Story
Myah is a 3-4 year old Shih-Poo Mix. She is about 15 lbs.  *We cannot guarentee breeds, there are no breed paperwork, dna test etc. She was origainally purchased at the local flea market. We also will not tell you she is hypoallergenic, YOU could still be allergic! What we can guarentee is that she will need to be groomed every 4-6 weeks.  She is not a fan of getting her legs shaved or her toe nails cut. You will not want to tackle that project yourself. She will need to go to a professional, Please research the cost on maintaining grooming prior to adoption ( we say this lovingly, becuase we are tired of seeing dogs suffer and get matted because their family cannot afford the upkeep- Myah came to rescue with very matted hair, because of that, she is rocking the rescue cut. We had to shave her all the way down to address the unhealthy skin underneath. Mats are not only painfull, they trap in moisture which can cause skin infections. She also had scabs from flea allergies and no flea prevention)  Myah is now spayed, She is heartworm negative, on prevention against fleas/ticks and hearthworms. Her skin has cleared up beautifully and her coat is only starting to grown back.  She is good with other small dogs, is not sure of the larger dogs in her foster home or the kitties. She is under socialized and will need patience as she build confience with proper socialization. She will need a family that will take it slow. She is not ready to jump into a holiday party and meet your closest 100 friends.  She is sweet and when she is comforatble she is all smiles and tail wags. New experiences (like putting on jammies) and she will be reserved and unsure. But with proper guidance, she is ready to tackle new tasks with only slight reservations.  She has some seperation anxiety which is also causing some crate anxiety. We have been working through proper crate training and she is much more relaxed in her crate then when she first came to rescue and now retreats to hers when she needs a little time to herself.  She will destroy a wire crate. She is much safer and feels more secure in a plastic travel crate for times her family is away for the day.  adoption fee $300 includes spayed/neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and tested negative for heartworms ( dogs 7 months old and older) .To fill out an application visit https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/33868/generic ##2593712##

Thank you for your interest in one of our Hero Babies! Before inquiring, we thought it was important to share a few of our policies. Your Current Pets - We do require that your current dogs and cats are current on vaccines and spayed/neutered. Adoptions - We do not have a shelter and are a foster-home based organization. We do require that you have an approved adoption application to schedule a meet and greet. You can fill out an adoption application on our website, www.herorescue.org/adopt. Once your application is approved it will be sent to the foster family that is currently caring for the dog. They will be able to provide information on likes, dislikes, personality, etc. They will also schedule a time for you to meet the dog. We do require a home visit prior to adoption. Inquiries - If you would like more information on any dogs in the rescue, please email us at info@herorescue.org.

Story
A foster-to-adopt option is available for me, giving us the chance to get to know each other before making it official! Meet Baby Bruno! Bruno may be small, but he’s got a big personality—and a little spice to go with it! This clever, loyal pup is full of love once he feels safe with you. At first, he can be nervous around new people and situations, but with patience (and maybe a little cheese), his sweet and affectionate side shines through. Because Bruno can become nippy if startled or rushed, he’s looking for an experienced adopter who understands “spicy” dogs and is willing to respect his boundaries. A calm, low-traffic home without children will be the best fit for him. The good news? Bruno has plenty of great qualities to offer his perfect person! He’s housetrained, crate-trained, and enjoys the company of other dogs. A fenced yard would be a bonus, but he also does well on leash. To help set him up for success, Bruno’s adoption will include a couple of meet-and-greets and a home visit. He isn’t a dog for everyone—but for the right person, he’ll be a devoted and wonderful companion. Baby Bruno weighs 13lbs. and is approximately 4 years old (est. birth date 03/22/2021). Baby Bruno has been neutered, is up to date on all vaccinations & preventatives, and is microchipped. Baby Bruno's adoption fee is $85. If you want more information about Baby Bruno, please submit a survey at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FKDS/Dog. At this time, meeting our dogs is by appointment only. After submitting a survey, an adoption counselor will contact you to give you more information about the dog you are interested in adopting and to arrange for you to meet. Must be at least 21 years of age to adopt.
