Story

Bumblebee is one of the HSWC favorite boyz! If you mention his name just about everyone gets a smile on their face. He is always happy to see you! He brightens up these cold winter days with his sunshiny personality and loving spirit.He didn't come from the best situation and he has set his sites on love this time around. He is waiting for the right family he can connect with.Here are some things we have learned about this special boi:🐶🟢He walks by dogs ok. He has been in play groups with other dogs. He does well with female dogs. He came in with his sister and father. He seems excited and curious as he passes by other dogs.When he wants to play he will drop to the ground and crouch down as if he is getting ready to launch into play mode! He has the cutest little get ready butt wiggle, Then get ready for fun!!🐈‍⬛🟡He likes to stalk the outside cats. He pretends he is a jungle hunter, then you say "come on let's go" and he moves along. He can be easily redirected.✅He is very smart and responds well to training commands.He knows "sit" and give "paw".✅ He is housetrained. He likes to keep his kennel clean. 🐾 BumbleBee will thrive with daily walks. He is energetic at first. He walks well on training collar and harness lead. He settles down once he's gets potty done and his walker engages with him.He has lower in-house, car riding and hanging out energy. He loves attention and will focus on his person inside more than outside on the walks. 🍔Food will always be high value item for him. He came in very thin. Feeding in separate locations from other dogs is recommended.Understanding that he might have had an abrupt owner previously. Trust takes a minute to build, but once he knows you he loves you. Here are the reviews from the volunteers that know him well:"Bumblebee is sleek toned and full of love. He is one of my favorites to walk. Outwardly affectionate and ready to be close to his people. He seems fine around other dogs and only curious about cats.""I Took Bumblebee out for his first day trip a few months ago and he was so scared and timid. It was hard to get him in the car and he would not eat a thing that I offered him. The next time I took him out he enjoyed the ride, he ate the whole happy meal and enjoyed opening his Christmas presents. He is such a sweet boy. He would be such a good dog for a family.""Dis boy is so handsome. All muscle. Someone cut his ears too short, but he is just the most adorable fun little guy. He's a 2 year old compact pittie. Not too big 54 pounds. Super sweet and loving!""Bumblebee seems to always get overlooked. He may look intimidating bc of his cropped ears but he really is a sweet and loving meatball. He is fun to walk and is down for anything. He has no problem with dressing up and actually seems to enjoys it. He is house trained and likes other dogs."Please consider BumbleBoy for all your best friend needs. He will complete your heart!

Story

Who doesn't love a good NOODLE?! Long, short, flat or ramen they are all so good. We have our very own HSWC slick Noodle. Come and meet her, you will be sure to have an enjoyable visit. Almost as good as a bowl of buttered -you guessed it-noodles. She considers herself more of a potsticker or lil' dumpling with lots of good stuff on the inside. She has a lovely personality but can be distracted when walking outside with all the sights, smells and sounds to check out. When she is in her kennel she wants only to BeWithYou BeWithYou BeWithYou!!!Noodle can be a variety of companions all in one- from an adventurous flavorful hiking partner to a macaroni and cheese snuggler on the sofa. But she's no noodle soup! She is a strong very durable noodle. Like a really thick lasagna. Noodles can have a bad reputation for being unhealthy but not our Noodle-roni! in fact, she is quite the healthy noodle. She suggests quinoa, rice and seaweed noodles to keep your figure looking as good as hers! No need to add high calorie sauce She is sweet enough already! This spicy little spaghetti with meatball dish will entertain you all day long. Her background is another story of LDH...Let down by hoomans. She has been passed around. She could use and good chef trainer owner to help her be her best self. She could use some accents of manners and some basic skill sauce to make this dish perfecto!! She is no egg head noodle she is a fast learner. She will pick things up quicker than you can slurp down a spaghetti noodle. Have we peaked your curiosity about this delightful dish or just made you hungry? Either way come on out and spend some love on this sweet girl. She will be happy to share your Fratelli's take out lunch! ✔️👨‍👩‍👦‍👦🐶She has alot to tell us:She is showing some barking right now at other dogs. Meet and greets are required to determine sibling placement. 🐾She is a strong walker who will need exercise and training. Approx 65 pounds.We are learning more about her every day. Please ask a staff member or volunteer more about this charming Noodle. As she settles in she will show us more about herself. ⚠️She is a dog that should have supervised interaction with cats and dogs in the home for the first two weeks to observe her style of socializing and build positive relationships. Please refer to the two week shut material and 3-3-3 manner of transitioning your new best friend to her new forever home.

Heavenly HeathCliFF is a real dream. Well....once he gets out of the kennel. He is not a fan of strangers staring at him in his kennel. But once he is by your side, it is smooth sailing. He has the most beautiful combination of brown colored Merle patterns and the most soulful eyes that reach right into your heart. He seems to have been a tie out dog based on his pattern of walking to the end of the leash and stopping. He has very polite leash manners and checks in often to give you a smile and sometimes a kiss. He came to us underweight and seems to have had rather irregular feeding sessions in his previous situation. He is conducting interviews for his furever family. Please stop by and meet him. Here are some of his terms and conditions 🤣1. Please feed often. 2. Looking for love♥️💙💖3. Likes to go for walks. Willing to wear outfits if prizes are involved.4. Please give treats....

She is always ready to greet you with a tail wag and a smile. We hope that her luck will finally change for good in a positive way. She will thrive and be an amazing companion in your home.She thinks she is a hooman. She would be an introvert.She can't wait to cuddle up with you and read your favorite book.She has a few commands..."sit" can be uncomfortable for her so she prefers "down".

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Please read the bio of the rescue you are interested in to insure you are a match if you are a match the first step is to complete the online adoption application Unique came to us after her family realized they couldn't care for her any longer. She was born with some birth defects affecting her 2 front legs. We consulted with multiple veterinarians who all agreed there was really nothing that could be done for her. She runs, plays, and does all things any other dog would do. This could affect her down the road with early arthritis. Unique is a sweet girl who loves to romp in the yard playing with her toys. She has gotten along with other dogs her at the rescue but we would prefer if there is another dog in the home it be a male. We would also like to see her have a safe physical fenced in yard where she can play safely. She is now spayed, up to date on rabies and distemper vaccines, microchipped and current on preventatives. She does ok on leash but could use more practice with it. She will need work on her house training in her new home.
