Story
Meet Giles! Giles is sensivite sweetheart who is learning that humans are to be trusted and cuddles are great! It is heartwarming to see Giles start to trust his humans and show his true personality!When Giles first joined his foster home, he was submissive and scared, and liked to hang out in the bathroom by himself. He wasn`t sure about people but was always comfortable with is 3 foster fur sibings. He would probably benefit from another dog his size or smaller in his furever home.Giles is now showing his inquisitive side and is very interested in his people although he still keeps his distance and may go to another room if he feels overwhelmed. He likes to follow his humans around in the house and will typically sit nearby, although he doesn`t jump up on the couch or seek out physical attention. He will let his humans pick him up and he will sit next to his foster parents and let them pet him. He also enjoys gentle brushing with a wire brush. He tolerates indoor bathing.Giles is the sweetest guy, he is quiet and well-behaved, house-trained and crate trained. There have been no accidents in the house! Giles rarely barks, and he has started wagging his tail at his humans, in the morning and when around his foster fur-siblings.At night Giles sleeps in his crate (just say `CABIN!` and he goes right in) but he loves time on the bed with his humans for relaxed snuggles before bedtime and would likely love to sleep on the bed all night. He sleeps quietly through the night. In the morning after he goes outside for potty, he joins his foster siblings on the bed for more snuggles.During the day, Giles goes to his Cabin on his own for a chance to rest without prompting. It seems to be a `safe space` he enjoys.Giles eats well and per the vet is at what should be his permanent weight. He is used to eating his kibble in his cabin so his foster siblings don`t try to eat his food!He enjoys treats, but he is timid and if another dog tries to take his treat, he will let them.He is learning that toys are fun and enjoys `tough` fabric chew toys.Giles does OK with leash-walking but is learning not to pull since he is strong. He hasn`t learned to go potty on the leash. He is calm when he sees other dogs or cats on his walk. He isn`t sure he wants to go on a leash walk, but once he gets outside, he`s ready to go and enjoys walking at least a mile. He does his best walking when on a double leash with one of his foster

Story
Meet Toto!Toto is a sweet, older gentleman who loves nothing more than curling up in your lap or snoozing in his bed. Despite his age, he still has a playful side and enjoys having fun with his stuffed animals. His happy little personality is sure to bring a smile to your face!Due to his age, Toto has some weakness in his hind end. He still likes to get up and move around, but long hikes and stairs aren’t the best fit for him. If your home has steps, he’s small enough to be carried in and out with ease.Toto recently underwent major surgery and has recovered beautifully. To stay healthy, he’s on a special urinary diet, which helps prevent bladder stones from returning. He doesn’t mind sticking to his special food, and it keeps him feeling his best. He prefers going potty outside but wore potty pants indoors during his recovery period. Now that he’s feeling better, he’s ready to find his forever home where he can enjoy his golden years in comfort and love.To set up a meet and greet or inquire about a dog, please first fill out an application at https://savinghoperescue.org/adopt. It doesn`t obligate you, but it is the first step. We don`t get to all of the inquiries but respond to all applications. Thank you for choosing to rescue!

Story
Emmah is 1 year old (DOB 4/9/24) and weighs around 14 pounds. We are guessing her breed is a maltipoo mix. She is all white except her ears and is just gorgeous. She looks like a cotton ball when groomed. She loves to run fast zoomies in the yard (a fenced in yard will be a requirement for adoption). She plays with the other foster dogs in her foster home. She enjoys walks on a leash. She uses a doggy door like a champ. She rides so well in a car you will look in the back seat to make sure she’s still there. Emmah is young and energetic and still needs patient supervision and loving guidance to be the best she can be. Emmah is spayed, up to date on shots, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $140. If you are interested in adopting Emmah please submit an application to our email hoodcoanimalloversorganization@gmail.com or call Lynne at 817-964-0333.
