Story

14 years of love… and Trixie isn’t done sharing it. Sweet Trixie, a 13-14 year-old Miniature Schnauzer, is looking for a loving foster home after her owner suffered a fall and can no longer care for her. This precious little lady is as easy as they come—she loves naps, short strolls, soft beds, and being close to her people. She’s gentle, housebroken (with the occasional senior accident), and just wants a peaceful place to call home. Let’s make sure her golden years are filled with comfort, love, and kindness. Please share so Trixie can find the cozy retirement she deserves! https://peytonsplaceanimalrescue.org/become-a-foster/ ##1765407##

Story

Hi! My name is Bennie, and I’m a mini schnauzer-chihuahua mix. My sister, Shelby, and I were the last two pups in our litter, and for a while, it seemed like no one wanted us. Our mom was found running down a country road until a kind lady picked her up and knocked on doors until she found our home. Our human mom felt overwhelmed and was relieved to let this kind lady take us in. We were so grateful! She promised to take care of our mom and gave us a chance at a better life. At first, we were sad, but as soon as we saw our foster home, our spirits lifted. We knew things were looking up when we learned Critter Cavalry would care for us and help us find loving forever homes. I’m the mischievous one—the clown of the bunch. I’ve made it my mission to make you smile, even when I’m being a little naughty (don’t worry, it’s not too often). With me around, laughter is guaranteed! I love to play and can be a bit vocal when I want your attention, but I also adore snuggling and can be incredibly sweet. I think I’m a wonderful little guy, and I’ll do my best to make sure you agree. My sister Shelby is the love bug. She’d much rather be snuggling with you than playing with me! We do play together, but when she gets tired, she’s quick to find someone to cuddle. We don’t have to be adopted together, but if you’re looking for the perfect yin and yang, the two of us are just what you need. To learn more about Bennie and/or Shelby as well as the adoption process please email Vivienne at vivienneajames@gamil.com or text 615-943-7311. The pups are currently in Tennessee and can be transported north upon adoption. It will be a few weeks before their vetting is completed. July 23, 2026, 10:14 pm

Story

🧡🐾 HERO DOG BUTTERSCOTCH — FROM ABANDONED TO SAVING OTHER LIVES 🐾🧡 Sweet Butterscotch is just a baby, but she’s already experienced something no puppy ever should. She and another puppy were abandoned and left to die on the streets of South Carolina, unwanted and alone. 💔 Butterscotch survived. And now this precious, scruffy little girl with the adorable tiny tongue has the chance to become a Hero Dog. 🦸‍♀️🐾 Butterscotch’s $2,000 adoption fee doesn’t just change her life—it helps us save other innocent, unwanted animals who are still waiting for someone to fight for them. Every dollar goes back into helping our rescue continue saying YES to the dogs and cats others have forgotten, including those needing medical care, safety, and a second chance. By adopting Butterscotch, you’re not just bringing home one incredibly special little girl. You’re helping create a lifeline for so many others. ❤️ She was once abandoned like she didn’t matter. Now she’s ready for someone to show her that she is priceless, cherished, and finally home forever. One adoption. One little life forever changed. And so many more given a chance because of her. 🧡🐾 Who will be Butterscotch’s hero so she can continue being a hero for others? 🥹🏡❤️ PLEASE TEXT KAREN 4136298152

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention,

Story

Meet sweet senior schnauzer Toby! He was found as a stray, reclaimed, then surrendered because his owners were moving. Our handsome 10 year old chunky boy had a full medical work up and has been started on some medications to keep him around as long as possible. He has some heart disease, early kidney disease, and liver inflammation and is on 2 heart medications, kidney diet, and a liver supplement. He’s lost 3 lbs on his diet already and still has a few more to go to get down to a healthy weight, has good energy and is a happy sweet boy. He's a bigger mini and was 30lbs on intake but should be more like 22 probably. He’s good with other dogs and cats, a gentle cuddly boy who loves a good walk or trotting around the yard and then is happy to be a couch potato with you. We love his natural schnauzer tail and big ears, undocked and uncropped as schnauzer-mother nature intended! Email njwoof@cs.com to meet Toby 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.

Freddie

Schnauzer (Miniature)/Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier

Male, 2 yrs

Oak Ridge, NJ

Size

Story

Meet Freddie! This adorable tiny schnauzer wannabe was surrendered with another dog due to housing issues. He’s about 2-3 years old and 10lbs full grown, said to be some kind of rat terrier mix but definitely has the schnauzerly eyes of love. He’s a very timid little guy, panics and doesn’t know what to do on a leash or outside and we suspect the dogs were just being kept crated and hidden in the apartment and never socialized or taken outside. He greets other dogs happily but prefers his own eating space, and would like a doggie sister to live with to help boost his confidence. Housebreaking will likely take some patience- he’s not a “move right in like he’s always lived there” type of dog and expect he will need some time and work to get comfortable, but we can see there’s a sweet dog behind the cowering and fear.
