Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Stella!
Homeless at 15 years old after her elderly owners couldn’t care for her any longer, she’s confused and terrified by her whole world being turned upside down. Already a shy skittish dog who enjoyed a quiet life devoted to her people, the shelter and then a multidog foster have all been a complete culture shock for this gentle old soul. She’s not aggressive, just avoidant and takes some time to warm up but we can tell there’s a sweet natured girl in there who just can’t comprehend all the chaos she’s been exposed to lately. She’s never lived with other animals and tries to avoid them but may be ok with another very calm older dog or 2 that just wants to nap on opposite ends of the room with her. She’s overall in good health, a 20lbs fluffy spitz type mix with some blue spots on her tongue that suggest some chow in her and we would guess some Pomeranian, Eskimo, schipperke, or other northern breeds as well to shrink her to a miniature version. She’s very soft and therapeutic to pet and the perfect size, seems to be housebroken and spends most of her time picking soft beds to take her naps on.
We would love to get Stella into a nice quiet home ASAP- she’s not getting any younger ⏳ Email njwoof@cs.com to meet Stella 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.
