Story
Current Location: Fairfax, VA Meet Eeyore: A Sweet, Gentle Soul with a Growing Confidence Eeyore is a 7 month old hound mix sweetheart! This curious and gentle pup loves cuddles and is quickly learning about the world around him. He's smart and making great progress with his training, showing just how capable and willing he is to learn. Personality and Energy Eeyore is a super sweet, gentle, playful pup who is generally relaxed but enjoys occasional play or short walks. He's content with light daily activity, making him adaptable to various lifestyles. He loves his chewy carrot toy, immediately loved his fluffy bed, and adores sitting by the window looking out at the world. Right now, he's also a big fan of ice cubes and his squeaky toys. Building Confidence Eeyore is curious but still shy and a little timid. All he needs is some calm, gentle encouragement to help his confidence grow. When he first arrived at his foster home, he was really scared of the outside stairs. Just a day later, his confidence had grown and he was going up and down most flights when going out for walks! This shows how quickly he can blossom with patience and support. Training and Intelligence Eeyore is very smart and is learning "sit." He's not super food motivated, but if you use a smelly treat like a roasted chicken stick, he pays more attention. Praise after doing something (like going up or down stairs or going potty) seems to make a real difference. He responds really well to correction and redirection, and he already knows "no." He's doing well with leash and crate training and is very good on a leash. He's not quite housetrained yet, but he's working on it and making progress with his smart, willing attitude. Best Home Fit Eeyore needs a calm, patient home that will give him the gentle encouragement he needs to continue building his confidence. He would thrive with someone who appreciates his sweet, gentle nature and is willing to guide him as he learns about the world. If you're looking for a curious, loving companion who will reward your patience with growing confidence and devotion, Eeyore is waiting to meet you! Apply today!

Story
My step daughter adopted her as a puppy, but she has gone to college and I can't afford to keep her. She's good with cats, chickens, older kids, she should be watched with younger children, although has always lived with them. She can be protective of the house and her people. She's been around livestock, she shows quite a bit of interest, but could be trained to get along with them I believe. The other day she met a teenage deer in the woods and they sniffed each other, and she started play bowing and seemed to want to be friends! She would do great in a farm type situation, especially where she could be a guardian. She can be bossy, and would do best with someone who understands guarding breeds. She can be on the fence about other dogs. She's always lived with them, but introducing them takes time. She is highly trainable, very affectionate, loves to cuddle and be next to you, bonds tightly with her people. She has some anxiety, that we have been working on.

These pups are in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania too!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. 2nd Chance 4 Life Rescue is primarily a sanctuary for senior and medically needy dogs.  Every once in awhile you will see younger dogs but for the most part our dogs live out their life at the ranch at the request of their previous owners or their owners families.  We have many sponsorship dogs.  Our sponsors love to keep in touch and know how their sponsored fur buddy is doing :) When we have foster families we are thrilled to be able to take adoptable younger dogs :)  So if you have ever thought about becoming fosters please feel free to go to our foster/volunteer page and fill out an application. The Ranch located at 737 Taylor Rd., Windsor, PA is always looking for dedicated volunteers that will commit to at least a 2 hour shift per week at the rescue.  Volunteers work in play yards, help with laundry and feeding.  Some enjoy landscaping or carpentry projects and some like to bake for the healing center visitors :) Thank you for supporting our mission of caring for the elderly and medically needy souls that need us! Hey there, I’m one of the lucky beagles — and wow, do I have a story! &#226&#156&#168 I’ve spent over half my life being beaten and mistreated. My owner ran a cockfighting ring (yeah, real classy guy ), and when he finally got caught, all five of my beagle buddies and I were scooped up and taken off the property. We were terrified. But honestly? At that point, I figured things couldn’t get much worse. …well, turns out, they almost did. We were scheduled to be euthanized — and no, that’s not like a fancy award or a “good dog” certificate. It’s the bad kind. The “game over” kind. But then… BOOM! Hero moment! ‍&#226&#153&#128&#239&#184&#143‍&#226&#153&#130&#239&#184&#143 2nd Chance 4 Life Rescue swooped in and saved five of us! Another rescue had already claimed one, so the six of us were split up with care. A super cool couple agreed to take the three of us who were the most scared (hey, no shame — some of us are just delicate, okay?). The two braver beagles went off to the ranch, where they can run, play, and show off their confidence. As for me? I’m about to learn what it’s like to be loved — like, actually loved. Soft beds, belly rubs, snacks that I don’t have to steal, and humans who don’t yell or hit. Am I ready for a better life? HECK. YES. Bring on the treats, the naps, and the “who’s a good girl?” speeches. Spoiler: It’s me. I’m a good girl.REQUIREMENTSAnother dogFenced yard Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Please fill out an adoption application: Adoption application (Dog) Adoption Application (Cat)   Please understand we do not adopt out dogs to families with children under the age of 5.

Miso is truly the sweetest dog and is thriving in her foster home. She has the gentlest soul and absolutely adores people, making her the ultimate cuddle bug. Miso loves being close to her humans, whether that means snuggling on the couch, following you around the house, or soaking up all the affection she can get.   Because Miso is not good with small animals, she will not go to a home with any small animals in the house. She does best in a home with dogs her size or larger who can match her presence and energy. If you’re looking for a loving, affectionate companion with a heart full of sweetness and a passion for cuddles, Miso could be the perfect addition to your family.
