Ruby is very shy and needs time to warm up but once she does, she blossoms into a darling, little cuddly girl who gets along with other dogs. We do not know what she thinks of cats.

Please help Ruby find the loving home she deserves. We do NOT ship our animals. All adoptive families must travel to us to meet their adoptive dog/cat. Applicants must live within a 2 hour radius from Sparta/Andover (07871/07821).

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Penny! Penny is about 5 years old and 10 pounds. She is housetrained, crate trained and gets along with other dogs but no cats please for this cutie. This little girl loves to run, play and is great on a leash and in the car. An adopter with Rat Terrier experience will be best! Penny was picked up as a stray in South Jersey. Sadly, her family never came looking for her. When Penny was found, her right rear leg had already been removed. She hasn't shared with us what happened and that's OK because that part of her life is behind her, and it certainly doesn't hinder her in any way.  Look at her run and play here: https://www.facebook.com/711622587/videos/pcb.10164002676812588/4236660883244925 This little girl is ready to start a new chapter, one with a family that will love her FURever! Children in her new home should be 10 years old or older please. Penny is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. If interested, please fill out an application at njshpetrescue.org  Please NOTE- You MUST live within 90 minutes of Chester, NJ to apply.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 10, 2025, 6:50 pm

Story
My name is Ike. I am almost 4 years old and about 28 lbs. I am the full package. I am a great age, a great size and my temperament couldn't be more wonderful. I am awesome with all people, good with all dogs... I am very neutral and can be playful and calm. I am housebroken, crate trained (I don't need it though), a master cuddler and snuggler, a good walking buddy, not vocal... the list goes on! I was surrendered when my very loving and dedicated owner fell too ill to care for me. I know I brought absolute joy to my former owner and I am here to continue spreading love and happiness. I am really loving my foster home where there are humans to hang with a lot, visitors to meet and my fenced in yard. I am ever present and will give little nudges with my nose for pets and I grunt! My foster mom will tell you all you want to know when you submit an application! https://asecondchanceforziva.org/adopt/adoption-process-application/

Story
These brothers are 1 old and about 18 to 20 lbs of gentle affection. They are a touch timid to start, but not a mean bone in them. They are so bonded and even though they know they might not stay together, they are hopeful. These boys are great with other dogs (we can cat test) and anyone they meet, but it takes them a bit to come out of thier shells to play a lot. Fine with kids, but calmer, older kids might be best. They love affection and could do fine if seperated, and given the attention they each need and deserve. Truly wonderful little guys who will steal your hearts for sure - wonderful young, smaller dogs! SO cute in person. LOVABLE MUTTS ADOPTION CENTER (Pregnant Dog Rescue) is a private, in home, all breed rescue facility. We exist only on the kindness of your donations and adoptions! We pride ourselves on being an HOLISTIC center and feed only holistic foods and various vitamins and supplements to all of our dogs. LOVABLE MUTTS ADOPTION CENTER dogs are well socialized, very friendly, and in wonderful health.  We stand by our pups/dogs, and give 10 days for a refund and almost always take our dogs back at any age of their lives (often depends on dog)! LMAC has an application screening process.  All applicants are asked to provide vet references, personal references, and a home visit.  We pride ourselves in matching up the right dog with the right home. Sometimes this happens quickly and sometimes it might take awhile. We hope you understand and are willing to wait for the perfect pup for your situation. We reserve the right to turn applicants down and to change our mind about a suitable match, for we are only concerned about what is best for our dogs.  Also note that we arrange our visiting hours around your schedule, as this is a private, in home facility.  We respond to all inquiries promptly, so if you have any trouble sending us an email, or have not heard back from us within 24 hours, please, CONTACT US AGAIN and check your spam!  (We all know how emails can be at times!) Our dogs are spayed or neutered (if old enough), up to date on vaccines, wormed, heartworm tested, and free of fleas and ticks.  We temperament test our  dogs and they are all suitable for many family situations. Our dogs are well mannered, know some basic commands, and are usually housebroken within a week of being with us (if old enough).  They are in our family/home situation at this time (not in kennels or crates, although most are crate trained) and are worked with daily.  All of our dogs do well with other dogs and many do well with cats. Adoption donations vary with age, breed, vetting, and training of the dog, and range from $250 to $695 (most being $595).  (We do not tend to place puppies or small dogs with kids under 6 and reserve the right to match who WE feel would be the best homes for our dogs.)   February 8, 2025, 10:37 am
