🛞 WHEELBARROW, ANYONE? 🛞

If anyone in the Milford/Loveland/Mason/Anderson/ish area has a working wheelbarrow they no longer need, we sure could use one!

See, we promised Vance rides, but we didn’t think he would take us up on it. (Also, and more practically, it would really make it a lot easier for us to haul all of the kennel-related things we haul every day - Alicia isn’t getting any younger!).

We’re happy to come pick it up!

(And yes, this is an AI-generated, Vance-approved picture)

Being lonely on Valentine’s Day is a choice when there’s a handsome man like Zac available 🩷

This delicious senior is available to be your big spoon OR your little spoon, depending on your couch-cuddling needs of the moment, AND he’s ok if you didn’t make reservations like half of the people on Chowdown Cincinnati right now.

His ideal Valentine’s date would be a long walk through the woods, a car ride to see the sights, and a homemade dinner at home; he never says no to a steak. 🥩

Zac gets along with other dogs with a proper meetup, but he requests a child-free home.

If Mr. Everything caught your eye, send us a DM; we’ll get you an intro!

Thank you to our amazing supporters 🩷 You are keeping us sane and our dogs fat, happy, and mentally-stimulated 😆

Thank you also for the lick mats, the gift cards, and the rest of the goodies that we got too excited about and forgot to film 😬

It’s been a long year…a very long year. But we’ve gotten the chance to be a part of the stories of hundreds of dogs 🩷

Goodbye, 2025. 2026…please be kind 😆

As we hurtle towards 2026 (because, let’s face it, do you think we even realized today was New Year’s Eve?), we got some great news from a donor who wants to remain anonymous: 💵all donations up to $5,000 will be matched! 💵

At Second Chance Dog Ranch, we work with lots of dogs and lots of owners and to make the biggest impact we can as a small organization. 💪

❗️Today, Griffey and the crew demanded we make this post. We’re just the messenger!

🎄’Twas the night after Christmas, when all through the hub,
All the doggies were stirring, yelling, “Give us our grub!

We’ve come to expect all the finest of things,
Chews, treats, and toys, not some fancy-ass rings.

A bone with our breakfast, another for dinner,
Something to play with - now that’s a winner!

If you loved us, you’d send it, we don’t mean to guilt,
But we spent time on the wishlists, and they’re pretty well-built.” 🎄

Well, you heard them! As we wrap up the year, the dogs have specifically requested more bones, treats, and things to chew to help with mental stimulation, and we would be so grateful for any help you’d like to give.

We’ve updated our Amazon and Chewy Wishlists with the dogs’ favorite things (but our volunteers have also requested help with floor brushes, cleaning supplies, pooper scoopers, training muzzles and more!). Chewy has some great mix and match deals on Buy 3, Get the 4th Free and $20 Off a $49+ order.

We had such a great group of dogs come out to see Santa on Sunday!

We are so thankful to be able to provide a calmer environment where dogs can take time to adjust to their surroundings and have private time with Santa. Every dog deserves this!

We even got to meet Nala, Gordy, and Dino, who are all looking for their forever homes this holiday season. Check them out at Rescue Me Animal Advocacy (Nala) and Spoil Em Rotten Foundation (Gordy and Dino).

A big THANK YOU to Frank and Norman’s mom for letting us use Fly Bungee Fitness- Cincinnati to make some doggy dreams come true this weekend!

We were so excited to see everyone who made it out, and we so appreciate the donations for Second Chance and Piper’s Pantry.

We’ll have your pictures to you shortly!
