This is a very difficult rescue to work with. As a foster, there is no way to get in touch with anyone other than email, and it is rarely responded to quickly. Fosters are not given any information on who to contact and are treated very poorly. I never received any food, supplies, leashes, etc. When I asked I was given a ziploc bag of food for a large breed dog (approx. 2 meals) and told they did not have any other supplies for the dog. They seem to only care about the dogs that can get them publicity (= more $). The average dog doesn’t receive any training, minimal medical care, etc. While it seems they are trying to do good, I think they have forgotten that the dogs should be most important focus, not the publicity and money. They have lost their focus.

We adopted a rescue dog from second hand hounds. She was in bad condition when they got her. She was thin, black teeth, worms, infected feet and a bad limp.
She was a puppy mill mom. Just 4 years old and never let out of cage but to breed and give birth.
She was from Oklahoma. Thank god second hand hounds picked her up before she was killed.
They found a good foster home for her and yes we were interviewed to see if it would be a good fit for her. Lucky for us it was.
Second hand hounds had her fixed, had her wormed, teeth cleaned and
Had her leg examined and ex rayed. Their vet couldn’t find any thing wrong with her leg, we adopted her anyway. Second hand hounds told us to take her to our vet and have her examined and they would help pay the bill.
We did and after three vets looked our Mollie over they decided that something must have happened in the past and lifting her leg was a habit.
I believe in my heart they do the best they can with what they have.
We have had Mollie, our Jack Russell for almost 2 years now and love her.
Thank you second hand hounds.

We fostered for them once. The foster application went very smoothly, their foster coordinator for our breed department was very sweet and responsive– we really enjoyed working with her. Ultimately, we ended up deciding to not foster with them again, and to move our attention to a smaller, breed-​focused rescue.
Finally, I want to mention that our dog (a herding breed) was adopted as a 6 mo old from SHH. She came to SHH as a very young puppy with no prior experience with trauma. She was placed in a foster home with way too many other dogs (mostly herding breeds) in a small house, with a very small yard. We have had to spend SO MUCH time, money and energy working through her shy-​fearful behavior. This could have been easily corrected, or at the very least alleviated, by making sure that dogs (especially herding breeds!) are placed in fosters homes that are suitable to their personality needs and will provide them with the necessary socialization to live healthy, successful lives.
I debated for a LONG time about writing this review– as SHH does good work, and rescues a ton of dogs from high kill shelters and dangerous situations (you can’t argue with that!) But I think that if you’re looking at adopting a sensitive, high-​energy breed like a herding breed, you may benefit from looking a breed-​specific rescues, who put a lot of attention into making sure their dogs fosters are a good match for the dogs coming in, not just an emergency stopping point.

I have been fostering for SHH for about 18 months. Tons of support. Answer all questions promptly. This weekend I will be working in the office as a volunteer, I’m super excited. Truly a great rescue.

I am a foster for secondhand hounds going on 2 years. One of my second fosters i ended up adopting. Secondhand hounds works with high kill shelters around the country as well as pulls from many local impounds in the twin cities. They also do owner surrenders.
They do monthly preventative on their dogs heartworm and flea and tick. They also offer training programs. Running a rescue is not easy by any means. They rely mostly on the good will of volunteers. Most of their proceeds goes toward veterinary expenses and they are one of the few rescues in the twin cities that actually has an office with office hours. They have a training area as well.

Their website of available dogs is massively out of date. If they can’t handle something so simple, I’d hate to see the support they provide through out the foster and adoption process.

I have one adopted dog from here. I was really surprised at the extent of background info and in person home check they did to ensure you will provide a happy home for your potential new dog. I am happy with the transparency of info they had on the dog I adopted. I am very pleased :)

We foster through them and couldn’t be happier. To the very misinformed reviewer below (hey next time do your research…), Secondhand Hounds takes in owner surrender animals because if they are taken to a shelter, they will likely be put down. Especially cats, which have a very low adoption rate. Animals are vetted before they go to foster care, and fostering the animals is free. Animals are not being «sold.» Providing free vet care, food, toys, treats, etc. is not cheap! All of the proceeds from the adoption fees go right back into the rescue. ALL the animals are in foster homes until they are adopted– this is a rescue, not a shelter.

The workers like to «purchase» cheap animals on facebook and sell them through the hound dog adoption. I was helping my friend find a good home for a kitten with CH and she msged me wanting the kitten saying she had a cat with it and other disabled dogs, seemed like a perfect fit however, the fact that stephanie (a volunteer) lied 2 me saying this. She basically sold the kitten through secondhand hounds and said my friend kept the kitten in a barn. They did this to my sis too, luckily she was fostering the puppy and they didn’t know that otherwise they probably would of lied their way into getting this puppy too. full of liars. Such a shame. Maybe you should save animals off the streets, rather than try to find free/​cheap animals off of Facebook making the owners believe their pet is getting a wonderful home when they are just going to the «pound» to be sold.

My husband and I planned to adopt through SHH and luckily a mistake on THEIR part helped us to choose a different rescue.
The dog we saw was cute and sweet but the foster thought she had caught kennel cough. She was supposed to go into the vet and meanwhile the rescue was going to have us do our home visit.
The shelter emailed me about our vet info. They asked under only my LAST name rather than my full name and received out of date information (I realize this is partly the vet’s fault, but you would think that they’d ask for both first and last name. Looking under my last name actually pulls up my EX-​husband and the current info for both my dogs is under mine and my new husband’s name).
Meanwhile, it was found that the dog is actually more sick than they originally first thought. I received an email before I could ever respond about the out of date vet information, basically writing me off and saying they couldn’t adopt to us because our pets weren’t up to date on vaccinations (untrue) and oh, by the way, the dog you wanted to adopt is really sick.
Um, how about rather than judge me until you get the full story you take a look at how you’re taking care of this sick puppy.
We’ve since begun working with a different rescue that is SO much better at communication.
Pick up the slack SHH and quit assuming things before you get the full story. Oh and this is still a business, don’t be so rude to your CUSTOMERS.

We fostered for this rescue for a short time. I found the adoption coordinator to be a bit of a flake. They also don’t do much vetting on the dogs. They bring large quanitites of dogs up from Missouri. Those dogs are seen by the shelter vet there. Once they get here they are only given boosters, if needed. We ended up adopting one of our three SHH fosters. She just came due for her vaccinations so we brought her in to the vet. They found she tested positive for ehrlichiosis and has a luxating patella. Both of these things should have been discovered by the rescue had they done a proper vetting job. Considering the amount they want for adoption fees, I would expect the dogs to be vetted.

A wonderful rescue organization that places dogs of all breeds, cats, and small animals (rabbits, mostly) with foster homes around the metro area until they are adopted. I especially love that they place dogs of ALL breeds — so many places discriminate! Easy to work with, with great staff, and a very thorough process to match animals to prospective owners. The adoption process moves quite efficiently, which is surprising considering how thorough it is (application, visiting the animal, home visit for the adopter).
They are very strict about their principles of animal welfare, particularly that all pets should be fixed (to prevent larger problems of overpopulation), that cats should not be de-​clawed, and pets should be indoor companion animals (as opposed to outdoor guard dogs). They will not let you adopt a pet if you have other pets who are de-​clawed, not fixed, or not up to date on shots, except for medical reasons. Pets who are adopted get all standard vaccinations and spayed or neutered before they’re given to their adopted family. All in all, this is a very well-​run rescue organization that I would highly recommend!
