Heart Mountain Rescue

Dog rescue in Exshaw, AB

Heart Mountain Rescue is a 100% volunteer run dog rescue fueled by a great community.

Our mission is to find furever homes for dogs in need, to prevent overpopulation with spay/neuter clinics & to promote the welfare of dogs through education and advocacy.

Our vision is a world where every community has access to vet care and every dog has a home.

We are a foster-based rescue. We do not have a shelter facility, but rather, we depend on our incredible team of fosters who give our dogs a temporary home until they can find a furever home.

Additional adoption info

Adoption Requirements

Applicants must be at least 21 years of age.

All adult members of the household must attend the adoption interview.

We prefer that applicants have lived at their current address for at least three months. This is to make sure that owners have had time to settle into their new surroundings, and provides stability for the new dog who themselves have already undergone multiple changes in a short time.

Because young puppies require intensive training and care, we do not place puppies younger than 8 weeks of age in a home.

Because of potential behaviour/training concerns, we are very cautious when placing young pets in homes with children under the age of five.

If applicants have another animal at home, they must attend the Meet and Greet.

HMR makes no health guarantees or warranties and all vetting costs after adoption date are at the adopter’s own expense.

All adopters should understand that there will be an adjustment period and their pet may experience behavioural and/or health issues related to the change in environment. Adopters should seek professional assistance from a trainer and/or licensed veterinarian if they have concerns about issues related to the adjustment period.

If at any time, for any reason, a HMR adopter decides not to keep their animal, they agree to return the animal back to a HMR representative. Under no circumstance will the adopter surrender a HMR animal to a local shelter or an unauthorized person. In the event of a rehoming, no part of the adoption fee will be reimbursed.
