Ozzy is the definition of a total sweetheart. Despite a rough start where he was kept on a chain, his spirit remains bright, trusting, and resilient. He is currently receiving gentle care to soothe some skin irritation from his previous living situation, handling every bit of treatment with quiet patience. All Ozzy wants now is the comfort of a soft bed, kind hands, and a family to call his own.

When it comes to personality, Ozzy is eager to please and wonderful with people of all ages. He is social with other dogs, fantastic on a leash, and gets thrilled whenever it is time for a car ride. Ozzy has also been cat-tested and, with a proper and patient introduction, would most likely do very well sharing a home with feline friends. At just 40 pounds, he is the ultimate portable size—compact enough to curl right up in your lap and sturdy enough for all your everyday adventures.

Ozzy is neutered, heartworm negative, and up to date on his vaccines. He is ready to trade his past for a lifetime of belly rubs, window-breeze road trips, and unconditional loyalty.

34. Hero Sussex

Young (1 year 6 months) · Female · Chihuahua / Mixed

Hero is a 1-year-old, 6 lb Chihuahua who may be small in stature but has a hero's journey of epic proportions. She is a survivor of a mass hoarding case where over 40 tiny, but tenacious, dogs were abandoned throughout two counties in northern NJ. These resilient pint-sized pups were thrown from a vehicle into the cold winter woods alone; some trapped in cages, some left wandering. Some did not make it. Hero persevered, though, and truly earned her distinguished name. Despite being found first, this wonder woman sacrificed instant safety by eluding rescuers until she brought them to her best friend: another pup named Tiny Tim who had paralyzed hind legs and was stuck by a river. Not only does Hero deserve a home, but she also deserves a medal of honor.

Read more about Hero Sussex

Hero is luckily being fostered by her human hero, the woman who helped find and save all these dogs. Hero has come such a long way from living in a crowded basement to then being tossed into the wilderness to fend for herself, terrified and alone. It's no surprise, Hero loves other dogs so she will need to go to a home with a canine companion because a sidekick always helps a main character shine. Hero's future family will understand she is a flight risk and take proper precautions to protect her and take things at her pace. She uses a pee pad inside to go to the bathroom. She is timid and skittish but can also be outgoing when she is comfortable with her surroundings. She is a dog that does not prefer to be approached but would rather take the initiative to come to you first, roll over for belly rubs, and commandeer your lap if you let her. Once you're in, your attention and pets are all she will want! She is also hysterical and loves to play; she is super-fast and jumps around the entire house like it's a parkour course. Superheroes need to train, right? She is mischievous and does have some spunk to her. She will grab paper products and run around the house with them. Although we assume she's just trying to make herself a cape. She does like to chew so be prepared to spoil her with toys and keep away anything precious, including wires.

Hero is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on immunizations. Her adoption fee is $415. Despite being a warrior at heart, Hero finally knows what it is like to be safe and truly cared for. She is sending out the bat signal for her final protector, her ultimate lifesaver to give her a hero's welcome into a furever home. If that's you, then apply right away at ehrdogs.org and tell us HERO SUSSEX NJ is looking for YOU!

35. Michael Phelps Sussex

Adult · Male · Jack Russell Terrier / Chihuahua / Mixed

Michael Phelps and Lima are two survivors looking for a special forever home. These adorable 10-pound Jack Russell Terrier mixes are thought to be between 2 to 5 years old. They came from a large hoarding situation in Phillipsburg and were among 40 dogs that were dumped from a truck in the middle of the night in Sussex County. Thankfully, they found their way to safety and have spent the last several months learning that people can be kind and the world doesn’t have to be scary.

Read more about Michael Phelps Sussex

Michael Phelps was very shut-down when he entered our rescue. In fact, he earned his name because when rescuers first arrived, he swam across an entire pond to get away from them before eventually being safely trapped. For over a month in foster, he wouldn’t allow anyone to touch him. Watching his transformation has been nothing short of amazing. Today, Michael is the life of the party and the biggest snuggle bug! He loves playing with other dogs, racing around the yard, and collecting as many dog toys as possible. His goofy personality keeps everyone laughing, and he’s always ready for fun.

Lima is the quieter, more reserved gentleman of the pair. Sweet, gentle, and shy, he takes a little time to trust but has a heart of gold. He enjoys the company of other dogs and thrives in a calm environment where he can continue building confidence at his own pace. Both Michael and Lima would do best in homes with another friendly dog to help show them the ropes and continue their social development.

While they are not bonded and can be adopted separately, adopting them together would likely make the transition easier for both boys and allow them to continue benefiting from the comfort and confidence they provide one another. A fully fenced yard is required, as both dogs can be flight risks when frightened. Their home should have older, considerate children only or no children at all as the unpredictable nature and energy of smaller children may overwhelm them. They will need patient adopters who understand that dogs from difficult backgrounds may need extra time to settle in and trust.

Both boys are neutered, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and ready to find families of their own. Their adoption fee is $415 each. Now they are looking for families who will give them the love, patience, and security they deserve for the rest of their lives so apply to adopt MICHAEL PHELPS AND LIMA SUSSEX at ehrdogs.org.
