I’m Buck, a 2-year-old Pitbull Mix weighing 75 pounds. Found as a stray after my owner didn’t take care of me, I’m now looking for my second chance!
Roaming the streets has made me a bit cautious, so it may take me some time before I settle into new places. Meeting new faces is something I enjoy because I am one friendly and curious dude! I don’t know you and you don’t know me though, so it’s still best that we take things slow. Time will be our best friend as we work on building a strong and trusting relationship!
While I do love attention, you may want to hold off on the hugs. I’m working on building my confidence, but too much handling tends to make me nervous. Calm and polite pets are the way to win me over!
In the market for one big brindle boy? The Monmouth County SPCA is open for walk-ins every day, starting at noon!
How to Adopt a Pet
Can't adopt? Join our Sponsor a Pet Program!
Adoption Hours:
Monday 12-5pm
Tuesday 12-5pm
Wednesday 12-7pm
Thursday 12-7pm
Friday 12-7pm
Saturday/Sunday 12-5pm
We only do adoptions in person (please bring all family members).
We will ask you to fill out an Adoption Survey and speak with an Adoption Counselor to help find your perfect match!
You can save time and fill out a survey online, they are also available at the shelter. Completing a survey does not secure any animal for adoption. You do not need to submit a survey to visit, nor do you need to receive a response to a survey to visit. The survey is NOT an application that needs approval.
Adopting a pet is a lifelong commitment, so finding the right match is very important.
Finding the perfect pet takes time. The process usually takes at least an hour, so please plan accordingly. All adoption paperwork must be submitted to the front desk one hour before closing.
Adopters are encouraged to bring their own carrier or leash and collar.
