Story
Meet Redd, a spirited little guy who’s ready to find his forever home! At 14 years young, Redd was surrendered by his former family but was fortunate enough to be welcomed into a loving foster home with COALDR just an hour later. This delightful pup has more spunk and energy than many dogs half his age! Each morning, he bounds outside with enthusiasm, eager to explore his yard and greet his doggy friends. Weighing in at just 11 pounds, Redd is a charming Poodle/Maltese mix and is currently fostered in Smithfield, VA. Redd has a cataract in one eye and is likely blind in that eye. His other eye has age-related vision loss, but he can see shadows and navigates his environment quite well. Redd is house-trained but prefers to use pads overnight. He’s had a thorough medical check-up and is in excellent health. This lovable boy gets along great with everyone, so a home with older, respectful children would be ideal. Because of his limited sight, he may not be comfortable around very young kids. Redd loves mealtime and isn’t shy about expressing his impatience if he has to wait. Aside from that, he’s quite a calm pup who would do well in an apartment setting. Redd enjoys leisurely walks and loves spending time outside, exploring his yard. He’s great with other dogs and adores every person he meets. If you’re ready to give this fun-loving little fellow a cozy retirement home, please complete an application to adopt him!

Story
Rocky is an adorable, silly and sweet adult pup. We are unsure of his exact age, but vet seems to believe he is about 8 years old and he weighs about 12 pounds. He gets along great with other small dogs. He would do best with an active family with no young children. We are unsure about larger dogs or cats. Rocky is 100% potty trained, loves to take walks in the neighborhood and going for rides in the car. Toys and balls are his favorite, but he can get a little obsessed and will guard them if you try to take them from him. He also loves to chew up sticks in the yard...he'll even try to bring them into the house. LOL. He loves to sleep in bed with his people and gets so excited at bedtime and in the morning that he rolls around kicking wildly. He just loves life -he is one happy little boy! Rocky would do best in a home with a fenced in yard and where his family is home more often than not. He gets upset to be left alone and will bark when you leave him. He will also require regular grooming and visits to the groomer, but he absolutely loves being brushed and spins in circles when he sees the brush come out. Rocky is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped & on preventative. He is located in Greenville, South Carolina If Rocky sounds like you're kind of cool little dude, complete your application today at www.coaldr.org

Story
*Due to state laws regarding out of state adoptions, we cannot adopt to families in Massachusetts or Rhode Island.* Mr. Peabody is a 9 month old mixed breed pup. He's a small guy weighing around 10 pounds. He would be a great addition to any family. Listed breed is an educated guess made by our veterinarian and is NOT a guarantee - this also means we have no way of knowing what a puppy's adult size will be. This dog is currently being fostered in Mississippi and will be transported via Barton's Barkers transport services upon adoption. Their adoption fee is $500 and includes spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations, a nose to tail vet check, microchip and transport costs. Second Chances lists dogs as being available in White River Junction, VT because we transport our dogs to the area every 3rd week after they have been adopted. All of our local shelters have a high euthanasia rate due to overpopulation so we created our rescue group to primarily adopt to the northern states to help keep as many dogs as we can from entering our kill shelters.   ##2183724##
