Story

This little girl is part of our Olympic crew — five siblings rescued together from the streets of Guánica, Puerto Rico. At just 3 months old and about 10 pounds, she’s happy, healthy, and thriving. After being lovingly fostered in Puerto Rico, she and her four siblings began their own Olympic journey – flying to Miami and then traveling by car all the way to New Jersey, where they are now safe and ready for forever homes. It was a long trip for such little pups, but they handled it like gold medalists. Each pup is named after an Olympic hero. This sweet girl is Kendall, named after a member of the Women’s Gold Medal Olympic Hockey team, and she carries that same determined, champion spirit. Though small in size, she’s big in heart — playful, affectionate, and wonderful with kids. She loves to romp around and then snuggle up close. From surviving on the streets of Puerto Rico to making the long journey north, our Olympic crew has proven they are fighters. Now, Kendall is ready to win the greatest gold medal of all — a forever family of her own.

Story

How would you describe Sean Connery if he were a dog? Distinguished. Sophisticated. Effortlessly classy. Well—meet Ryder. Sean Connery in canine form. Ryder is a gentleman of a certain age. Officially estimated at 7, though he carries himself with the quiet wisdom of someone who may have seen a few more years than that. While the younger dogs busy themselves with playful chaos, Ryder prefers a more refined approach to life—observing the antics from a comfortable distance, as any dignified soul would. His tastes are simple, yet exacting. A soft pillow on your bed is his chosen throne. Mealtimes are conducted with impeccable manners. On walks, he stays faithfully at your side, heeling with quiet confidence. Even his snore is understated—soft, subtle, and almost too polite to notice. Ryder is perfectly house-trained and a calm, composed travel companion in the car. He coexists peacefully with other dogs, but it’s human companionship he truly treasures. He forms deep bonds, and when left alone, his soft, sorrowful cry is enough to tug at even the strongest heartstrings. Ryder isn’t just a dog—he’s a presence. A loyal, gentle soul who brings a quiet kind of love, the kind that feels steady, timeless, and rare. Oh, and he prefers his martini shaken and not stirred. If you make a good martini and would like the company of a furry Sean Connery-like companion, apply at Northstarpets.org and ask for Ryder TX. March 30, 2026, 2:19 pm

Story

Update 3/26 We have to completely rewrite Simba’s bio now that he’s come out of his shell! He’s no longer the world’s scardiest saddest little Eeyore man. He has stepped into his determined and fierce lion 🦁 era to match his name. His We have identified his 2 greatest motivators- food and squeaky toys! Not in that order, he will actually pick an exciting new squeaky ball over food. He is an independent player and can entertain himself throwing his toys around to himself and doesn’t really need you to keep him busy. Although you will have to deal with the non-stop squeaking in the background. And god help you if his ball rolls under something, he will do anything to get to it including trying to move the couch himself with his mightly little shoulder muscles. He’s still definitely a weirdo, a protective and sometimes aloof little guy, not a big cuddler and would rather be out walking or playing. He looks 75% doxie with the wrong head attached- we were told doxie/pug/chihuahua. He’s about 20lbs and 6-7 years old but acts much younger, a fun funny little dog for someone who likes dogs with big personalities that don’t always fit into society. He’s selective about his doggie friends and prefers females, but definitely doesn’t like to share his food and toys so might be happier as an only pet. No children, they are too unpredictable and he needs consistency and space. Email njwoof@cs.com to meet Simba 🦁 in Northern NJ. Meet Simba, the saddest little doxie wannabe 😭 This poor guy was completely overwhelmed and terrified, being turned into a crowded shelter and then coming to us, and initially just sat in the corner for days hanging his head like Eeyore 🫏 🥺. It was heartbreaking. He’s gotten over his initial shell shock and starting to show a little bit more of a personality, wagging his tail when he sees us and making friends with some of the calmer dogs. But despite his brave lion 🦁 name, he is still a super chicken 🐓 He has a lot of fear in him, cowers and shudders when touched like he is expecting the worst. We aren’t sure of much about his past life and we aren’t sure we want to know, but we are focused on moving forward and making him as happy as he can be. He was said to be a doxie/chi/pug mix and we can definitely see all 3- the underbite, wrinkly face, and wider stance of a pug, the trembling neurotic chihuahua nature (and he will bark and snark and let strangers know to back off if they approach too fast) , and of course the long short legged perfect doxie body 🌭. He’s about 20lbs but on a diet to slim down a little (he definitely loves food and thats the way to his heart) has been neutered and updated on shots, and we think about 7 years old give or take. We would love to find this sad little man a nice quiet adult home and someone who will give him time and space to bond on his terms. Email njwoof@cs.com to meet the world’s saddest short man 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.
