My story

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

Meet Wigwam! This 1 year old boy is sweet as can be despite being removed from a less than loving situation. When he came to Hero, he was in desperate need of a shave and there was quite a handsome dog under all that matting! He can be a little nervous at times but his foster family thinks he will warm up quickly with love, patience, and training. He does not like being confined when his foster family goes out due to his past, but does well in the home when there is nothing left out that could get him in trouble. He bonds deeply with people- especially kids! He would be better suited towards older children, as they make him so excited that he can’t help but give them hugs and kisses. He is still a little unsure of male dogs but does not display any aggression to the 2 other dogs in his foster family. Don’t let his small size fool you, he can move! He loves playing fetch and running through the yard. He would love a fenced in yard in his forever home but would do well with any family willing to give him lots of play time.

Thank you for your interest in one of our Hero Babies! Before inquiring, we thought it was important to share a few of our policies.

Your Current Pets - We do require that your current dogs and cats are current on vaccines and spayed/neutered.

Adoptions - We do not have a shelter and are a foster-home based organization. We do require that you have an approved adoption application to schedule a meet and greet. You can fill out an adoption application on our website, www.herorescue.org/adopt. Once your application is approved it will be sent to the foster family that is currently caring for the dog. They will be able to provide information on likes, dislikes, personality, etc. They will also schedule a time for you to meet the dog. We do require a home visit prior to adoption.

Inquiries - If you would like more information on any dogs in the rescue, please email us at info@herorescue.org.
