My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Jake is a handsome, 17lb, 4 yr old Schipperke (possibly mix). If you know Schipperkes, Jake will feel very familiar to you. This little guy is smart and inquisitive; at the same time, he wants to please. Jake is content to hang out with you, beside you and/or on your lap. 

Jake is an excellent walking partner who can walk up to five or six miles daily. He LOVES his routine of daily morning walks, regardless of the weather. Jake enjoys trail adventures as much as walks in the park and on the greenway, so he would also make a good companion for a runner and/or hiker. Jake is a true Schipperke who is busy and seldom walks when he can trot or scamper.

Jake could be an only dog or share his home with another dog his size.  He has some tendencies toward guarding his toys and food around other dogs in the home, so this would require some monitoring/management. 

The adoption range for this dog is limited to NC, SC, VA  or East TN. If you are interested in adopting this dog, contact h2hadoptions@gmail.com.

We require an all-adult home (no young children) with a securely fenced yard attached to the home, 5 ft or higher with NO gaps larger than 2.5 inches.  An invisible fence, enclosed patio or terrace, temporary fencing or community shared fencing are NOT considered secure fencing. No exceptions.

There is an application process and adoption fee. We are an all-volunteer organization, and in addition to saving dogs, we have other responsibilities, so we appreciate your patience and understanding during this process. Response time can take up to 5 business.

Please inquire only if you are willing to come to Greensboro, North Carolina to meet the dog after we schedule your home visit. We do not ship dogs or put them on transports.

Veterinary Care: All Hart-2-Heart Rescue foster dogs are spayed/neutered, current on heartworm prevention, parvo/distemper, bordetella, and rabies vaccines and are professionally groomed. As needed, our foster dogs have teeth cleanings, extractions, bloodwork and other diagnostic testing.

Adoption Fee: $400

More about this rescue

Hart-2-Heart Rescue is a non-profit organization formed to rescue small mixed-breed and purebred dogs who would otherwise fall between the cracks. Our focus is to provide a happy future for our foster dogs, to guarantee the care and support needed to ensure their full health of both mind and body. Everything we do is driven by the passionate belief that we can improve life for the dogs in our care regardless of their background, whether they are strays, abandoned, from puppy mills or shelters, or victims of unavoidable life circumstances.

Hart-2-Heart Rescue was established by co-founders Jennifer Hart and Judy Allen, long-time friends whose paths converged in the 1990’s. With complimentary skill sets and years of pet ownership, breed knowledge, training and behavioral expertise, and rescue experience, they joined forces to develop the model of home-fostered dogs. Hart-2-Heart Rescue was born of a dream and a sense of social responsibility to ensure that the foster dogs in our care are provided with necessary medical, social and life skills that will enable them to develop to their full potential.

Joined by a group of dedicated volunteers, Hart-2-Heart’s goal is to successfully match each dog with the right family as well as to match each family with the right dog. Our volunteers give freely of their time, resources and love to provide an in-home experience for each of our foster dogs. Our rescues live as an integrated member of our families in our homes, where they’re taught the skills and joys of daily living. We ensure that adoptions are for life by determining a suitable match and by providing on-going support to adoptive families.

Hart-2-Heart Rescue is an all-volunteer charitable 501(c)(3) non-profit organization located in Greensboro, North Carolina. We do not have a physical shelter because our adoptable dogs live in foster homes. Our dream is to help dogs find the right home and bring joy to the people who adopt them; our expertise is in doing so.
