2. Brodie
Young · Male · Beagle / Mixed · 14 mi from Wyncote




How handsome is Brodie. He has such great coloring and his eyes are beautiful. He has short hair and long legs for a beagle mix. Brodie is about 2 yrs old and 30 lbs. Brodie is doing good on a leash when he goes for walks. He will pull in the beginning but settles quick and enjoys the rest of the walk. Brodie is a people dog and loves to be with people and given any chance he can get, he will get in your lap to watch tv and just relax. He does love outside time too where he can run and play fetch in the yard. He is very good, he will even bring the ball back to you. Brodie has been around several different dogs of all sizes.
Read more about Brodie
He tries to interact with them and they usually ignore him. I think he would love to find a friend that wants to play with him but also he would be great as an only dog. He has not been around cats so we are not sure how he would be with them. Brodie is housebroken as long as he stays on a schedule, just like any othe dog. He is young so he does have puppy in him. He has shredded a few toys but nothing else during his play time. Just like any beagle, they will run given the opportunity, so a home where no small kids can open the door and he can run out is best for him. Brodie is very energetic and would benefit from a structured lifestyle or formal training to help him to curtail his high energypersonality. He is just a playful boy who would love an active family and a largeyard to run around. This boy would get along with any dog, He always has asmile on his face!He wants to be everyone’s friend Right now he jumps upon everyone to say “Hi, Here I am”. He is so sweet and friendly. We areworking on his manners and appropriate greetings. He is very smart. Learned“sit” and “down” in just a few days.

3. Stellaluna
Puppy · Female · Whippet / Labrador Retriever / Mixed · 14 mi from Wyncote




Meet this sweet little girl! At about 5 months old and and only 15 pounds, we feel she may be a Whippet–Lab mix, though her breed is a guess. She was found alone beside a highway in the middle of nowhere, and she bravely went right up to the person who stopped to help her. She’s affectionate, loves to snuggle, and likes staying close to her foster person. She’s doing great with the foster’s cats and gets along with other dogs. When meeting a new dog, she may be a little hesitant and give a small growl at first, but once she has a moment to settle in, she’s comfortable.She’s nearly house-trained, with only a couple of accidents.

She sleeps in her crate at night; she may whine briefly when she first goes in, then settles down. And if you’re looking for a bed snuggler, she’d be delighted to cuddle up with you!This loving girl has already won over her foster family and they can't say enough about her. . She’s ready to find a caring forever home where she can share all that sweetness.

5. Rollo
Young · Male · Poodle (Standard) / Mixed · 14 mi from Wyncote




Hi! My name is Rollo and I am looking for a forever home! I was picked up as a stray by animal control and taken to a scary place called a shelter where, after no one came to claim me, I was about to be put on something bad called “the list.” Fortunately for me, BCAA saw me and said they would help me… yeah! I appear to be a Standard Poodle mix— but whatever I am, my foster mom thinks I’m one handsome dude! I had to be shaved down when I first arrived because my coat was in quite a hot mess, but just wait until all that fluffy hair grows back and it's already started.I’m a little over 50 pounds and about 18 months old.
Read more about Rollo
I’m still very much a young, energetic guy and I love being out and about. My enthusiasm can be a little overwhelming for smaller dogs, so I would do best with a dog who enjoys my playful energy and can keep up with me. But when it’s just me and my people, I’m a total cuddle bug and absolutely love attention. I’ve shown some interest in cats, although I haven’t been aggressive toward them. I’m also crate trained and have done really well in my crate without accidents or destroying my bedding. That said, I’d much rather be hanging out with you and will definitely let you know if I hear or see you and think I’m missing out!I’m pretty good on leash, although I can pull a little when I get excited about all the fun happening around me. I’m a happy, affectionate boy with plenty of personality, and I’m ready to find a family who will give me the love, attention, exercise, and guidance I need to continue growing into the best version of myself. If you’d like to learn more about me — or even better, meet me — please fill out an application at BCAAofNJ.org.

