My story

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

It’s hard to get a good adoptable looking photo of little Starla, but we promise she’s the cutest sweetest wiggly little senior when you meet her in person! This 13 year old shorkie (Shih Tzu/yorkie) is still young at heart and has her spunky playful moments but is mostly just a cuddler. Most of her teeth were rotted and had to be removed during her dental, so her little tongue usually hangs out in various positions 😛. She’s had the cherry eyes her whole life without an issue so they are just a cosmetic problem at this point that will probably make people overlook her 😞. She has a cataract in one eye but sees fine out of the other still. Otherwise, she is in great shape for her age and hoping to still have several years with her new family. She is fine with other small dogs, sometimes a little bossy and spunky and can keep up with the younger ones even!

Email njwoof@cs.com to meet Starla 🌟 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.
