Story
Buttons is happy-go-lucky, energetic, and friendly with people. She enjoys car rides and trips to the beach and walks nicely on a leash. Buttons enjoys playing with plush toys and a good back scratch and massage whenever you can give her one.  Buttons is affectionate and can take short walks in cooler temperatures.  She travels well in the car and is always up for an outing.  Buttons is a healthy 9-year-old who weighs 16 lbs. She is a strong Pug and will get under your feet, particularly in the kitchen, so she can be a trip hazard.   Buttons is crate trained, leash-trained and doing very well on her housetraining.  She needs to be leashed-walked because she wants to put things in her mouth like leaves, so she does not need a fenced yard.  A small tidy fenced yard is fine but not necessary.  Buttons came to us starved so would do best being the only dog in the home due to food resource guarding with dogs (but not with people). We would prefer her forever home be one with Pug experience.  The adoption range for this dog is limited to NC, SC, VA and East TN. If you are interested in adopting this dog, contact h2hadoptions@gmail.com. There is an application process and adoption fee. We are an all-volunteer organization, and in addition to saving dogs, we have other responsibilities, so we appreciate your patience and understanding during this process. Response time can take up to 5 business. Please inquire only if you are willing to come to Greensboro, NC to meet the dog after we schedule your home visit. We do not ship dogs or put them on transports. Veterinary Care: All Hart-2-Heart Rescue foster dogs are spayed/neutered, current on heartworm prevention, parvo/distemper, bordetella, and rabies vaccines, and are professionally groomed. As needed, our foster dogs have teeth cleanings, extractions, bloodwork and other diagnostic testing. Adoption Fee:  $500November 4, 2024, 1:54 am

Story
Meet Gina 🐾 Gina is a resilient and sweet 7-year-old pup looking for a loving, patient home. While she’s had a tough past, her gentle nature shines through, especially when she’s around other dogs. Chelsea is more comfortable with canine companions than humans and thrives in a home with other dogs to guide and support her. She’s still learning to trust people, but with time, patience, and understanding, she’ll blossom. Important Disclosures for Potential Adopters: Heartworm Positive: Gina is currently heartworm positive and being treated using the Moxy/Doxy protocol. This alternative method avoids the painful injection treatments but may take longer (up to a year) for her to test negative. Next Steps: After adoption, you can choose to continue this protocol or discuss injection treatments with your vet (cost estimate: ~$1,000). Regular monthly administration of Advantage Multi is essential, along with strict activity restriction until she tests negative. Plan for a heartworm test in 3-4 months to monitor her progress and determine when she can safely resume normal exercise. Eye Condition: Gina has some scarring on her cornea and iris, which has remained stable since her last check-up in July. Recommendations: A veterinary ophthalmologist could provide more specific guidance on her eye health, prognosis, and treatment options. While the scarring is chronic, there is a possibility her cornea could be more vulnerable to ulceration. Behavioral Notes: Gina experienced some behavioral changes while in her previous home, including reduced responsiveness and forgetting boundaries. What We Know: Neurological exams and bloodwork have ruled out underlying health issues like liver or kidney disease. These changes may stem from anxiety or stress related to her puppy mill background. Personality Traits: Gina is more comfortable around dogs than people, and she’ll thrive in a home with other calm, social dogs. She’s still fearful of people and needs a patient adopter to help her feel safe. Currently, she allows petting but only when gently approached. Gina Ideal Home: A calm, quiet environment with other friendly dogs. An adopter who understands her need for patience and is willing to give her the time and space to adjust. Someone committed to managing her health needs and providing regular vet care. Gina has so much love to give and will be a loyal companion to the right family. If you think you can provide Gina with the safe and supportive home she deserves, please reach out to learn more about her! 🐶❤️
