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!
About Buddy
Status: Adopted!
Species: Dog
General Color: Black with White
Location: 17078
Housetrained: Yes
My Buddy was dropped off at the shelter when his owner decided he couldn't take care of him anymore; so unfair for such a loving and loyal companion. He has happily accepted a foster spot at 2nd Chance and is back to loving life while he awaits his new forever family. Buddy is a senior and is eligible for our seniors for seniors discount; but don't tell him that because I don't think he knows he's a senior.
Buddy loves to explore his environment at his methodical pace, taking note of every nook and cranny...and yes, he remembers each and every one! Once he knows his environment he is content to hang out with his people and any canine siblings. He is content to sit in a lap, but just as happy to stretch out on the floor next to your feet. He is house trained and will let you know when he needs to go out, arriving back at your feet when he is finished with his business. He is also a neat eater, a studious car rider, a gentleman for a bath, will sit patiently for a brush or ear cleaning, and is a joy on a leash for short walks. In short, he is an all around wonderful companion that won't need all of the training and energy of a younger, less mature dog. Won't you consider brightening Buddy's golden years as a member of your family & he will brighten your family ten-fold in return with his love and attention.
If you are interested in Buddy, please fill out an application; he is waiting patiently.

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!
