Notes from 2nd Chance Dog Rescue

Meet Aurora,

Aurora is a 5-year-old petite, lowrider pocket pittie with a gentle personality and a huge heart. After surviving a life-threatening medical emergency, this special girl is ready for the next chapter of her life and a family to call her own.

Aurora has been living in a temporary foster home, where we have had the chance to see what an absolute sweetheart she is. She is potty trained, uses a dog door, is non-destructive in the home and is incredibly mellow. She is also very quiet — her foster hasn't even heard her bark!

Aurora loves being close to her people. She is affectionate, gives the sweetest hugs and is perfectly happy playing with her toys or curling up beside you for a relaxing evening. She takes treats gently and already knows "sit."

She doesn't need a home filled with constant activity. Aurora would be a wonderful companion for someone looking for an easygoing dog who enjoys affection, companionship and simply being together.

Aurora needs to be the only pet in her home. She would love nothing more than to have her person's love and attention all to herself.

Aurora's current foster home was only intended to be temporary, so finding her a committed long-term foster or foster-to-adopt home is very important.

While Aurora is in foster care, the rescue covers all of her necessary expenses and provides the supplies and support she needs. Her foster family provides the safe, loving home where she can continue to thrive while waiting for her forever family.

This sweet girl has already overcome so much. Now she deserves the stability, love and security of a home where she can finally settle in and know she belongs.

Could you be Aurora's second chance?
