Second Chance Dog Rescue

Dog rescue in Fredericksburg, VA

Second Chance Dog Rescue's mission is to give dogs that have found themselves homeless a second chance at finding a loving forever home. The founders take care of everything involved in the rescue of dogs including but not limited to: the initial intake of the dog, grooming, feeding, training, vet visits, home checks and all the administrative functions. Second Chance Dog Rescue prefers to take dogs that are at the local shelters and have a greater chance of being euthanized.
