I'm Cash, and I'm a sweet, energetic boy, who loves to have my belly rubbed, run with other dogs, and above all else go hiking and swimming (if you didn't know better and you saw me in the water, you might swear I was a fish). I know a lot of commands and I try really hard to pay attention when my foster mom is talking to me but sometimes life is just a little too crazy for me to be able to listen, especially when I am in the city. The city makes me a little crazy because I am a bit obsessed with wheels (bicycles, motorcycles, skateboards) and a little overwhelmed by crowded situations, so I'd love a home outside of the city without all the distractions and with places where I can run. I was kept in the mud room for the first year of my life because the family that bought me from a pet store decided I had too much energy to live in the house and didn't want to clean up after me when they left me in the crate. Because of this I am a little bit of an anxious boy. My foster mom tells me I need an experienced owner to help me with my anxiety and to teach me the world is really a safe place. Please open up your heart to me, I will love you more than you thought possible! COFFEE AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIER/GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG MIX 3.5 YEARS Hello, my name is Coffee and I'm extra sweet! That's a real surprise considering that, when I was rescued, I was being dragged around with a chain and beaten with a baseball bat. I don't know why the kids who were doing that to me thought it was a good idea, I was just a 6 month old puppy and I had never done anything to them. Even so, I LOVE LOVE LOVE people and my foster mom says I am her favorite foster dog EVER! I love to give kisses and will sit for hours if you're petting me and giving me love. I have been in foster care a LONG LONG time and no one can figure out why since I am one of the sweetest, most comical dogs. I'm a 3.5 years old female, about 70 lbs, and I would really love to finally get the chance to go to my own forever home. I'm picky about the dogs I'll play with [I do like boys, what can I say :) ] but if you take me home I'll love you for life! HOBBES ENGLISH SPRINGER SPANIEL 2.5 YEARS To my new family: My name is Hobbes and I am a 2 1/2 year old black and white English Springer Spaniel. I am very friendly and love people but sometimes I need some time to just be by myself and not have everyone trying to touch me. That is very hard for the kids in my family to understand so my family has decided they should help me find a new home where kids are not always trying to pet me and touch me. I like to go for walks and to run in the park. I walk very well on a gentle leader and know how to sit at the corner. I enjoy playing fetch with my rope toy or a tennis ball. I love to be close to my mom and follow her to the basement to do laundry or lie down near her in the kitchen when she’s making dinner. I know how to sit, stay and shake and will do most anything asked of me if a treat is given in return. I get very excited when people come into the house but have learned a greeting and can usually settle down after a few minutes when someone new arrives. I really take comfort in my daily routine and this helps me to feel less anxious.My 9 year old sister has trouble remembering not to approach me when I’m lying down. She doesn’t realize that sometimes I want to be near my family but not petted. I hope my new family will be able to let me initiate petting time when I come up to them.I am pretty scared of other dogs so I’ve had trouble making dog friends. I bark and pull on my lead when I pass others dogs on a walk. When I actually get to interact with other dogs, sometimes I just want to run away and hide and sometimes I will try to play, it depends on how scary I think the other dog is.My family loves me very much and hopes that my new family will provide me with a safe and loving home. Love, Hobbes. CAMMIE BEAGLE 1.5 YEARS Hi, my name is Cameron, Cammie for short, and I have had a difficult life my first short year. I am an super cute, super smart, high energy young beagle looking for a permanent home with just the right person. I found my way into rescue through a veterinarian's office in Northern New Jersey. I was at that vet' office for a while, my people brought me there one day and then just never came to pick me back up. As a result, I am a little worried about being in a cage so crate training has been hard for me. I would really love a house where I can have a room to live in instead of a crate because then I will be more comfortable. Sometimes being picked up makes me nervous too, but I know lots of commands so you can move me around with your voice if i'm being scared! I just got started on some anti-anxiety medication to see if it will help me think the world is safer, and I feel