Bumper is a one-year old rowdy puppy who is sure to make a great companion for a very active and experienced family. Bumper came to the shelter when his owners were moving and couldn't take him along. Nothing seems to rain on this happy pups parade, not even a nice long bath. Because he is so cheerful, he tends to take all that energy and release it on people he wants to meet. Bumper can be a bit inappropriate when it comes to introducing himself to strangers. Although it is not aggressive at all, he may be too rough with young children. The shelter seeks owners who are knowledgeable of his breed and can handle his exuberant energy level. Doggie obedience classes are recommend along with long walks, hikes, runs and fetches in the yard which are great ways to knock him out by nightfall. Bergen County Animal Shelter

Dumpling is a small female Chihuahua about 10 years old. The shelter has fallen in love with this petite lovebug. She is always ecstatic to meet people and is the farthest thing from shy. She was found as a stray and brought to the facility. The shelter can not understand how no one is looking for her. Even though she is a golden oldie she still has a bunch of life and vigor left in her tiny body. With any older pooch, the shelter recommends vet checkups just to make sure she is in tip top shape.
Judd, is a friendly male Syrian hamster who was turned into the shelter because his owner had allergies. This breed of hamster must be housed separately.
Klaus came in with his brother Spencer because his owner developed allergies to the cats. Klaus is being treated for an ear infection. He has lived with children, dogs and other cats and enjoys being held. He is one year old.

Teddy, a young Papillion, came to the shelter because his owner had no time for him. The shelter says he is a whirlwind of a fellow who will need plenty of physical and mental stimulation. Walks, basic obedience, training classes, playtime and more are recommended so he can release all that pent up energy. Because he is mouthy and very hyper the shelter recommends a home without small children as they may be overwhelmed by his tenacious personality. The shelter believes that with a firm leader, he can become a more mature and mindful dog.
