Story
My family found him in a shelter to foster him and after a year of having him his original owner took him back. About 7 months after that the lady reached out to me needing to permanently rehomed due to one of her family members diagnosis with stage 4 cancer and was not able to take care of him. I happily took him back. Due to my age, career, and do not have my family’s support this time due to having their own dogs I am not in a position to give Dunkin the best life right now and he deserves to. one of the most sweet, loving, loyalest dogs you’ll ever meet. He is fully potty trained and listens extremely well. He is good with kids and has a lot of energy! However, he has intense, separation anxiety, and does not do well when he is left alone and tries to break out of the home to find his person. not great with other dogs however, I think he needs another dog to help with that separation anxiety. A great fit would be somebody who works remote. Or even foster for a few month!

Story
Hi, my name is Zeus, and I’m a 7-month-old pup looking for my forever home. I weigh about 64 lbs right now and still have some growing to do. I’m a sweet boy, but I’ve been through a lot lately. My last owner had to let me go which has made me a little sad. Due to no fault of my own, they couldn't keep me but I’m trying my best to stay positive and looking ahead to the future. I’m up to date on all my age-appropriate vaccines, so I’m healthy and ready to start fresh. I love people and would love to be part of a family who can give me the love and attention I deserve. I’m still learning a lot about the world, but I’m a quick learner and I love to please. If you have a big heart and space for me, I promise to be your loyal companion. You can apply to adopt me at https://peace4paws.org/adoption-application. I can’t wait to meet you.If you have specific adoption or foster questions, please email: judy.atchison@yahoo.com THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN RESCUING A DOG!

Story
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!

Story
Meet Tankie – Your New Best Buddy!   Tankie is an 8-year-old 70 lb sweetheart currently in Florida and looking for a forever family in or around New Jersey! He may have a little gray around the muzzle, but don't let that fool you—he’s still full of life and energy for playtime, walks, and tons of snuggles.  Here’s what makes Tankie so special: - Kid-Friendly: Gentle and affectionate with kids. - Dog-Cautious, Not Aggressive: A slow introduction with other dogs is best, as he’s a bit cautious after an incident at the dog park. - House Trained: Housebroken and non-destructive, Tankie roams freely at home. - Loves Car Rides & Toys: A pro traveler who’s always up for a new toy! - Commands & Manners: He knows his basics, respects boundaries, and has no food or toy aggression. Tankie's favorite thing? Curling up under a blanket with his humans nearby. He doesn't have separation anxiety but prefers to be near you if you're home. If crated, he likes to be in a cozy room without seeing too much activity. Tankie’s current family is going through a divorce and wants to find him a loving home in or around New Jersey where he can thrive. He’s ready to bring joy, snuggles, and a loyal heart to a lucky family! Interested in fostering or adopting this handsome boy? Apply at www.peace4paws.org/adoption-application to give Tankie the loving home he deserves!
