Meet Breezy! Are you looking for a smart and active dog that is also loving and social? Breezy might be the one for you. When we say smart, we mean SMART. Her foster mom is using talking buttons to keep her occupied. Breezy quickly discovered pushing the "puzzle" button meant treats. 😃

She's good with other dogs and kids. And she is so eager to learn new things! If you'd like more information on Breezy, please visit our website and look under Pet List (link in bio).

Sometimes, our volunteers adopt their foster dogs. Sometimes, there's a connection that can't be ignored. This happened with Lena, a sweet Pyr mix from Texas. Lena had major surgery that required a long recovery. When she was healed and ready for adoption, her foster family decided she was already home! We are so happy for Lena, who is described by her family as a super cuddly, entertaining goofball that is way too smart at times and joyful all of the time.

❤️❤️❤️

Raw cat food recalled in MN. Cats are more susceptible to bird flu from eating uncooked meat. The recalled food is listed further down in this article.

Some pet owners feed their animals raw meat, but that can be dangerous and even fatal for the animals.

Colby checking himself out in the mirror (or, maybe it's another cat in his room). He and his brother will be up for adoption in a couple weeks. They are the sweetest, most cuddly boys ever.

Are you looking for a sweet, calm, gentle dog that is still young (4 years old!) but doesn't have puppy energy? Meet Luna. She just might be the dog of your dreams. Luna is a wonderful companion who loves attention and giving kisses in return. At 54 # she is a great size - not too big, not too small - just right. Her only vice? Luna loves to chase squirrels, rabbits, and other outside critters. Pretty understandable since she's part hound. We think she's an amazing girl. If you'd like to know more about Luna, please visit our website.

Sparkle, an 8-year-old Maltese, was a retired breeder dog who had been very neglected. She came to us with rotten teeth and six mammary tumors. After several trips to the vet, all tumors were removed and tested, and all her remaining teeth needed to be pulled. She is now healthy, happy and pain free. You can donate at this link -

Sophie came into our program from a local animal control facility. They noted that she was missing several teeth and her entire mouth was infected. Sophie had to have all her teeth pulled to stop the infection and relieve her pain. She recovered wonderfully and eats both dry and wet food just fine. She is the most affectionate cat who purrs nonstop and just wants love. Please donate to help us help more animals like Sophie - https://givemn.org/organization/Second-Chance-Animal-Rescue-1

Your donations help dogs like Lena who was hit by a car. She had a torn cruciate ligament in her right knee and a broken femur and dislocated patella in her left leg, all of which required surgery. Second Chance paid to have all three injuries repaired in two separate surgeries. After that, Lena started physical therapy – twice a week hydrotherapy sessions. Lena is now doing very well and is a happy dog who can run and play again. Please help us help more dogs and cats by donating -
