  • Dog Wash Fundraiser
    11:00 am-3:00 pm
    10/15/2022
    7408 Creedmoor Road Raleigh, NC 27613

    Bring your dog to Unleashed and Second Chance volunteers will bathe your pup for you! Spare you knees, back, and bathroom by making a contribution to Second Chance (recommended $10 per dog) so more stray and abandoned cats and dogs can get their second chances to find love. Cash, check, and credit card are all accepted on-site; your dog can get a bath as a walk-in or you can make an appointment via our website.

    Dog washes are the third Saturday of each month, from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in January and February, and from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. in March through December.

    We strongly encourage you to make an appointment–doing so will reduce or eliminate your wait time and you can even pre-pay for greater convenience if you’d like. To schedule a wash, click HERE. The reservation system opens at 12:00 noon on the first day of each month and closes at 11:00 a.m. the day before the wash or when all appointments are booked, whichever comes first. We will always have room for walk-ins.

    Our volunteers will follow any COVID-related protocols in place at the time, whether the precautions are set by Wake County, the City of Raleigh, Unleashed, or Second Chance. We encourage dog wash customers to do the same. If you have any questions about the protocols in place at the time of your scheduled wash or the dog wash itself, please contact us at Rachel@SecondChanceNC.org.

  • Cat Meet n’ Greet at Pet Supermarket
    12:00 pm-3:00 pm

    We often take our dogs into the community, but this time we’re bringing out cats out to say hello to everyone! Second Chance will be at Pet Supermarket in Raleigh October 15 from 12-3pm with several of our adoptable cats who are hoping to find their purr-fect match. Meet several of our cats to see if any of them could be your new furry friend! We’ll have knowledgable staff and fosters there as well, to answer any questions you may have about our feline pals! Be sure to stop by and say hi (or meow!)
