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!

Bindi in a sweet little girl that came to us on 3/19/11. We are not 100% sure what mix she is, although she has various personality traits of a border collie. We are thinking she may have some pit bull in her as well. She is already housebroken and whines at the door to go out. We have discovered that she knows basic commands and a few tricks! So far we have found she knows sit, stay, down, come, sit pretty, and speak. Bindi has already won over everyone in her foster family's hearts. Just like you would expect out of a border collie mix, she does show interest in herding/chasing the cats at times. However, with a simple no command or leave it, she moves on. She has been nose to nose with one of the family cats and did great, and let him rub up against her. The other dog in the foster family and her get along well. She loves to play ball and play with anything squeaky she can fit in her mouth. We will update as we get to know her more. Feel free to email me with any questions you may have and I will answer them the best I can.
Bindi needs an active family that will give her plenty of exercise!
Every border collie needs a job so please don't choose a border collie if you are looking for a couch potato.
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!
