For more than 20 years, Hopalong & Second Chance Animal Rescue has been saving the lives of dogs and cats from throughout the Bay Area. By focusing on their goal of eliminating euthanasia of adoptable animals throughout Northern California, the staff and hundreds of volunteers at Hopalong have rescued, spayed and neutered, and adopted out more than 24,000 animals. I was lucky to spend some time with this group recently, and a more dedicated and energetic group of animal welfare advocates you are not likely to find. If there is any group that has a chance to eliminate euthanasia of adoptable animals in Northern California, it is likely these folks.
