kurt

Kurt is making great progress and turning into a brave young man! He’s only been with us a week but is following everything his “big brother/cousin” Champ does for better or worse. He’s following us around, jumping for attention, will do anything for cheese or a squeaky toy and is even letting us pet and pick him up tentatively! Not bad considering we had to wrap him in a towel to touch him last week! We see a lot of potential in this little guy, still just a baby around a year old or less, 10lbs full grown. He loves, follows and plays with other dogs and definitely needs a pack or at least one other friendly playful dog to take him under their wing. He looks like some kind of Italian Greyhound/Chi/Jack Russell type mix, one of the 50+ from the recent horrible Sussex County dumping/hoarding case, but he’s showing us just how resilient these little survivors can be.

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.
