Ready for a coffee run? I’m Dunkin, an 11-month-old Beagle weighing 32 pounds of nose to the ground charm. Surrendered when young kiddo energy was too much for me, I’m now ready to brew up a more mature and calm home environment. A bit of an adventure skeptic when entering new places and meeting new faces, I’m a guy who prefers to keep his paws on familiar turf. Not a fan of too much fuss and handling, calm, gentle and respectful pets would be great ways to kick start our relationship. Offering up stuffed squeakies is a fun ice breaker and I will gladly engage with you during playtime, bouncing and bounding about. I have the potential to be a loving, loyal companion if you’ll have me. I will love you a latte!
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.
