Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet the infamous Houdini! If you haven’t seen his rescue video, check it out! It is by far one of the most exciting rescue videos out there. Now that we’ve got this little guy in our hands, we’ve learned that he is first and foremost a magician. It goes like this, you meet him, he locks eyes with you, gives you a kiss, crawls up on your lap and hocus pocus he has stolen your heart! Houdini is wicked smart and loves to learn new tricks. This 2 ½ year old learned to high five for his supper in mere seconds. Houdini weighs in at about 12 pounds and is learning to use a leash. Since Houdini lived as a stray for a very long time, he is still a serious flight risk. He needs another dog to be his buddy and to show him just how amazing it is to be a loved part of a family. A very secure yard with a fence a minimum of 6 feet is also necessary. Houdini is an absolutely fantastic dog but because of his past he needs a very serious adopter who will be able to convince this fella that life of the streets is the way to live and prosper.
If you're interested in adopting this pet please fill out our matchmaking questionnaire (www.rescuefromthehart.org). We are volunteer based and will do our best to get back to you within 72 hours. Please do not call as our phone is intended for emergencies only. If we feel that one of our dogs is a good match we will set up a private meet and greet We do not have a physical location where you can come and meet all the dogs at once, so meet and greets may take a little time to coordinate. Our requested adoption donation is $300 and all adopters are required to fill out an adoption agreement.
