Break out the tiara because I’m Princess, a 6-year-old Lab Retriever Mix weighing 48 pounds of low-rider royalty! During a recent day out with a volunteer friend, I was described as a perfectly wonderful house guest! Inside, I’m a calm, quiet and curious lady, who will be your loyal shadow asking for all pets you can provide. Once outside and I feel the grass under my paws, it’s game on! Going on long hikes, playing fetch, and getting the zoomies is what I’m all about! If you are looking for a best friend who loves belly rubs, then life with me would be happily ever after!
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.
