Annabelle's Second Chance Dog rescue in Richmond, VA

Annabelle's Second Chance is a small private foster home based rescue located in Central Virginia to Central and Eastern North Carolina. We officially began our organized rescue efforts in the Summer of 1999 even though we have been unofficially rescuing homeless pets for our entire lives and been involved with the breed since the early 90s. Our rescue began with a quest to rescue and adopt out a wonderful pit bull named Annabelle who has become our mascot and namesake. Annabelle's Second Chance received its 501(c) 3 June 2005.
