Welcome to Mid-Missouri’s Largest Animal Rescue Group

Foster, Adopt, Educate

At Second Chance, we make families. We’re a privately-funded animal rescue organization dedicated to rehoming animals and supporting relationships between people and pets. We do this through acts of rescue, adoption and education. We’re always striving to increase the number of animals we help every year, and we wouldn’t be where we are today without our amazing staff, donors, volunteers and foster families.

Foster a Pet with Second Chance

Our Animal Rescue Relies Heavily on Foster Families

Second Chance wouldn’t be possible without foster families. In fact, all of our adoptable dogs and over 70% of our cats reside in foster care. Fostering is so important because it gives our animals the opportunity to learn how to be part of a family before moving on to their forever homes. We will work closely with you to find the right foster match. All you have to do is open your heart and home, and we will take care of the rest!
