My story

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

Young, smart, buffed Ned 🧡 has blossomed in his stable, consistent environment. He is finally ready for a family of his own. His life began as a fearful stray and he's transitioned into a loyal, happy friend. He's a pack pup and prefers the company of dogs and to sleep with his trusted human. He loves his 70lb female foster sister.
Approx. 2-3yrs old, neutered, UTD on shots, microchipped, comes when called, takes treats softly, rides in a car well, good with baths, great on leash, uses a dog door, great house manners. His favorite part of the day is running off leash in the forest. He learned to swim a few months ago. He climbs mountains, leaps over logs and gallops through fields. He will bond if you take him on adventures. He is NOT a lap dog.
Ned needs a patient human with no small children, an adventure lover and another dog (calm energy/well exercised) willing to welcome a skittish little dude with patience.
If you have questions or would like to meet Ned, please fill out an application at hopeshavenfriends.org and his foster mom will make contact.
This guy is fantastic and deserves to have the best adventures, lots of love and a safe place to call home. Ned is one of the many fosters that found safety with Hopes Haven apply at www.hopeshavenfriends.org

More about this rescue

Hopes Haven began as a dream. A televised news story about a case of obscene animal abuse broke our hearts. Video from the scene taken after authorities seized possession of the animals revealed several deceased and emaciated dogs. Of the dogs still alive, only two were determined to have any chance of survival. Marsha called the humane society where the dogs had been taken and asked if a terribly emaciated Doberman that was on the newscast could be held for her to adopt if she survived. The care givers at the shelter named the Doberman Hope. Hope's life had been one of being chained inside of a barn and forced to have litter after litter of puppies, all while rarely seeing the light of day. Although Hope never did fully recover, she did indeed survive and lived with us for almost thirteen months before she died. Hopes Haven is a tribute to her and to all innocent dogs that have had their trust betrayed by unworthy guardians.

We give hope to those that have no place else to go. The old, infirm, and ill will always have a place to go as long as Hopes Haven exists.

We also specialize in northern breed rescue such as Huskies and Malamutes.
