Toms River, NJBreed: Mixed Breed
Weight: 15 lbs
Age: 7 years old
Gender: Male
Hi! My name is britt! My love for animals trumps my love for anything else in this world. They just are.. better than us humans in my opinion lol but the idea of neighbors helping out other neighbors’ dogs is such a sweet idea and I love it! I actually had a similar idea but had no clue how to start it up, so I’m glad someone else managed to do it. I’m so happy to be here! Mosh, my dog, is turning 7 this year! I adopted him from a shelter when he was 2 years old. I was living in Los Angeles at the time, because I moved there for about 2 years and then flew back home to NJ when the pandemic hit. So long story short, mosh flew all the way across the country with me from a shelter in Los Angeles! He seen snow for the first time these last few years and I’m not sure how he feels about it. I don’t know his exact birthday so I just made one up. I can’t believe anyone would give him up and I’m SO lucky to have gotten the chance to scoop him up. He’s my best friend and companion and I couldn’t have asked for a better doggo. He is friendly with people, kids, other animals etc. but he doesn’t like when certain dogs get too up in his face and don’t give him space so he will get annoyed by that, but that’s about it. We can always do a test run and see if our dogs like each other before going any further but I’m excited to meet my fellow dog moms and dads!

Oakley
Toms River, NJBreed: Mixed Breed
Weight: 50 lbs
Age: 1 year old
Gender: Male
Hi my name is Amber I am a registered nurse in Tom’s River with an at home petting zoo all my own! I have 5 rescue animals that started with two kitties (mila & milo) and then grew into my third baby (uzi) and my fourth and final kitten Simba! After four cats I thought we couldn’t possibly get a dog and then our friends rescue in Puerto Rico needed stateside fosters and in popped out little Oakley man to complete our farm!! I live in a two story home with my fiancé with most of the house dedicated to our fur babies since we’re years away from babies of our own! Oakley is the best man who just turned one and is coming into himself amazingly!! Since I look at him like my literal son, the thought of leaving him with someone who is not family petrifies me and I’m sure any (new) dog mom might relate? Or maybe I’m just dramatic but it does to show how much I personally love these guys (more) than people!! On a side note, I am a registered nurse and feel very comfortable giving medications- my oldest baby milo was a diabetic for a year and I had to rework my schedule to make sure I was there twice a day for him to give him his insulin shots! So trust me way I say there is little k can’t handle :)
