Second Chance Pups is a 501(c)3 corporation supported ENTIRELY by adoption fees and private donations. We select dogs from local shelters and rescues and match them to carefully selected volunteer inmate/handlers from the Nebraska State Penitentiary. Dogs then live at the penitentiary while handlers provide nine weeks of intense training and love. It is a great rehabilitative measure for the inmates, offering them an opportunity to give back to society in a positive manner and contribute to a solution for the growing problem of uncared-for and unwanted animals. Otherwise overlooked dogs get a second chance at a lifelong relationship with a loving family.
