuff only to pay restocking fees?

Here’s a feel-good solution: Regift it...to shelter pets! 🐱 🎁 🐶

Yup! If you get gift cards, kitchen items, toys or games, socks, craft supplies, decorative items, perfume, BOOZE (that's right!), electronic items, or just about any other gizmo or doodad, large or small, you can drop them off at the shelter.

Heck, if you have stuff you mail ordered but never got around to returning, this is a great way to “clear the clutter”!

Your donations of NEW, unused items will help fill our incredible prize baskets for our 2026 Tricky Tray*. The Friends of Somerset Regional Animal Shelter Tricky Tray is our biggest fundraiser and your re-gifts can make it a success!

So, when someone gives you something you don't want or won't use, go ahead and say THANKS...for the animals!

To donate:
👉Drop off items in the lobby during business hours (12-3:30pm) or in the donation bin under the carport after hours.
📍 100 Commons Way, Bridgewater, NJ.
👉If you have a large or high-value item to donate, email KathyH to arrange pickup: [email protected].

🌟 We also welcome contributions from local businesses like premade baskets, items, gift certificates for shopping or services!

Donation receipts provided upon request.

Thanks!🫶

* The Tricky Tray will be in April and details will be announced late January/early February on the Friends of Somerset Regional Animal Shelter page.

UPDATE —
All three dogs have left the building !!!! ❤️🎉🎉

🚨VERY URGENT🚨 These 3 dogs at Trenton Animal Shelter have UNTIL THE END OF THE DAY to be saved. They are scheduled to be euthanized today, 11/5 due to overcrowding at the shelter and urgently need a foster, adopter, or rescue! If you can help, please submit an application ASAP

WINSTON is a 70 lb senior pup, affectionally referred to as the “grumpy old man” of the shelter. He is looking for a calm, quiet environment to live out his golden years. Sometimes he is a little unsure of his environment and would benefit from positive reinforcement training techniques to build his confidence and make him feel secure. The shelter environment has been very stressful on him. ☹ He enjoys a routine and is house broken. He is tolerant of other calm dogs that respect his space. A meet and greet is always required with all family member, including the furry ones!

FERNANDA is a little blonde bombshell is just waiting to get scooped up! Fernanda is a young, active dog and would be best suited in a home that can help her with basic training and burn some of her energy. Fernanda would love a fenced in yard and someone to play catch with or a walking buddy to go on adventures with! Fernanda jumps when she is excited, so no small kids. Fernanda is dog selective- she came in with another female dog that was recently adopted. As always, a meet and greet is required. Fernanda is 50lbs and 1 year old.

YATTA is a sweet and energetic female pitbull mix that is always ready for fun and adventure! She would love to be your walking buddy! Yatta loves people, but prefers to be the only pet in the home. Yatta jumps when she is excited and would benefit from continued basic training and structure in a home. She is crate trained. Yatta is 50lbs and 4 years old.
