Story

Meet Atlas – Your Next Best Friend! Atlas is a sweet, playful Morkie pup with a wonderful temperament and so much love to give! He’s a perfect blend of calm and cuddly with bursts of fun puppy energy — the best of both worlds. What Makes Atlas Special: Dog-Friendly: Loves playing with his 13 lb foster sibling and would definitely benefit from having another dog in the home. Kid-Approved: Great with respectful kids (ages 7 & 9) and unfazed by noise, thunder, or fireworks. Outdoor Lover: Enjoys the fenced yard, fetch games, and did great on a short leash walk. Training in Progress: Doing well with crate training (sleeps there at night and stays in when home alone). Potty training is going well — he’s being trained to go outside rather than on pads and is making steady progress! Atlas is affectionate, well-adjusted, and learning quickly. He’s playful, gentle, and has settled beautifully into family life. Whoever adopts him will be gaining a loyal companion with a loving, balanced personality. Available for adoption now — don’t miss your chance to meet this amazing little guy!Atlas is up to date on age appropriate vaccines and a neuter deposit is required for adoption. He is available for adoption in NJ or the surrounding area. https://peytonsplaceanimalrescue.org/adoption-application ##2450906##

Story

Meet Wooju — A Tiny Soul with a Huge Heart 🐶 4 years old | Neutered Male | Maltese | 7.3 lbs From a heartbreaking past to a hopeful future — Wooju is ready to find the forever family he’s always deserved. This little 7.3 lb Maltese was born into hardship. In a small town in Korea, he spent his early years as a breeding dog at a pet shop, and once he was no longer “useful,” he was passed on to a dog grooming school, where he was used for grooming practice and endured repeated abuse. Thankfully, a compassionate student reported his condition, and Wooju was rescued by a local animal welfare group. After receiving care and recovering from his past, he made his way to the U.S. and is now being fostered in a loving home in New Jersey. Despite everything he’s been through, Wooju is incredibly sweet, bright, and affectionate. He loves all people and never hesitates to show his adorable side. He gets along well with other dogs, has no known issues with kids, and is fully pee pad trained while also doing well with outdoor potty breaks. He hasn’t met cats yet, but his gentle nature suggests he may adjust well with proper introduction. Wooju may be small in size, but his capacity for love is enormous. After years of being used and neglected, he’s finally ready to be loved — not for what he can provide, but for who he is. If you're ready to show him what forever feels like, Wooju is ready to give you all his heart. 💛

Meet Luke! Breed: Maltese/Yorkie mix Age: 6 years &#226&#154&#150&#239&#184&#143 Weight: 17 lbs Luke is a loyal little guy with a big heart and an even bigger personality!

Whether it’s alerting you to someone at the door or curling up beside you to keep watch, Luke is happiest when he's with his people.

Princess

Maltese

Female, 8 yrs

Oak Ridge, NJ

Size

Story

Princess is a very sweet social 8 year old Maltese looking for a lap! She’s a Velcro dog that wants to be with her people as much as possible and doesn’t understand personal space. She gets along with male dogs who accept her as their queen, uses wee wee pads as well as going outside, and loves meeting new people and making new friends. She is hypothyroid and just needs an inexpensive pill twice daily for life that she takes easily in a meatball of food, and otherwise is a young healthy active senior, under 10lbs, spayed, updated on shots and ready to go! Email njwoof@cs.com to meet Princess 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.
