My story

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

Truffles joins the Northstar family at age 14. She is in good shape for her age, except her eyesight isn’t great, she has no teeth, and she has a mild heart murmur. (No meds needed at this point.) 

A shih tzu/poodle mix, Truffles is house and crate trained. And she weighs 10 pounds. As we learn more about this sweet girl, we will update here! 

If you think you would like to give Truffles a safe and loving retirement hope, you may fill out an adoption application at www.northstarpets.org and mention her 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).
