Named for the rapper who was on the radio when the shelter volunteer picked him up, Method Man is as calm as they come.

The 2-year-old pup was found as a stray in Paterson and now resides at Brick City Rescue, Inc. in Newark. Volunteers describe him as happy, calm and mellow. He loves belly rubs and is very affectionate.

According to the shelter, Method Man is great with other dogs, cats and kids. Workers say his ideal family would be one that's nurturing and will provide him with love and structure.
