My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet AJ!
This almost 9 year old Maltese was recently surrendered through absolutely no fault of his own and is a bit confused but sweet, fine with other dogs, and a little over 10lbs. His owner didn’t believe in vaccines so hadn’t brought him to a vet since 2017. He has some pretty awful painful ear infections that have been going on untreated for a while and we are working on getting him feeling better soon. Otherwise he seems to be in pretty good health overall and only really middle aged for a little guy, and we hope he will have another good 9 years in his new home. Email njwoof@cs.com to meet AJ 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.
