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 Burrito!  Burrito is 3+  years old and weighs about 20 pounds.  He is a dachshund mix.  Burrito is a lively and affectionate dog. He is an animated ball of energy, loves nothing more than running around and getting in a good day's worth of play. But Burrito isn't all about fun and games - he's also tender-hearted and enjoys cuddle time. Burrito's sweet and loving nature shines through when he nuzzles up for a cozy cuddle session.  He is very socialized and thrives in the company of his doggy peers. He has been around many dogs at the park and beach without issue. Therefore, it is not recommended that Burrito be an only dog as he will function exceptionally well with a doggy sibling who can match his high energy. Burrito enjoys rough play, being chased, and chasing bugs.  Burrito can walk 2-3 miles a day. He requires both patience and commitment, as he has an active mind that needs frequent stimulation. Once he's tuckered out, he's content to just chill for the rest of the day. He seeks an owner who can invest the time and effort to channel his energy productively. He can't be trusted in large off-leash areas yet as he is more concerned with other dogs and putting things in his mouth than listening to you, but this will change.. Burrito prefers to sleep in bed with you. He does have a prey drive so he cannot be in a house with cats or small critters.  Burrito has all the makings of a loving, loyal, and fun-loving companion. With the right blend of love, patience, and active engagement, his potential is limitless.  He is neutered, micro-chipped and up to date on all vaccinations.  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.  February 13, 2026, 7:04 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Shane is with us because his owner passed away. It took Shane a while to warm up to us as he was traumatized upon arrival. Now he enjoys being massaged and shows gratitude by wagging his tail. He’s not a big snuggle guy because of his medium length hair so he will need grooming. He has bonded with a chihuahua in the home so he capable of making dog friends. In fact, he does whatever his little chi pal does. It’s very cute. Shane is a tad overweight so we’re careful not to over feed him. He weighs in at a whopping 19 pounds. Shane would look and feel better at a reasonable weight of 12 to 15 pounds. He likes walks and is a walking pro at fiesta island (our local dog park). He even gets his paws wet in the bay. This summer I expect a full submerge. This little man has come a long way and seeks a person understands him and will allow him the time he needs to accumulate to a new environment. Shane will make a good walking partner and add loving waggs and warmth to your home. call for an appointment to meet Mr. Shane in person 858-442-6585    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.    October 25, 2024, 12:14 am

We set up meet & greet appointments, do a home visit or send them the address for some meet & greet locations, paperwork and suddenly they said they are not ready or spouse is not ready, etc. These fur kids have a very hard day the day of their appointment. Due to travelling we hold their food, so they won't get car sick. We bath them, some of them are schedule for grooming as you know it is stressful for them; then they have to travel with us picking up other rescued fur kids, and so on, it is a very stressful hard day for them for people to just cancel at last minute or not show up or do show up and just say they are not ready. Our time as well as your time is valuable. Please don't waste valuable time that is so precious for a rescued pet. Every single wasted time is a time that an animal will die because we didn't get to them on time to help them. In addition, of wasting gas and grooming fees which are paid by volunteers. Please take the time to put your shoes in the shoes of the volunteer and most of it to put your shoes on our rescued fur kids!! Please take a minute to tell yourself if you are ready to adopt and for this commitment. LIVE!! LOVE!! LAUGH!! ADOPT A RESCUED HOMELESS PET AND SAVE A LIFE!!

Story
Looking for a silly, outgoing, spunky and fun-loving Basset Hound and Boston Terrier mix to brighten your days? Then Heron may just be your guy! Heron originally came to us from a shelter in San Bernardino County, and he quickly made fast friends with everyone both two and four legged. His favorite pastimes at TBL include roaming the play yard with his buddies, playing fetch, going on weekend hikes with volunteers, and just being a ham for attention. You only need to meet him to know that this playful dude has a happy-go-lucky outlook on life and nothing will bring him down. Given his energy and tenacity, he would do best with an experienced owner that can keep him grounded and help set boundaries. Heron loves to give you kisses – whether your hands, arms, or face, he is not picky! He comes equipped with adorably squat legs, classic black and white coloring, constantly wagging tail, big inquisitive brown eyes, and happy smiling face. To those who know him well, and those he has established trust with, he is a very sweet, jolly, and obedient boy. Heron weighs around 30 pounds, a great size for most types of living situations. He is about 9 and a half years young (estimated DOB December 2011) but can still keep up with the best of them on long hikes and outdoor adventures. If Heron sounds like the perfect pup you have been looking for, come see if he is a match for you!If you'd like to meet Heron, please visit www.thebarkinglot.net/adoptTo initiate the adoption process for this dog, please complete our online application by clicking below.
