My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi there! I’m Heidi, and I’m excited to share a little about me!

I like the slow life - sitting in the sun, listening to the birds, and feeling the breeze. I’ve gone through some tough things, but I’m now in a wonderful environment and have met so many loving people along the way! I make friends with everyone, and I do think I’m the best lap dog around! I like kids, but I do get nervous around high energy kids. So I would do best around older ones. I’m the most affectionate pup, and I’ve never met a stranger! My way of saying hello is to fall into you and give you lots of kisses! I’m just the most friendly girl.

Part of my story is that I am a mama of eleven pups who have found their forever homes! I’m a caring girl and just want to be right next to my people. I like most dogs, but really I mostly like the other calm dogs. I like slow intros to other pups as well. I would do well in a home either as an only pup, or with another pup who is respectful of my desire to just chill out. If I’m bothered by something, I usually just get up and move. You should also know, I'm a really good jumper! I would do well in a yard with a tall fence, or if there isn't a tall fence we can just walk outside on a leash.

I'm the best co-worker for my foster mom as she works from home. I don't make a sound while she's working! And I'm a great sleeper! I haven’t had one accident in the house, and don't look for things to get into either. I’m pretty good with walking on a leash, I like to take my time to check out what is around me first. I absolutely love riding in cars!

My foster mom says I’m just the best girl and that I deserve a best friend who will stop and smell the roses with me.

Are you my forever snuggler?

***FOSTER TO ADOPT***
Heidi is Heartworm positive and not yet spayed. She will soon start her Heartworm treatment. Once her treatment is complete, and her spay is done, the adoption can be finalized. Once her adoption is finalized, it is the responsibility of the adoptive family to get a Heartworm test every 2 months to follow up on her treatment progress until she has a negative result which can take 2-9 months. During these months, you will need to make sure her heart rate is not elevated due to high-energy play or exercise. Heidi will also need continued use of monthly Heartworm prevention going forward. These medical needs will be the responsibility of the adopter.
If you are interested in adopting Heidi, please fill out an adoption application.

--------------------------------------------

All our Warrior Dogs will have all age appropriate medical care and vaccines, a microchip, and spayed/neutered if the dog is over 6 months of age at the time of adoption.

Please note that the majority of our dogs in rescue are from shelters where they have been found as strays or abandoned. Their breed description is based on our very best educated guess based on physical characteristics and their dispositions. If they came to our rescue as an owner surrender, the breed description will be listed as provided by the previous owner.

More about this rescue

The mission of Warrior Dog Rescue is to save the dogs that are homeless, left abandoned in shelters, are surrendered by their owners, those that are being abused and neglected, and those that are left wandering. We are committed to providing them the medical care they need, helping them to overcome their past by providing them loving, educated foster homes, finding them their perfect forever home by means of a thorough adoption process, and guiding them on their journey into their new life. They all deserve a “good dog life… every single one of them.”

Warrior Dog Rescue will be a model rescue by partnering with overcrowded shelters that need to make room for more abandoned dogs. We will continue to educate others about responsible dog ownership in regards to safety, spay/neuter, nutrition, obedience, socializing, abuse, and neglect. We acknowledge that we will have a role in this industry to take the lead on providing awareness to others in the community and across the country. Every dog will know what it feels like to be loved till the end of their life.
