Story
Meet Dillon. He's a sweet and energetic 3 year old pitbull mix at around 68 lbs. He absolutely loves love and is a huge cuddle bug. In the time we have had him, he has never known a stranger and wants scratches from every person he meets. He loves any chew toy he can get and will chase any ball you throw though he doesn't quite understand the concept of fetching yet. He is still working on his manners but is very quick to please. We think he would be happiest as a solo dog mainly because he wants all of your attention and love. For more information please message Tonya at 870-318-4161 or email t.maloy@yahoo.com Message tonya for an application

Story
WISE is entirely volunteer-run and all of the donations made to our rescue go directly back to the animals in our care. By partnering with veterinary practices that support our work, we are able to save animals’ lives and restore them back to health. While some animals only need standard care, others require more extensive veterinary or behavioral care. Regardless of which dog you are applying for, we are looking for adopters to support our program with an adoption donation. The donation may or may not be directly applied to care of the dog you're adopting but rather goes toward supporting all of the dogs in the rescue. We appreciate the understanding of our potential adopters. Please keep this in mind prior to applying. Name: Barbara Breed: Pit Bull Terrier mix Age: 7 years old Gender: Female Why did she come to WISE? Barbara was rescued from a local municipal shelter where she had severe pneumonia. WISE saved her and immediately got her necessary medical care and she is now thriving with her foster family! Home Recommendation: Barbara is a sweet girl who would love a family who will shower her with affection! She is an easy-going gal, ready for an adventure or to snuggle up on the couch! Personality:Barbara is a couch potato and loves being with her favorite people. She is very easy to please and happiest outside or snuggling next to you. Barbie loves to go on walks and check out the neighborhood. She is calm but also has a fun-loving nature. She enjoys playing fetch and spending time outside in her foster's yard. Barbie is sweet and even tempered. With a heart of gold and a love for squeaky toys, Barbara's sweetness knows no bounds. Give her a pat, and you've got a friend for life – she's as loyal as they come. Kids: Above the age of 6 due to her stature Dogs: Yes, Barbara does well with other dogs Cats: Unknown Crate Trained: She is currently not being crated and is fine when left alone. House Trained: Yes! Training: Barbie is very easy to please and treat motivated! She knows sit, paw and responds well when told "no". When walking on the leash, she pulls at first, then eventually settles down and walks nicely.

BE SMOOCHIE'S FUREVER FOSTER -LIFETIME EXPENSES COVERED-PROGRAM DETAILS BELOWKissing QueenFound running along a major NJ highway, Smoochie's journey to safety was nothing short of miraculous. Rescued by a compassionate soul who couldn't turn a blind eye to this dire situation (despite having a car full of cats heading for vetting), Smoochie's resilience shines through even though she looked very neglected.No ID or chip noted and no one claimed her. Despite enduring a neglectful life, her spirit remains unbroken. Despite her past, she holds no grudges, and yearns to trust others so as long as you give her a few minutes (and some cookies!), she gives you her gentle wagging tail and her heart full of love. Woof-Facts: Name: Smoochie, Smooch Breed: Pitbull Weight: 50 lbs Age: 3 years Gender: Female  Health: UTD on vaccines, healthyForever home recommendations: Smoochie is quite loving.

Smooch likes walking, hiking, sniffaris, cuddling, spooning, and snuggling.Dogs: She would do best as the only pet.Cats: NoCrate trained: Yes, but long term crating may stress her.House trained: Yes Personality: Smoochie is a bit shy with new people but seeks attention and company. She is great in the car and would be great on a road trip or running errands.  How did Smoochie find herself at Rescue Haven Foundation: Smoochie was darting through traffic on a major highway but her rescuer is a friend of ours who was in the right place at the right time. Smoochie is fully vetted and healthy and will be spayed prior to adoption.

Story
Woof Facts: 1 y/o, male pittie mix Sweet, playful & loves dogs Needs a home with a doggie role model to teach him the ropes Someone who can expose him to the outside world and help him with training and socialization  Typical puppy behavior  Takes his medications easily and fostering covers his medical needs Someone local (Northern NJ)Our sweet little boy, who is now 6 months old, is growing into a big, sweet boy. He came to us at 7 weeks old after someone threatened to dump him on the street to fend for himself.Phoenix has been diagnosed with congenital hydrocephalus. This is a birth defect where there is an abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the skull commonly known as "water on the brain".We have started him on steroids to help decrease the production of cerebral spinal fluid. His case is considered mild-moderate and many dogs born with this condition are often able to live happy and fulfilling lives. Plus, Phoenix is full of joy and zest for life, so we know he is determined to grow old with a loving family!  Phoenix is looking for foster or adopter. He is a growing boy who will benefit from socialization and exploration of the world around him.Phoenix is a sweet puppy with a heart as big as his dreams. Despite facing the challenges of hydrocephalus, his mild to moderate case doesn't dim his playful spirit or his capacity for love.Hydrocephalus doesn't define Phoenix. It simply adds to his uniqueness, making him all the more special. With the right care and support, Phoenix can thrive and blossom into the amazing dog he's meant to be.Phoenix is in search of a foster home near northern NJ with another dog where he can continue his journey learning and surrounded by love.If you have a dog who could serve as a role model and teacher for Phoenix, Your furry friend could show Phoenix the joys of playtime, the comfort of companionship, and the security of a loving pack.Please consider opening your doors to him. Your kindness could make all the difference in his life, offering him a second chance at happiness and a bright future filled with love.We are committed to supporting Phoenix as he grows and develops and will help with getting him for rechecks with our vets. So if you are already in love (I mean, really how could you not be!)

Story
Drako is the sweetest, handsomest, and most positive boy. He is quite energetic and loves to go for long walks, adventures, and play. He absolutely loves people and has gotten along with every dog he has been introduced to. Drako gets very excited for his walks, and would need a stronger person to train and guide him on walks. He has improved so much with his leash manners, becoming one of the best dogs to walk at the shelter. He knows basic commands such as sit, and will wait patiently for cookies (while posing like the cutest boy that he is). He also will stop multiple times a walk for belly rubs, just leaning into you and plopping on the ground to get some love. He is also the most photogenic dog, always posing like a model for pictures. Although he is not too big, he sometimes forgets how strong he is. He does still have some puppy energy, so a home without young children would be ideal. All of his energy is pure excitement to be around people, and never anything aggressive at all. Drako is up to date on vaccines, neutered, and is waiting patiently to be your new best friend!
