My story

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

Patches is a shy girl when you first meet her but she loves doggie day care and is a very sweet girl. Patches is best with another dog and no toddlers / small children.

She is crate trained and house broken. Cats are not her fave and she does focus a little too much on them. Patches would love a home that give her some basic obedience training, lots of love and playtime.

More about this rescue

Second Chance” is not a second chance for dogs, because that would presume they had a first chance and failed. The majority of the dogs we rescue never had any chances, first, second, or otherwise. The name of our rescue refers to giving humans a second chance to provide a safe, healthy, and loving home and environment for our dogs, since most of these dogs come to us after they have been abused or neglected by their owners.

SCF solely relies on volunteers to get the work done and no one receives compensation for their work. SCF receives no funding from the government or the United Way. Our adoption fees and donations from other dog lovers cover our costs.
