Meet Gage, the resilient pup with a heart as big as his will to wag his tail! Gage hails from Memphis, TN, where he sadly endured a close-range gunshot wound to his back. Despite his past, Gage remains loving towards people, offering tail wags as a sign of his affection. Now in NJ after being discharged from the hospital, Gage is a friendly, energetic fellow in need of a secure, fenced-in yard where he can frolic and play. Gage's past as a stray remains a mystery, but his love for food has made training a breeze for this cheerful guy. Will you be the one to finally give Gage the loving home he deserves?

Introducing Pina: Pina's story is one of resilience and love. She was once cherished by a devoted mom who nurtured her, but sadly, unexpected circumstance led her to needing a new home after her mom suddenly passed away. Despite the loss she endured, Pina remains a bright and affectionate soul, although she may need a bit of time to rebuild her trust. A well-behaved girl who is adept at basic commands, she's an excellent companion in the home. With patience and proper introduction, Pina could potentially thrive alongside a male large breed dog.

Story
Meet Ben, an Akita whose heart matches the magnitude of his size, overflowing with love and affection! Rescued from a local shelter after being found abandoned in a hospital parking lot. Despite his rough start, Ben is a friendly and well-mannered companion who knows some commands and loves car rides. His enthusiasm for life is infectious, and he thrives on positive reinforcement. Ben is happiest when playing in the yard and is always ready for some play. Due to his size and exuberance, Ben is best suited for a home where he can be the only pet and with adults who can match his energy level. While he adores people, his size and energy may be too much for young children, so a home with older kids or adults is ideal. Ben has been patiently waiting for his perfect match and would make a wonderful addition to a family looking for a loyal and affectionate companion. Are you ready to give Ben the loving home he deserves? Please go to our website at www.bigeastakitarescue.org for an application and additional information.

Pickles is a courtesy post. Please fill out an application at rescueridge.com   and your information will be sent to his family who needs to rehome him. located in Monmouh County, NJ. Here is the information from his family:"Loves people of all ages and wants to be with you and play. He loves other dogs but not sure about cats so I say no cats. He is about 1 year old now. According to the vet, he’s a Mix. He’s Husky/Stafford Pit and perhaps Shepherd. Short hair dog. He would be great with other dogs so he can play. Knows "Sit" and "Paw." Needs room to run around. The only reason my sister needs to find him a home is because he jumps. My sister is on a cane and not sturdy. She has fallen and can no longer take chances that she will get hurt badly. He may need some training in that area. He does know some commands. He has been in a kennel but not in crate. He has gone to someone’s house who house sits about 6 dogs or so at a time. He loved it and the woman had no issues with him. He played all the time with the other dogs and even her two great Danes. I would say he’s high-energy type. He has a fear of cars, getting into a car, because he was dumped a few times by previous owner who did not take the time to be with him and dumped him on his ex who then did not want him either." Please apply to help this dog-friendly, sweet young pup find the right family to love him.

This stunning boy is Kris! He’s a 2-year-old, 75 lb Husky/Shepherd mix. Kris is exactly what you would expect from his breeds- he’s extremely intelligent, affectionate, playful, and loyal! Kris has had professional training, has mastered the “place” command along with many others and is a pleasure to walk on a leash. Kris has a very charming and silly personality and will undoubtedly bring a lot of joy to his new family. Kris would do best with an experienced adopter who will continue to reinforce his training and who can provide him with daily exercise and mental stimulation. If you enjoy walking or hiking and taking your dogs out to public places- Kris would be your perfect companion. Kris prefers a slower introduction to new people but once he is comfortable with you, he will show you his loving nature. Kris is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines.
