Senior Simba is really embracing his Lion King 🦁 namesake after his neuter and dental! Hey, if you have to wear the cone of shame, you might as well look cute doing it!
Our senior boy had to have most of his teeth removed as they were pretty rotted. His bloodwork was pretty good for an old man, and he has some early heart disease and is on one medication longterm to help support his cardiac function. He has some arthritis but gets around really well and still does his cute begging dance for attention especially if crated. He was living pretty much around the clock in a crate in his last home because his elderly owner wasn’t able to take care of him, and is so happy to be getting more attention and freedom. We were told he wasn’t always the friendliest, but a lot of it seemed to be centered around frustration of being kept crated so much. So far we have only seen his demon side when shaving his matted legs 🤷♀️, and he’s been getting along with other dogs and been a pleasant little guy. Email njwoof@cs.com to meet Simba 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.

We request that adopters fill out a pre-adoption application either in person at our adoption day or through our website www.secondchance.petfinder.com. This helps us make sure the animal's personality is a good match for your household. Adoption fees vary according to the dog's age, breed, adoptability, and how much we have had to spend in vet bill on them. Adopters sign a contract at the time of adoption, and the animal must come back to us if they do not work out in the home.
