Our computer is down please call with any questions or interests in adopting one of our Second Hand Pets.
Second Hand Pets is a small rescue run out of our home. We place animals left in our care in new and loving homes. These are the pets that others feel compelled to toss out like yesterdays trash. We like to refer to them as Second Hand Pets.
We currently have no foster homes only ours and don't have a facility. Each animal that comes to us is loved and nurtured until it finds it's special place in it's new families heart and home.
Since our county(Boone County in Indiana) has no shelter we help out any animal in need to avoid it being euthanized or dumped on the back country roads.
We rely on you the public for funding so please if you can find it in your heart to make a donation we would appreciate it.
Second Hand Pets does not make money on the pets we adopt out. Adoption donations are used to help the next Second Hand Pet that comes through our door and any supplies, food, vetting, etc.that they will need.

Additional adoption info
We will try to spay/neuter when able and get each pet a visit to the vet along with any necessary shots. If we are unable to get the pets spayed and neutered we will require proof after one month or at 6 mos of age that they were spayed/neutered. After proof the pet has been spayed/neutered $25 of the adoption fee will be reimbursed to the adopter.
Our adoption fees will range from $125-$200 depending on the age and what we have had to do medically for the Second Hand Pet. Each pet will have their adoption fee listed on their bio page.
Once approved for adoption there is a $75 holding fee which is non-refundable.
We require each potential adopter to fill out an adoption application from which we can verify vet references and personal references listed and our application contains some important information we gather to decide if this specific home is going to meet with the adoption criteria of the animal they are interested in. A home visit is done once all references have been checked.
We do require an adoption contract to be signed by each adopter.
