Story
Meet Quartz.. Pics are before and after grooming What a handsome mostly white Hypoallergenic guy.. This sweet boy was rejected from a NY pet store. The new law is requiring all NY pet stores to stop selling pups in these store as of Dec 15th. Stores are canceling orders and rejecting pups like crazy. We were not planning on taking on so many pups, but we could not leave him on the truck, to most likely go back to a mill where his fate would be unknown. Quartz is a 13 week old male Teddy Bear. A Teddy Bear is a mix of Shihtzu and Bichon. Considered fully hypoallergenic. This breed is very popular. We estimate his full growth weight to be under 15 pounds. He is quite petite. Quartz is very sweet, social and playful. He is adjusting well in his foster home and having a blast with the other pups. Using a wee wee pad for potty training. Being fostered in Rockland County NY Send an email to Onepawatatimerescue@gmail.com and request an application *** Thats the only way to get an application Adoption fee is $950 We adopt in the Tri State Area ONLY NY, NJ, PA, CT, DE, MA, RI, NH, VT

Story
Meet Snow..... What a Gorgeous boy.... Snow came to us from a puppy mill in Wisconsin. He was able to come into the rescue because the pet stores did not book him. They felt his short legs were not cute enough for stores. Snow is a 13 week old male Shihtzu / Yorkie mix. He is considered fully hypoallergenic. His current weight is around 6 pounds. We estimate his full growth weight to be around 15 pounds. We love his short legs. His coloring is very unique, and his hair is similar to a Silky Terrier. Snow is very social and playful. He is adjusting well in his foster home and having so much fun with the other pups and toys. Using a wee wee pad for potty training. Being fostered in Stony Point NY Send an email to Onepawatatimerescue@gmail.com and request an application ** Thats the only way to get an application Adoption fee is $950 We adopt in the Tri State Area ONLY NY, NJ, PA, CT, DE, VT, MA, RI, NH

Story
Meet Laura..... Sweet Retired Breeding Mom.. Laura was recently retired from a life of breeding for a puppy mill. This poor girl has probably had multiple litters and made lots of money for the mill. Laura is a 4 year old female Shihtzu mix. Considered fully hypoallergenic. Laura is very scared, and trying to adjust to home living. Typical behavior from a breeding mom from these mills. Laura weighs 13 pounds and seems to be in great health. Bloodwork was done at the vets office and everything looks good. We would want to place Laura in a home where the family understands her needs and will have patience with her. She will come out of her shell and will be a fantastic companion for someone. We prefer a home without young kids. Laura is fine with other dogs and cats. She uses a wee wee pad and the outdoors for potty training. Being fostered in Butler NJ *** Spay and Dental appointment is on Jan 16th. We can do a foster to adopt - we woukd need her back for this appointment. Or Laura can be adopted with zero adoption fee and her spay and dental would be covered by the adopters. Lots of options to chat about Send an email to Onepawatatimerescue@gmail.com and request an application ** Thats the only way to get an application Adoption fee $500 Foster to adopt available Or zero fee and medical is paid for by new adopters We adopt in the Tri State Area ONLY NY, NJ, CT, PA, RI, VT, MA, NH, DE

Story
Meet Lizard who came to NorthStar along with 6 siblings when his former owners became homeless. All the others have since been adopted but poor Lizard still waits for his forever home. Lizard is a Shih Tzu mix, approximately 1 year old, and weighing just 11 pounds. Lizard does have some “quirks” we think you should know about. He has a very mild case of cherry eye. The vet has checked him out and it does not affect his vision or his tear ducts and is not bothersome at all to him. In fact, his eyesight is perfect! We believe that Lizard’s former owners had their dogs using wee wee pads and they probably had accidents with that many dogs in the house. When he came to NJ, Lizard was very skeptical about grass! But through time and a big doggie sister, he learned to accept and even like it and finally is housebroken for the most part. He sometimes has an accident in the house so it’s best to keep a weewee pad out. Recently he started going potty in his bed and in his crate when it contained blankets. If we remove the bedding from the crate & leave out a wee wee pad, he does better. Occasionally we put him in diapers - The goal is to make him dislike wearing them so much that he only goes outside. So far so good as no accidents in 2 weeks! Lizard would do best in a home without children or possibly children over 10 years old as he has been fearful of sudden movements and has shown he is willing to go after a child but not an adult. He currently has a human sibling who he has grown to love and not want to attack at any movement made. Ideally, Lizard would be best in a home without kids.   Though out in public Lizard may seem fearful of other dogs, he is just fine living with them – check out the photos of Lizard with other dogs and with cats, too. He can get jealous but easily overcomes that in less than 48 hours! We feel that Lizard would also be happy in a home where he was an “only dog”. When Lizard was in a foster home in Texas, he was afraid of larger cats. However, he is good with and enjoys the company of smaller cats as you can see in his photos. He will actually groom them and sleep with them. As Lizard is only a year old, there is some puppy energy but he does tire quickly so it’s short lived. He is a Netflix and chill type of dude! And above all he is very cuddly and will fall asleep in your arms like a baby if given the opportunity! Lizard has been neutered, microchipped and brought up to date on vaccines. The adoption fee for this boy is $425. If you are interested in meeting Lizard please consider submitting an adoption application and be sure to mention his name - HC Lizard TX!!!!December 10, 2024, 2:12 pm

Story
&#239&#187&#191Tiny pup January was born on 11/18/2024 - her mom is a Shih Tzu and her dad is a Boston (we have included photos of both of them). Both parents weigh under 20 pounds so we expect December to be a small dog when fully grown. She has rich brown coloring with with markings and some black markings.  She does look like she will have medium-long hair type. On 12/3/2024 she weighed in at one lb. January will not be available for adoption until she is 8-10 weeks old. Due to her tiny size, she will not be adopted into a home with small children. We will be looking for a home with people who will give January the attention and training that a puppy needs to grow into a well-socialized adult. If you are interested in January Pup, please fill out an application at www.northstarpets.org and be sure to ask for JANUARY PUP TX! Her adoption fee is $425 plus a $100 spay/neuter deposit which will be refunded once she is fixed.December 21, 2024, 5:35 pm
