We will do our best to answer your questions in this profile. If you have further questions please email us @ forsacredhearts@gmail.com ~ DO NOT call us unless you have filled out an adoption application which is located near the bottom of our home page @ www.sacredhearts.petfinder.com ~ Many times we speak to a person for 30 minutes or more about a dog only to find out, after receiving the application, that there are several factors that prevent us from placing the dog in the home. We run a shelter and that 30 minutes is precious time taken away from the animals here, please respect this.
All dogs/cats here are spayed/neutered, dewormed, heartworm tested ( cats are FeLV/FIV Tested), on heartworm prevention, current on vaccines and microchipped, UNLESS otherwise stated.

Story of rescue: Dutch and Cinnamon came here last winter after living through the absolute coldest part of the year (30 below 0), in an outdoor kennel run with one plastic dog house for two large dogs. I cold not see evidence of straw in the house. Dutch was extremely thin and had many pressure sores on his body from sleeping with no bedding. Dutch and Cinnamon came together and get along well, they were said to have been house dogs at one point. Dutch keeps his area clean and appears to be housebroken. Although Dutch had a very hard time adjusting to other dogs here at the rescue, he is doing great now and plays well with the other dogs here.
Please research the breed you are applying for @ www.dogbreedinfo.com ~ Some breeds to not fit is some homes ~
