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!

Look Santa if you need any help with the sled this year I have been training and I am ready.  Help me and my friends find our forever homes.  We all have been very good this year.

How could anyone have given me up? I just don't understand. All I want for Christmas is a family who will love me forever!! I LOVE to cuddle with my foster mommy, daddy and their boys. I spend my days playing with my foster sister and brother, two other shih tzu's. My foster mommy says that I'm a little skinny right now but I have a healthy appetite and am starting to gain weight. I'm very friendly and will follow you around the house. I love to be with my people and sleep with them at night. Please give me a forever home to call my own, I promise to love you forever!!! 

By the way, I'm getting groomed later this week so I will look even more handsome than I do right now!

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!
