Adopt This Montclair Pup: Apple

The Montclair Township Animal Shelter has a plethora of dogs and cats ready for adoption.

Apple is ready to leave the Montclair Township Animal Shelter. 

This two- to three-year-old female dog has been at the shelter for a few months and is looking for a more permanent home. Apple is shy and may need sometime to build trust, but she is very playful. 

This girl is a mutt, and your guess of her breed is as good as any other. The shelter believes she is a terrier, shar pei mix.

The shelter recommends that Apple is best suited for a quite home with either older children or none at all. 

Apple is spayed, up to date on all her shots and microchipped. The adoption fee is $150.
