My story

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

Meet Jax, our wannabe doxie!

He is a shy guy with a perpetually worried expression, although he has a lot to be worried about lately. His owner has been in and out of the hospital and could no longer care for him so sadly had to surrender him, and his whole world has been turned upside down. He was already a skittish anxious guy, but sweet and bonds and warms up quickly, likes other dogs and has gone to doggie daycare in the past. He looks like mostly doxie with the face of a puggle, or a toy dwarf rottie… about 20lbs full grown and 9 years old. He’s looking for a calmer adult home like he’s been used to with another doggie friend in the household to help him feel less anxious.

Please email njwoof@cs.com to meet Jax 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.
