Rover needs a caretaker or foster! Won't you consider helping him get a new start?

Print an adoption flyer for Rover!

 2nd Chance 4 Life Rescue is primarily a sanctuary for senior and medically needy dogs.  Every once in awhile you will see younger dogs but for the most part our dogs live out their life at the ranch at the request of their previous owners or their owners families.  We have many sponsorship dogs.  Our sponsors love to keep in touch and know how their sponsored fur buddy is doing :)
When we have foster families we are thrilled to be able to take adoptable younger dogs :)  So if you have ever thought about becoming fosters please feel free to go to our foster/volunteer page and fill out an application.
The Ranch located at 737 Taylor Rd., Windsor, PA is always looking for dedicated volunteers that will commit to at least a 2 hour shift per week at the rescue.  Volunteers work in play yards, help with laundry and feeding.  Some enjoy landscaping or carpentry projects and some like to bake for the healing center visitors :)
Thank you for supporting our mission of caring for the elderly and medically needy souls that need us!

Well hey there my name is Rover.  I ended up in a kill shelter.  Now that is scary!!!  Please dont say bad things about the shelter because at least I wasn't getting attacked by other animals and I wasn't starving to death and I wasn't hot and couldn't find a way to cool down.  Its not their fault that humans keep dumping their responsibilities and when there are no more cages and we are packed in the hallway and bathrooms etc well something has to happen and so far humans haven't decided to fix the problem by stopping breeding so we can catch up :(   anyhooo I heard the nice kennel lady talking to another lady and she said a bunch of us were going to be "euthanized" at the end of the week.  Now I had heard them say that once before and when those dogs left they didn't come back and people were crying so I don't think it was a good thing :(  Lucky for me a lady got ahold of this place called 2nd Chance 4 Life Rescue and they are saving me!!!  All I know is that I am getting out of this cage and going on a long ride to the North and its supposed to be REALLY nice!!!  I hope so because sitting and sleeping on cement and never getting to go outside to play is really making me sad :(
Ohhhh I met a deer today and I lost my stuff!!  I didn't behave very well so the lady called the rescue and said "he's not deer friendly"  WOW I thought I had blown my chance but they just said "good to know"

Please fill out an adoption application:

Please understand we do not adopt out dogs to families with children under the age of 5. We do not adopt dogs to renters. Some dogs will have fence requirements while others may not.

 

A pet is a lifetime commitment. The dogs and cats in our system find themselves there, for the most part, because their humans did not have the same loyalty to them as they did to their owners. We do not take the adoption process lightly, and will do everything in our power to make sure the animal is placed correctly the first time around for your sake and theirs. Thank you for choosing to adopt not shop!
