Hearts for Hounds

Dog rescue in Virginia Beach, VA

We are located in the Virginia Beach area of Virginia. We are hound lovers at heart and recognize the plight of the hounds in the southern states. In southern shelters there are many thrown away hunting dogs and outside dogs that probably have never known life in a house or part of a family. Every dog should know what it is like to be a beloved pet in a family's home. We aim to show as many dogs as possible what it is like to live in a warm, loving home.
