Her days of backyard breeding are over, now she waits for her happily ever after to begin…

Before you get wrapped up in her beautiful eyes and adorable face, there a few things you should know about Chelsea.

Her history is not one that any pup would envy. Chelsea was part of an unwanted litter. Her humans didn’t get rid of her, or turn her over to the shelter. Instead they let the entire litter roam the property. They weren’t invited inside, they were just there because they existed and the humans couldn’t be bothered doing anything else with them. Throughout her first year of life she has had minimum contact with humans, no social skills, no confidence, and just lived amongst her canine family. Predictably this led to more pregnant dogs, one of them being Chelsea. Finally after much convincing Chelsea and her siblings were surrendered.

Most people assume because of how she looks Chelsea embodies the goofy labby personality. She is actually a very shy timid pup. It takes her time to build a bond with humans. Chelsea thrives in a stable low key environment where she can decompress and build her confidence. She doesn’t need humans that will force themselves on her, but ones that have the patience to let her warm up at her own pace. Once this happens Chelsea becomes a great companion pup. Another canine in the home isn’t necessary but she sure would enjoy it, and it may make the transition into a new environment a bit easier on her. Feline friends seem to be tolerable too. She is respectful of them inside the home. Her training skills have been almost perfected aside from leash skills. The leash still seems to be a bit intimidating. While Chelsea has been great with these skills in her foster home there is a very good chance she could regress when entering a new home.

Life doesn’t always deal you a fair hand. As humans we have the ability to process this and cope with it in the best way possible, but to a family pet it simply feels like their whole world has been turned upside down.😔

Summer Grace & Pi were surrendered to the shelter after their owner had died. These girls have only known life as a beloved pet so they understandably suffered from shelter shock. These girls shutdown, didn’t want to interact, and were confused beyond measure.

Finding refuge in a foster home has been brought the light back into their eyes and literally put a smile on their face. Being in a cozy home is not only familiar but comforting to these girls. They were born to be family pups. They understand how to behave inside a home and seem to have their doggy skills mastered. Although they are a bit shy in new situations these girls thrive with human companionship once they form that bond. It doesn’t take them long to settle into the home environment. Both girls are 3-4 years old and about 80lbs. While it is not essential they get adopted together that can definitely be a possibility.

Summer Grace is a silver labby mix. She is the more confident of the duo. Although she is a bit chunky this girl still likes to rough house and play with her canine friends. When inside the home she’s fine to just relax on her dog bed, the couch or any vacant space that looks comfy.

Pi is a black labby girl. She is a little bit more timid than her sister. She tends to be a follower and looks for cues and confidence from her canine friends. If she is not running around the yard, you can find Pi carrying her stuffy through the house. She has a very soft and gentle personality.

If you can give either or both these girls a happily ever after email [email protected] today.

Look who was adopted!

Gelato officially traded in his foster life for a forever family. This sweet little guy found his people, and judging by those smiles, we’d say everyone is pretty happy about it. Gelato now gets to start the best chapter yet, one filled with love, security, adventures, and a family to call his very own.These are the moments we work so hard for, and we couldn’t be happier for Gelato and his new family. Congrats and happy tails, Gelato!

Thank you to Michelle and family for fostering this pint sized pup and giving him a second chance at his happily ever after!

He may not be a “fancy dog”, but he is certainly incredible ❤️

Pups in the 20lb range usually have great success on the adoption circuit, but they also tend to be fluffy, doodlely or purebreds. Chava does fall in the 20lb range, but he is none of those things. He’s just a Chava, a one of a kind patient, soulful, well balanced guy. He is a calming energy inside the home and befriends anyone he meets on his adventures. Chava has been around kids, cats and other pups without an issue. He is a special pup that does an outstanding job reading body language and energy of people, pups and felines. He travels well, is comfortable walking into new environments, and handles himself with class and confidence no matter what the situation presents. Chava seems to know his basic skills of house, crate and leash training. At 6 years old he is not overly active but still ready and willing to join his human on errands or social outings. Maybe his looks aren’t “fancy” enough for a little dog, but he is hoping his extraordinary personality makes up for that. If you think Chava could be your hottie companion email [email protected] today!