6. Beau
Young · Male · Labrador Retriever / Mixed · 14 mi from Wyncote




Beau is a handsome 1-year-old Lab mix weighing about 55 pounds, although he’s a little on the skinny side and is working toward his goal weight of around 60 pounds. We think he may have some Hound or even Great Dane mixed in — and those long legs, slender build, and gorgeous floppy ears certainly make us wonder! Beau has the most beautiful jet-black coat and an even more beautiful personality. This boy has never met a stranger! He absolutely loves people and is always ready for pets, attention, and plenty of love. He’s great with kids, although because he doesn’t realize he’s a big boy and not a lap dog, he may be a little too much for very small children.Beau is wonderful with other dogs 30 pounds and up.
Read more about Beau
He loves running around the yard and playing with his dog friends, but he’s also respectful when another dog isn’t interested in playing. He’d love a home where he can have some room to run and enjoy his daily exercise.On leash, Beau is definitely a strong boy! He’ll need someone willing to continue working on his leash manners, and an easy-walk harness would be a great tool to help him learn. Once he gets his exercise, though, he’s not a high-energy dog and is perfectly happy to hang out with his people.Beau is also a great car rider and hops right in when it’s time to go! He knows sit and down, loves catching treats in the air, and thinks chasing a ball is pretty much the best thing ever. He does jump up to say hello, but he is very gentle about it — he’s just a big, goofy puppy who hasn’t quite realized how big he is yet! Beau is the kind of dog who will make you smile every day. He’s affectionate, friendly, playful, and eager to learn. He just needs a family who will give him some daily exercise, continue his training, and let him be the lovable goofball he is. If you’re looking for a big, goofy, incredibly friendly boy who thinks everyone is his new best friend, Beau might be your guy! Bcaaofnj.org

Oliver is a cute little guy weighing in at just 14 pounds and estimated to be around 6 years old. This sweet boy has already been through a heartbreaking change. His dad passed away, and sadly his mom was not able to keep him. Oliver was left without a home. Now he’s hoping to find someone who will make sure he never has to wonder where he belongs again. He becomes very attached to people quick so a home where someone is around more often would be perfect for him. Oliver is happiest when he’s with his people. He’s a total couch companion who would love nothing more than to curl up beside you and hang out for the day.
Read more about Oliver
He loves to snuggle on the couch with you and sleep under the covers with you. He is a true chi. He’s good with other dogs and cats too. He is also housebroken and will tell you he needs to go out by going to the back door. He is also good on a leash.Oliver isn’t a huge fan of little kids, so a home with teenagers or adults would be best for him. It is the sudden movements of the kids that makes him nervous. What he really wants is a loving person or family who will include him in their lives and give him the cozy, secure home he deserves. He is a wonderful little boy and anyone will fall in love with him immediatelyIf you’re looking for a sweet little companion who would happily claim a spot on the couch right beside you, Oliver might just be your guy!

9. Sheba
Young · Female · Beagle / Hound / Mixed · 14 mi from Wyncote




Meet Sheba! This sweet Beagle mix is about 2 years old and weighs around 33 pounds. And after almost two months in her foster home, we are so happy to say that Sheba has completely blossomed! When Sheba first came to us after spending more than a year in a shelter, she was incredibly scared and shut down. But with patience, love, and the safety of a foster home, she has discovered that life can actually be pretty wonderful. And now we’re getting to see the playful, affectionate, silly girl who was hiding underneath all that fear. Sheba is fully house trained and fully crate trained, and she is an incredibly well-behaved girl inside the house.
Read more about Sheba
She isn’t a high-energy dog, but she absolutely loves having time to play. Give her some toys and she will happily entertain herself by throwing them in the air, rolling around with them, or settling down with a good bone. Her favorite activity, though, might be playing with other dogs! She loves to play chase and roughhouse with canine friends who enjoy the same kind of play. Sheba has excellent doggy manners and social cues and does well with dogs of all sizes. A playful dog would be a wonderful match for her.She has also discovered that walks are pretty awesome! She loves getting out and sniffing all the new smells along the way. She does pull a little on leash, but her foster is working with her and she is continuing to improve. She currently requires a securely fenced yard because she is not comfortable pottying while on leash.Inside, Sheba is such an easy companion. She loves curling up on the couch and being right beside her foster. She isn’t a big barker and will generally only speak up if someone knocks on the door or another dog starts barking. She also sleeps peacefully and is perfectly happy relaxing with her people.Sheba is still a little nervous when someone reaches toward her unexpectedly, so she does best with people who understand that she may need a little time to warm up. She is especially good with kids who know to take things slowly with her at first. In fact, Sheba has even surprised some of the kids she has met at adoption events by giving them a sweet little kiss. She may still be nervous at busy adoption events, but that is not the real Sheba. Her true personality comes shining through when she is comfortable — especially when she is in a fenced yard playing with other dogs, tossing around her toys, or snuggling next to her foster. Her floppy ears, curly tail, playful personality, and sweet nature make her impossible not to love. Sheba has filled out beautifully and is now at a healthy weight, and watching her transformation over the past two months has been incredible. She went from a frightened, shut-down dog to a playful, affectionate girl who loves toys, walks, dogs, cuddles, and simply being near her people.She just needs someone who will continue to give her the patience and understanding that have helped her blossom. In return, you’ll get a sweet, funny, playful companion who will show you more of her personality every day. If you think you could be the family Sheba has been waiting for, please apply at bcaaofnj.org!

