Our profile picture will soon be changing folks. Why, you might ask? Well, why have a pet as our profile pic when he has already found a good home! That’s right- Shane got adopted!! We are SOOO thrilled for our little buddy! Shane came to us way back in February 2014 from our Newark facility when he was picked up as a stray. Shane was practically a puppy back then and we thought he would get adopted quickly but for some reason, he was overlooked time and time again. This happy and bubbly boy seemed to be growing up with us! We were happy for him when he got adopted out a couple of months ago to what we thought was a great home, but devastated when he was returned for being too “needy”, whining, and wanting attention. Finally the right family came along, and doesn’t mind giving Shane all the attention that he asks for. He will finally have the lifetime of happiness that he deserves. Congratulations Shane and family! May you have a long, happy, healthy life together. We’ll miss you Shane!

Shore News Network Staff Report

Shore News Network Staff Report is the official newsroom byline used by Shore News Network when a story is produced through the collaborative work of multiple members of the editorial team rather than a single reporter.

This newsroom account is reserved for articles that involve contributions from multiple journalists, editors, photographers, researchers, or news desk staff. It is also used for developing stories that are updated as new verified information becomes available, as well as for community announcements, weather coverage, public safety alerts, election results, and other newsroom-produced content.

Every article published under the Shore News Network Staff Report byline is reviewed and edited in accordance with the organization's editorial standards for accuracy, fairness, attribution, and transparency. Information is verified through official government agencies, court records, law enforcement, public documents, direct reporting, interviews, and other reliable primary and secondary sources before publication whenever possible.

The Staff Report account does not use artificial intelligence to independently generate news or publish unverified information. AI-assisted tools may occasionally be used for editorial support tasks such as transcription, formatting, grammar review, or workflow efficiency, but all published content is subject to human editorial oversight and approval by Shore News Network's newsroom staff.

As an independently owned digital news organization, Shore News Network is committed to original reporting, public safety journalism, government accountability, local community coverage, and breaking news throughout New Jersey and surrounding regions. Stories published under the Staff Report byline reflect the collective experience and editorial judgment of the Shore News Network newsroom.

Readers who have corrections, additional information, or news tips related to a Staff Report article are encouraged to contact the newsroom at news@shorenewsnetwork.com. Shore News Network welcomes factual corrections and updates as part of its commitment to accurate, transparent journalism.
