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!UPDATE 3/5/2024:  Buddy is having some issues being 'stiff' but as long as you don't have stairs he does great.  He does guard his toys but if you do a trade with a snack he will give them up :)  Looking for a GS experienced ownerUPDATE:  Buddy is looking fantastic!!  He is a little 'stiff' in his old age but I told him its OK so am I!  He LOVES attention, he likes his toys and he is great with the dogs although I think he would be just as happy as an only dog he does fine with all the dogs here at the ranch :)I can only imagine how Buddy must have felt...  Like no one cared, defeated, ready to give up, a banquet for fleas and tics :(  It took us quite a while to get him back to health and still he deals with ear infections from repeated ones not being treated :(  No worries now big man you are loved and valued!Buddy you have your 2nd Chance and we are going to give you an amazing life!!REQUIRES 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!October 14, 2024, 6:08 pm

Story
This is Roxy she is 4 years old. We rescued her. She’s a very sweet dog. She comes with a lot of anxiety and a lot of energy. We are not sure what she went through as a puppy. I hate to be even making this page right now. She deserves more and me and my boyfriend are a young couple. Unfortunately, with the market, we cannot afford a house and she deserves a yard somewhere where she can run around and get her energy out. We take her for lots of walks and she struggles to use the bathroom outside while being hooked to a leash. She does use the bathroom if she’s unleashed. Unfortunately, we live in an apartment where we can’t have her off leash. . We were just trying to rescue a dog And help her not realizing that her breed comes with a lot of energy.That’s the border collie and the German Shepherd. We love her and she’s a good dog, but she needs a family that can offer her a little bit more that we can. She is great with kids and other animals as well.

Story
Max is 4 years old, only needs his yearly rabies, & could also use a good grooming. He doesn’t like his ears or nails to be handled & he’s too big to fight. He was a humane custody intake at the Philly SPCA which is where I adopted him. He has both physical & emotional scars. He’s a bit hand-shy & seems to like women more than men, but will warm up to men slowly. He has a BIG bark & it’s initially very scary but only barks until he has a chance to sniff you & then he’s done. He’s 120 lbs of good boy. He needs someone experienced with big dogs. Solid on basic manners. He does NOT like other dogs. This is not negotiable. He was fighting other dogs in his last home. He likes my cat just fine. He’s house trained. I have a progressive neuromuscular disease & my muscle function has declined recently + a double whammy of osteopenia. I’ve fallen 2x in the last few weeks taking Max out. He needs someone who’ll give this GOOD BOY the life he deserves. I’ll send all food/toys/gear/crate-rare used

Story
Meet Charlie: Charlie is about a 1 year old (as of February 2025) German Shepherd mix that weighs 75 pounds. Charlie has a great temperament and was in a high kill shelter when we were able to pull him into a foster home. Charlie is currently being fostered in the Mount Joy, PA area and would love to meet his forever family. Charlie gets along well with dogs, people and children. Charlie likes to run and play and will need a home with a fenced in yard. Charlie is house trained and leash trained. Charlie is up to date on his shots and is neutered. Charlie tested positive for heart worms and has started treatments already so he is well on his way to being good as new! If you are interested in giving this handsome boy a great home, please go to Charlie’s Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application. CURRENT LOCATION: Foster Home in Mount Joy, PA 17022 Kennel License #17584 ##2310637##
