Sweet Melody was a sickly pup when she was first took in by Mrs Lai with the help of her rescuer Ming Yuet, who has now became our dedicated volunteer in the shed.

Remember Her? 4th Dec 2010, by Second Chance
Can’t see who she is? As usual, this timid girl did not budge when I stood at the gate and kept calling her name for more than 10 minutes! She just sat under the car as if I am invisible! She finally stood up, wagged her tail and walked to her favourite spot in the house when the housekeeper let me in. That’s Sooni alright. The cool girl. Oh! She is an ardent gardener too and always try to hide her bone. Can you all see the half eaten piece of bone in the picture? Kudos to Mrs...

Tasha Tasha, What’s That On Your Nose? 3rd Dec 2010, by Second Chance
I always find it very hard to distinguish who’s who among the black coloured dog in the shed… simply because there’s rarely any obvious special mark on the body to tell. It took me 2 months to finally be able to tell Lily from Mulan >_< ~ANyone want to guess which one is Mulan and which one is Lily? >_< ~ Tasha is also another black beauty in the shed.. but i can tell her apart from the others because her fur is slightly longer.. Tasha when she i...

No wonder she is on the streets. To all pure breed owners, especially large breeds...

We Have No Choice But To Be Thick Faced >_< 30th Nov 2010, by Second Chance
We have make several appeals for donation and contribution in so many occasions that we’re pretty much thick faced by now @_@ Today we like to appeal for donation of dogs and cats food ( yes.. cat too ). Our shelter may not house any cats but Aunty Kiew dutifully feed the stray cats near her place everyday. We’re currently running low on canned food. Canned food is pretty much a privileged meal in the shed.. As we have limited amount of canned food, we mostly mixed it with rice and serve,...

Jacky Boy, A Bundle Of Energy 29th Nov 2010, by Second Chance
Jacky Boy is now around 9 months old, and is really a bundle of energy! When you take him for a walk, it is him that walked you, not the other way round.. And since most of us are no match for him, we will make sure the surrounding area has no other male dogs and let him run around. He will dash to one end of the shed, and then turn around the run to the other end.. ~Run here, run there~ ~Sniff here, Sniff there ~ ~Rest a while to hydrate himself_ ~Then it’s time to leas...

The moment that we all have been dreading has finally show up one day in the form of a big notice board… The place that we’re currently occupying to temporarily house the rescued strays and abandoned pets will be developed in the near future. While we’re searching up and down for new place to relocate our shelter, we hope to get furrizens here rehomed. Please, if you or somebody you know is looking for a pet, why not get them to adopt instead. The furrizens here may not be of pedigree...

Sweet November 26th Nov 2010, by Second Chance
*This post is dedicated to the best rescued dog ever – Mr. Sean Black* The day we picked up Sean… He was crossing a busy road when we saw him. He was wearing a long leash. I asked my boyfriend whether we could help this poor dog by removing his leash. So we quickly rushed home to get some dog kibbles to feed him. When I was trying to move closer to this black dog, oh my, have just realized he is quite a big-boned dog. Surprisingly, he was friendly and playful. He came close and...