better already. I love to play ball and will fetch as long as you throw things for me. I also love to learn new tricks. Don't you think you can take me home and play fetch and teach me new tricks the rest of my life? JANE GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG/BOXER MIX 5 1/2 years old Hi, I'm Jane and I'm 5 1/2 years old. I'm pretty easy-going most of the day as an inside puppy...but if you're ready to get out and walk or play, I'll be ready before you can tie your shoes! I love the water (even if it is just splashing in the puddles of the shower after you're done) and enjoy walking and jogging (I'm most comfortable on leash) and being outside. I've graduated from three obedience classes and love working for treats by 'talking' or 'being a bear.' I'm very respectful of things that are not mine and sit quietly for treats and love. I even know some sign language (sit, stay, up, down, speak). Whether we do those things or not, I love being at home next to you on the couch (only if you say it's okay) to cuddle. On days when you're busy, I love spending time snoozing and enjoying my dinosaur bone or snuggling my 'baby'. Unfortunately, I am really afraid of babies and now there is a new baby in my home and I just don't feel safe any more. I really need a new home without kids to remind me how wonderful life can be. If you take care of me with a little kibble and a little love, I'll take care of you right back! MR. WHITE AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIER MIX One Year Old Hello there, I'm Mr. White (an interesting choice of names, I know, since I actually have very pretty brown patches). I originally came into rescue with another rescue group because my owner went to jail and I was left behind and had no where to live. I was a young puppy and I didn't understand what had happened to me. The woman who saved me had a bunch of other dogs and she couldn't care for me so she found a rescue group to take me and they put me in a great foster home that loved me very much. Unfortunately, they placed me in a home in the city and it was way too scary and overwhelming for me and I just couldn't do it. I really am a country boy at heart, I love to go out and run around and play and bask in the sun (don't worry, I know to be carerful and put sun screen on my nose). I am a super sweet, super smart dog and I would really love to go to a home that wanted to take me out running or play ball with me or wrestle with me and chase me around the yard. My foster mom says thjat I am a lot of fun to work with and that I am beautiful when I run (sleek and graceful). I am crate and house trained and I know basic commands. I am a total smoosh face love bundle and would really like to be a lap dog, I don't understand I am too big for that. Don't you think I could be a good match for you? ODEN Great Dane 4 Years old My name is Oden and I am a 4 year old black male Great Dane. I came to rescue because my owner had to move and couldn’t find a new place to live that would let her take me. I love to cuddle on the couch and hang with my people. I have been told that other than counter surfing, I am a perfect gentleman in the house. I am definitely house trained and will even come get you to let you know I need to go out. I love toys, especially stuffed animals – I carry them around in my mouth and like to make piles of them. I love to go in the car and take walks. I am afraid of other dogs and so I really want to go to a home where I am the only dog, but I love cats so I would be okay living in a house with cats. Unfortunately, I have been through two different foster homes before I got to the foster home I am in now (where I will stay until I get adopted, my foster mom will make sure of that) and I am a little shell shocked by all the changes that have happened in my life. I am super sweet and my foster mom tells me I have wonderful house manners and an endearing way about me. She worries that I am being a little reserved because I am waiting for the other shoe to drop, and for things to get worse. She tells me that I will find the perfect home to help me feel like I belong and where I will no longer have to wonder whether I am going to have to move to a new place, yet again. Do you think you could be that home? ODEN IS A COURTESY LISTING, PLEASE CONTACT US FOR MORE INFORMATION SPIKE - URGENT BULL TERRIER 1-2 Years Old Hi, I'm Spike and as I am sure you can tell, I am a super cute pup, my brindle coat suits me I think. I am sweet as sugar and I love to cuddle and snuggle with people. In fact, I really do think you should know I am a lap dog, and trust me when I tell you I can make myself fit in any lap. I like to give hugs and to play wrestle and chase with my foster mom. I am smart and like to train, I really LOVE peanut butter. I am in URGENT need of a foster home where I can be the only child - I