Adoptable Pets Loveable Lola


Lola our loveable pitbull is going to be going to a wonderful individual who will be giving her PRIVATE TRAINING lessons while they foster her AND help us to find her forever home.

She is already PERFECT but will be more perfect after our friends tweak her manners a bit.

Lola can already sit, down and rolls over. Needs to work a bit on come and stay!!!! She LOVES potato chips and you can take a rawhide right out of her mouth and give her a pill with no problem. She loves to just lay on the couch and do nothing next to you.

You can still contact us if you are interested and we will put you in touch with Loveable Lola.

Thanks to EVERYONE who contributed toward her surgery. She had three badly infected teeth removed and had her patella luxation repaired. She will be limping a bit for awhile but that hasn't daunted her wonderful friendly spirit.




For information on adopting Lola or to give a donation towards helping animals, see NJAFA's internet site.

Success Stories - Dempsey

"DEMPSEY"
Animal Control officers called NJAFA to ask if we would take this poor dog in that had been taken off the street and obviously been involved in a dog fight and used for dog fighting. The shelter where it would have to go would euthanize it because it had been used for fighting plus its wounds were so severe it would have been cost prohibitive to save this poor creature.

NJAFA aided poor Dempsey immediately. We raised funds to have surgery done on him immediately. Dempsey had his ear taken off because it was half off anyway. His body as you can see was scarred and battered. He was filthy dirty and thin.

Dempsey was a little lover boy and grew on the hearts of all of us. Although Dempsey was a sweet little boy and very very affectionate he could not be adopted to a family with another dog. Dempsey went to a very nice sanctuary for pitbulls and is living out his life there.

They love him and he will always have a special spot in our hearts.

This is Dempsey after he was all healed up and on the day he left for his forever home. We will never see him again but all those involved with his miraculous recovery sent love his way.

Success Stories - Norton


NORTON aka "Snort"

While driving through Camden it is very common to see little puppies foraging for food and water. They really belong to no one and have somehow managed to eek out a life on these unforgiving streets. NJAFA while on a trip to Camden to pick up animals for altering, saw this little guy loping along the street searching in garbage cans.

We scooped him up and took him to wait at the shelter for seven days. No one of course claimed him but because he was so gangly and goofy we named him "Norton" like the character in the old "Honeymooners" series.

"Snortie" got adopted to a very loving family in Jersey City. This is a picture of one of their children. Who says pitties are dangerous? Couldn't prove it by this picture!
