My story

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

Update 8-17: Mango has fully healed physically from his tail amputation. He still will chase/try to attack his tail when he gets nervous or stressed at times. He's on medication which has helped a lot but will need a calmer adult home where he can feel safe. Email njwoof@cs.com if you are interested.

Little Mango needs your help!
We intercepted this 3 year old tiny chi unexpectedly yesterday as he was being surrendered to the local pound while we were there...he had been biting at his tail severely and needed emergency surgery to amputate the injured portion. He had surgery today and is resting comfortably, and will be on medication and need to wear a cone for a while to make sure he doesn't damage his tail and work on breaking his anxious habit. He's only 5lbs full grown and a very sweet little guy who will need a stress-free calmer adult home who will continue to work with him. Email njwoof@cs.com if you would like to foster or adopt this special boy once he's ready...
And please consider donating so we can continue to provide emergency care to needy dogs like Mango!

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.
