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 Tony! Tony is a sweet and quirky 1-year-old, 30-pound supermutt (we think maybe a little Chihuahua, a little Corgi, and a whole lot of adorable!). He’s the perfect mix of High/Medium energy—full of fun, puppy playfulness, but also able to settle in and relax once he’s had his exercise. Tony gets along great with women, older kids, and other dogs, and would thrive in a home that has another friendly pup to show him the ropes. Some of his favorite activities include going for walks, hopping in the car for adventures, and—most importantly—any activity that involves food, which is his absolute greatest motivation. This lovable boy is fully potty trained, walks beautifully on a leash, and knows how to sit like a champ. He’s still working on his recall (right now it’s… not great!), and he’d benefit from continued positive training—especially with a patient, calm adopter who understands how to build trust through kindness and treats. Tony can feel nervous around men, bikes, or when someone corrects him too firmly, so he needs someone who will make him feel safe and supported. Tony’s personality is pure joy: he’s funny, affectionate, and does the cutest little tippy-taps when he knows food is coming. His favorite place to be is snuggled right up in your face—often with all ten toes pointed to the sky. He’s not a big barker and would do well in a home where someone is around during the day. If you’re looking for a loyal, silly, food-loving sidekick with a heart of gold, Tony might just be your perfect match. He’s ready to find a family who will love him for the gentle, goofy boy he is. Tony can’t wait to meet you! He is microchipped and up to date on all 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.
