Additional adoption info
Once you have found a furry baby that you are interested in, we ask that you fill out one of our adoption applications. Once the application has been completed it will be looked over by two people within our organization, one being a board member. On the application you are asked to list your vet and two references. Those people will be contacted and asked a few questions. Once the application has been approved by two people the adoption process can continue. If the person is not filling out the application in person they are asked to make an appointment to come in and see how they interact with the animal. If they have a dog they are asked to bring that dog so we can help with proper introductions. **All Animals are spayed/Neutered, up to date on shots and microchipped.

2nd Chance Animal Rescue is about giving animals a second chance at finding their forever homes. We promote spaying and neutering of all animals, that is why each one of our animals are up to date on shots and spayed/neutered before they are available for adoption. We are a not-for-profit animal rescue and we are supported by donations from the community. Our team continues to feverishly fight animal cruelty, homelessness, and sickness in Wayne County. We are Wayne County's only no kill rescue without any paid staff. All money raised goes towards the care of the animals.
2nd Chance Animal Rescue is operated by The Board.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
