Foster or Forever home needed for Pickles!

Pickles was adopted out 6 years ago, to his mom Grace, who after adopting Pickles became a wonderful volunteer and foster for us. Grace sadly and unexpectedly passed away last month, and now Pickles is looking for someone to give him the same love she did.

Pickles is around 7-8 years old. He is a long haired Chihuahua mix, or just a super mutt, where not quite sure. He is around 16 lbs or pure love.

Pickles is skilled in the art of french kissing and has not met a face that he doesn't want to lick. He is great with all ages and currently lives with a 1 year old who he adores. He also doesn't mind sharing his home with other dogs, or cats. He is basically a ball of sunshine.

He is still active, and loves to go for walks, but is fine lounging around with you too.

Pickles has been going through a lot of transitions so right now he is using a belly band when in the house to prevent marking, however we believe once he finds some consistency, he will be able to go command again. In the mean time we will provide a stack of belly bands both reusable and disposable.

Pickles is fully vaccinated, neutered, microchipped and just had a full dental cleaning in March.

Do you have space in your heart for Pickles? Message us for more details!

**UPDATE, Harry has been adopted by his moms friend, best case scenario for our awesome guy!**

This sweet guy is named Harry and he is in need of a foster OR adopter.

Harry is an 8 year old Terrier mix, he is great with other dogs, good with cats, and loves kids as well.

Harry was one of our wonderful adopters/volunteers dogs, and last month she passed away unexpectedly. Grace was an amazing woman who took amazing care of her babies, and also helped with community cats, and now Harry needs someone who can treat him just as good as his mom did.

He is neutered, up to date on shots, had a recent dental cleaning, and has been given a clean bill of health.

Rescues, Fosters or Adopters Needed

URGENT: 5 dogs need immediate placement — Las Vegas, NV
We lost one of our beloved fosters suddenly this week. She leaves behind five dogs who need homes or temporary fosters right now.
Amy & Toby — 13-year-old Papillons, bonded pair. They must go together. Sweet, gentle, and have only known love their whole lives. (Photos 1 & 2)
Pickles — 5-6 years old, long-haired mixed breed, about 12 lbs. Fluffy, mild-mannered, and an absolute sweetheart. (Photo 3)
Harry — Around 8 years old, black Terrier mix. (Photo 4)
Festus — 13-ish year old Chihuahua mix, senior boy who may need a hospice foster. We will fully sponsor his medical care for the rest of his life. All you need a safe home. He is very set in his ways and prefers to spend his days outside or lounging and not being messed with too much, he likes other dogs and low energy environments . (Photo 5)
All five are good with other dogs, and good with kids. They are loving animals who are scared and grieving right now. They deserve soft landings.
We need rescue, fosters or adopters immediately. If you can take one — or know someone who can — please reach out today.

🔸 So Much Variety, So Many Amazing Dogs 🔸
They all came from somewhere. They were once fed and cared for, and have now been discarded and forgotten.😔💔 So very heartbreaking is the situation seen at the local shelters every day.

Below are Featured just a 25 of the hundreds of Amazing & Wonderful Shelter Dogs currently available for adoption at The Animal Foundation

Big-small, young-old, different colors, different breeds, all wonderful personalities. The biggest misconception about shelters and rescues is that "they offer no variety". As you can see below, that statement is simply untrue. Unfortunately, no animal is immune from ending up in the system. All different: breeds, ages, shapes, sizes, and colors come through their doors. All are amazing and unique, in their own way. And each and everyone one of them, wish for a family to call their own.

So Please 🥺🙏🐾 "Adopt, Don't Shop."
You can Save a Life Today. 💝

We received the sad news that at the beginning of the year our sweet Alumni, Jack passed away.
Jack was adopted by his amazing family in 2015, at an adoption event we had at St. Francis of Assisi's fall festival. Julie and her daughter Lilli came to volunteer, and had no intention on adopting. Jack was still a shy dog at the time (see top picture). The event was a lot on him and Julie and Lilli spent a lot of time walking him away from the crowds, and making sure he felt comfortable. So of course by the end of the event they were inseparable.
Jack spent the next 11 years being loved and pampered, and Julie, Lilli and Luciano because some of the best supporters to Second Chance, coming to all of our events and supporting every thing we do.
We don't know much about Jack before he came to us, but we know that he lived the majority of his life knowing what true love is, and you can tell by his picture that after being adopted he transformed into a smiling, cuddly, and confident guy. We wish that every dog could have a family like the one Jack did. So we will continue rescuing in hopes that one day they do.
Until then please send your love and condolences to Jack's family.

Donner and Dasher are an adorable bonded pair of chihuahua mixes who are looking for a loving home together. They were adopted as puppies seven years ago and recently lost their home through no fault of their own. This change has been confusing for them, but they remain the same sweet, affectionate, well-adjusted boys they’ve always been.

These two are best friends and truly rely on each other for comfort and companionship, so they must be adopted together.

About Donner & Dasher
Age: 7 years
Breed: Chihuahua mixes
Bonded Pair: Yes – must be adopted together
Good with: Other dogs and kids
Cats: Unknown
Health:
Fully up to date on vaccinations
Microchipped
Both recently had professional dental cleanings

Personality & Temperament
Donner and Dasher are great dogs – friendly, affectionate, and easy to love. They enjoy being with their people, lounging together, and soaking up attention. They are well-socialized, comfortable around other dogs, and have done well with children. They are the kind of dogs who settle easily into home life and just want to be part of the family.

Why They’re Special
It’s rare to find such a well-matched bonded pair with such a solid background. They’ve spent their entire lives together and are deeply connected. Watching them interact is truly heartwarming – they play together, nap together, and look to each other for reassurance. Keeping them together is essential for their emotional well-being.

What They’re Looking For
Donner and Dasher would thrive in a home that:
Wants two loving companions instead of one
Values the comfort and stability of an already bonded pair
Is ready to give them the security they deserve for the rest of their lives
These boys have already proven they can be wonderful family dogs. They just need someone to give them another chance.

If you’re looking for double the love, double the loyalty, and double the cuteness, Donner and Dasher are ready to steal your heart.
