Story

We adopted Bruno at a very young age, 2-3 months old. He is currently 3 years old and his birthday is on January 26th. He's energetic, intelligent, loyal, & such a sweet dog, and I can't emphasize that enough. A great companion but he has attention and stimulation needs that we can no longer fulfill since having a baby with one more on the way. He's not a bad dog but he's definitely been acting out a little from the lack of attention, so we really want to find him a new owner and home with someone who can give him more play time and space. He will get curious out of boredom. He thrives on attention so if you can give it he will be a perfect match for you. He needs a lot of space to run around in too being that he's a cattle dog. I take him out to the tennis court to play fetch but he definitely needs more play than I can provide between work and taking care of other family needs. He's better with older kids. Doesn’t like to share the attention with babies and toddlers.

Story

Due to unexpected life changes, I need to rehome my 6-year-old Blue Heeler, Viggo, by September 30th, 2024. I love him dearly and consider him the perfect dog--while I know it's in his best interest to find him a new home, I am heartbroken to say goodbye! I'd love to find someone who wouldn't mind sending me the occasional picture/update around the holidays. He is a healthy, well-trained, high-energy dog who loves hiking, running, playdates with other dogs, and learning new tricks. While he's always up for an adventure, he's also incredibly affectionate and loving; a true velcro dog, he attaches closely with his human(s). He would thrive in a home where he can get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation, ideally with someone familiar with the breed's needs. He is excellent on and off leash and is extremely easy to train!

Story

CarsonNeutered Male DogGood with dogsNo children/children over 14 onlyHousetrainedCrate-trainedWeight 45.0About Carson: Meet Carson, a.k.a. our little teddy bear, a pint-sized cattle dog mix who is full ofpersonality! This sweet boy embodies the typical cattle dog personality – always ready to be in the mixof things and always making sure his humans are keeping his days filled with his favorite things: chewtoys, outside zoomie times, walkies, and of course dinner! Carson is full of energy when its time to play,but also loves a good snuggle (on his terms of course) when its time for TV and bed. True to cattle dogform, he is full of opinions on where he and his humans should be and needs reminding to keep mouthyplay under control. For that reason, we recommend households with older/no children.Training and Habits:Potty Training: Carson has been doing great with his potty training! He had a few accidents in hisfirst weeks in foster (mostly marking), but those have become few and far between as he’sgotten used to the swing of things. And he’s been accident free since his neuter!Crate: Toss a treat in the crate, and Carson will go in happily. He does not like to be forced intothe crate, and will give you a growl/look back. He sleeps quietly in his crate at night, but willbark for a couple minutes if you put him in during the day and he hears you still moving about.Leash: Carson’s getting the hang of things on a leash. He has an old hip injury (see health below),so we’ve been keeping walks on the shorter side and letting him choose the pace. He’s beenworking on loose leash walking – so far a lot of pulling with excitement at the start, but heresponds well to you stopping when you hit the end of the leash. On a leash, he shows interestin other dogs, but passes them well and has been non-reactive.Playtime: Like most cattle dogs, Carson has spurts of high energy! He redirects to toys well whenhe gets mouthy. So far, he’s been excellent at chasing balls but we’re still working on theretrieving. He also loves playing gentle tugs with us or playing hard with our cattle dog mix.Cuddles and Comfort: Carson loves being near his family! He does whine a bit when we/our dog leaves,but will settle after a few minutes. He is a constant companion, and loves curling up in your lap whenyou sit on the ground. He also will come snuggle on the couch with a big ole leap from all four paws atonce! He does have opinions on surprise snuggles though, and will let you know if you invade his spacewith a growl.Exercise Needs: Since Carson has an old hip injury, we try to keep his higher impact activities self-directed. He gets his zoomies out in our backyard, and plays hard with our pup. We try to keep his walksto 1 mile or less a few times per week, although he may be able to build on this. We keep his mind busywith Kongs/lick mats and we’re working on teaching him to take treats gently since we think this smartguy would take pretty well to trick training!Ideal Home: Carson’s ideal home is somewhere where he can be with his people and safely get hiszoomies out! Since we worry that daily long walks may be hard on his hip, he’d probably do best in ahome where he has a fenced yard or daily access to an enclosed outdoor space. He gets along well withour spayed female dog, but we also think he’d be fine with his humans all to himself! Adults only or ahome with respectful, older children is best since he is mouthy with play and has opinions about hisbodily autonomy.Health: Carson is neutered, microchipped, dewormed and up-to-date on his shots. He is heartwormpositive and going through treatment. He also has a broken pelvis that healed on its own slightly out ofplace. This does cause him some pain that is well managed with a low-cost pain med regime. SecondChance is happy to provide your vet with his x-rays and discuss this treatment plan.***Please Note: All the available dogs listed on our website are getting spoiled in private foster homes.

Story

Volunteer notes, 6/26/24:Baxter is high energy and loves to run. He will come when called. Affectionate.Volunteer notes, 5/12/24:Loved chasing then bringing back the tennis ball. Enjoyed a longer walk, curious to sights and sounds, but not pulling. Startled my movement in the woods, but recovered, no pulling to chase anything. Enjoyed being petted, sitting in the grass togetherVolunteer notes, 5/7/24:Today we learned that Baxter loves to chase balls, but his idea of playing fetch is to touch the ball with his nose and run back. He is sweet, friendly, goofy, and hilarious. He loves treats!Volunteer notes, 5/2/24:Baxter is a bouncy, goofy little love bug who is absolutely delightful to play with in the yard. He loves to show off his zoomies and ball fetching skills, and will demonstrate his knowledge of commands in exchange for treats. You cannot watch this dog play without laughing; he is full of infectious joy!
