Noel

🎁✨ Meet Noel — our tiny Christmas miracle in the making. ✨🎁<br/><br/>Noel is an approximately 8-month-old Pit mix who came to us as a stray, and this sweet girl is wrapped in fear tighter than a holiday bow. When our Officer gently got her out of her kennel, she trembled like a little ornament in the wind and clung to our officer as if they were the only safe thing in her world. ❄️💔<br/><br/>In the office, she tried to explore, taking the tiniest snowflake-sized steps… but her fear kept pulling her back. She wasn’t interested in treats, toys, or anything festive — she just curled up beside our officer, hoping the world would soften.<br/><br/>But then… a Christmas blessing.<br/>🎄 Cindy Lou (now pending adoption!) stepped into the room, and suddenly Noel’s spirit began to glow. ✨<br/>Her tucked little tail lifted and started to wag like a jingle bell. She followed her dog friend, explored, and even played. With the help of a gentle dog buddy, Noel’s confidence blossomed like magic.<br/><br/>For Noel, we highly recommend a calm, easy-going dog friend — one who will guide her, not overwhelm her. She met an older high-energy dog, and it was simply too much for her tender heart. Slow and steady wins this Christmas story. ❤️<br/><br/>She was fine with cats (mostly just terrified of them), and with time she’ll warm up to kids — but respectful, calmer homes will be best for her. She’ll need training, manners, and leash work… things she was likely never taught. But she has the biggest heart ready to burst into the season.<br/><br/>🎅❤️ Noel is a little girl with a whole lot of love waiting to shine. This Christmas, help her find the safe, cozy home she’s been dreaming of.<br/><br/>She is located at 📍1200 North Delsea Drive Clayton NJ 08312<br/><br/>💌 Adoption application: https://www.gloucestercountynj.gov/FormCenter/Animal-Shelter-5/PreAdoption-Application-50
