Second Chance Pet Adoptions

✨ Meet Kona, aka Kona Coffee for those who like a formal touch! This black Lab mix with dreamy brown eyes is the ultimate outdoor adventurer. She’s all about off-leash runs through the forest and is perfectly leash-trained with a strong recall once you’ve earned her trust.

Kona’s ideal family loves camping trips and beach days just as much as she does! But don’t be fooled—this girl enjoys a good spa day too. A hot bath, sudsy soaps, and being wrapped in a warm towel are her idea of bliss, and you’ll know she’s happy when she struts away with a little sway in her step!

As a former military pup, Kona doubles as your home security system with a perfect alarm bark that stops once you’ve checked out the situation. She’s house-trained and would love a yard to roam in.

Kona feels safest in her crate or your arms and has a soft spot for blankets and cozy places to nap. She’s got a slight preference for the ladies but is learning to warm up to everyone in her foster home—especially if treats are involved! Whether it's a long walk or a fun game of fetch, Kona’s ready to join your family and make memories. 🐾

Woof woof, dear friends!
Exciting news from the construction zone and Coty the adoptable dog contractor! 🏗️ Our new dog space is coming together faster than a cat chasing a laser pointer! We're thrilled to share that the drywall has been delivered and installed. 🎉

Every new wall means we're one step closer to providing myself, and my dog friends, with the paw-some temporary home we deserve. 🏠 From cozy staff offices to open spaces for potential family meet and greets, our new space will be a true doggie paradise.

We couldn't have done it without your support and patience. As we watch our dreams take shape, we can't help but imagine the joyful barks and happy tail wags that will soon fill these walls.

Hey there, fur-tastic friends! I'm Care Bear, and I’m on a quest to find my forever home! 🎉 At almost a year old, I've had quite the adventure—originally adopted as a tiny kitten, I ended up back at Second Chance through no fault of my own. 😿

I may be a bit shy at first (who isn’t?), but once I warm up, you’ll hear my super loud purr that’s guaranteed to melt your heart! 💖 I’m looking for a quiet home with no little ones (12+ only, please!), where I can feel safe and loved.

I thrive with feline friends, so I’m hoping to find a purrfect buddy to play with! 🐱💕

My favorite toy? Catnip mice, of course! 🎾 If you're looking for a gentle companion who just needs a little time and TLC, I’m your guy!

Come meet me, and let’s make some memories together! I promise, I’m worth it! ✨

Love,
Care Bear 💕

Hi pals,

Coty here, the resident dog contractor. You may be wondering what my furiends and I have been up to over in the new space. Things are moving along quickly, and me and my dawgs are excited to move into our new home soon!

A good boy like me can't be hot, so we installed some fantastic air conditioners to keep us all cool. We also installed drains in the doggie rooms for my friends who don't know to use the bathroom outside yet (and so the humans can clean up our rooms easier).

We are so excited to continue to share the news with our supporters. What do y'all think, will this new space be fit for the goodest boy like me?

Woofs and tail wags,
Coty

Tautog is the definition of a cuddlebug – that's all he wants! This extremely sweet boy is on the lookout for his forever home and trust us, he's a catch.

💖 Tautog's Purr-sonality:

Loves other calm cats
Adores fluffy beds and blankets to snuggle in
Super mellow and easygoing
Extremely sweet and affectionate
Shy in new places, so would do best in a home with older kids
Tautog spent the first half of his life outside and is now ready to enjoy the good life indoors with a loving family. Are you ready to give Tautog the cozy forever home he deserves?

📩 Send us a message if you're interested in adopting this cuddle bug!
