Second Chance Dog Rescue is a group of volunteer dog lovers whose mission is to rescue, provide sanctuary, and ultimately re-home abandoned, stray and neglected dogs that have come from high kill shelters or owners who can no longer care for them. Second Chance Dog Rescue Dogs are housed in foster homes until well matched and carefully screened forever homes can be found. Each dog is examined by a vet and then spayed or neutered, brought up-to-date on shots, micro-chipped and heartworm checked before being placed in their new homes. When time permits, our dogs are also housetrained and taught basic obedience. Second Chance Dog Rescue serves as a resource to our community and all pet owners by providing education and information on responsible pet ownership as well as increasing public awareness of companion animal overpopulation issues, the importance of feeding good nutritional food and keeping their companion animals up to date on their shots as well as heartworm prevention.
