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! Callie and Molly are the sweetest girls ever!! Molly LOVES to play and run around and both love to soak up attention. Molly is 7 and Callie is 4 :) They both get along with other dogs and dose not seem to mind cats. They are definitely going to need a fenced yard so they can get all there zoomies out and play together safely :) They are both super affectionate and will both gladly jump up on the couch getting cuddles :) Molly is definitely not a "couch potato" and loves the outside and  is super active so a family that goes on walks and is active would be ideal for this pair :)  Requirements:  Fenced yard.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!

Archie is a fun-loving, attention-seeking guy who truly shines when he’s with his people. His favorite thing in the world is a good game of fetch—if you’ve got a ball, you’ve got his full attention. While he’s not overly interested in playing with other dogs, he does enjoy having a canine companion nearby for comfort when his humans are away. Because of his personality, Archie will need a home with a fenced-in yard and another dog to keep him company. If you’re hoping for a playmate for your dog, he may not be the right fit—but if you’re looking for a companion to help your dog feel less alone and have a buddy around, Archie may be the perfect match. :) REQUIREMENTS: 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.

Story
Ritz is just over two years old, and she’s been such a bright part of our lives. We love having her, but we have a second child on the way and cannot give her the space and time she deserves. She spends a lot of time inside, but absolutely loves the outdoors as well. She is house trained. She has a bell hanging on the door that she rings when she needs to go out.We have a child who is one year-old and they love playing with each other. Needless to say Ritz does amazing with kids. It breaks our hearts to rehome her but with the limited time and space we have, we feel like it is the right thing to do.

Story
🐾 BAD HAIRCUT, DON’T CARE — VICTOR IS STILL A TOTAL HEARTTHROB 💙✂️ 🐾 Okay, okay… Victor knows his current haircut is not exactly his best look, but this sweet Shih Tzu mix promises it’s only temporary. Underneath that “I lost a fight with the groomer” style is one seriously adorable little gentleman just waiting for his glow-up. ✨ Victor sadly landed in the shelter when his previous owner could no longer care for him, but he hasn’t let that dim his sunny spirit one bit. This boy is super friendly, crate trained, and absolutely LOVES people. His favorite things? Getting pets, soaking up attention, and making new friends everywhere he goes. He’s the kind of pup who will happily trade kisses for cuddles and would love nothing more than a cozy home where he can be spoiled the way he deserves. Honestly, the “before” haircut just makes his future makeover reveal even more exciting. And trust us—when that fluffy coat grows back, Victor is going to be serving serious Shih Tzu superstar energy. 🌟 Victor is ready to start his next chapter with a family who sees past the haircut and straight into his sweet little soul. 💙 Come meet Victor and fall in love with the cutest bad haircut at Ophrescue.org.
