My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

We hear it our whole lives - "Just be yourself!" Well, we truly believe dogs should be afforded that same opportunity, shouldn't they? Peanut really is one-of-a-kind, but that also means he's a once-in-a-lifetime dog. We're hoping to find a home that will allow Peanut to be the magical, majestic, floofy unicorn he is.

So, what does that mean exactly?
- Peanut LOVES to be outside, no matter if it's snowing or raining or probably even tornado-ing. That's why he has his own private kennel area here, with a heated bedroom, enclosed sunroom and 24-hour access yard. No jacuzzi yet, but we're working on it.
- Peanut isn't what we'd call a super "cuddly" dog. He shows love and affection in his own way, and he has so much of it to give! Maybe in a home, he might feel more comfortable and become a big cuddle bear, but it's something we can't guarantee.
- Like all dogs (and people), Peanut has his likes and dislikes. For example, Peanut hates his fur being picked at. Yes, sometimes that means leaving the loose tufts, burrs and whatever else sticks in his mane. It's our hope a home could work with him further on that, but that it's not a dealbreaker if he never comes around.
- Peanut is a big boy. Photos truly never do him justice. He's about 100 pounds, and his head is massive. That means he needs lots of space (both inside and out), so he's not really made for an apartment.
- Peanut is a HAPPY boy. Even here, Peanut is rarely not smiling or excited to see people. In fact, he loves people. He also loves treats and is so gentle taking them. All he really wants is someone who "gets" him. Could that be you?

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

Fill out an application at the sanctuary or www.secondchanceas.org/adopt (Inquiries on online listings don't constitute an application)

2.

Interview

We will call your veterinarian and personal references. We'll also call you if we have questions or need more information.

3.

Approve Application

We will approve or deny the application. You may be approved to adopt, but not necessarily the same animal you originally applied for.

4.

Meet the Pet

This may be done before applying. You'll be asked to sign an adoption contract and to make a certain donation amount, rather than a set fee.

Additional adoption info

We are passionate about pairing animals in need with loving families who would best suit their individual needs. NOTE: You do not have to apply for a specific animal on your application. You can submit it as a "pre-application" for a certain size, age or breed of animal, and if approved, we can contact you if a possible match arrives at the shelter.
