Story
Our antisocial little schnauzie Fritz is back on the market and looking for an understanding home. He was a puppy mill survivor from a particularly awful mill where dogs were likely handled roughly and scruffed on the rare occasions they were touched at all. So all the dogs saved have had some extra behavior quirks and not particularly comfortable being petted and held. He only has 9 teeth but still has his fangs so can still defend himself when he feels threatened. He’s not a touchy feely guy- a quick pat on the head is more than enough although once he bonds he will follow you around and want to be near you, just isn’t sure quite how to handle more attention that that. He’s not a fan of being picked up, dressed up, or his collar grabbed and needs some oral sleepytime meds before vet and grooming appointments to avoid stressing everyone out. He loves other dogs especially the ladies, though sometimes has a weird way of showing it and will bark at and “herd” them like a true bossy little terrier. He loves food and is a hungry guy who will do just about anything for a treat so that’s definitely the way to his heart. His ideal home would be with other little dogs and someone who will let him be and not force love and affection on him, and accept him on his terms. He’s about 6-7 years old, had a recent dental cleaning again, is neutered and updated on shots, and hoping to find an understanding schnauzer person to love him unconditionally, even if it’s mostly at a distance. Email njwoof@cs.com to meet Fritz 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
Welcome Belle! (View her individual photos to see how cute she really is! Even so, the photos don’t do her justice!) Five month old, 18 pound Belle is so excited to get affection she doesn’t know who to go to first. An equal opportunity kisser and snuggler, she is absolutely precious. Belle is well on their way to being housetrained, waits patiently for meals and plays gently with little ones. She has a beautiful demeanor and will adjust easily to the energy to a resident dog. She’s not much of a barker and sleeps peacefully in her crate, ready to start every new day with her puppy exuberance. A fenced yard is best for her so she can explore her surroundings safely. Belle is up-to-date with vaccinations, spayed and microchipped. Fostered in Barnegat, NJ. Come meet this pumpkin! Applications at www.pounddogfounddog.org.

Story
** Current Location: in a foster home in South Korea ** • Personality: She's sociable and energetic. She adapts to new places right away and loves to reach out to new people and friends she meets. She knows how to say hello to familiar people and friends. She loves to play with other dogs and loves to play with people. She picks up on new training quickly, so we think she would make a great dog for a family with a good understanding and training knowledge of dogs. She's a bit of a sneaky prankster right now, so she can get into trouble, but she's affectionate, gentle, and full of energy. • Affinity with -Cats:She is currently living with cats in a temporary foster home. She is not aggressive with cats, but she is very interested in them, so if you have a cat that likes dogs, she would be fine. -Dogs: She is currently living with the dogs in her foster home without any issues. They play well with each other, are socialized, and warm up quickly to new dogs they meet. -Adults/Kids: She is very fond of people and loves to be petted. She warms up quickly to people she meets for the first time. • Shedding: Moderate. There is shedding in certain periods. Her fur is best brushed daily with a silicone brush. • Walking Manner: She loves to go for walks, both familiar and new, and prefers to take fast, wide, territorial walks (rather than slow, sniffing the trails). He also loves to run in the park, but will sometimes try to run outside if there is no fence. she is fast and has a lot of energy, so she loves to run around in large parks and meet people and dogs. she also loves to go for walks in the mountains, but she has a hunting instinct and is interested in small snakes, rodents, and birds. • Housetrained: She goes potty on pee pads and highly prefers to go outside. She can chew on wood and plastic furniture and will grab small items that fall on the floor and play with them. She's very playful and will run around with you if you have a like-minded friend in the house. • Separation Anxiety: She's always been around other dogs, so we can't confirm, but we think she'll be fine on her own. • Bark or Howl: She barks briefly when she hears strangers outside. There is no howl • Carsickness: She had drooling at first, but now she rides well.

Story
Meet Lucas! Lucas is 5 years old and 32 pounds. We aren't exactly sure what Lucas is mixed with but we think some type of Schnauzer, Terrier, Goldendoodle, whatever he is, he is sure handsome! Lucas loves to be with his person and does great with kids too. Lucas does okay with most other dogs but would probably prefer to be in a only dog home. He can be a bit vocal when left alone at first so he probably should not live in an apartment. Lucas does well in crate after a short vocal dissaproval. He has been through lots of training and knowsa leash well and all of the basic commands. Lucas had recent blood work at the vet. Interested in becoming this pup’s forever home? For immediate consideration, please fill out our online adoption application: http://www.friendswithfourpaws.org/adoption-form.html This is the first step in our process, and we DO NOT go any further without an application. If there are multiple dogs that you are interested in, please fill out an application for each dog. This does not include bonded pairs, one application will be fine. We have different adoption coordinators working with different dogs, and your application may be missed if you only apply once. Find more adoptable pets, news and information on Instagram @friendswithfourpaws or our Facebook page Friends with Four Paws . We put a lot of time and energy into processing our adoptions to find our babies the best fit home for them and you. Please do not submit an application if you are not serious about adopting. We are so excited to work with you to find you a new forever friend, and the perfect forever home for our dogs. We appreciate you working with us. Our adoption fee is $650. This includes their spay/neuter surgery, full (age appropriate) vaccinations, microchip insertion and registration, deworming, heartworm testing and prevention, flea and tick prevention and travel expenses. All of our dogs are rescued from local shelters and the general public. Each dog is then placed in a foster home where he/she is kept for quarantine, to ensure if the dog gets sick it can receive proper treatment. We have foster homes in the NJ/NY area waiting to receive their fosters. Once an animal has received an application or there's an adopter interested, we make arrangements for transport. If a dog is already in foster care in NYC/NJ, an adopter will be put in touch with the foster home AFTER an application is being processed. Thank you in advance for your patience with our process and for making adoption YOUR option!

Story
Meet Ephaba! This whimsical Schnauzer mix has a flair for the dramatic and a heart full of mischief, the mischief of stealing hearts that is. This spunky, silly girl casts a spell of joy on everyone she meets, especially her canine companions. Preferring the serene life of a quiet town over the Emerald City's dazzle, Ephaba seeks a family who appreciates the quieter, magical moments of life. Aimed at enchanting a crowd that's a bit more mature (over the age of 12, please), she's ready to lead her new pack on off-key adventures and cozy cuddles. Ephaba's tale isn't about defying gravity but about filling your life with laughter, loyalty, and a touch of wicked fun. She may not arrive by broomstick, but she's guaranteed to sweep you off your feet with her boundless love and spirited antics. Elphaba is 3 years old. She is vetted, spayed, and chipped. Our adoption areas include: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maine, Vermont, Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.
