My story

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

Meet Chance!!  For much of his life, Chance knew confinement instead of comfort. He was chained to a couch, surrounded by roaches, and fed bread just to keep him quiet. He wasn’t given love, safety, or even the freedom to move, only survival.  And yet, somehow, Chance never gave up.  Despite everything he endured, his spirit remained gentle. He still trusts people. He still seeks affection. He still wags his tail as if the world has always been kind to him.  Chance is a 2-year-old Boxer/Hound mix, about 30 pounds. He’s thin from neglect but eating well now. He’s house-trained, knows basic commands, and does beautifully with dogs and cats. He will still need a vet visit to be neutered, but he’s otherwise ready to start the life he was always denied.  Chance doesn’t know what he did wrong. He doesn’t know why he was treated the way he was. All he knows is that he’s safe now and he’s hoping that safety doesn’t end here.  Chance deserves a home where chains are replaced with walks, fear is replaced with love, and silence is replaced with his name being called gently.

Please help give Chance the second chance he’s waited his whole life for.

Additional adoption info

You are required to sign a legally binding contact on your new pet. As part of that contract, should you no longer be able to keep the animal for any reason, the animal MUST be surrendered back to SAAP. This is to ensure the animal is placed back in foster care while we secure a new approved home for the animal. However, we always try to ensure that the initial placement is best for the pet and your family. We reserve the right to refuse any adoption.

More about this rescue

We are an all-volunteer 501(c)3 non profit organization. We are dedicated to the rescue of animals that are in need of a forever home. Our animals are fostered in homes where we provide love, food, medical care and socialization until adoption into a new loving home. We educate on the importance of spaying and neutering of all pets.

We ensure all animals have been spayed or neutered prior to adoption. They are micro-chipped, up to date on shots and on heartworm and anti-flea medications (as age appropriate). They are ready and waiting to start their new life with their fur-ever family. Could that be you?

We need your help to continue our mission. We rely solely on donations and fundraisers. All donations are tax-deductible and 100% of your donation will go towards the rescue, care, and medical needs of the animals.

If you need info on a cat or kitten please contact 859-391-2944
For all other questions please call our main line: 859-391-1234
