My story

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

ATTENTION:  All of our dogs are in private foster homes.  We do NOT have a kennel with multiple dogs.  If you find a dog you want to meet in person, please go to www.secondchancedogrescue.org and complete an application.    We will make every attempt to process all applications within 3 business days of receipt.


Meet Kai – your future best friend in the making! Kai is a sweet 4-year-old short-haired mix weighing around 25 pounds. This cheerful little guy is full of love and always excited to greet you when you walk through the door. He’s a loyal companion who enjoys being near his people and is content lounging in his bed while you work or relax. He does take some time to warm up to men, but once you earn his trust, he will love you right back. Kai looks forward to his daily walks, where he can indulge his curious nose and take in all the interesting smells. Mealtime is another highlight of his day—he gets adorably excited when it's time to eat! He’s currently working on learning his basic commands like “sit” and “stay,” and he's already mastered potty training and using a doggy door. Kai does best with dogs close to his own size, as larger pups can sometimes be a bit overwhelming for him. He’s okay with kids and cats, too, and is gradually building confidence with new experiences and environments. While some things can still be a little scary, Kai is learning to navigate the world with more ease every day. If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate, and easygoing companion, Kai might just be the perfect match for you! He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccines. His adoption fee is $300.



All Second Chance Dog Rescue dogs are spayed/neutered, are up to date on vaccines and have microchips prior to adoption.   Adoption fees vary depending on age of dog. Fees help Second Chance Dog Rescue cover spay/neuter costs,   vaccinations, medical treatments, food and supplies. Please go to  www.secondchancedogrescue.org  and complete an application today!    All dogs live in private foster homes until they are adopted.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We require an Adoption Questionnaire to be completed - whether online or in person - before meeting any of our dogs. Upon approval of the Questionnaire, a potential adopter will be required to complete an Adoption Contract and pay adoption fees. All of our adoptions start with the first 2 weeks as a 'trial' period, to ensure the adoption is a good fit. Adoption of a puppy may require a refundable training deposit, which will be refunded upon completion of training with a Certfied dog trainer, and submission of certificate of completion to our office.

More about this rescue

Second Chance Dog Rescue was formed to fulfill a desperate need in the community to Rescue, Rehabilitate & Re-home homeless dogs from the over-crowded local shelters, and from families who can no longer take care of their dogs (on a case-by-case basis only).

Our program is based on foster care, and all rescued dogs spend their first days at a loving foster home where they receive personalized care. As part of our program, we ensure that all dogs are vaccinated, are spayed or neutered, and have been socialized by their foster family. In addition, Second Chance Dog Rescue provides support for potential new owners and monitors progress for both new pet parents and their adopted dogs. This helps guarantee that our dogs go to good, loving, forever homes.
