Action News anchor Rick Williams adopts Mustafa, a dog featured on 'Shelter Me'

Action News anchor Rick Williams has adopted Mustafa, a dog featured on 'Shelter Me' from the Burlington County Animal Shelter.

Rick Williams fell in love with Mustafa when he visited the station for our 'Shelter Me' segment. After an additional meet and greet, the Williams family decided to take Mustafa home.

The Action Cam was there for the special moment on Friday morning.

6abc's Shelter Me spotlighted the Burlington County Animal Shelter located in Westampton, New Jersey on February 16th.

The Burlington County Animal Shelter serves as a temporary home for stray dogs, cats and other small animals. Their vision is to provide their animals with appropriate care, love, and attention at all times. They save thousands of animals every year.

Burlington County Animal Shelter's Erika Haines introduced us to Mustafa, a pointer retriever mix.

Mustafa came into the Burlington County Animal Shelter as a stray in July of 2023 and is believed to be about 3 years old.

Mustafa is described as a gentle pup who enjoys leisurely walks outside and baking in the sun. He is neutered, has all of his vaccines and is microchipped.
