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 at me aren't I just the cutest little thing you have EVER seen????  And I know it! 
I had a tough start.  My owner put me in a soft top luggage carrier on the top of her car, parked in a convenience store parking lot and left with her girlfriend.  I only weighed 2.5 lbs and it was VERY cold.  My owner had a water bottle in the car and it was frozen solid!!!  Finally I couldn't stand the cold and being alone so I started to cry very loudly and some workers who stopped for coffee heard me and called the police.  The police came to investigate and found me THANK GOD because by then I was reallllllly cold!  They estimate I was in the car top more than 5 hours.  They were worried I wouldn't make it but my foster mommy in WV took extra special good care of me and now I am with my foster mommy in PA who promises my next family will love me lots, never give me up, NEVER leave me in a car whether it is cold or hot!!  Since I'm a beagle I MUST have a nice big fenced yard that I can run around in but not let my nose get the better of me and take off!
I'm too little to be altered yet so 2nd Chance rules say I must be adopted by someone within 45 minutes of  Elizabethtown so the rescue can keep tabs on me and make sure my new family follows the contract and I'm altered before I'm 6 months old.

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!
