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, my name is Sammy.  I am sweet shih tzu mix that loves to be loved.  I was found in Philadelphia living on the streets.  Now I live in my new foster home with my foster mom and dad and shih tzu brother and sister, Molly and Davis.  We are all getting along good.  I love to lay in the doggy beds around the house and sleep at night in bed with my mom and dad and furry friends.  I came here with a badly infected eye.  My foster mom took me to the vet and I am taking my medicine and eye ointment like a champ.  OK, really I am not a fan but I let her do it so I get better.  I am learning how to love a treat when I am a good boy and take my medicine.  I would love  forever home where I can relax and be loved.  I love to take walks and then come home and just rest and relax.  If you are looking for a nice friend to snuggle and love I am your guy!!!

More about Sammy

Good with Dogs

Please fill out an adoption application:
Adoption application (Dog)
Adoption Application (Cat)

 

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!
