More about the shelter
In many areas of the country, especially in the South, the situation for animals is desperate: Chained outside and starving, homeless and running loose, or just simply no longer wanted and abandoned in an overburdened and underfunded facility that can’t possibly take another. For these animals, there is not much hope…except to look in the night sky for the North Star, their only way out. We are a group of passionate volunteers committed to saving these innocent dogs and finding them a new forever home. NorthStar Pet Rescue was founded in 2017, and although we might be a relatively new name among New Jersey animal rescues, you may recognize some of us from the work we’ve done volunteering with other rescues to help animals over the past decade. We are 100% dedicated to operating in an safe, transparent, and ethical manner and to ensuring the best veterinary practices are followed with regards to the care and transport of our animals. NorthStar Pet Rescue is IRS 501(c)(3) charitable organization (EIN: 81-5348036).
Potential adopters will submit an adoption application. The adopters information will be screened including veterinary and personal references. After the first round of screening they will get the chance to meet the pet. If it is a good match, as deemed by NSPR volunteers, the adopter will complete an adoption contract and pay the fee of 375.00. All animals will be spayed/neutered and fully vetted prior to adoption. The only exception would be small puppies in which case the adopter will submit an additional deposit refundable upon proof of spay/neuter. In the event an animal is no longer wanted, the adoption contract will stipulate that the animal always gets returned to us, and is never sold, given away, or surrendered to another rescue or shelter.
About Midge TX

Midge is the most snaggle-toothed pup we've ever seen! She was recently rescued from a shelter in Texas - this sweet girl is about 8 years old and weighs 13 pounds.
Midge is a laid back girl and she just wants to follow you around everywhere. She gets along with other dogs and she's currently living with 2 cats and has been absolutely fine with them. Midge is well behaved in the car, loves her daily walks and has no problem keeping up with the 4 year old dogs in her foster home!
Midge is house trained for the most part but if she is left alone for longer than 6 hours during the day, she might have an accident. She sleeps through the night without an accident as long as she sleeps in the same room with her people.
Midge recently had surgery to close up a fistula (hole) in the roof of her mouth. There is a chance that she may need more surgery in the future. She also had a number of bad teeth removed but she is still the snaggle-toothed girl we love!
If you'd like to meet Midge, please complete an adoption application at www.northstarpets.org and be sure to ask for MIDGE TX!
