Second Chance Dog Rescue was
founded in July, 2003 by Lisa Roosa and Jesse Reeve. Both have a
strong love for dogs and wanted to help homeless dogs find a "second
chance" at new and loving homes. Most of the dogs that come into
Second Chance Dog Rescue were either on their final days or very close
to it. Each of the dogs that are taken into our rescue are
examined by a veterinarian and provided with all shots. They are
also neutered or spayed and heart worm tested. The majority of the dogs
are often very sick and may also need time to just "feel better".
For my boyfriend,
Jesse Reeve. Thank you for helping to make a dream come true. Together we have
rescued and placed more animals than we can ever count. The faces of those
animals when they come to us, we will never forget. We share our home with them
while they heal however the true rewards are when "our little four legged
friends" find their "forever homes".
For my very special
friends and mentors, Linda and John Wickham,
Hickory
Hill K-9 Rescue.
You both are saints. Not only did you give me my very special cocker
Barrett, but I know I can always count on you whenever I need anything. Thanks
for being there for me and mentoring me.
For my very special
friend, Stacey Huntzinger who is always there to help me out. Not only does she
give me the chance to get away but she is always there when I need to work late
and can't get home to let the dogs out. This rescue would not run as well as it
does without her. Stacey, I canot thank you enough for all you do.
For Dr. Anna Russau. Words
alone can not express how much what you do means to me. This rescue is a dream
come true. Thank you so much for making it possible. You are always there
for both my animals and me. I can not thank you enough for what you do.
For Laura Bonner, Web Designer, my
dearest friend. I do not know what I would do without you. You also helped to
make a dream come true. You took a vision and turned it into a reality. I love
my website. It is so bright and cheerful. Not only did you make my website a
reality but you also helped to make my newsletter a reality. Both look
fantastic. I could not do it without you.
Second Chance Rescue would also

Many of these people have helped with everything from providing encouragement to
Jesse and I, to helping us keep up with all the dogs and their day to day needs,
to helping to hold dogs at the doggie adoption days or providing us with very
generous items for our homeless animals. It is through their generous support
that we are able to continue to help these homeless animals.
