Story

Meet Bambi! This shy Cairn Terrier was purchased as an adult from an Amish puppy mill in PA… it seems they have realized people are willing to buy adult dogs and not just puppies and of course they will do anything to profit off of dogs with no care for what happens to them. She was purchased expecting a sweet calm lapdog and family pet. But after life in a cage being used for breeding she has no clue how to be one and was probably more miserable in a home with no other dogs than she was in the mill where at least she had her canine companions to comfort her. Like most mill rescues, she has no clue how to walk on a leash or enjoy life in a real home, and is very skittish and distrustful of people though never aggressive. She’s curious and will wag her tail and give a quick hand lick maybe following the other dogs’ greeting, but otherwise tries to avoid and stay out of reach. She allows all handling and petting once “caught” but isn’t at the point of enjoying it yet. Maybe one day, on her own timetable, but probably not 3 days, 3 weeks, or even 3 months. When she’s with a “pack” of doggie friends she looks like a normal happy little terrier from a distance- tail up and wagging, exploring the yard, greeting every new dog- zero fear of other dogs. She even has a little bit of a typical cairn boss-bitch streak and can hold her own and put the bratty young ones in their place if they mess with her and needs to be fed separately. She has been following the other dogs outside into a fenced yard and going to the bathroom but will have accidents, and gets very anxious in a crate or being separated from other dogs for even a few minutes. Bambi is looking for a patient adult home with at least one other compatible dog companion to learn from and follow, and someone who won’t get their feelings hurt and that there is no instant connection with people. She’s about 6-8 years old and finally getting spayed this week to make sure her breeding days are behind her, and a dental so will be medically ready for the right home very soon. Email njwoof@cs.com to meet Bambi 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.

Story

Ella is the sweetest girl ever! She's a 1-year-old, 30-pound Cairn Terrier mix with a scruffy tan coat and a loving personality. Although she might be a bit shy at first, she soon relaxes and settles into a calm life with playful dogs. She prefers not to be around rambunctious ones which usually reflect a more active lifestyle than she likes. But she's no couch potato which you'll quickly see as she climbs up a wired fence! A delightful girl! (posted 12/16/25, ME) Adoption Fee: $395.00-- covers microchip, worming, all vaccines, monthly heart worm preventative, monthly tick/flea preventative, spaying/neutering, health certificate, and complete medical records. Transport Fee: $160.00-- We consider the transport to be of great importance and, as such, take particular care of the dogs during the trip. We make every effort to arrive with healthy and minimally stressed dogs. **It is rare that we know with certainty the ages or mixes that make up our dogs, but we do our best to be as accurate as possible based upon our experience. **March 15, 2026, 1:34 pm
