Story
Meet MJ (“Max”)! Max is a handsome 1-year-old Border Collie mix with brains, energy, and a whole lot of love to give! This smart boy is neutered, crate trained, house trained, and eager to learn. He already knows sit, lay down, wait, and stay, and he’s currently mastering spin and place. Max absolutely loves people and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. He’s happiest when he has room to run, play, and frolic in the yard—sometimes with a few excited barks to let everyone know he’s having the best day ever! Because of his herding breed mix and active nature, Max would thrive with an active family and a securely fenced yard where he can safely burn off energy and enjoy outdoor adventures. While Max adores dogs and humans alike, a home without cats is best for him. This young boy is looking for a family that will continue his training, keep his mind busy, and give him the love and exercise he craves. In return, Max will reward you with loyalty, fun, and endless affection. Could Max be the perfect addition to your family?

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! Image growing up in a yard with a human throwing you food over a fence and pouring water in your already dirty water day after day.  The human never touched you or the other three dogs in the yard and you lived outside like this summer, winter spring and fall until finally 8 years into your life someone reported your owner to the authorities and they finally came to save you!  You found yourself placed in a box separate from the only friends you had ever known.  Taken to a noisy shelter, poked, probed, bathed and then stuck in a kennel alone.  WOW SCARY right???  Well that was the experience for Max's, his best friend Moose and his 2 other fur buddies.  Unfortunately the oldest of the 4 was quite ill and passed away :(   The other one was adopted and seems to be doing well.  Max's was very shut down until the shelter staff placed him with Moose and then they saw Max's come back to life!   We couldn't allow Max's to lose the only friend he has ever had on this earth so we are taking both boys and they will only be adopted as a bonded pair with a contract signed that they will NOT be separated!! Max's & Moose will have to learn to live in a home, walk on a leash and understand what it is like to be valued and actually LOVED by a human.  If you would like to be considered for the boys please fill out an adoption application.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. We do not adopt dogs to renters. Some dogs will have fence requirements while others may not. A pet is a lifetime commitment. The dogs and cats in our system find themselves there, for the most part, because their humans did not have the same loyalty to them as they did to their owners. We do not take the adoption process lightly, and will do everything in our power to make sure the animal is placed correctly the first time around for your sake and theirs. Thank you for choosing to adopt not shop!

Story
Meet Judy. While her tag says "senior," her vitality says otherwise. Judy loves people, having her hair brushed, and going for walks—she might need a joint chew after her walk. Judy hates to be alone; if you leave her in a yard, she will start looking for all those bones she's buried, then jump up to give you a hug with her muddy paws. If you're looking for a constant companion, your ride or die, Judy's your girl. On a side note, she is not a fan of thunderstorms; she will want to be by your side and shows her anxiety by panting.

These pups are in York, Pennsylvania too!

Story
Cooper is a handsome senior gentleman who came to us after his owner moved and was unable to take him along. Despite this big change in his life, Cooper has remained the sweet, laid-back boy we've come to know and love. Cooper enjoys the simple things in life, leisurely walks, plenty of time to sniff and explore, and soaking up affection from his favorite people. As we continue getting to know him, he has shown us that he is a well-mannered companion with a gentle nature. Now, Cooper is looking for a loving family to spend his golden years with. He deserves a comfortable home, a cozy place to rest, and people who will cherish him for the wonderful dog he is. In return, Cooper is ready to offer loyalty, companionship, and plenty of love. 3159 Susquehanna Trail N York PA 17406 Kennel #3537

Story
This decision has not been made lightly, but we are looking to rehome our girl. Ella is 9 years old and is a good dog. She is a pure bread Australian shepherd and loves to play fetch. She is protective of her space and her people so will "heard" visitors in the house but has never actually bit someone aggressively. We had to move in with my parents and although they gave a chance to keep her, they would like her gone as she has started to "heard" my grandfather because she doesn't like the sound of his walker and we can't have her knocking him over. We also have had 4 kids on 3 years (twins in March) and she is just having a difficult time adjusting to the decrease in attention. She knocks the older two over and has stepped on one of the babies. Because of these actions she ends up being locked in a basement most of the day, which doesn't help these actions at all. She just deserves better and I hope to find someone who can give her what she deserves as I am no longer able.
