My story

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

Doxie fans, we have another perfect little antique for you 😍

Leia is a sweet sleepy 16 year old mini looking for somewhere with an abundance of soft fuzzy beds to live out her life. Her owner died and a relative took her in but could no longer have her due to housing issues. She’s fine with other sloth-like 🦥 gentle dogs, has always lived with cats, is used to wee wee pads, and is at the stage in life where she mostly just naps 😴, eats, naps, repeat. Her bloodwork was surprisingly amazing for an ancient girl but she does have some heart disease that’s she’s on medication for longterm.

Email njwoof@cs.com to bring this little old lady home! She’s located 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.
