My story

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

Meet HC Bigelow TX whose owners found themselves without a home and unable to care for him and their other dogs. Bigelow is a Shih Tzu mix, approximately 6 years old, and weighing just 13 pounds. Upon arrival in NJ, he was adopted but has now been returned to NorthStar because his adopter can no longer care for him. This adorable boy is "back on the market" and looking for a new place to hang his leash!

Bigelow's foster mom says he is just the sweetest guy! He is house trained and crate trained and wants to be close by, but not underfoot. He isn’t comfortable being on the couch - much prefers a bed on the floor by your feet. Bigelow does love going on car rides & will happily accompany you on your errands.

Bigelow walks well on a leash although he doesn't like to walk very far - he needs some encouragement periodically to keep walking. He gets a few houses away from home and is ready to turn around. Bigelow is somewhat vocal so he would not be a good choice for an apartment - single home living would be best for him (and your neighbors!)

If you are interested in Bigelow please consider submitting an adoption application and be sure to mention his name - HC Bigelow TX!! His adoption fee is $425.

More about this rescue

In many areas of the country, especially in the South, the situation for animals is desperate: Chained outside and starving, homeless and running loose, or just simply no longer wanted and abandoned in an overburdened and underfunded facility that can’t possibly take another. For these animals, there is not much hope…except to look in the night sky for the North Star, their only way out. We are a group of passionate volunteers committed to saving these innocent dogs and finding them a new forever home. NorthStar Pet Rescue was founded in 2017, and although we might be a relatively new name among New Jersey animal rescues, you may recognize some of us from the work we’ve done volunteering with other rescues to help animals over the past decade. We are 100% dedicated to operating in an safe, transparent, and ethical manner and to ensuring the best veterinary practices are followed with regards to the care and transport of our animals. NorthStar Pet Rescue is IRS 501(c)(3) charitable organization (EIN: 81-5348036).
