Porsche came to us by way of an animal control van and not a fancy car. She was terrified and bewildered at first but warmed up after a few days and definitely found her voice… she doesn’t bark, more like sings/howls/screams to let you know when she wants something. She got spayed and a hernia repair this past week which was a distressing traumatic event for both her and our vets, but is recovering well and coming out of her shell more each day. She’s almost 3 years old, some kind of non-shedding mix- we were told Maltipoo but seems more like Shih Tzu in there too- 13lbs full grown. She is ok with small calmer dogs, cries to let us know when she needs to go out to the bathroom or will use wee wee pads as well, and asks to be picked up once she bonds with you but is a bit head shy and scared at first with new people. She would like a quiet adult home and doesn’t seem like she’s exposed to much of the world outside her apartment before. Email njwoof@cs.com to meet her 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.
