My personality

My story

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

Rex the Chiweenie is back on the market 😔

Unfortunately he had some separation anxiety and didn’t do well living as an only dog… so definitely needs another doggie buddy in the household this time around and someone home more often than not. He’s just over a year old, an insecure nervous little baby, nervous at first with strangers, but bonds and warms up quickly and then is a silly happy playful puppy, a lot of fun. He loves playing with his doggie friends, is still working on housebreaking and will need some patience with that but learning from following his doggie friends. He’s only 10lbs and we were told a chiweenie, but we could see some min pin or Jack Russell in there too and he has a cute little half-tail like a terrier. Rex is neutered, updated on shots, and ready to find the right forever home.

Email njwoof@cs.com to meet him 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.
