Second Chance Dog Rescue

Volunteer

Volunteer Application   Volunteer Manual

We are an all-volunteer-operated rescue! Are you interested in finding forever homes for rescue dogs?  Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and re-home dogs.  We do not have a shelter or facility—all of our rescue dogs are in private homes.

Saving lives takes a village! We need a diverse team of volunteers with a wide range of skills to support our mission. If you have the desire to help, please apply. Your time and talents can make all the difference for dogs at risk.

This application is designed to help you and Second Chance Dog Rescue determine if volunteering with us is a good fit for you and, most importantly, for our dogs. Our primary goal is to provide the best possible care for all our dogs, and we seek volunteers who share that commitment.

We ask volunteers to attend a volunteer orientation, which is usually on a Saturday.  Please complete the volunteer application form and someone will get back to you shortly.

You can play a role in our operation to help change the lives of many animals in need!
