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!

Poor little Murphy his family gave him and his two friends, Addison & Bugsy up because they don't want them anymore :(  So sad when people do not plan for their new family members and then think its ok to "dump" them.

We have promised little Murphy that when he is adopted this time it will be for life so please do not apply if you are not willing to commit for life!  Murphy deserves the loyalty that he will give in return.  Since he is a chihuahua we are requiring teenage children or older.  He is small and we do not want him injured.

Murphy is a little lovebug! He seems to like everybody he meets...not your typical chihuahua!He attaches very quickly to his caregiver. He just wants to love and be loved. He doesn't seem to know how to play yet, but we are working on that. Murphy enjoys spending time on your lap and cuddling with you on your favorite chair.  If you are looking to cuddle up on your chair with a good book and a friend, Murphy would be delighted to meet you! 

Please fill out an adoption application:
Adoption application (Dog)
Adoption Application (Cat)

 

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!
