Hound Mix Surrendered By Owners, Closter Rescue Desperate For Foster Family Hound Mix Surrendered By Owners, Closter Rescue Desperate For Foster Family Hound Mix Surrendered By Owners, Closter Rescue Desperate For Foster Family
Hound Mix Surrendered By Owners, Closter Rescue Desperate For Foster Family CLOSTER, N.J. — Time is running out for Shea, a 2-year-old hound mix currently with CLAWS in Closter.

"It's not about me," Nicoletti said. "But it has become a part of me." Nicoletti rallied a few police officers in 1988 to help him fill a little red pickup truck with toys…
