Thinking of adding a new family member?

Our adoption process is designed to place our animals with loving homes ensuring you and your new pet are a good fit!

​

Step 1

Complete an Adoption Application Form for and follow the directions on the form to submit it to Second Chance Animal Rescue.

​

Step 2

You will be contacted by an Adoption Coordinator who will discuss your application and conduct an initial screening.

​

Step 3

Your Adoption Coordinator will conduct any required checks, like setting up a home visit, where a knowledgeable volunteer will meet with all residents to identify any risks or items to monitor when your new pet comes home, conduct a landlord check (if you rent), and checking with your current vet to ensure your pets are up to date on their medical needs (if you are a current pet owner).

​

Step 4

If everything checks out, you will either be approved or denied to adopt the animal you are interested in.  You can view a list of available pets and then work with your Adoption Coordinator to set up a meeting at a convenient time. If we don’t have the breed or size you are looking for, we can work with our shelter partners to find one.  If you are approved and adopt a dog from Second Chance Animal Rescue, you will be asked to sign an adoption contract transferring ownership to you.

​

It is our responsibility and mission to find the best possible home and to meet the individual needs of each rescue.
