My story

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

Make A Difference in your Community - Adopt a Shelter Dog! Would you like to foster a Shelter Survivor? For more information, visit us at www.sheltersurvivors.com

Meet our handsome boy, Franklin! He is very friendly and as sweet as they come. Franklin is approximately 12 lbs and about 3 years old. He enjoys the company of other dogs of all sizes. He would love a home with another dog or two! He is also cat friendly. Franklin is house broken. He loves to go for walks and you will enjoy yourself too since he walks so nicely on the leash. He has medium to high energy and he enjoys getting that energy out by playing a good game of fetch.  Because of Franklin's size, we recommend a family with children 12 years old and older. Franklin is a snuggler, and at night, he prefers to sleep next to his foster family. If you think that Franklin may be a good fit for your home, please fill out an online application! Once your application is received, Franklin's foster family will reach out to you.

Franklin is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations.

To adopt Franklin, please complete our online dog application by going to sheltersurvivors.com Click on the home page, look for "Application" at the top of the home page, and complete the application. Hit the submit button once you have completed the application in its entirety. This will expedite the adoption process.

Adoption Fees:

Adoption fees are donations to Shelter Survivors, not payment for value received, and are based primarily on the age, health, and temperament of a particular dog, and our expenses. Shelter Survivors is not an actual shelter, and we are not subsidized. Most shelters receive municipal funding, while Shelter Survivors operates on adoption fees and donations. All of our members are volunteers, and none of us receives a salary or payment of any kind. Our funds go 100% toward the care of our dogs, primarily for veterinary expenses. Volunteers usually pay the costs for transport, fostering, phone calls, postage, and adoption screening out of their own pockets.

The adoption fees range from $200.00 to $300.00, which is a bargain when you consider that spaying/neutering, testing, training and inoculations are usually included. Any difference in fee is noted in the description of the individual pet. Many animals have been micro-chipped.

Go meet their pets

Please note that Shelter Survivors does not run a physical shelter but uses a unique network of loving foster homes to house the animals awaiting adoption. To meet one of the animals that you find on the web, come to our adoption days (see the "events" page of our website) or send us an application at sheltersurvivors@live.com. Most of our adoption days are at PetCo in Raritan (off of the Somerville Circle).

More about this rescue

Shelter Survivors was formed to serve the needs of dogs that have been brought to shelters in the tri-state area, by providing loving and expedient rescue, foster homes and placement with a great measure of compassion and through teamwork with you and other rescue groups and shelters. Our focus is primarily on shelter dogs, and we work with local shelters to help communities in our area. We believe in saving the lives of shelter dogs, one dog at a time.

Shelters Survivors is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

Any financial support to help us care for our animals is very much appreciated and we also need dog food, crates of all sizes, beds and blankets for the pets in our care.

We do not have a shelter so we don't have visiting hours.
