Our Philosophy
A New Chance Animal Rescue operates on a foster home model, with the strong belief that boarding and local shelter facilities are not replacements for experiencing home life that prepares a dog for successful adoption. It is in these homes that the dogs experience constant love and the normal activities of daily life, giving them the skills necessary to prosper. Our foster families get to know their foster dog, and that valuable information is detailed in the descriptions of our adoptable dogs. We work diligently with our applicants and get to know their needs and lifestyle, so we can properly match them to an adoptable dog. A New Chance Animal Rescue will not place a dog in a home that is not the right fit for them just to get them out of our care. It is because of this diligence and extensive support we offer post-adoption, that nearly all of our matches are for life. However, if for any reason an adoption does not work out, we always take our dogs back. We believe the commitment made to our dogs begins the moment they come into our care and extends throughout the rest of their life. We receive no government funding and exist entirely through the generosity of donations, both financial and in-kind, as well as the kind support of local businesses. Our Work
All across the nation dogs are abandoned on the streets, abused at home, or simply surrendered by people who can no longer care for them because of health, financial, or other reasons. Shelters do not have unlimited space and often routinely euthanize to make room for more dogs. A New Chance Animal Rescue is dedicated to helping as many of these very sweet and adoptable dogs as possible. We currently operate in nine states, including in our local area, where there are animals in need. A New Chance Animal Rescue believes that every dog deserves a new chance; we rescue dogs of all breeds, ages, sizes, medical statuses, and temperaments. Some of our dogs need extra medical, training, or behavioral support to properly prepare them for adoption. Whether it is working with a behaviorist, monthly medication, or care from a specialist, we provide our rescues with all of the care they may need. Since our inception, we have rescued and adopted out over 1,000 dogs.
