Story
Might our little warrior girl, Beya! Beya was attacked by another dog and sustained a bad injury to her eye. She was rushed to the vet to attend to her injury and the moment she arrived, she went into labor and had 6 little puppies. As if that wasn't enough, the vet determined her eye was so badly damaged it needed to be removed. Beya has been a good Mom to her babies even as she was recovering from her eye surgery. Her babies have been weaned and now Beya is ready to find her forever family with whom she will be safe and loved. Beya is about 5 years old and 18 pounds. Please help our sweet Beya find the loving home she deserves. ***You must provide a vet reference for a current or past pet you have/had.*** We do NOT ship our animals.

Story
Meet Mocha. Mocha's owner surrendered him when she moved and could not take him with her. He originally came to us with his "brother" and have been in foster care, living with several other small dogs. Mocha has thrived in his foster home and has made friends with the other dogs. He loves to run around in the yard and explore with the others. He is happy, outgoing and social as well. Mocha would do best in a home with at least one other small dog in the home to keep him company. He is about 5-6 years old and 13 pounds. Please help Mocha find the loving home he deserves.

Story
Meet Fudge. Fudge's owner moved and could not take him with her. He originally came to us with his "brother" and have been in foster care, living with several other small dogs. While we were told the brothers are bonded, his foster believes that was not necessarily true as they do not always stay together or look for each other and each have made friends with the other dogs in the foster home. They have become more outgoing and social as well. So the decision was made for Fudge to find his own forever home as long as there is at least 1 other small dog in the home to keep him company. He is a very friendly boy who is about 5-6 years old and 16 pounds. Please help Fudge find the loving home he deserves. We do NOT ship our animals. All adoptive families must travel to us to meet their adoptive dog/cat. Applicants must live within a 2 hour radius from Sparta/Andover (07871/07821).

Story
June is a love bug. She will be happiest cuddled up next to you. She doesn't bark, but she can be anxious. June is 10 years old. She love walks, but will want to be carried if she has to walk anything that could be a "hike". If they're any dogs in your home she would be better around smaller dogs. She gets anxious around big dogs. In March I had given birth to our daughter, and while we have tried for the past eight months to acclimate June to the baby, she has been having a very hard time adjusting. She is not aggressive to our baby, she is just obviously depressed, and will ignore us if we are doing anything involving the baby. We believe June will be happiest in a home that does not have any younger children. We want what is best for June, and that means going to a home that can give her the attention she needs. We will give you all of her toys, blankets, leash, collar, harness, and anything else that is hers to make this transition easier for her.

Story
Whether you are a doxie lover, a Chihuahua lover, or both, you will fall in love with Umbrella ☂️ 😍 Chiweenie is our best guess, and she’s the best of both breeds. Smart, quiet, gentle, loyal, dog-friendly- big soulful brown eyes and bigger ears. We think she’s about 7-8 years old, though she may be a little younger even and just prematurely grey. She’s a little timid at first but bonds quickly and once she does, the sun rises and sets with you. Be prepared to be greeted with adoring gazes into your eyes and a wagging tail every time you walk into the room. Umbrella is looking for a lower key home where she can settle in and feel safe, and is just looking for someone to be her very best friend. Email njwoof@cs.com to meet Umbrella 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.
