My Rescue
Login to Remember your Favorite Animals and Breeds!

 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!

Hi there! My name is Ryder and here is my story: I was found with my brother by two friends who were hiking in the woods this past fall. They scooped us up and took great care of us; one took my brother and the other took me. She loved me but her landlord said she couldn't keep me forever.  That's when she reached out to the rescue  to make sure I found a forever home. I adjusted very quickly to my foster home and my foster siblings  because  I am very social, curious, playful and cuddly!  I would love to be adopted into a home with another kitten or a home that already has cats  for me to play with.  My foster mom does not have any dogs but she thinks I would likely do well with one and would be willing to try at a home visit .   I do not like to be alone and love all the attention I can get.  My foster mom says I am the total package because of  how well I get along with my siblings , how social and outgoing I am to friends and family who come to visit and want to hold me and because I am a real love bug to snuggle with . I love to cuddle with my foster siblings but at night I also love to curl up  in my foster mom's arms.  She says I am very vocal and will let you know when I  want attention and need you to hold me .  If you're looking for a snuggle buddy  I am the one for you !

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!
