Happy Helga:)

My story

Our sweet senior Pomeranian Helga is all smiles all the time these days! She’s recovering nicely from surgery to remove 2 masses and the biopsy came back as benign 🎉. She’s officially ready for adoption. This happy go lucky sweetheart loves meeting people and other dogs and doesn’t know she’s a senior, although her body unfortunately doesn’t always cooperate with her young mind. She’s put together all wrong with luxated knees that make her look double jointed and sometimes go out the wrong way, and bad arthritis in her back so she’s on pain meds and joint supplements longterm and isn’t running any marathons. But she bounces around the house and yard happily, doesn’t mind being picked up if there are stairs, and just a lovable cuddly little companion. Email njwoof@cs.com to meet Helga 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 Happy Helga:), please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