can't live with other dogs or cats. I was raised in an environment where there were many dogs and I didn't get enough quality one-on-one time with people, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE people so cares4pets promised me when I went to my foster or adoptive home, I could be the spoiled prince. Don't you think you would like to be the one to love and spoil me, common, I know you do and I am just waiting to hear from you! MR SWEATERS AMERICAN BULLDOG MIX 2 Years Old Hi! My name is Mr. Sweaters and I am a happy boy! I had a rough start at life, but was lucky enough to find a wonderful home 2 years ago. My family takes great care of me and loves me very much, but they came to discover that children make me very anxious. They want to start a family of their own one day, and now must find me a terrific new home where I will not have to be worried in my own home because there is a new baby. My mom describes me as exuberant - I love people! Nothing makes me happier than to have someone to play with and then to snuggle up to when we're done. I may be a big boy, but that won't stop me from trying to sit on your lap. I am very smart and know my basic commands, I really want to please and I also love treats so you could teach me all sorts of new tricks. My family is devastated to part with me but are excited to find me the perfect home - could it be you? GRADY STAFFORDSHIRE BULL TERRIER 3 Years Old Hi! I'm Grady and I'm a really adorable Staffie! You might be fooled by my serious expression, but I wanted to tell you that I'm really just a goofy laid back guy. I'd really like nothing more than a few walks or runs and then to sleep on the couch while we watch TV. I'm about 3 so I could still use some basic training. The good news is my foster mom uses a crate and she says I'm good with that, I'm almost housebroken and I like treats so training is fun! I have a best friend too - which is lucky. We run around in the yard together and wrestle, so in my new home I wouldn't mind another dog either. Please tell my friends at cares4pets if you think I'd be a good match for your family! PABLO AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIER MIX 1-2 Years Old Hi! As you can probably tell from my pictures I have a sad story for you. I was running in the park (and not doing well) and then I got trapped! It turns out that was a good thing though, now I belong to a rescue group. I have mange that is being treated, I get 3 meals a day and I'm gaining weight really well, I have lyme disease but I take my medicine every day and I'm getting better. I also had an old fracture of my left front leg but that's healed and doing ok. I had it rough, but the good news is I LOVE LOVE LOVE everyone, I'm super sweet (ok, I'm a little over-excited, but it's great to have friends!). I like other dogs too, but I can't live with cats. I'm a little guy, only about 40-45 lbs once I gain the weight I should. I'd love someone to spoil me and make up for the bad things - would you be my someone? CODY AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIER MIX 1-2 Years Old Hi! I'm Cody and I love everyone I meet. I also like other dogs, basically everyone is my friend! I'm super sweet and very handsome, wouldn't you like to take me home? I'm learning new commands, house training crate training and some other basics, but my new owner will have to help continue to teach me things, I'm a big puppy and I'm only about a year old, so I'll be tons of fun, I promise! ZENA AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIER MIX 5 Years Old Hello everyone, I am Zena, but my foster family calls me Z. My previous owners put me in the kennel while they went on vacation and just never came back for me, so now I am looking for a forever home. I am a little timid at first, until you get to know me, then I will be your best friend. I love getting all of the attention, so I would prefer being an only child, but I do get along very well with my foster brother. I am not sure how I feel about cats or children just because I have never been around them very much. I enjoy learning commands, and especially love getting rewards. I do know how to sit, give paw and lie down. I am a very smart girl. I am around 5 years old, but I act like a puppy. Please take me home with you...I will be your best friend. CONQY - URGENT AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIER MIX 1-2 Years Old My name is Conqy and I am counting my lucky stars that I am here today to introduce myself to you. I was brought into a vet's office by a really nice person who picked me up off the street. I was super skinny but beyond that, I had this horrible wound that encircles my entire body. They told me I was going to have to have surgery. When they had to clean me up, I just lay there and kissed their faces while they worked on me. I am a super sweet boy