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!

Hey, you guys! It's me-- Biscuit! <3 Let me tell you a little bit about me. Well, I was down at a high kill shelter in Philadelphia called ACCT, when my now foster parents got an email stating that I had been hit by a car, was in desperate need of medical treatment, and I would be killed by the shelter since the Thanksgiving holiday was rapidly approaching. A picture of me was attached to that e-mail. My foster mom emailed my foster dad and said, "What do you think?" His response? "Let's save him."
They got me the next day, after I had been checked out by 2nd Chance 4 Life's amazing vet, Dr. Clements, and I was so excited, because I didn't have to have surgery! I was ordered to have 6 weeks of crate rest, because my hip was hurt when the car hit me. Fast forward six weeks, plus another week to recover from my neuter surgery, and here we are! Now, I love to run and play, but I will need to still take it relatively easily (no marathon training for this guy!).
I am the biggest cuddle bug in the world, I am potty trained, and I am super well behaved. I do pretty darn well on a leash, and I LOVE walks. Because of my prevous accident, I am hard of hearing, and I'm easily startled. As a result, I'm a little afraid of other dogs. So, I will need to be the only dog in your life for now. TRUST ME- I'll more than make up for it. I will stare up at you while we cuddle, give kisses, and share my endless love with you. Plus, my foster parents say I'm really funny. They are the best!
So, what do you say? Do you think I might be the perfect match for you? YES?! Well, what are you waiting for? Submit an application for me -- I'm so ready for my forever home!
XOXO, Biscuit
P.S. Wondering how I got my name? Since I was my foster parents' Thanksgiving miracle, they named me after their FAVORITE Thanksgiving side dish-- Biscuits. ;)
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!
