Find Blue, At Ocean County Animal Shelter, A Forever Home
Patch wants to help 1,000 homeless dogs find loving homes by the end of September.
JACKSON, NJ — While many folks have four-legged pals to share their homes, Patch has launched an effort we hope you'll join: We want to help 1,000 dogs find their forever homes.
As part of that effort, we will be highlighting dogs that currently are waiting in shelters for someone to adopt them.
Blue is one of those dogs. The folks at the Northern Ocean County Animal Facility, 615 Freemont Ave., Jackson., say Blue is a calm boy who enjoys being pet.

"Blue would rather get attention from you instead of playing with toys, but he likes going for walks and walks nicely on a leash. Blue would do best with a family that has the time to continue working on his basic training.
Blue is a 4-year-old pit bull who weighs 53 pounds. He is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on all age-appropriate vaccinations.
