My personality

My story

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

Meet Choco!

This little 4 year old schnauzer/Shih Tzu mix (according to his owner) is a cute tiny lion-hearted little one who thinks he’s much bigger than his 9lbs. He was surrendered because of moving/landlord issues through no fault of his own. Choco sometimes barks and acts fierce at first but quickly bonds and then is a cuddly little guy who enjoys watching tv and playing with his family, a loyal and lovable little companion. He is non-shedding and needs regular grooming He’s been neutered and updated on shots and is ready for a forever home deserving of his devotion. Email njwoof@cs.com to meet our little Choco 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.

Additional adoption info

We request that adopters fill out a pre-adoption application either on our website. 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.
