Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Joy is a sweet happy little poodle who is timid but warming up, and races around happily with her doggie friends enjoying her newfound freedom from puppy mill life. At only 2 years old, she spent her life in a cage chewing on the metal bars and had to have a bunch of her bottom teeth pulled during her dental cleaning because they were worn down with pulp exposure:(. She got spayed too so will definitely never be used for breeding again and is ready to start looking for her forever home. Joy loves other dogs and turns into a happy puppy meeting them, and needs a home with another playful dog that will enjoy her company and not just tolerate her. She sticks close to her doggie friends and always has to be touching them. She’s 10lbs, a bigger toy or smaller mini poodle? She will need patience on housebreaking and adjusting to a real home as she learns to leave kennel life behind at long last.

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.
