Operation Second Chance

The Operation Second Chance program was established in 2010 as a partnership between the Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Office and the Society of Humane Friends of Georgia. Male inmates are given the opportunity to provide foster care and obedience training to the homeless dogs of Gwinnett County. Animal professionals visit The Gwinnett County Detention Center three times a week to teach inmates how to train and care for the dogs. In 2013, the Jail Dogs Program added cats into the equation for female inmates. More than 500 dogs and 60 cats have been adopted into new homes. 

This program offers both the inmates and the rescue dogs and cats a second chance on life.
