Story
Meet Crunch (AKA Crunch Wrap Supreme) Okay, so have you ever heard a better name for a dog. Crunch! What dog doesn’t enjoy a crunchie treat? It’s almost onomapotatoe for potatoe chips if you really think about it. Onomatopoeia is cool! What’s cooler than a white German Shepherd? A polar bear, maybe. But I mean cool in the wearing sunglasses and a leather jacket type of way, not burrrr type of way. I’m a 1 1/2 year old neutered male, currently pretty much fully grown at 65 pounds. I am potty and crate trained. I ignore cats. I really super enjoy other dogs. I have not been around kids, but I am similar to a kid in nature, I’m goofy, adventurous and sweet, so I could probably get used to kids with my medium energy level. Second Chance rescue quite literally gave me a second chance. I had parvo, which is a terrible stomach ouchie problem, as a small puppy. I am one of the lucky pups that fully recovered. Thank goodness for vaccinations, be sure to get your pups vaccinated. I do know the word sit. I am a people person and adore people really a lot. I’m an outdoorsman and would enjoy spending time hiking, swimming, running, you know an active family lifestyle. Here at the rescue, I wear many hats. Literally and figuratively. Here’s one of me in my red Sheriffs hat so I can say “howdy pawtner, how fast were you going” and then throw away the key or whatever Sheriffs do! But I’d rather throw balls! I enjoy all the toys, especially balls and not-balls which are actually called frisbees. When we’re not playing ball or doing adventure stuff, you can rub my head and tell me I’m the angel Crunch is a 1Y old White Shepherd mix! He is Neutered, vaccinated, Heartworm negative, microchipped and ready to be loved! He has also been to obedience training and will go home with 6 months of flea and Heartworm preventative, as well as three free private training sessions with his original trainer! Crunch has been looking for his family for over a year now. Please reach out to us if you are interested in meeting him!

Story
My name is Rocky and I am a tripod! When I was younger, I was hit by a car and lost one of my legs. But that’s ok! I am still such a happy boy. My favorite activities include sunbathing, playing with my toys, and eating! I also love when someone cuddles with me. I’m really smart and love games that challenge my mental capabilities! Rocky is a two year old Belgian Malinois who had a rough start in life. He had a front leg amputated and took some time getting acclimated. He has been through multiple surgeries, and physical therapy sessions. He has made significant progress and he has never given up. He falls, and gets right back up. His spirit has never been hurt, he’s such a happy energetic boy looking for someone who’s willing to work with him. Since he is limited physically, he needs mental stimulation through training exercises and enrichment puzzles. He would do great in an active family home. Ideally a family that is home most of the time due to Rocky having some separation anxiety. Rocky does not mind other dogs, but would prefer wither a no dog household, or a very laid back dog. Rocky is currently in an obedience training program getting ready for his new family. His trainer will also provide his adopters with two free private lessons to help him acclimate to your home. Rocky is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped! He stays up to date on flea and heartworm prevention.

[NOTE: We are a rescue NOT a shelter, meaning WE DO NOT HAVE A FACILITY THAT OPENS TO THE PUBLIC. An application MUST be completed, BEFORE a potential adopter will be introduced to one of our pets, in order to first determine that our basic adoption requirements are met, prior to introductions being made. We also utilize personal reference and vet checks (to ensure that any pets already in the potential adoptive home are current on vaccines, heart worm prevention and sterilized) in our adoption process, all of which is intended to ensure that the best match, between pet and people, is made. The adoption fee for Rose is $225

Story
She's a sweetheart but she can't seem to stop focusing on our cat. She's a lot to handle and would probably be better off with someone with some land she can play on. We thought walks and a nice backyard would be enough, it doesn't seem to be the case.
