My story

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

2 year old Nellie only has 1 care in the world: finding a home!

Nellie is a super friendly girl we think would make great companion with bigger/sturdy kiddos. Nellie even has potential to get along with other dogs. She is a great petite size of about 45lbs making her the perfect size for snuggling on the couch or lap snoozles. This teeny girl is super affectionate and loves treats. Her social personality makes her the perfect dog for any household! Adopt Nellie!

Our shelter is located in Newark, NJ. Applications can be filled out in person or online: ahscares.org/adopt

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Individuals wishing to adopt an animal from our shelter must complete an adoption application and provide proof of home ownership or, if you are a renter, you must provide a copy of your lease or a notarized letter from your landlord stating pets are permitted. You must be at least 21 years of age to adopt any animal from our shelter. We reserve the right to refuse any adoption. In some instances, a home visit may be required. Our fees vary depending on the age and breed of the animal. Typically, a mix breed is $110.00 and a purebreed is $150.00 and up. There is also an altering charge of $85.00 for a male and $95.00 for a female. All animals receive vaccines, microchip identification, frontline treatments.

Go meet their pets

We are opened 7 days a week between the hours of 12:00-5:00pm for adoptions. No appt is necessary and we welcome prospective adopters to bring their current pet for a meet and greet with one of our orphans.
We hold offsite adoption events throughout the year. Please visit our Facebook page AHS-Newark Branch & our volunteer page, Friends of Associated Humane Newark Shelter.
