My story

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

Tall, blonde, and handsome (with gorgeous partially blue eyes). That's our Grover!

Grover is a 7 year old Catahoula/Lab mix and a loved long timer of over 4 years just waiting at the shelter for someone to "take a chance" on him. He was terrified after leaving the only home he had ever known, but has warmed up to his favorite staff members. He has been enjoying all the walks, runs, hikes and even working on his agility skills! Although Grover needs gradual introductions to new people-once he does feel comfortable with his chosen people, he shares his silly and affectionate side.

Grover had lived with a small dog in his previous home, and he sometimes forgets his own size and strength by thinking he is a lap dog. He does get along with smaller/medium dogs, but we believe Grover would thrive best in a home without dogs. With Grover's strength and being fearful of loud noises, he is looking for a quiet low traffic adult only home.

Grover is still holding onto hope that his forever home is out there. Let's help him get the chance that he has been longing for and deserving of!

More about this shelter

Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc. is founded on the belief that all animals have a natural right to humane treatment including proper care and safe shelter. Due to overpopulation, there are insufficient homes for most cats and dogs. Some are lucky enough to find temporary shelter and a few even find permanent homes. However it is a devastating fact that the majority are either euthanized or forced to chance life without shelter.

To support our belief and to relieve the unnecessary suffering of animals, we shall:
1.Extend every effort to find, evaluate, and secure good adoptive homes for animals in our care.
2.Provide animals with medical services and behavior therapy to the extent of our ability.
3.Adhere to a “no-kill” policy: animals shall not be euthanized for the purpose of providing space for new animals.
4.Adhere to a 100% spay and neuter policy.
5.Maintain continuing humane education programs and in particular to schools.
