Pet's Story
Second chances are special. There is no guarantee of what will come of them. Second chances are a leap of love and faith for many homeless animals and when given the chance can blossom into an amazing life.

I was given a second chance at life when AHS took over my care and with the help of the community, AHS, Reach and AHNA, I lived. I was rescued from a burning house at 2 months old and sustained trauma on over 75% of my body. It took extensive medical care, love and support of many people, along with months of healing to get me ready for my new life.

I have not looked back! I still have physical scars and am still trying to figure out the world but I am a very happy girl. I live my life to the fullest. I love hard, play hard, sleep in when I can, always try to have "second" dinner, and give second chances.

I am a goofball in front of the camera, and a dorkus behind the camera. I make my humans laugh every day and remind them to take time to live life, not everyone gets a second chance.

I want to help spread the word to vote by donating to help animals who need humans of their own to remind them to slow down, live, love, and play more. Vote for me (or one of the amazing animals trying to help others have a second chance!)
