Second Chance Animal Refuge Society (S.C.A.R.S.) in Auburn, KS
Second Chance Animal Refuge Society (S.C.A.R.S.) is an animal shelter located in Auburn, Kansas, in Shawnee County, about 15 miles northeast of Topeka, KS, with 5 other animal shelters or rescues also based in the county. SCARS focuses on saving abused, neglected, and abandoned dogs, working to place them in life-long homes with caring people who can give them love, companionship, and care. It operates as a free-roaming rescue, an approach recognized by Dog Fancy Magazine, and it does not accept dogs with a known history of aggression since it lacks the specialized equipment and behavioral experts needed to safely rehabilitate them.
