Reviews
"Choosing my adoption through Second Chance Dog Rescue was the best decision we’ve ever made. The team was incredibly thoughtful, supportive, and truly cared about finding the right match—not just placing a dog quickly. From the first message to post-adoption check-ins, they made us feel like part of a family. Our pup came to us healthy, happy, and so well-adjusted thanks to their amazing foster and rehab program. You can tell this rescue is doing it for the right reasons—heart, compassion, and real impact."
