Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Gimli!
This handsome min pin was being given away dangerously “free to good home” online in desperate need of immediate medical care. He had a large painful tumor that was ulcerated and oozing, and making it hard for him to use his back leg. He isn’t even that old- maybe 7-8- and otherwise in great shape and full of life, with no sign of cancer spread. Because of the generosity of our community, we were able to get him a full medical work up and immediate surgery at Country Willow Veterinary Hospital to remove that mass which had been left to grow for quite a while. He’s healed up nicely and is a lovable cuddly guy with his foster mom, gets along with other dogs and has learned not to chase cats. He does have that protective Min Pin streak that they often have, and tends to be a one-person dog once he bonds and devotes his life to keeping you safe. While his mass was an aggressive cancer, it was removed just in time before it had a chance to spread or get even larger where it wasn’t removable. So he has a pretty good prognosis without any further treatment although will have to be monitored for regrowth or spread in the future.
Gimli has fully healed and is ready for a home- email njwoof@cs.com if you need this handsome loyal min pin in your life.
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 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.
