Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. All of our dogs and cats are in foster homes and we have no paid staff.  If you have questions concerning a specific animal,  PLEASE fill out an application and the foster parent will be in touch.  We will not arrange any home visits with any of our dogs and cats until your application is processed.  Please understand our foster parents are precious to our 2nd Chance family; without them we cannot function, so we do our best to not burden them with multiple appointments.  Our foster parents will choose their top 3 applications and arrange home visits with these applicants.  The adopter will be chosen at that time.  The process can take anywhere from a week to a month.  We want to make sure our little furry ones are placed in their "forever home" and never have to go through a rehoming again!   Update:  Carly is FABULOUS!  She loves to be outside in the fenced yard watching the squirrels and birds but she also enjoys vegging on the couch with you.  She thinks she should ALWAYS sleep in bed so if you need a warm snuggle buddy its Carly. Because she has rodesian ridgeback in her and LOVES outside we are requiring a fenced yard Absolute DOLL BABY!  She wasn't in very good shape when we found her and if we could find the owner we would make sure they were prosecuted!!  We have been in touch with the owner who was listed on the micro chip and she doesn't want Carly so we are going to find her a wonderful FOREVER home this time because she totally deserves it!!!  She was in such rough shape when we got her as you will see from the photo's but she is doing much better, has been vetted and given meds and good food and a warm bed and home to recoup in.  We love you Carly! MUST have a physically 6 foot fenced yard ! Update:  Carly LOVES to sleep in bed with you :)  She will curl up in a ball at the end of the bed and be happy as a bug in a rug :) 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!

Story
Aspen has had a rough go of things; he was a stray for a long time before learning to live with a family. However, he hasn't given up hope. He has become the most well behaved, affectionate dog I've ever owned. He has learned to play with his toys by himself and is comfortable with anyone in almost any situation. All he needs is affection and companionship. Unfortunately, he does not do well left alone. My two person household has sadly become one and since I work 6-7 days a week, I can no longer make sure that he isn't left alone. Aspen would make an excellent companion for someone who is home often or has multiple members in their household. Please note that Aspen's new family will get his crate, metal dog bowls, 50 pound bag of food, toys, and leash upon adoption. You can text me at any time for more info.
