Delaware Valley Second Chance For Animals, Inc. is a 501 (c)(3) charity. They are a dedicated group of volunteers. Their focus is to give displaced, homeless, or owner-surrendered animals a second chance to find a permanent home. The vast majority of their animals are rescued from overcrowded shelters where they are often in danger of being euthanized.

They have no physical location. Once rescued, all of their furry friends are placed in private foster homes throughout the Delaware Valley. They do their best to ensure that while in foster care, all of their adoptees are healthy and well socialized, so you can concentrate on finding the ideal new addition to your family.
