Kylie

My story

Meet Kylie! Another shy but sweet natured Boston Terrier who spent her life in a cage in a puppy mill. Humans are scary, but her whole body wiggles and she comes alive as soon as she sees another dog, and we know living with other friendly dogs will help her come out of her shell. Everything about a normal home is new to her- walking on leash, playing with toys, housebreaking, having a name, being held and petted… she’s experienced none of that these past 2ish years as she was born and grew up in a mill, her doggie friends her only source of comfort. Kylie is looking for a calmer adult home understanding of puppy mill survivor behaviors and fears that will give her time to adjust and open up at her pace. She’s not shown any aggression, all flight and no fight, and will need extra precautions to make sure she never has a chance to get loose or bolt. MUST have at least one other compatible doggie buddy to live with- she would be miserable and terrified without canine companionship no matter how much human affection she gets. Please email njwoof@cs.com to meet Kylie 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.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Kylie, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
