Casper

My story

Casper is a handsome 5-year-old mixed breed with a gentle soul and a playful spirit. Neutered and full of potential, he’s an active, enthusiastic boy who just needs the right person to help him feel safe and secure. While Casper can be skittish around new people at first, once he’s had time to decompress and get comfortable, his sweet and affectionate nature truly shines. Casper would thrive in a calm, patient home where he would be the only pet and have the space and support to settle in at his own pace. A home without small children would be ideal, as he’s still working on building confidence and trust. Though he is partially house trained, he would benefit from continued training and a dedicated person willing to guide him with consistency and love. We’re posting Casper as a courtesy for another local dog rescue in hopes of giving him the extra exposure he deserves. He’s currently being cared for at Best Friends Pet Hotel in Chestnut Ridge, NJ, where he’s waiting for his chance to start fresh with a family that understands his needs and is ready to give him the forever home he’s been waiting for. If you think you could be that special someone for Casper, please call 201-889-0711 with any questions or to set up a visit. With time, patience, and love, this sweet boy will make a loyal and loving companion.If you have specific adoption or foster questions, please email: judy.atchison@yahoo.com THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN RESCUING A DOG!
