BDSC... Until there are none, save one.

Black Dog Second Chance
PO Box 626
East Amherst, NY 14051

Our MISSION is to find the right homes for the dogs in our care and match the best dog with the best family.

BDSC takes pride in our rescue dogs and we focus on quality over quantity. We take our time with the dogs in our rescue- we don't operate a shelter so all of our rescue dogs are placed in loving foster homes until their forever homes are found. Our wonderful foster families get to know their personalities so that we can match them with forever homes. We are careful with our placements so our adopters are happy with their new furry friends. We would never just shuffle a dog off to a new home just to say we saved one.



Adopt. Foster. Volunteer. Donate.
Make a Difference.

BDSC is a no-kill (adoption guarantee), 501(c)3 rescue and any/all dogs that come in to our rescue, will eventually find their forever home. We work endlessly to save abused, neglected (physically and emotionally), homeless dogs that are on death row in shelters. All the funding that is used to save our rescue dogs is received through generous donations or our own fundraising efforts. Thank you for your support!
