Second Chance Animal Rescue

About

Second Chance Animal Rescue incorporated in 1994 as a nonprofit 501(c)(3), all-volunteer organization. We are dedicated to rescuing, caring for and adopting out homeless dogs and cats into loving and responsible homes. We educate the public on respect for all animal life, including the importance of spaying and neutering in order to reduce the number of animals euthanized.

Adoption process

Because we care about each and every animal we take into our program and want you to experience a rewarding, lifetime relationship with your new companion, Second Chance rescued dogs and cats live in experienced volunteer foster homes and become part of their families, enjoying daily care, love, and enrichment. Our dedicated volunteers, many of whom have over ten year’s experience with Second Chance, provide top quality care for the dogs and cats and learn about their unique personalities in order to help the Second Chance counselors make the right match for you and the animal you adopt. The fosters work with each animal to teach them good manners (if they don’t already have them) and address any other behavioral or medical issues the cats or dogs may have. Once they are ready for adoption, our experienced adoption counselors provide you with a careful, honest assessment of each animal’s health, temperament, and behavior in order to make the right match for your family and lifestyle. The animal you adopt from us will have been vaccinated, heartworm or FeLV & FIV checked, dewormed and spayed or neutered. Your new companion will also receive a permanent ID tag and a free initial veterinarian examination. And, our commitment won’t end at the adoption. If you have any questions or concerns years down the road, we will give you and your adopted companion animal our ongoing support.
