Beacon Animal Rescue, a no-kill shelter in Upper Township, has been dedicated to saving the lives of cats and dogs since 2003. The organization works to rescue, care for and place animals in loving homes while also supporting pet owners with resources and education. Serving the South Jersey region, Beacon aims to “light the way toward greater compassion and care for companion animals.”

Jersey

Here are two pups looking for forever homes.

Meet Jersey, an 8-year-old mixed-breed, mid- to large-sized boy. He is lean and athletic, most likely due to his die-hard passion for fetch. This boy truly cannot get enough of it! His greatest treasure is his orange and blue ball, which he drops at your feet if you’re taking too long to throw it across the yard. Not only is Jersey a pro fetcher, but he walks well on a leash, too. Jersey is loyal and affectionate, always offering kisses to his visitors and handlers. He is house-trained, keeping his kennel tidy at all times. Jersey was cat-tested and passed with flying colors, making him a great fit for a home with a feline roommate. He is a well-rounded, loving and handsome boy who is ready for a yard where he can play endless fetch to call his own.

Meet Bambi. At 2 years old, she lives up to her namesake from the 1942 Disney classic! Bambi is a calm, angelic and house-trained girl. She is docile and gentle, and her greatest joy in life is getting her belly rubbed. Bambi is very polite and demonstrates manners when it comes to asking for belly rubs: she army-crawls across the ground, lays down and rolls to her back, showing you that her belly is open for business! Bambi takes treats gently, and patiently waits for her turn in the yard while her playmate, Cantaloupe, gets her treats first. Bambi’s ears are of the floppy kind, which, combined with her brindle coloring and big brown eyes, makes her a true beauty queen. She walks well on a leash and is a great playmate! Bambi can be a little timid at times, but is working on being confident in new situations. If you are ready to nurture Bambi’s sweet and innocent soul and are able to give endless belly rubs, come visit her today!
