Skippy This little guy will melt your heart; he’s already a staff fave. He’s about 25 lbs and a year old. He has the markings of a border collie but he has a long body so maybe some Corgi? He’s a Borgi!! Skippy is VERY energetic. He will need lots of mental and physical exercise. He always seems to be smiling. Loves to go for walks and also run around in the agility pen. He does not bring the ball back but will chase it. He really likes being with people and can’t wait to get out and play! Definitely a special little dog with a beautiful coat of fur and gorgeous eyes! Skippy can be a little mouthy (common with these breeds) so we are recommending a home with kids 12+.

Shadow Shadow is a gorgeous 2 1/2 yr old mix. We do know this boy was adopted out shortly in the previous shelter but was returned because he was not great with the 1 year old child in the home. We are looking for an adult only home or one with older teenagers. Little ones seem to bother Shadow. Other than that he is a great dog looking for his forever home. Please come meet him today!! Kids 15+

Mookie Mookie was adopted out from us as a kitten. He is now 2 years old and returned because he had a urinary tract infection and the owner did not want to treat it. He had one in the past and was on prescription cat food and was doing great. Then another cat was brought into the home and he started having accidents...stress causes UTI’s...... so Mookie was returned. Mookie is happier being the only pet in the home but he does get along with kids. He will need to be on C/D stress dry cat food for life so he remains healthy. This sweet loving boy loves to be brushed and so deserves a home where he won’t be cast out again!

May 27th, 2016 The Ocean County Gazette - www.ocgazette.news 9 Manchester Township—The Manchester Township POLICE Police Department is proud to announce that six new from page 1 Auxiliary Police Officers took their oaths on May 23, 2016, during a ceremony in the Municipal Complex Civic Center. These Auxiliary Police Officers were sworn in to their volunteer positions before Chief Lisa Parker, other Manchester Township Police Officers, and their friends and family. The graduation marks the completion of training which began on April 17 and concluded on May 22 of this year. The officers completed approximately 50 hours of training and will begin field training by current Auxiliary Police officers. While the State of New Jersey requires only 36 hours of training for Auxiliary Officers, Manchester far exceeded the State minimum requirement. “As an Auxiliary Officer in Manchester Township, you’ll have the opportunity to be surrounded by some of the best Police Officers in the State,” said Chief Lisa Parker, who also commended the recruits for volunteering their time to better their community. “This is a great accomplishment for all of you. Today is a proud day.” Manchester Township Police Officers who served as instructors for the Auxiliary Police Academy included Sgt. Richard Mazza, Ptl. Jason Wiener and Ptl. Patrick Cervenak.

Dr. Norman D. Hungerford to Be Honored at 41st Annual Garden Party RUMSON - Monmouth County Historical Association’s 41st Annual Garden Party will be held from 5-8pm on Sunday, June 26 at a private Rumson residence. It is with pleasure that we announce that Trustee Dr. Norman D. Hungerford will be our honoree this year for his support of historic preservation throughout Monmouth County. Norman has served on the Board of Trustees for the past 8 years and has been an active member, to say the least, of its Buildings and Grounds committee. Norman has not only had vision for each of the properties, but has then gone on to oversee the projects to their completion, often using many of his own resources. Norman’s commitment to assisting charitable organizations in Monmouth County is impressive. He has been involved with each of the Visiting Nurse Association of Central New Jersey’s “Stately Homes By-The-Sea” show house events. The Quaker Meeting House, the Borough of Shrewsbury, the Shrewsbury Garden Club, the Monmouth Reform Temple, Rumson Country Day School and Isles are just a few of the beneficiaries of Norman’s expertise and services over the years.

In announcing the honoree, President Linda Bricker stated “we are grateful Dr. Hungerford’s tireless work on behalf of the Association and his support has made our historic properties flourish. His dedication, generosity and commitment to history and historic preservation are truly deserving of this honor.”
