My story

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

Introducing Sweet Peaches, the ultimate senior sweetie at our shelter!

This lovely lady wandered into our lives as a lost dog, and she's been melting hearts ever since! Peaches is quiet and low key. She enjoys the outdoors and basking under the warm sun, plus walking is her favorite pass time. Peaches has bonded easily to her favorite volunteers who religiously walk her, but is happy to make friends with anyone holding a treat! We swear her tummy is bottomless!! Peaches is about 8 years old, dog friendly, approved for older/sturdy kids plus is a wonderful house guest in her foster home!

Peaches is currently in the care of a foster. To meet Peaches, please first submit an application here: ahscares.org/adopt and we will contact you to schedule a meet!

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.
