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. // // Introducing Stripes!  Stripes is a one year old, 35 pound mix which we believe to be pug and whippet.  Cool, calm, and collected, little Stripes is a silly girl with a heart of gold. Never missing an opportunity to cuddle up in bed, the couch, or nestle up to her humans and lay her head on your shoulder, she lives for the love.  Cat-like in demeanor, she would rather enjoy a good indoor play with a squeak toy or a bone as opposed to going on long walks. In fact, her perfect afternoon is a short 15 minute jaunt around the neighborhood following by a little scrimmage with a similarly sized companion and perhaps some quick zoomies through a wet, grassy field. She’s great at keeping herself occupied with toys, her harness, or a remote if you aren't paying attention. A little shy around large dogs, she warms up quickly when she realizes they are not a threat. She’s currently working on her cat manners but is showing lots of promise and no longer chases them. She is spayed and up to date on vaccinations.  Her 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.

Meet Pirulin! This Whippet and Hound mix is expected to be medium-sized when fully grown&#194&#151but don't let that fool you, he's got a big personality and an even bigger heart. Pirulin is a bit of a shy guy at first but warms up, especially if there are treats and another dog for him to make friends with. Once he's comfortable, he is a bundle of energy who lives for playtime&#194&#151whether it's chasing toys, romping with his foster dog siblings, or zooming around the yard, he's always ready for fun. He's also incredibly sweet and affectionate with his known people, always happy to snuggle up after a good play session. Pirulin is ok with kids he's met out and about but doesn't live with any kids right now and he's not a go-to-everywhere kind of guy but he's made a lot of progress in his foster home with socialization and training. He is great with other dogs and would do well in a home a dog sibling to play and learn from. He is eager to please and has mastered house training and sleeping in his crate. Pirulin is a joyful companion who will bring nonstop smiles to his future forever family! Pirulin is looking for a family that understands the time, patience, and energy needed to raise a young pup. We require all puppy adopters to provide training that includes: house training, basic training, leash training, and socialization. Additionally, this cutie is going to need proper exercise, mental stimulation, and your attention and love to grow up to be the best companion. We do not allow our dogs or puppies to sleep or live outside; they must be incorporated into your family and be made a priority in your life. In return, you will have the most loving and loyal family member you could ask for. If you think you are ready to add to your family by adopting Pirulin, then fill out an adoption questionnaire on our website today! We recommend completing the questionnaire and connecting with an adoption coach before looking for a dog or puppy you'd like to adopt.

Story
Luther is a precious little boy who was found in the desert after being hit by a car. We urgently got him to one of our veterinary partners to get him the medical care he needed and now he is recovering in a foster home. Luther is only about 1 year old and with his longer, thin legs and short coat, we believe he is a Whippet and Terrier mix. Much like a Whippet, he is a quieter boy with a gentle personality. He is housetrained, learning how to walk on leash, and loves to sit in your lap. He would love a patient family who will continue to help him gain confidence in the big world. He is good with other dogs but may do best with more similar sized, calmer dog buddies. If you think you're ready to add to your family by adopting Luther, then fill out an adoption questionnaire on our website today! We recommend completing the questionnaire and connecting with an adoption coach before looking for a dog or puppy you'd like to adopt.
