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, We are Gracie & Rusty. We are loving our foster home because they let us play with all the other dogs. We have 2 sisters, Bella & Trixie & a brother, Max. When we arrived at our foster home we were very scared but after a short time I realized that I was going to be okay. My foster mom gave me a bath & she sat with me on the floor and just allowed me to come to her. I (Gracie) love to run around the house and play with Max & Rusty every morning and whenever we can. I love to go out onto the big deck at my house and lay in the sunshine or inside by the big window which lets the sunlight shine on me. I also like to snuggle with my foster dad and get my belly rubbed by him. I (Rusty) also love to play with my brother & sisters. They are so much fun. I love to have my toys that I can carry around. I'm okay with going outside but not as much as my sister (Gracie) I like to lay in my crate with my toys . I'm not as sassy as my sister who loves to know everything that is going on. We love to go for walks when the weather is nice and I'm learning to go for car rides but I still get a bit nervous when in the car but we are getting better. I'm looking for my forever home with someone who will give me all the love & kisses that I get now from my foster mom & dad.

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!
