About SCARS

Second Chance Animal Rescue Society (SCARS) is dedicated to reducing the number of homeless animals in Northern Alberta, Canada

We believe that there is a suitable home for all homeless animals: young or old; large or small.

As a volunteer-run, registered charity, we care for these animals by providing veterinary care and foster homes for animals in need until a permanent home is found. These private foster homes provide the animals with warm shelter, food, exercise, and tender loving care (something that so many of the animals we receive have never experienced).

SCARS does not practice selective intake procedures and operates in a triage manner: taking the animal in most medical need first. As a result our medical expenses are enormous. Please consider donating to our rescue efforts.


Look At Us Now!

To date, SCARS has rescued and rehomed over 3,000 animals.

Because these animals live in our homes, we deveop a very deep bond with our fosters. Many of the adoptive families keep us updated on how well their new companions are thriving in their new homes.

To all the wonderful foster homes, all the tireless volunteers, all the compassionate furever-homes: we say a heartfelt thank-you!

Please support your local rescue society and consider adoption as opposed to buying your new friend.

Lucy & Zoe (aka Kelly & Peg)

It has been 1 year since my family and I came to get Lucy (aka Kelly) and I wanted to let you know that she has come a long way. At first she was afraid of all humans especially males, she didn’t know how to walk on a leash, and would cower away when anyone got close to her. One year later and she has a new lease on life. She loves going for walks, can’t get enough treats and will come to you and lick your hand. We’re still working on playing fetch, but that’s coming. I think the best thing that helped her was Zoe (aka Peg). They are truly siblings in all sense of the word, they get along well, sleep together and even fight with one another. I’ve sent a picture of the two of them.

Take care, Angela
