Story
Hello, Brownie has been with me for almost 12 years now. He’s been with me through high school, college, marriage and now motherhood. It’s a lot harder to take care of him now. He is an inside dog that likes to sit close or on you. He’s great with my baby and younger dog ( 5 year old 56lbs mix) he just likes to keep out of the way and watch everything. He isn’t a fan of anyone messing with his food or eye boogers bur he will let the groomer clean them. The mass on his chest is not cancerous we’ve had it tested and it’s not painful. Brownie would need a loving slow paced home with someone that his home most of the day. He enjoys sunbathing and cuddling up. He was born in Illinois as I was and could care less for the winters . He will keep whatever shirt and or sweater you dress him in lol. He’s a good boy he’s particular but very sweet and protective.

Story
Meet Brownie! 11-year-old Brownie has spent his entire life as a beloved companion. He was by his mom's side as she relocated many times with the military. Sadly, a year ago, she was diagnosed with a debilitating illness and recently reached the heartbreaking decision that she could no longer take care of Brownie. On April 23rd, he became a Frosted Face. Brownie is a sweet boy who enjoys being held and going for walks. (Be sure to watch the video to see his adorable wiggle butt when he walks!) Brownie gets along well with other dogs. He weighs 13 lbs. Brownie is currently on a two-week Frosted Fling where he'll enjoy lots of love and attention in a home setting while we learn more about him. Stay tuned for an update! To meet adorable Brownie, please email placement@frostedfacesfoundation.org

These pups are in San Diego, California too!

Story
Age: 9 years old Gender: Male Breed: Shih Tzu mix Weight: 26 lbs Personality: Yuki is wary of strangers but will warm up to people with a bit of chicken and patience on the human's side. Yuki is a mellow guy who loves to nap next to you and lounge in the sun. Yuki is content to sleep the day away near his person but is also up for playing with stuffed animals and fetching! Yuki does well on leash but is quick to warn you that strangers are nearby. He has some barrier frustration, but is generally very easy going once he has warmed up to you. He loves going for car rides and is a great passenger, although drive thru cashiers may be startled at his sudden alerting. Yuki does well with other dogs. He is polite enough to leave old grumpy dogs alone but will play with young energetic pups. He does not resource guard his person, but does show some food guarding tendencies. It would be safest to feed separately. Needs a home with no children or older children who will treat him with respect and give him space as needed. If you have some chicken and just two days of patience, you will be rewarded with so much love. Yuki is an easy dog, he is crate trained, potty trained, and walks well on leash. He is generally a gentle, mellow guy with great house manners. He has a case of stranger danger, but can be redirected when he is reacting. Yuki loves hanging out with his human, but does well when left alone. He will sleep until you return and greet you wholeheartedly. Yuki takes a little bit to warm up to his person, but once you earn his trust, you will find that no one else will look at you with as much love in their eyes as Yuki.  Education: Good with bathroom and leash training Favorite Activities: Napping, cuddling, chewing tags and eyeballs off stuffed animals, fetch, sun bathing. He's also extremely dog friendly Looking for: A sweet person or family who can give him space, be patient with him and respect/ advocate for his boundaries while he learns to trust humans. Ideally older and respectful kids are ok, and so are dogs. He is currently taking Prozac (~$5-10 for a month's supply, depending on market value and where purchased) to successfully help manage his anxiety around new people.  Adoption Fee: $ 350 ##1592807##

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 Gizmo!  Gizmo is a 4 year old, 12 pound Shih Tzu.  He is a sweet, affectionate pup with a big personality and an even bigger heart. He’s the perfect balance of playful and laid-back, always ready for playing, but just as happy to relax and cuddle. Gizmo is incredibly friendly and loves meeting other dogs, big or small. His tail starts wagging the moment he sees a new furry friend, and he’s always eager to say hello and make a new playmate. Gizmo will do well with other dogs in the home as long as they are energetic and ready to play. This adorable boy is both potty trained and crate trained. He sleeps peacefully in his crate at night and even enjoys curling up in it for naps during the day while his foster Mom works. Gizmo is ready to bring joy, love, and lots of tail wags to his forever home! We suspect that Gizmo has food allergies so he will need to be on a high quality diet.  He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and is microchipped.  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.  May 2, 2025, 1:29 pm
