Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
As discarded hunting dogs, life hasn’t been easy for Heidi and Chaplin, but things are finally beginning to look up! Following a lifetime of neglect, they have received some much needed TLC, and are ready for their forever home.
We do believe Heidi and Chaplin to be a bonded pair, so would like to find them a wonderful home for retirement where they can live out their golden years TOGETHER. These days, relaxing and soaking up the love and pampering they deserved all along, is the only thing on their agenda.
Both pups are easy going and enjoy time outdoors in a fenced yard for sniffs, as well as, indoor time for ample naps. They lived their entire lives outdoors, so we are working on house training and have already seen great progress within the first couple of weeks. In the meantime, neither minds wearing a diaper. They do not jump up on furniture and are well behaved when left alone. They do not require crates, but will go in one if needed. Since neither pup is particularly confident on stairs - Chaplin being especially unsteady on them - access to staircases should be limited in order to prevent injury. In their foster home, a baby gate does the trick. A couple steps such as with a low deck are okay.
Heidi and Chaplin are both lovely, gentle souls, with sweet honey-colored eyes that will melt your heart. Both Heidi and Chaplin are believed to be approximately 10 years old. They each weigh approximately 30 lbs., are spayed/ neutered, heartworm negative, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations.
They are located in Newport News, Virginia.

More about this rescue
Homes Fur Hounds Inc. was formed to help the overwhelming number of animals that are abandoned, surrendered to county agencies and simply unwanted. These animals are facing death due to no fault of their own other than not being convenient. Our mission is to help stop the unnecessary killing of animals. Thousands of animals are put to sleep (some more humanely than others) every day. We strive to educate the public on the importance of spaying, neutering, heartworm preventive and general health care. We also strive to help owners who are experiencing difficulties with their pet find solutions to their problems. By helping them find solutions we keep the animals out of the county pounds and from being abandoned. It is our policy to adopt out only healthy dogs and to do our best to know and understand what type of home the dog needs. We are always striving to find that “forever home” for the animals.
