Second Hope Rescue is a small all-volunteer organization and adoptions are usually limited to areas of approximately 60 miles from Leonardtown, Maryland.   While all are dedicated to the rescue, most of the volunteers have full time jobs, families and animals that also require their time so your patience is appreciated. 

As all of our animals are in a fostering situation, we require a completed application as the first step in the adoption or fostering process.   The application will help us get to know you, your family, current pets and your lifestyle so adding your new addition will have the greatest chance for success.
