A Dog Down on Her Luck Needs a Loving Home

Meet Daisey, a dog that could be a Hollywood star!

She looks just like Petey from the "Little Rascals," but without the eye-ring. Daisey's sweet and genuine personality means that she might not really fit in with the Hollywood crowd, but she does fit in just fine with the Jersey crowd and is looking for a new home.

Daisey lived in a home and was supposed to move directly into another when the deal fell through, so she ended up at the shelter.

This cuddly "Pet Bull" is only about 4 months old. If you are lucky, she could be the new star of your family.

This Saturday is pet adoption day. Come visit Daisey and the other animals between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. at the Alex Caprio Animal Control Facility, at 311 Watchung Ave. (behind the Thomas Edison National Historical Park). 

The shelter's normal hours are Monday through Friday from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. 

For more information, call the Animal Welfare League at (973) 736-8689, or send an email to woawl01@aol.com, or go to www.woawl.petfinder.org.
