Adopt A Pet

Dog rescue in Freehold, NJ

Adopt-A-Pet was founded in 1984 and is a non-profit, all volunteer organization dedicated to finding homes for animals who need them. Adopt-A-Pet is different from most shelters and rescue organizations in that any animal who comes through our doors will not be in danger of being euthanized. Many animals have problems that are solved if given the right treatment and training, these dogs are kept in foster homes until adopted. Adopt A Pet is the proud sponsor of Puppy Mill Awareness Day, for more info go to WWW.puppymillawarenessaap.org
