Mia's Story

6 years old, 25 lbs. Single family home with fenced yard (not fenced patio) required.<br/>Mia is a 6-year-old Apricot Poodle weighing in at 25 pounds of energy, enthusiasm, and personality!<br/>Sadly, Mia's story began at an Amish puppy mill, where she was sold as a 'miniature' poodle. As is often the case with puppy mills, the focus was on making a sale rather than responsibly breeding dogs or ensuring families were getting the right match.<br/>Recently, Mia was surrendered to our shelter by a 76-year-old owner who simply could not keep up with her energy level. Living in a senior community without a fenced yard made it difficult to provide the exercise and stimulation Mia needs to thrive.<br/>This girl is looking for an active family with a single-family home, a securely fenced yard, and plenty of opportunities to run, play, and explore. Another playful dog may be a great fit for her, too! Mia would also benefit from some basic training to help curb her enthusiastic jumping and channel all that energy in positive ways.<br/>We often try to educate our senior community about the realities of bringing home a puppy. Puppies—and many young adult dogs—require significant time, exercise, training, and patience. Finding the right match is so important for both the person and the dog.<br/>Mia is a sweet girl who deserves a home that can meet her needs and help her become the very best version of herself. Could that home be yours?<br/><br/>*Per JSAC policy, puppies and kittens under 6 months will not be adopted to families with children under the age of 6 years.

We require you to be 21 years of age, with a valid ID to adopt from our facility. If you visit our shelter you will be taken on a guided tour by one of our volunteers to see our animals, and if you are interested, an adoption application will be supplied. Additional information will be required if you have not owned a pet in the last 5 years. The information you provide is very important to the JSAC. It helps assure us that proper annual veterinary care will be provided and the new home environment, whether it be a home, condo, apartment or other residence is appropriate. We work carefully with each family to help select the right pet for them. We do not adopt puppies or kittens 6 months of age or younger will not be adopted to families with children 6 years of age or younger.

You may interact with the animal of your choice only after your application has been approved. You MUST Call to find out the status of your application or if the adoption committee has any questions: 732-920-1600 x 0 The Jersey Shore Animal Center is dedicated to placing our animals in their forever homes through our adoption process. Due to our lifelong return policy we prefer to adopt our pets locally, so we don’t adopt out of state. We do not list our pets on Ebay or Craig’s List, nor do we sell any animal.
