Second Chance Dogs (2016)

Many say that dogs are a manﾒs best friend but what about second chance dogs? Second chance dogs are dogs that have behavioral issues that usually come from puppy mills or hoarding cases and are given a second chance to become part of a family. Itﾒs not an easy road and this film documents the everyday issues and struggles that they must face. This particular documentary focuses on a few dachshunds and Alaskan malamutes within the ASPCA organization. They are given six months to help overcome behavioral issues and find a forever home. However, sadly not all dogs pass the test which puts their very lives at risk. These dogs must overcome four fears: the fear of walking on a leash, the fear of people, the fear of handling and the fear of novelty. Once they overcome these fears they are then up for adoption for a forever home. This film captures exactly where these dogs come from, their journey and their second chance at life.
