Join Our Pack! On a daily basis, we have new foster dogs and cats coming into the system that need medical care, such as insulin, heart meds, allergy meds etc. Won't you be part of the pack and help with a monthly donation?
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!

This tiny guy was found sitting in the middle of a road just waiting to be hit by a car :( The nice lady that found him, took him to her house & contacted 2nd Chance. Upon taking him to our vet, we discovered he was covered in fleas and tick larvae. He also had a bad infection in both eyes. After a few bathes, combing, and meds, he started feeling much better.
He has a good appetite and is starting to show an interest in toys. We still have him separated from our other cats & small dog but he is starting to get curious about the big world on the other side of the bathroom door!
He has a very sweet disposition and loves to cuddle. As soon as he gets on your lap, his motor revs up!
Archer tested negative for FeLV/FIV but he still needs to get his first round of vaccines. He should be ready to be adopted around August 1st.
UPDATE 7/18/19 - Hello everyone...Archer here. I'm loving this kitten life! I've made lots of friends in my foster home. I enjoy racing up & down the hallway for no apparent reason other than to show the other kitties how fast I am. I also like to "chill out" in a kitty bed or on a blanket. I cuddle when I'm really tired but I'd much rather play with the other kitties and even that weird looking cat that barks :) I went for my first round of vaccines and mommy said I was really brave.
UPDATE 9/16/17 - Archer continues to thrive in his foster home. He loves playing with the other foster kittens. His favorite toys are squeaky "mice" and the laser light. When he isn't playing, you can find him napping in the kitty tree. He has also discovered our picture window and loves to sun himself on the window ledge, watching the big world outside.
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!