13. Bolo
Young · Male · Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed · 14 mi from Wyncote




Meet Bolo “Bo” Bolo, affectionately known as Bo, is a 55-pound mixed-breed boy who is about 3 years old—and he has one incredible story of survival.Bo spent multiple weeks in a local high-kill shelter, where he continued to lose weight and grow weaker. By the time he left the shelter with a foster, he was in such poor body condition and was so lethargic that he was taken straight to the veterinarian. He was critically anemic and needed an immediate blood transfusion. The transfusion gave him a temporary boost, but sadly, Bo began declining again. Even when he was so weak that he could barely lift his head, he still found the strength to wag his tail whenever someone came near him.
Read more about Bolo
That little tail wag said everything about Bo—he wanted to live!He ultimately needed a second blood transfusion and spent months fighting his way back to health. Bo's immune system had been severely compromised after a long battle with Babesia. Thankfully, he has now tested negative, his bloodwork has returned to normal, and his body is getting stronger and stronger. He had been taking prednisone to help support his immune system and is now successfully being weaned off because he has been doing so well. If he experiences another condition that affects his immune system in the future, he may need another round of prednisone, but he has been stable for months with no issues. And now Bo is ready for the life he fought so hard to have. Bo is absolutely thrilled to be feeling good and discovering what it means to simply be a dog. He loves having adventures, being included in everyday life, and—perhaps most importantly—knowing that there will always be someone there to care for him.He is completely housebroken and crate trained. After spending so much of his life fending for himself, Bo still gets incredibly excited when food is served. He LOVES food and treats and is always happy to supervise anything happening in the kitchen!Bo is dog-friendly and cat-friendly. He mostly lives in his own happy little world, content to explore, relax, and stay close to his people. He peacefully coexists with the other animals in the home and generally doesn't pay much attention to them. Every once in a while, though, he gets a burst of playful energy and will happily roughhouse with his furry friends for a few minutes.He also does well in the car. In true Bo fashion, he likes to get in, hop into the driver's seat for a quick little toot of the horn, and then make his way to his spot where he settles down for the ride. Bo has spent far too much of his life simply trying to survive. Now, he wants what every dog deserves: a home, a family, a soft place to sleep, someone to love, and a place where he finally belongs.He has fought incredibly hard to get here. Now it's time for Bo to enjoy the life he fought so hard to have.If you're looking for a sweet companion who is ready to appreciate every single day with his people, Bo may be your boy. bcaaofnj.org

