My name is Yogurt!

Hi there! I’m Yogurt!

I’m a sweet and playful 3-4-year-old boxer mix, weighing in at a lovable 60 pounds.  I’m super, super friendly, and I love other dogs, so if you have a furry friend at home, I’d love to meet them! I was patiently waiting at a shelter in Tennessee, but it’s gotten crowded because of all the dogs displaced by Hurricane Helene. I came in a stray, and nobody has come for me, so now I'm thrilled that I was lucky enough to come to NJ and find you!

If you’re looking to open your heart and home to a new best friend, please consider fostering or adopting me. When you bring me home, you’ll also make space for other dogs who are still waiting for help. You can apply at www.peace4paws.org/adoption-application

I can’t wait to meet you! Let’s make room for more friends in need.

If you have specific adoption or foster questions, please email: judy.atchison@yahoo.com

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN RESCUING A DOG!
