My story

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

Ronan has such a calm and sweet demeanor. We believe he is about 8 years old and he weighs 76 pounds. He is easy to handle, allowing pets all over, and has been friendly with everyone he has met at the shelter in Texas where he ended up after being found as a stray.

Walking is hard for Ronan, but he will stand and get around on his own though it is without a whole lot of help from his back legs. He is still continent and will try to move away to use the restroom when he is out of the kennel. The shelter vet examined Ronan and thinks he has degenerative myelopathy or a possible spinal cord lesion. Now that Ronan has been rescued by NorthStar, our vets will follow up to see how best to help this dog. He might do best in a home with a minimal number (or no) steps for this boy to navigate.

Ronan is in a foster home with big & little dogs as well as cats and he does fine with everyone. He is such a gentle boy that we feel that he would also be fine with children.

If you're interested in adopting this special senior boy, please submit an adoption application for RONAN TX - be sure to mention his name!

More about this rescue

In many areas of the country, especially in the South, the situation for animals is desperate: Chained outside and starving, homeless and running loose, or just simply no longer wanted and abandoned in an overburdened and underfunded facility that can’t possibly take another. For these animals, there is not much hope…except to look in the night sky for the North Star, their only way out. We are a group of passionate volunteers committed to saving these innocent dogs and finding them a new forever home. NorthStar Pet Rescue was founded in 2017, and although we might be a relatively new name among New Jersey animal rescues, you may recognize some of us from the work we’ve done volunteering with other rescues to help animals over the past decade. We are 100% dedicated to operating in an safe, transparent, and ethical manner and to ensuring the best veterinary practices are followed with regards to the care and transport of our animals. NorthStar Pet Rescue is IRS 501(c)(3) charitable organization (EIN: 81-5348036).
