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!

Hi there! My name is Roxy and snuggling is my favorite! If you promise to share your blankets with me we will be best buds! I LOVE to run and play with my medium-sized foster sibling, sniff everything and chew on nylabones. I prefer not to be crated a whole lot. If you work and need to crate me, 6-7 hours is my maximum. I would greatly benefit from walks and some playtime before being crated. Did I mention I’m housetrained?


My foster parents told me I’m allowed to make some additional requests…so here it goes: I would like an active household, someone who will walk me daily or even take me on a run. I need a fence. I love to run around and play but, I’m a hound my nose leads the way! It would be nice if you would share your bed with me too. Oh and blankets, don’t forget snuggling together under blankets is mandatory! Won’t you consider adopting a fun girl like me? While my foster family is pretty cool, I would love to have my very own forever family!


Ps. One last note, like most hounds, I’m not very good with small dogs or kitties. In my defense it is only because I think they are fun toys that move! I just need someone with a little patience and lots of love.

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!
