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! Asters momma lived with her daughter and they were evicted.  Momma didn't have anywhere to go and her sister said she could come stay with them but Aster was not allowed :(  How heartbreaking.  Sweetest pup ever and had been with her momma since she was 8 weeks old.  No worries we at 2nd Chance LOVE our seniors so Aster has become a part of our family and although she came with a urinary tract infection she is now doing well and happy to be alive :)  Welcome to the family sweet lady!  You are LOVEDVisit 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!

Peanut is almost 4 years old and has gone thru some training. She absolutely loves people. She is great with older children and babies. Loves to be around humans and will give you lots of kisses. Loves her belly rubbed and prefers to sit on furniture but has been trained to stay off. Knows sit, stay, down (laying) and off (person or furniture). Needs someone with the time to play with her and give her lots of love. Would love a fenced in yard to run and play. Will come with bed and unopen bag of food.

Bailey is 6 months old, almost 7 months. Her birthday is July 15, 2025. She is up to date on all of her shots (will provide records) Myself and my son are very allergic to her, so she needs a home where her people can give her the love she deserves. She's a good girl, potty trained, and very loving. She does get anxious when left alone for long.
