stSweet as her name — Meet Nilla!
This gorgeous 8-month-old bully mix is the definition of fun, love, and puppy charm! Surrendered to the shelter when her family had to move, Nilla hasn’t let it dampen her joyful spirit one bit.

Playful, cuddly, and full of wiggles, Nilla is that perfect mix of energetic puppy fun and sweet snuggle bug. She’s ready to find a forever home that will love her as much as she’ll love them — endlessly and unconditionally.

Meet Noah
This 2–3-year-old bully mix is the total package — charming, playful, and oh-so-snuggly! With a dazzling smile that could light up a room and the best head tilts you’ve ever seen, Noah is guaranteed to make you smile every single day.

He’s got a goofy, easy-going vibe and is always down for whatever — a game of fetch? Yes please! A nice walk around the block? Let’s go! Couch snuggles and belly rubs? Don’t mind if he does! He’s also a smart cookie who already knows his basic commands and loves to show them off (especially if there’s a treat involved).

But as joyful as Noah is, life in a kennel is starting to wear on him. He dreams of a home where he can truly relax — a cozy spot on the couch, a yard to run in, and a person (or family) to love forever.

If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion with a smile that never quits, Noah is your guy. Come meet him — he’s been waiting just for you. Please apply to adopt Noah at bfdaaa.com at Best Friend Dog and Animal Adoption, Inc in Cranford, N. J.

LOOKING FOR A BEACH BUDDY? Meet Hugo – Your High-Energy Adventure Buddy!
Those eyes! Hugo is a stunning 17-month-old ~Staffordshire Terrier/Pointer mix who is ready to find his forever home. Neutered, vaccinated, and housebroken, Hugo is an athletic, intelligent, and affectionate dog looking for the right match.

Hugo is available for adoption through Best Friend Dog and Animal Adoption, Inc. in Cranford, NJ. This energetic and funny pup bonds deeply with his person and thrives with an owner who understands his high-energy needs. He’ll shine in a home that can provide plenty of stimulation, activities, and structure to keep him happy and engaged. At the same time, Hugo loves to snuggle and enjoys quiet moments, making him a great balance of active and affectionate.

Hugo is dog-tolerant on walks but would do best as the only pet in the home so he can soak up all your love and attention. Due to his energy level, a home with older kids who can keep up with his playful spirit would be ideal.

A top-level PSA trainer has evaluated Hugo and said he would excel in dog sports! He’s currently undergoing obedience training and socialization, making him an even more amazing companion. Whether you’re looking for a running partner, a dog sports champion, or a loyal and loving best friend, Hugo is ready to be your perfect match.

Maximus is all set for some summer fun with YOU. Please adopt this little powerhouse puppy at bfdaaa.com at Best Friend Dog and Animal Adoption, Inc in Cranford, N. J.
Meet Maximus!!!! He is quite the combination of Chihuahua and Pomeranian. Two of the most opinionated breeds around. Maximus is about 7 years old and has a personality all his own. He is only for experienced Chihuahua or small breed owners. Maximus is just like many of your typical small breeds. Once he knows you, he loves you. He is extremely cute and food motivated which helps in winning him over. Maximus must go into an adult only home with very minimal access to children. He does not do well with commotion, loud noises or anyone rushing up to him. All the things children like to do. His ideal home is a retired couple or individual that can devote time and energy to his needs. Being a semi-senior he does not require extensive exercise or stimulation. A comfy couch, some walks and a lot of treats and he is a happy boy. Maximus has a clean bill of health and recently had a dental so he is ready for his next chapter. Here is Maximus's video: https://youtu.be/w1xrnTNNNY0?si=b0O0RrVggHtsJ3oL

Koda is a stunning Lab mix who was rescued with his sister Molly from an overcrowded puppy mill situation. Koda was extremely shy when rescued but is now blossoming into a big mush!!! Koda is about one year old and absolutely loves to be outside running in the yard and playing with toys. He is currently learning to walk on a leash and is doing very well. He loves other dogs and would do extremely well in a home with another super-friendly, confident and loving dog who can show him the ropes of home life. Koda is currently in a foster home with his sister but they will NOT be adopted together. Siblings do not do well together when they mature. He lives for the butt scratches and belly rubs and will roll over any chance he gets in the hopes of getting all the pets. He is crate-trained and potty trained. Koda is still slightly shy when meeting people and doesn't do well with commotion so an adult only home or with older kids will be required

Meet Hiro, a sweet and loving 4-year-old mixed breed with a heart of gold. After a tough start in life, Hiro has made remarkable progress and is now thriving without the need for any medication. Despite his resilience, kennel life remains challenging for him, and he longs for the peace and comfort of a stable home.

Hiro is a tender soul with a touch of insecurity, but his love for his trusted humans runs deep. Once he forms a bond, he’ll be your most loyal and affectionate companion, always ready for cuddles and quiet moments together.

Hiro is dog-tolerant and has previously lived with small children. However, he thrives best in a calm, predictable household, as loud noises and busy environments can make him uneasy. He’s searching for a foster or forever family who can provide the love, patience, and sense of security he so greatly deserves.

If you’re looking for a gentle, devoted companion who just needs a little extra reassurance, Hiro is ready to fill your home with unconditional love. Will you be the one to give him the peaceful life he’s been waiting for?