14. Leo
Puppy · Male · Border Terrier / Terrier / Mixed · 14 mi from Wyncote




Hi! My name is Leo, and I’m looking for a forever home where I can continue learning, playing, and being my silly little self! I was picked up as a stray by animal control and taken to a super scary place called a shelter. After my hold time was up, I was in danger of being placed on something very bad called “the list.” Luckily for me, BCAA said YES to helping me! Thank goodness, because the vet says I’m only about 5–6 months old, and I have my whole life ahead of me!I appear to be some type of scruffy terrier mix and weighed about 20 pounds when I first went to the vet. We think I’ll stay a medium-sized dog when I’m all grown up.I’m a sweet, playful guy who loves people, attention, treats, breakfast, dinner, and pretty much anything fun! I can still be a little skittish, especially when something is new or unfamiliar, but I’m settling in more every day.
Read more about Leo
My foster mom says I’m also getting very good at getting into EVERYTHING—which apparently is what puppies do! I absolutely love other dogs! I’ve gotten along with dogs of all sizes, and I especially love my little foster dog friend. I think having another confident, playful dog in my forever home could really help me come out of my shell and feel comfortable even faster. I’ve also shown no interest in cats so far.When I first arrived in foster, I had a couple of accidents in my crate, but once I figured out that there was a schedule and I’d be getting outside regularly, I caught on quickly and have been doing so much better! I’m also learning about this whole leash thing and doing pretty well—especially when treats are involved! I’m still a puppy, so I’ll need a family who is ready to keep teaching me, give me plenty of appropriate outlets for my energy, and help me build confidence as I grow.If you’re looking for a sweet, scruffy, playful puppy with a little bit of goofy mischief thrown in, Leo might just be your guy!

15. Emmitt
Puppy · Male · Pit Bull Terrier / Labrador Retriever / Mixed · 14 mi from Wyncote




Meet Emmitt — The Last of the “E” Litter! Emmitt has been waiting so patiently for his people. His brother Eli has found his forever home, which means this sweet boy is officially the last of his litter still waiting for his happily ever after.Emmitt and his siblings had a rough start to life. They were found abandoned at a county dump site and brought to a shelter before making their way into foster care. When they arrived, they were covered in fleas and ticks and had painful little pustules from ant bites. They needed veterinary care, medications, deworming, good food, and lots of TLC.Thankfully, Emmitt has come a long way! He has gained some much-needed weight, his hair has grown back, and this little guy is bouncing back beautifully.
Read more about Emmitt
At 20 pounds and 3.5 months, Emmitt is the smaller of the two boys, and while he can be a little shy at first, once he warms up, he turns into a BIG cuddle bug. He loves being around people and enjoys playing with the resident dogs in his foster home, who come in all different sizes and are both boys and girls.Emmitt is doing so well with all his puppy lessons! He’s working on potty training, not jumping, sit, and his absolute favorite command: “Yes!” because he knows that means treats are coming! He’s also learning “touch,” which will be a helpful tool as he works on his recall.And his foster mom is especially proud of how well he’s doing with his crate! Emmitt is now sleeping in his crate all night by himself with no accidents and is also doing great with daytime crate naps. Like any young puppy, Emmitt will need a family who is ready to continue working on house training, crate training, socialization, manners, and all the other important puppy stuff. But in return, you’ll get a sweet little guy who is ready to give you all the cuddles, puppy kisses, goofy moments, and unconditional love you could ask for. Emmitt has already been through more than any puppy should. He’s been patient, he’s been resilient, and now he’s just waiting for someone to finally say, “You’re our boy.” Could you be the family Emmitt has been waiting for?Apply to adopt Emmitt at www.bcaaofnj.org!

16. Onyx
Young · Male · Labrador Retriever / Mountain Cur / Mixed · 14 mi from Wyncote




Onyx is about 1 year old and weighs 45 pounds, and he is absolutely gorgeous with his shiny black coat. We think he may be a Mountain Cur/Lab mix, but whatever his breed, there’s one thing we know for sure — this sweet boy has so much love to give. Unfortunately, Onyx has already been failed twice. He doesn’t understand why the people who were supposed to be his forever people didn’t stay. Because of that, he can be nervous around strangers, loud voices, and unfamiliar situations. He needs time to trust and feel safe, but once he does, you get to see the incredible dog underneath that uncertainty.And his foster mom says that when Onyx climbs into bed with you, his whole world changes.
Read more about Onyx
He melts into the blankets, lets his guard down, and becomes an absolute LOVE. He adores the couch, loves sleeping in bed with his person, and just wants to be close to someone he trusts.Onyx also LOVES cats and does not chase them! He is potty trained and is even learning to pace when he needs to go outside. He willingly goes out to potty, although he is still convinced the doggy door may be a terrifying portal to another dimension. Onyx is a sensitive boy who needs a quiet, patient home. Because loud environments make him nervous, we don’t think a home with children would be the right fit for him. His dream home would have someone who is home often, a fenced yard, and another friendly dog who can help show him that the world isn’t such a scary place. Most importantly, he needs someone who understands that a scared dog isn’t a bad dog — he just needs time to learn that he is finally safe.Please don’t choose Onyx because you feel sorry for him. Choose him because you’re willing to be the person who proves to him that people can stay. He doesn’t need someone to simply “give him a chance.” He needs someone who will celebrate the little victories, be patient through the hard days, and eventually look down at the dog sleeping peacefully beside them and realize that the scared boy they brought home has become their very best friend.Onyx has already been failed twice. We are determined that there will not be a third.Third time’s the charm, sweet boy. It has to be. If you think you could be the person Onyx has been waiting for, please apply at bcaaofnj.org.

