Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
I found a new home! Plenty of my friends are looking for one too. Check out other pets at this shelter, or start a new search.

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Irina!
This awkward little gremlin can’t quite figure out how to keep her tongue and all her teeth contained in her mouth at the same time, but we think it makes her look extra cute! We think she’s a chiweenie with maybe a touch of puggle or min pin thrown in there but she’s not telling who her mom and dad were 🤷♀️
She was very nervous in the local pound surrounded by all the big barking dogs but has warmed up quickly and does a cute little greeting dance once she decides you are her friend. She seems comfortable around other small chill dogs, about 4 years old and 18lbs with perfect short twisty little doxie legs.
Email njwoof@cs.com to meet Irina 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.
