My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Very disappointing news...Virginia is back and looking for her forever home once again. She was adopted about a month ago and was doing great socializing with many people, other dogs, and even a parrot, but needs someone who will be more patient with her housebreaking and getting her on a stable daily routine. Poor Virginia has had so many disappointments in her young life and never had a "real home"- she went from a backyard breeder's yard, to almost being killed in a local shelter because she was a "big black shy dog" that they thought no one would ever adopt, and then spending a year going back and forth between foster care and boarding at our vet so it's understandable that she's going to need to learn some household manners and patience. She's crate-trained and loves going for walks, hikes, playing with her doggie friends, and did well in her foster home following other dogs out to go to the bathroom. She still has a lot of puppy energy and is under 2 years old. Please email us at njwoof@cs.com if you would like to foster or adopt this sweet special pup.

We do not have a shelter- all our pets are in foster homes and can be seen by appointment only during the week, or at our weekly pet adoptions every Sunday at the Animal Clinic of Morris Plains from 12:30 to 3PM at 3009 Route 10 East next to 5 Star Car Wash (formerly Boulder Car Wash) in Morris Plains (Denville on GPS). To help us better match a pet to your household, we request you fill out an application on our homepage www.secondchance.petfinder.com and copy and paste it into an email, or print it and bring it to our adoption day when you come. Local inquiries only please- we do not do long distance adoptions.
