"Last Chance Angels" - Our Hospice Program (created 2015)

When I started 2nd Chance Dog Rescue back in 2009, I knew there was a need to help the neglected, abandoned and fearful dogs. But I never would have imagined that 6 years later there would be a desperate need to save senior dogs and dogs with terminal illnesses, whose owners failed them at the time they needed them the most. Most of these dogs lived their entire lives with a family they thought would love them until the end - only to find themselves abandoned at the shelter to die. We believe that these dogs do not deserve to die alone in a frightening shelter environment, no matter what their situation is. We understand that there are some families who absolutely cannot afford to humanely euthanize their pets, but we have found that the majority are dumped as an inconvenience.

2nd Chance Dog Rescue is expanding our mission to help these seniors and hospice dogs that need a place to call home and a family that is willing to be by their side to the very end. We are their "Last Chance Angels."
