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!

Hi folks! I am "Wilma the Wonder Dog"! Yes, people wonder all the time how a sweetheart like me ended up in a high kill shelter. And they wonder...why does she walk funny, and wonder is she...talking, really? I walk funny because my knees were bad from birth but they don't hurt and you should see me run around the backyard! I have gotten stronger and can do steps and beat you up onto the chair now. Talking is my specialty too so we can talk all about anything that's on your mind. I know there is a human out there who wants to be my best freind and we can help each other get through the good times and bad times of life. I love to cuddle and follow you everywhere so you would never have to be alone. I don't mind a crate but don't think I need one since I am such a calm good girl. I don't choose to play with other dogs since I like playing with "my people" so much so I would be fine alone or with another freindly older little dog. Fill out an application if you need a Wonder Dog in your life! My foster mom says I need a home with a fenced yard and no small children either so I am always handled carefully because of my bum knees.
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!
