Story
Meet Audra. Audra found herself at the shelter with her brother Sol. These two found themselves at the shelter, picked up as strays. At the shelter, which is very loud and scary place, they were very timid and fearful. The shelter reached out to see if a rescue could give them a better place to come out of their shells. At the shelter being fearful and timid can end in euthanasia. We were able to partner with one of our rescue friends to get them out of the shelter. We hoped that going into boarding where they could interact with several people a day would help them realize humans can be good. Well, the joke was on us. These two are wonderful, curious puppies. When our director went to meet them, they ran right to her to say hello. They crawled up in her lap and have been having a fantastic time at daycare saying hello to everyone they can. We are guessing they are about a year old. This is only a guess; they may be younger. We just can't convince these pups to carry their birth certificates these days. So, this may be as big as they get, or they could grow a bit. Our best guess is that they are terrier/pug mixes. They will be adopted out separately. These are great, funny dogs that love to play. And they are young, so they have energy. If you are looking for a couch potato to hang out and sit with you to binge watch your newest tv obsession all day, these are not the pups for you. These 2 are going to need walks and toys and training. If you are ready to commit to one of these pups joining your family, please visit our website and fill out an adoption application Learn more about me and fill out an online adoption application on the From the Heart Rescue website at: www.fthar.org. My requested adoption donation includes my spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations and medical care to date, microchip implantation and registration, collar, leash, and ID tag. If Im not exactly what you want, please visit my other friends in rescue at From The Heart Rescue on our website at www.fthar.org.

Story
Sweet Coco found herself at the shelter as a stray. This wasn't her first time there. She was picked up as a puppy and adopted out. But this time no one came looking for her. The microchip information was no longer current. During her intake exam the vet noted that she had a severe luxating patella, where the kneecap can move out of the groove and slip side to side, and the vet felt it was severe enough to require surgery. Coco was put up for adoption and received a lot of interest, but everyone backed out when realizing that she would require surgery to live her best life. The shelter asked if we could take her and get her surgery so she could have a chance at a loving home. One of our amazing fosters said they had room, and we got her right into our vet. It turns out that instead of a luxating patella, Coco has a torn CCL. Basically, a person's ACL. Our vet no longer handles these types of surgery, so we have an appointment with another vet to see what he says. If everyone could keep a good thought for Coco that would be great. So far, we have learned that she loves to play and is loving and snuggly. Keep an eye for updates about Coco.   Learn more about me and fill out an online adoption application on the From the Heart Rescue website at: www.fthar.org. My requested adoption donation includes my spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations and medical care to date, microchip implantation and registration, collar, leash, and ID tag.

River

Shepherd (Unknown Type) Labrador Retriever

Female, Young

Story
We found River at 5 1/2 weeks old with her litter. She needed medical attention, so we took her in and re-homed the others in the litter at 8 weeks. Once her medical situation was complete, we got her up to date on shots and just held onto her. She is now spayed, UTD on vaccinations and microchipped (information will be transferred over with her). After about a year, I am looking into re-homing her due to energy level and necessity. We are not only in the process of moving to a 2 dog facility, but I am looking at having surgery in the fall (recovery period Is approx 6 months) and she will not be able to go out as much. She's a high energy dog who needs to be ran, played fetch or have another dog to play with. She will play fetch for hours if she can find someone who will play with her. It's unknown if she is good with kids, she does jump and that would need to be worked on. She's never had any contact with cats so that unknown as well, though I would be very careful with meet and greets, she is very high energy and may scare cats. She is good with other dogs once she gets to know them, though may annoy some older dogs due to energy level. Meet and Greet will be necessary and can be arranged. She is kennel trained and potty trained, she loves to be outside but is a slight escape artist. (Does not jump walls, but dug under our fence with another stray who we were fostering). She is a huge cuddle monster and craves attention. Though she will chew on bones and toys if you need time, or can take a "nap" in her kennel when you need space. We've done the best we could with her due to time restraints and her slight shepherd stubbornness. She would do great with someone who has some time to work with her and regular walks/runs/playtime. She will come with her kennel, her harness, her leash and her collar. I'll also transfer all pertaining paperwork and information for the vet we have used for any information in the future.

Story
Hello my names Dennis and I’m looking for a good home for our Dog Basil. We originally adopted him as a puppy back in 2019 and have many great memories with him. But due to us moving into an apartment with strict Pet policy has made it hard for to us to keep him. Basil is an amazing dog and it hurts us to make this decision that’s why I’m here to ensure he finds a new home well fitting for him. Basil knows tricks such “sit” and “laydown” he gets along well with children and loves to play. If interested please reach out and we can set up a meet and greet to see if he’s the right dog for you. Thank you
