Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We aren’t sure how exactly we ended up with such a sweet little youngster but little Rascal definitely doesn’t belong here with all the old grumps! (And the grumpy old dogs too, not just us 😂).
This little 2 year old doxie/chi type mix was from a hoarding situation and supposed to be a bit shy and quirky we were told, but it took him about 2 minutes to start wagging his tail and jumping on our laps. Now he is a complete velcro dog and literally won’t leave us alone, no shyness here! He likes other dogs and seems less anxious in their presence but mostly wants a person to follow around and give kisses to. He’s neutered, updated on shots, and ready to find his forever home. Email njwoof@cs.com to meet Rascal in Northern NJ
Since COVID-19, we are no longer holding our Sunday adoption events until further notice, but we are scheduling meet and greet appointments with a specific dog or dogs at our meeting spots in Northern NJ. To streamline adoptions, all communication before, during, and after the adoption process is done through email only: we have limited volunteers able to return phone calls. Submit an application from our website www.secondchance.petfinder.com to speed up the adoption process and email any questions to us at njwoof@cs.com. Please check your email regularly for next steps. All our dogs reside in foster care in Northern NJ until adoption and we do not have a central shelter location. We are a small all-volunteer organization focused on rescuing local dogs from area shelters, as well as accepting some surrenders and puppy mill rescues.
