Pick your Paw Animal Rescue

Pick Your Paw Animal Rescue is a small, grassroots network of 10 to 12 animal lovers working together to rehabilitate 6 to 10 rescued dogs at a time, until that rescue is ready for placement as a companion animal. They pull dogs from local New Jersey kill-shelters, the New York City Animal Care and Control’s nightly “To Be Destroyed” List, and Philadelphia’s Animal Care and Control. They are committed to providing spay/neuter, all appropriate medical treatment, foster homes, training, socializing, and creating behavioral improvement plans for every dog that enters Pick Your Paw Animal Rescue. Pick Your Paw makes a lifetime commitment to each dog to help them become stable pets and to match them to their best forever home. Education of the adopter and general public are vital components of our program as we work to end the ease with which people give up on, and ‘throw away’ their family pets. Each dog that exits a shelter, a surrendering home, or a transport vehicle hears the same whispered words, “You are safe. You will not be hurt again. You will find your home, I promise you.” In every walk, play date, training class, adoption event or adopter interview, this promise is made good. All of their dogs are placed in foster homes. Dogs are fully vetted, providing the same level of veterinary care for the rescue dogs that they provide to our their family pets. They consult with animal behaviorists to address issues that dogs enter the program with in order to make them more highly Whoopie Pie Puddin Pie The rescue is an all dog breed rescue. They also help educate the public to create a different viewpoint of the pit bull terrier, which in shelters need the most help. Pick Your Paw Animal Rescue is a volunteer based, non- profit, 501(c )3 organization. The location of the adoption center is on the lower level of the mall by Sears. Hours are Monday and Tuesday 12pm to 6:30pm. Wed- Sat-11am to 6:30, Sunday 11am to 5:30pm.
