 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!

Kira is a beautiful 3 1/2 year old American Eskimo mix  This pretty gal is very sociable, lovable and has a laid back personality.  She is great on a leash, and very well mannered.  Kira is a "people person dog" who loves all the attention she can possible get.  
Kira recently had surgery.  She had a nail that went out the side of her foot, which caused her to wear down 3 other toenails to the nerves so everytime she walked on a hard surface it was like walking on raw nerves or to relate it to us think of a tooth with a nerve exposed that's what Kira was feeling in her foot poor little girl.  The vet thinks she may have had to deal with this every since she was a small puppy and possibly her mommy stepped on her toenail causing it to grow wrong.  After $450 Kira is now rehabbing and wearing a cushioned little sock and doing foot soakes until her foot is totally healed.  We love you Kira!! 
2nd Chance sooooooo needs foster families so that more wonderful, loving dogs can be saved from taking their last breath won't you please consider opening your heart and home to just one furry one at a time?????  PLEASE fill our a foster application we promise you won't regret it!

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!
