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!

Must have fence. I am a pure bred German Shepard I will be 5 yrs old in April. My daddy passed away and his friends have been keeping me but they already have 2 dogs and they can't keep me forever. I am Very, very docile,they call me their big teddy bear. I love the other dogs, however I am too much for little dogs because I want to play but I'm too rough for them. I love kids and insists on being let out with them when they are waiting for the bus. I love walks, when my leash comes out I spin in circles and and starts to bark and talk to you. I love dog toys of any kind, my foster family has a box in the corner and I will go get out my toys throughout the day. I am extremely energetic and crave your attention. I do not jump up on furniture and am completely house broken. I have never chewed anything other then my toys, and I only bark when I needs something. I would make a great dog for a family with kids and would be very happy with other dogs, bigger dogs would be better they would be able to keep up with me.
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!
