My story

ATTENTION:  All of our dogs are in private foster homes.  We do NOT have a kennel with multiple dogs.  If you find a dog you want to meet in person, please go to www.secondchancedogrescue.org and complete an application.    We will make every attempt to process all applications within 3 business days of receipt. // // Meet Helga!  Helga is a beautiful 8 year old, 75 lb German Shepherd/Malinois Mix.  True to her breed, She has strong protective and territorial instincts. Helga needs a lot of exercise and stimulation throughout the day.  She loves to go on walks, play fetch and tug rope. She is very food motivated and loves treats and special dinners. She demands belly rubs from everyone she knows. She is potty trained and sleeps through the night. Helga will need to be the only dog in the home and needs to be in a home without small children.  Because of her temperament and behavior, socialization will be extremely important for her over her entire life.  Helga's adoption fee is $300. A refundable training deposit of $100 will be also due upon adoption. Training must be provided in a timely fashion to ensure our pups become the best canine citizens. The Training deposit will be refundable within 3 Months of Adoption date.    *Helga is eligible for local adoption only with a home visit requirement.  All Second Chance Dog Rescue dogs are spayed/neutered, are up to date on vaccines and have microchips prior to adoption.   Adoption fees vary depending on age of dog. Fees help Second Chance Dog Rescue cover spay/neuter costs,   vaccinations, medical treatments, food and supplies. Please go to  www.secondchancedogrescue.org  and complete an application today!    All dogs live in private foster homes until they are adopted.  December 16, 2024, 12:16 am

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Helga, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
