Story
Ansel is an adorable fella - a perfect size, housetrained, with impeccable leash manners. With Ansel you have hit the trifecta! Ansel welcomes the company of other dogs and actually gains his confidence from being around other dogs. So, a home with another dog, while not required, would be a bonus. Ansel can be a bit shy around new people but, with some time and patience, he will warm up and the end result will likely be an abundance of hugs and kisses. Because he tends to bond to people, with whom he finds comfort, it is important that all members of the household offer Ansel love and patience so that his affection can be shared equally amongst all. Ansel's favorite hobbies including chewing on hard toys, playing with balls, going for walks, and snuggling on the couch. Hey that should be pretty easy to accommodate! So, if you are interested in meeting this sweet boy, HART would welcome the opportunity to conduct introductions. Just say the word. Thank you for your interest in Ansel! Please visit www.hart90.org/petdetail.aspx?ID=17414 to get the most up-to-date and accurate information on this pet, to email the contact person listed for more information and how to meet Ansel, or to submit an online application. HART adopts to the local DC/VA/MD metro area only. Visit our website for more information about our adoption process.

Courtesy Post: Owner Surrender/Rehoming- Fairfax, VA Gus is an 4 year old Australian Shepherd and weighs 40 lbs. He is neutered, microchipped, up to date on shots, and on heartworm prevention. Gus is nervous around strangers! No children or dogs, due to his reactivity! He hasn’t been tested around cats. Several years ago, Gus escaped from the yard while someone else was watching him. A stranger found him and went to grab his collar, which caused Gus to bite the stranger. Gus is currently on gabapentin, clonidine, and Sertaline for his reactivity. His owner says that when he isn’t triggered, he is loving, loyal, smart, playful, and energetic! The owner is surrendering him because he doesn’t do well with their young children. If you think you can provide a great home for Gus, please contact the owner listed below. There is a $150 rehoming fee to assure good folks with good intentions. This fee will be donated to Australian Shepherds Furever for their assistance in placing Gus. Owner’s Contact Information: Devin at elliott.family.8823@gmail.com

Story
Rosie was a stray in South Carolina who was picked up by a good samaritan along with two other dogs.  She held on to them as long as she could, but already having two dogs of her own, she was unable to keep them.  The shelter picked them all up and quickly realized that Rosie was pregnant.  They were able to put Rosie in a foster home, and they guessed that she would deliver her puppies within two weeks. They were right.  Rosie had 10 puppies, but unfortunately one of them didn't survive.  Poor Rosie worked so hard to feed her babies as much as she could, but it took a toll on her body.  She was very thin, and eventually unable to feed them any more.  Luckily, the pups began to eat mush and were able to survive.  The foster had to return Rosie and her babies to the shelter, because she was pregnant herself, and couldn't care for a mom and all those babies.  The shelter reached out to the rescue community for help, and two wonderful AFH foster moms stepped in to help. One offered to foster the puppies, and the other one offered to foster Rosie. Then, another awesome volunteer, volunteered to drive 500 miles round trip to pick up the whole family.  The stars aligned for this pregnant dog, because had the first foster not taken Rosie in, she would have given birth in an outdoor kennel with dirt floors.  The shelter's kennel building had been torn down and was being rebuilt.  It just opened up the week Rosie came in.  This rescue just might be a Christmas miracle.Rosie is a very sweet girl. She loves people and is great with other dogs. Rosie would make a great addition to any family.Accuracy is not guaranteed; however, information provided is accurate to the best of our knowledge.  For more information on the pet, please send an email to info@aforeverhome.org December 16, 2024, 7:47 pm
