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! Taylor is one of the bestest girls!! She has a bladder problem that cannot be surgically corrected, she could wear diapers but she absolutely hates them and we are not going to make her. Taylor LOVES to give kisses and LOVES to receive pets and attention. Taylor loves playing so another dog would be ideal for her :) REQUIRES - Fenced Yard, Another dog 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
Hello to all, I’m Nina, a 7 year old, approx. 20# Boston Terrier like NO OTHER! Retired from life of breeding, I’ve had my fill of other dogs both “male” (fur sure) and female. My pups were great but always taken from me over, and over and over again causing me to say “Enough is Enough” with other dogs (No Cats too). I MUST BE your ONE AND ONLY! NO way shape or form can I be near another dog, live with, befriend or even have access to another dog so a GOOD STURDY FENCE required for my adoption. NO EXCEPTIONS. On the “FLIP SIDE”, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, can’t say it enough, LOVE ALL PEOPLE from little crawly smelly dirty diaper tikes to gray haired old fogies, grumpy seniors. I DON’T CARE, I’ll love them to the end of the world and back! Talk about being STUCK TO YOUR HIP? Well, I’m a definite VELCRO GAL! You go upstairs, I go upstairs, down, I do down, in/out, whatever.. I’m there for you CONTANTLY a companion to give love, kisses and a smile on my face to MAKE YOUR DAY as you Faithful Companion! Although, I love all people, including kids, I need an adult only home as children to not have the ability to fully understand that I cannot be with other animals and need to be secured at all times so I don’t escape. Described as a “Cuddle Bug”, curling up with my person ANYTIME is where it’s at. Being a Boston Gal, I do have a bubbly personality that is comical at times, but also calm, cool and mature to enjoy lap time. If you think you’d want to “CUDDLE UP WITH ME” shoot Molly’s Place and e mail to meet me, NINA, a gal that can’t stand other dogs, but makes up for it with all love directed to her person/people! Kennel License # 7198 To submit an adoption application, visit mollysplacerescue.org. Fill the form out completely, print, scan and email back to mollysplace@verizon.net. You must obtain pre-approval prior to visiting the dog or cat. Adoptions fees include the following:    spay/neuter surgery,  microchip and registration,  age appropriate vaccinations,  initial dewormings,  Activyl for fleas,  tested for FeLV and FIV (cats only),  bubble bath prior to going home (dogs only) WE do not "HOLD" animals without an approved application and a non-refundable/non-transferable paid adoption fee.  Adoptions are on a first come, first serve basis.  We can not send extra pictures.  WE do not ship, you must pick up the pet.  Kitties must be transported in a secure cat carrier.   Pooches require a "martingale" collar and a non-retractable leash.

Story
✨Meet Ethel!✨ Ethel came to us as a transfer from ACCT Philadelphia after being surrendered due to his family relocating for work 🥺 Due to lack of space and demand of dogs in need at the other shelter this sweet dog was at risk of euthanasia. They were transferred to our care to be given the chance to find their forever home! All of our animals are fully vetted, including spay/neuter, microchipping, vaccinations, and any other necessary medical care. After adoption, dogs need time to adjust to their new homes and thrive with families who can provide exercise, enrichment, positive reinforcement training, and socialization. If you are interested in being considered for them please apply on our website at www.angelsretreat.org 💕 Angel’s Retreat West Chester, PA PA Kennel License 17335

Story
Jack is a little over a year old Boston terrier mix who is very timid and shy at first. He does do well with the other dogs and can be cat tested if needed too.He is very nervous around new people so a home with little to no visitors would be best as it is very overwhelming for him, He would do best with no children too. Once he warms up to you, he is a complete baby and will be the most loyal boy.Additional Info:Hillside SPCA is open to public 11 am-3 pm daily. Please consider stopping by to meet your new best friend!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.My name is Cinny and I am looking for a forever family! I am your typical puppy full of energy and love. I would like to have an active family with a fenced in yard so we can play outside. I love running and zipping all around my foster family's yard. I do great with other dogs and I love people. I am doing well with house training as long as you can get me outside and listen to my cues. I am fully vetted including being spayed. Toys and treats are my next favorite things after my people. I can be the best snuggler once you play with me to get some of this puppy energy out, so long walks or play time in the yard is what I am looking for. If you think we are a fit please go to www.allmuttsmatter.org and apply for me!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 17, 2026, 2:35 pm

Story
Hello, Milo was my brother’s dog and my brother passed away and i decided to keep him until i find him a loving home i did not want him going to a shelter, but i cannot keep him due to my landlord and living in a apartment, he is around 4-5 years old. I think he is best in a home with no other pets and no children, he has been around my female yorkie and he has done great with her but i’m not sure how he is with male dogs, cats or children.

Story
Meet Kane: Kane is about a 5 year old (as of August 2026) Shih Tzu / pug mix (best guess) that weighs about 10 pounds. Kane was surrendered to a northern Mississippi shelter by his owner. Kane was terribly matted and wasn't terribly fond of being touched when he was dropped off. Our guess is the owner didn't want to pay for a grooming and preferred to surrender him instead and he was very uncomfortable. Kane is currently being fostered in the south and would love to take the freedom ride north to Pennsylvania to meet more prospective families. Kane went to a groomer immediately and is now all cleaned up and comfortable. Once Kane was groomed and situated, he turned into a very affectionate little lap dog that is not the least bit reluctant to being touched or petted or even staying put for the groomer. Kane is a wonderful little dog that gets along with everyone and every dog. Kane will need grooming throughout his life and we want to be sure his new family understands that so he doesn’t endure the discomfort he went through in the past. Kane is currently house trained to a doggie door and may need patience while learning a new process. We would love for Kane to have a home with a fenced in yard so he can run and play freely, but it is not a requirement. Kane is up to date on his shots and neutered. If you are interested in an adding this cute little guy into your life, please go to Charlie’s Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application.
