Sasha's Story

Introducing Sasha the bichon!<br/><br/>She’s a little weird and complicated, but sweet once she bonds, though she seems to pick and choose her friends carefully. She’s 8 years old and was a matted mess left homeless when her owners were deported. She’s had zero issues with us, asks to be picked up and likes hanging out with little doggie friends and follows the pack. Fine for the vet, fine for grooming, we didn’t anticipate any issues, just a sweet easy lovable little girl. But in different environments can be scared, snappy about being leashed and prefers a fenced yard to go out into, show some separation anxiety, growl and bark at strangers coming in, and can have a bossy streak with some dogs. She might not like men, but doesn’t like all women either. It’s kind of all or nothing, she’s either an easy perfect angel if she loves you, or a freaked out protective panicked menace if she isn’t happy in a situation. <br/><br/>Sasha is about 12lbs, had some benign lumps removed and is in good shape and a “young” healthy senior. Definitely an adult home and she will have to meet you and your other dogs and decide if she likes you or not. She is the type that has to pick out her own home and isn’t going to listen to us assuring her how good an application looks on paper. She just needs us to be her secretary and schedule blind dates for her and she will decide if there is chemistry or not. We are going to be left apologizing for her if she decides to give you the cold shoulder (or the white teeth)<br/><br/>So if you want to be judged by a bichon, email njwoof@cs.com to meet Sasha in Northern NJ

Second Chance Pet Adoption League's Adoption Policy
*Due to COVID-19 our adoption events are cancelled until further notice* Please email njwoof@cs.com and submit an application to set up an appointment to meet one of our adoptable dogs! Thank you for looking to open your home to a needy dog during this difficult time * Since most of our dogs live in foster homes instead of kennels, we get to know their personalities pretty well and have an idea of the type of home that would be ideal for them. We do our best to match you with a pet who will work out in your household, which is why we ask you to fill out the application below. It gives us information about your lifestyle and what you are looking for in a dog so we can find a match. Though we hope every adoption will be a success, we realize that sometimes once the pet gets into a home problems could arise and you may realize this is not the right dog for you. We always take our animals back at any time in their lifetime if they do not work out. We do not want them passed around or ending up in other shelters. If you are unable to keep your adopted pet, we require that they be returned to us so they can return to the foster home to which they have become accustomed. All of our dogs have been altered and given their vaccinations by our veterinarians as well as other necessary medical attention. Our adoption fees vary, generally up to $350 depending on the animal's breed, age, health, adoptability, and how much we have had to spend on them medically. All adoption fees are considered donations and go directly toward the medical care of our pets. Donations will be greatly appreciated as all our funding comes from our adoption fees, donations, and small fundraisers. All donations go directly toward medical care and supplies for our animals and are tax-deductible (we are a 501(c)(3) non-profit). We can always use volunteers to help with fostering mainly, and sometimes fundraising, supply collection and transport. Email us to volunteer njwoof@cs.com