who just wants someone to love me. I am also told that I am super pretty. I don't know what Blue Brindle means but they keep saying that I am a gorgeous Blue Brindle. I am in a temporary place to get better from my surgery, which went very well, and put on some weight (and I LOVE food so I am sure that will not take too much time) and I am ready to go to a new home really soon, and Cares4Pets assures me that my new home will love me and take care of me forever, as opposed to my last home. I am crate trained and learning basic commands and my temporary foster mom is working with me on house breaking. Do you think you might be a good match for me, if so howabout you help a fellow out and take me home? AMY TERRIER MIX 1-2 Years Old Amy was found as a stray running with Stewart (also available for adoption). She's VERY sweet, has never met a person she doesn't love and is fine with dogs, cats and kids. She's likely a small terrier mix with some staffie/pit. Amy is new to rescue, please email us for more information. STEWART MASTIFF/LABRADOR RETRIEVER MIX 1-2 Years Old Hi! Stewart is about 1 year old, he was a stray running with Amy (also available for adoption) and is very sweet. He is about a year old, he will likely be 80-90 lbs when grown. He's new to rescue, but please email us for more information. JADE CAIRN TERRIER SHIH TZU MIX 1 Year Old Hi! I'm Jade, and I have a sad story. I had people once, but they didn't take good care of me. I had a litter of puppies and I'm only a year old. As soon as they took my puppies away they took me to the pound, I was really sad. I was all matted and scared, but I found some friends. They took me home, cleaned me up and now I have an ugly haircut, but I feel MUCH better. They also said I don't have to have puppies any more - now I get to be a puppy and have a happy family. Please take me home! JOEL RAT TERRIER BEAGLE MIX 6-12 Months old Hi! I'm Joel, I'm a super fun guy. I LOVE to play fetch and I'm a pretty active little guy, so I'd like a home who loves to run around just as much as me, but then at the end of the day I'd love a lap to curl up on and sleep. I'm sort of the best of both worlds! I'm still settling in at my foster home, there are other dogs and cats there, which is lots of fun. My foster mom says I'm still "such a puppy", so I guess that means I'm not quite a year old yet. I am crate trained and I'm learning about house training, she says I'll pick everything up really quick because I'm so smart. I'm about 15 lbs and I'm done growing. No one knows what mix I am, but I'm SUPER cute, wouldn't you like to take me home? JOE SHIH TZU POODLE MIX 2-3 Years old Hi! I go by Joe, and I'm a pretty chill guy. I was just rescued from the shelter and I was really matted but otherwise I'm doing ok. They found me as a stray, which is silly because I definitely was someone's pet, I know some commands, I'm house trained and I was groomed a little bit ago. I'm mostly a lap dog, and I'm about 2-3 years old so I'd really love someone to be my new best friend. MACI CANE CORSO MASTIFF 7 weeks old Hi! My name is Maci and I have a sad story for you. I came from someone who was breeding their dogs but didn't want me because something was wrong with my arm. They took me to the SPCA all by myself, and I didn't even know what was going on because I was just born! Since I didn't have a mom I was bottle raised by my family at cares4pets, I got lots of love and attention. I would really like a forever home with someone who has had mastiffs before or who can continue to work with me since I didn't have a mom to teach me anything! Is that you? SAMMY KEESHOND/BORDER COLLIE MIX 9 Years Old Sammy is a courtesy posting and has not been evaluated by cares4pets. Please contact us for more information. Hi! My name is full name is Samson, but I go by Sammy. I have wild hair and am stronger than I look. I am 9 years young. My favorite hobbies are lying by your feet, napping, getting ear and tummy scratches, napping and walks followed by a nice long nap. My mom has been going through a rough time. She lost her job, we moved from TN to PA, and then my sister Maggie the bulldog got sick and had to go to doggie heaven. It has been a rough time for us all! I miss Maggie a lot. She was my buddy. Mom is staying with family who has a dog that only likes people, so I have been staying with a really nice couple. But they can't keep me any longer. They both work and I don't like to be left alone. So I need to find a new home preferably with kids. I love kids?.They like my soft hair and I like the scratches and treats they give me. I would prefer a home where someone is almost always home or maybe a home with another dog to play with when the humans are gone. But no cats! I really don't like cats HANNAH SCHNAUZER/POODLE MIX 1-5 Years Old Hannah is new to rescue, please email us for more information