Aubrey has enough! She is taking the wheel and deciding the direction of her fate.

This girl is thankful for the opportunity to be a foster pup, but honestly she is ready to move on from the gig. While her foster home offers accommodations such as walks, canine companionship and kiddos to play with Aubrey can’t shake the feeling of wanting her own home sweet home. It’s like being on vacation for weeks. It’s fun, but there comes a point you just want to rest your head in your own bed. Aubrey is a social girl with people and pups, but not a fan of the felines. She loves making new friends. Aubrey continues to work daily on mastering those leash skills, her willingness to please humans is a great motivation when it comes to training. She seems to have her basic house and crate training skills mastered. Aubrey is just a girl looking to wrap up her summer fun by landing a forever family by Fall. If you think that family could be you email [email protected] today!

This has been our slowest summer on record related to adoptions, which directly impacted the amount of pups we could save the past few months.

Our Facebook numbers have dwindled becoming a fraction of what they once were. We are consistently chastised for making these posts and asking for more engagement, but the truth is social media plays a huge role in getting our rescue pups exposure. We are often asked why we do not frequent adoption events on regular basis to get these pups exposure. Aside from the limited reach these events have there are other reasons why these events are not ideal for adoptions.

Unlike most rescues in our area we are 100% foster based. That means every pup we have in rescue is currently living in a family home. We do not have a facility or central location and foster homes span throughout the tri-state area. It is a challenge to get enough pups to attend an event for logistical reasons.

Our foster families already go above and beyond in so many ways, mandating them to adoption events and making them forfeit their weekends is not something we do. While these events may help with exposure for the rescue in general it is not an ideal place for meet and greets.

Adoption is a life long commitment and most of that time this pup will be living with you inside your home, not out at a public event. We feel it is important that potential adopters see how a foster pup behaves inside of a family home. This gives a truer assessment of their personality and behavior.

Because of this over the past 10+ years we have mainly used social media to expand our reach and match these pups up with their forever family. If you are so inclined please like, share and comment on our adoptable pups posts. It takes a minute or two, they get exposure and we can continue to help those who need it the most.

Thank you for helping us, help them!

Are you looking for a pup with main character energy? Pistachio is ready for the role!

Depending on how he wears his ears Pistachio can be a huggable hound, goofy greygound, or lovable lab. Age is important in this industry, so although he is 2 years old Pistachio gives out puppy vibes with his silky antics. This boy is on the smaller side, under 40lbs. He keeps his lean figure by burning calories romping around with other pups and playing with his toys. While he likes his walks, leash skills are not a strong point. Everything is just so exciting that it causes him to zig zag left and right ensuring he can take in as much as possible. The crate isn’t Pistachio’s favorite place but he will sleep in it at night and when he is home alone. Housebreaking is nearly perfect, and it seems as though he had this basic knowledge prior to coming into his foster home. If you are looking for a fun guy that will turn your average life into a living sitcom email [email protected] today and ask about Pistachio!

How does a dog like Aubrey get absolutely NO interest?

Not one meet and greet.
Not one person asking to learn more about her.
Not one family saying, maybe she’s the one.

And we just don’t understand it.

Aubrey is only 2 years old and has so much life ahead of her. She’s social, playful, affectionate and loves being part of whatever her people are doing. She’s been working on all of those important “living in a home” skills house training, crate training and walking on a leash and she continues to make progress.

She doesn’t need to be anyone’s perfect dog on day one. She just needs someone willing to look at her and see the dog she can become with a home, consistency and someone who chooses her.

She doesn’t need hundreds of applications, just one willing to see Aubrey’s potential. One person who sees her face and stops scrolling.
One person willing to come meet her. One family willing to finally give this girl her chance.

Please help us get Aubrey in front of that person. Even if you can’t adopt, SHARE HER. Somewhere out there is the home she has been waiting for they just haven’t found each other yet. To apply for Aubrey email [email protected] today!