17. Brownie
Senior · Female · Labrador Retriever / Mixed · 14 mi from Wyncote




At 8 years young and 60 pounds, Brownie is the perfect mix of wisdom, sweetness, and just the right amount of playful spirit. After spending years in a shelter, she’s mastered what it means to be a truly great companion—loyal, loving, and always by your side.Brownie is a smart girl who enjoys figuring out puzzles and games, and she still has a little bounce in her step for gentle walks and playtime. She’s crate trained, but if she had her way, she’d happily trade that in for a cozy spot next to you on the couch.She’s independent when she wants to be, but never too busy for a cuddle session. Brownie is dog selective, and while we’re still learning which dogs she may get along with, she would likely be happiest as the only dog in the home where she can soak up all the love.Through everything life has thrown her way, Brownie has stayed brave, kind, and full of love.

18. Cody
Young · Male · Red Heeler / Beagle / Mixed (medium coat) · 14 mi from Wyncote



Meet Cody!! This 30-pound lovable fellow is about 6 months old and is a sweet mix of heeler and maybe a sprinkling of beagle. He keeps himself busy--inside, following the Swiffer is a very popular activity; outside, collecting sticks is a must-do. He loves playing with the resident dogs and exploring the fenced-in yard--after all, leaves are just asking to be pounced on and plants that haven't been cut back yet are perfect places for afternoon naps. He enjoys his walks around the neighborhood and seeing birds of all sizes adds to the fun. He loves snuggling on a favorite lounge chair--as long as a foster family member provides a warm lap and blanket--plus the gentle rocking brings the final dose of comfy and eyes closed.
Read more about Cody
His foster family has been very diligent about getting him out and about for potty breaks and he is getting very good grades.
Cody is micro-chipped, neutered, and is up-to-date on all his age-appropriate vaccinations. He is ready for his next adventure--and maybe that might include you! Please email us at

20. Gunner
Male · Terrier / Hound / Mixed (long coat) · 14 mi from Wyncote





Looking for a foster and / or adopter.
Gunner is a 5 year old scruffy terrier / hound mix who weighs just under 50 lbs. Gunner landed in the shelter after having a home so he already has the hang of a number of things, Sadly, his owner fell ill and had to be hospitalized indefinitely.
Read more about Gunner
Gunner enjoys riding in the car and going for walks! He likes to follow his nose so he pulls some with just a collar, but is quite manageable with a chest-leading harness. This guy does not like crates but that is not an issue because he is already house trained. Gunner is comfortable in a home and has no issues exploring all floors of the house, so steps are not a problem. He is a cuddly guy who enjoys a dog bed and the opportunity to cuddle with people on the couch,
Gunner was an only dog but has been friendly to other dogs in the shelter and foster home. He could go with or without a dog companion. We do not have information on Gunner and cats. We would recommend Gunner be in a home more on the quiet side since that's what he was used to (no little kiddos)
If you are interested in this adorable scruffy guy, pleases email us at AlmostHome4Dogs@yahoo.com.

How to adopt from Pooch Kaboose
Loyal and loving, dogs are social animals who thrive on being upstanding members of their families. Caring for a companion animal goes far beyond providing food, water and shelter. It takes research and careful planning to bring the right pet into your home, and to make sure your lifestyle is the right one for your pet. If there are young children in your home, a puppy may not be your best bet. You may want to consider adopting a medium-sized dog over five months of age. It is a good idea to draw up a schedule of who in the family will help with the care of your new dog, including walking, playing, feeding and grooming. Don’t forget to have your new friend spayed or neutered. Please fill out the required adoption form.

Adopting a dog in Wyncote
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
