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!

Oh My Gosh! Somehow I got lost and ended up in a kill shelter. I tried telling everyone I saw how much I really didn't belong in there!! I kept saying "c'mon people just open the cage please and let me out. I would love you and kiss you and hug you and be the best boy ever. You will never have an unhappy moment with me around!" A foster for 2nd Chance heard my plea and now I am safe and waiting for a real forever home. True to my word I do everything I can to make everyone I meet smile. My fosters named me Tickles because I tickle the funny bone of everyone. Really! I wiggle all over and bounce and play and I only stop to nap and get some pets. I am neutered and microchipped and am current with my vaccinations. I don't know what that means exactly but if it helps you pick me to be your forever play buddy I'll be even more happy!
My foster Mom says a home with adults and/or older respecful children would be best and I love to play so another small dog to play with would be great too. And, she says I am a typical Chihuahua and do not bark any more than any other dog. I am good in my crate and try to be patient.
Fill out an application if you would like to meet me. :) Wiggles and snuggles! Sincerely, Tickles
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!
