Programs and results
What we aim to solve
New Jersey ranks #27 in the Country for Shelter Pet Deaths Kanab, UT – Best Friends Animal Society has released its 2020 pet lifesaving findings, which gives a national overview of the number of dogs and cats that enter shelters each year in the United States, and the number of dogs and cats that are leaving those shelters alive. Of the 72,591 dogs and cats that entered New Jersey shelters in 2019, 60,957 found positive placements, for a total state save rate of 83.97%. Only 53.68% of New Jersey shelters are no-kill (a state is considered to be no-kill when every brick-and-mortar shelter serving and/or located within the state has a save rate of 90% or higher). 5,144 dogs and cats remain to be saved in the shelters that are not yet no-kill.
