Story
Rehoming Our Sweet Carmel 🐾 I’m looking for a loving family to welcome my 1-year-old puppy, Carmel. He’s a bundle of energy and loves to play, so he’ll need someone who can give him the attention he deserves. Carmel was born from his mom, Gingie, who had a large litter of 9 puppies. We’ve been caring for him while waiting for the perfect family to come along. He’s crate-trained and is working on fully mastering house training — sometimes he makes little mistakes but always tries to use his pee pad. He’s very close to his brother, Tiger, as they grew up together, but unfortunately, with my busy career and the number of dogs I already care for, I can’t give Carmel the time he truly needs. He spends a lot of time in the cage, and he deserves more freedom and love than I can currently provide. If you or someone you know is ready to give this sweet boy a forever home, please reach out! He’s full of love and would make a wonderful companion for an active family.

Story
Meet Llama, the happiest, cuddliest, and most playful 1-year-old, 43-pound terrier mix you’ll ever meet! This girl is full of life and love, always ready for fun and adventure. She runs like the wind, leaps like a champion, and would absolutely shine in agility training—or just zooming around the yard! A fenced yard where she can stretch her speedy legs is a must for this energetic sweetheart.Llama is not just about play—she’s also a world-class cuddler! Whether she’s snuggled up with her favorite humans or lounging after a long day of fun, she loves to be close. Chewing on bones is another one of her favorite pastimes—give her a good chew toy, and she’s in heaven!She’s crate trained and does great in her crate, settling down quickly after a short whine. Llama adores other dogs and greets them with happy kisses and playful invitations. She plays hard and loves to be the boss, but if her playmate isn’t interested, she’s just as happy entertaining herself.This smart, treat-motivated pup already knows how to sit and is working on perfecting her manners—like keeping all four paws on the ground when excited and resisting the temptation of tasty snacks on the counter. She loves squeaky toys and would be a fantastic candidate for trick training!Though car rides still make her a little nervous, she’s a brave girl who hops right in and stays close for comfort. She also walks well on a leash and would love regular strolls and adventures with her forever family.Llama’s goofy, loving, and fun personality makes her an amazing companion for an active family. She’s adored by her foster and will steal your heart in no time!

Story
Misty is an 10-month-old, 35-pound Boxer mix with a playful spirit and a heart full of love. Despite being deaf, Misty is a quick learner and would thrive in a home with another dog who can help guide and teach her. She has plenty of energy to burn, as expected from her young age. Misty absolutely loves other dogs and enjoys playing with them, although she can be a bit too playful with cats, chasing them in an attempt to play. She is learning basic commands like “sit” and how to go into her kennel when you point to it. Potty-trained but in need of regular breaks, Misty prefers not to be left outside alone—she’ll head back to the door quickly if you or another dog aren’t with her.Curious and sweet, Misty is just discovering the joy of toys and is eager to share her zest for life with her forever family. She hasn’t been around children yet but would likely do well with those who understand her playful nature, including her tendency to jump up when excited. Outgoing and affectionate, Misty adores meeting new people and is ready to give all her love to someone who will return it. If you’re looking for an energetic, loving companion who will melt your heart, Misty might be the perfect match! Bcaaofnj.orgInterested in adopting this pet?Click here for BCAA's on-line Application!

Story
Meet Agatha – Our Golden Girl Pug mix!! She was found as a stray right before Christmas and is now ready for adoption. She is around 12 years old and weighs 15 lbs. Agatha had a mass that needed to removed, had surgery and is now looking for a quiet home. She is a very calm senior who is looking to be a companion to some lucky adopters in her retirement years. Although she likes walks, her back legs are weak, so she would do great with older adopters who don’t want the hassle of an active younger dog. She also would do well in an apartment or condo since her energy level is ‘chill’. She is housebroken and attentive to her foster mom. Her foster mom says she came to her shy and confused and she is amazed at how sweet and trusting Agatha was with all the changes and medical challenges she has had (which are now resolved). If you are looking for a low maintenance cuddle bug, please put in an application today!! Bcaaofnj.orgInterested in adopting this pet?Click here for BCAA's on-line Application!
