Second Chance Rescue is headquartered in Orange Lake, Florida. We cover a rural area in the Gainesville/Ocala region with a network of volunteers and foster homes. While many of our rescued dogs come from animal shelters, we also get a number of them through "shelter diversion" contacts - where we take in a dog or litter that is likely to end up there without our help. (We do not have a public facility in Orange Lake - but that zip code is fairly central to our network of foster homes.)

Additional adoption info
Each adoption has an application process, home visit, contract, and adoption donation. The process almost always starts with a brief telephone conversation to get things started! :-) Call today and we'll do our best to match you with a great forever friend!
