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.

Hugo (aka Ridgely)

Guess it is as good a time as any to send an update on Hugo (a.k.a Ridgely), Stella (a.k.a Dotty) too while we are at it.

Stella and Hugo just love each other, as you can see from the photo Hugo is her little shadow and who can blame him, she is still the most gorgeous. Hugo is so handsome, just look at those ears. Hugo is 4
months now and Stella is 10 months and just last weekend had their first trip to Grandma & Grandpa's cabin at the lake. They were crashing through cattails for 6 hours and only paused on occasion to try out their swimming skills...let's just say they need practice.

Hugo will be going for puppy obedience soon and Stella is going to try out flyball! We expect they will excel at both. They are doing wonderfully and love to help with the gardening (eating the flowers) and are always willing to help dig a hole whether asked to or not, usually not!

Thank you again for helping us find our puppies!

Pauline & Rob.
