My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Ashton is a special boy with the coolest hazel eyes and a beautiful lab-like coat and face. Ashton is currently the longest resident at the shelter, but that does not stop him from losing hope or showing love to the volunteers. Although shy at first with new people, Ashton becomes extremely loyal and open once he gets to know you.

Ashton is very smart and knows his daily routine. He is housebroken and does his business quickly on his walks. Once outside, he loves to roll around in the grass and stop for pets. Ashton’s hidden talent is that he is amazing at fetch (which not many people know). It’s his favorite activity to play in the yard, and he will play it with any toy.

Ashton would do best in a low-traffic home with no young children. Ideally, his future owner is experienced and has a good vet reference.

Ashton is up to date on all vaccines, neutered, and is waiting patiently to be your new best friend! Don’t count Ashton out just because he is shy! Once he opens up he is a lovely pup!

More about this shelter

Montclair Township Animal Shelter (MTAS) is a municipal shelter providing animal control services as well as sheltering lost, stray, abandoned and unwanted animals. All animals are cared for by a small team of staff and volunteers, and the animals that are available for adoption are promoted via social media and local events. We work with other rescue organizations to accept and transfer animals, on an individual basis, depending on what is best for the animals. All dogs and cats are spayed or neutered and microchipped prior to adoption. In additional MTAS provides TNR services for Montclair & Nutley.
