A Pathway to Hope is a foster based rescue in Northern, NJ dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and adoption of abandoned dogs and cats. Our focus is on special needs cases, south to north rescue of northern breed dogs and
​local rescue of stray cats and dogs.

We are dedicated to:  

  • South to North rescue of northern breed dogs
  • Local rescue of all breeds with a focus on pitbulls
  • Rescuing dogs with special needs, medical concerns or behavior needs, specifically those overlooked as seemingly less adoptable
  • Local rescue of stray and feral cats
  • Participating in a Feral Cat Safety Initiative including trap, neuter and release, food stations, and housing for inclement weather
  • Educating the community about the need to spay and neuter their pets, proper pet care, and the commitment of caring for an animal for its entire life
  • Support of other rescues through fundraising efforts and facilitating adoptions
  • Networking with other organizations in a effort to save more animals
  • Providing opportunities for pet owners to utilize our obedience and behavioral training resources

​Lifesaving:
  • 53 cats came into our care
  • 47 cats went into forever homes
  • 33 dogs came into our care
  • 45 dogs went into forever homes
  • Live Release Rate**: 95%
**A shelter’s Live Release Rate is the number of live outcomes, divided by the number of total outcomes. At A Pathway to Hope, no animal is euthanized to make space. Euthanasia is only considered for medical necessity, with an example being if a dog or cat is suffering with a medical condition that cannot be fixed or treated and they have diminished quality of life.
