My name is Benny!

Introducing Benny!

This shy guy with big soulful eyes came to us when his owner passed away. He’s a 10 year old mixed breed, maybe doxie, chihuahua, min pin, jack Russell, rat terrier, or all of the above, 11lbs full grown. He’s nervous at first with new people and too much noise but a sweet little lap dog once he bonds, fine with other dogs and looking for a quiet home where his loyalty and devotion will be appreciated. He’s a healthy “young senior”, just had bloodwork and a dental, and plans to be with you another decade hopefully.

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.
