My story

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

Hey guys! We have a very sweet medical case German Shepherd named Ruger. He is about 2 years old and weighs 83 pounds. Ruger is extremely tolerant, easy to work with and has been friendly with all the other animals he’s met (check out these cat pictures!).

Our doctor examined him and found the following - He’s got nerve damage in his right hind leg and the left front has an elbow fracture and is very swollen (we felt a click). The left front really needs immediate repair. His x-rays show a pelvic fracture on the left side and a luxated left front with a chip fracture. The elbow was the real issue and Ruger has now had surgery to put it back in place and secure it. He is recuperating in a wonderful foster home in Texas before he can make the trip to NJ to find a home.

We will be updating Ruger's bio as we learn more about his medical condition and this sweet boy's personality.

If you'd like to open up your home to Ruger, please fill out an adoption application at www.northstarpets.org and be sure to ask for RUGER GSD TX.

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).
