Story
Sookie is a female Jack Russel/Blue Heeler mix breed. She was born in July in 2023. We bought her as a puppy and she has lived with us since Sept of 2023. Her shots are up to date and she is not spayed. We have five children and no other animals in the house. Sookie is good with kids. We added a child to our family since getting Sookie and she was very good with that transition. She is a very loyal dog and good to our family. However, our house is very busy with company. Sookie is reactive to visitors and other animals. We believe our house is too busy for her and it stresses her out.

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!
