My story

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

Meet Ernest, the 90% head and neck superstar! This dashing bulldog mix is ready to bring some serious charm into your life. Ernest may tip the scales at a hefty 82 pounds, but don't let that fool you—he's just a big softie at heart! This cool dude is all about the chill vibes; you'll often find him lounging on the couch, dreaming of belly rubs and tasty snacks. Ernest is a certified couch potato who enjoys slow meandering walks and short bursts of playtime. He's a pro at commands like sit, touch, leave it, and come, especially if there's a treat involved! His tail is in a perpetual state of wagging, and he'll stick to your side like glue if there's a snack on offer. With Ernest by your side, every day is an adventure filled with laughter and love. Don't miss out on the chance to welcome this laid-back legend into your home—Ernest is ready to be your loyal companion through thick and thin! Ernest is neutered and up to date on shots. Get ready to experience life through the eyes of a dog who knows how to take it easy. His adoption fee is $250.  To adopt Ernest apply at  www.rescueofhope.com/adoption-application

Their adoption process

1.

Home Check

Additional adoption info

1. The first step is completing our application at www.rescueofhope.com.

2. If your application is approved, you will be contacted to schedule a home visit interview. We will bring the dog over for a visit and conduct and interview with you.

3. Then we will both take a day to consider whether it is the right home for the dog.

4. If everyone is in agreement, the adoption will take place and you will sign an adoption contract and commit to giving our rescue dog a forever home.

We are a non-profit organization. Our adoption fees are considered a donation to the rescue and they range from $150-$350. Our fees help us cover our dog's vet care, food, supplies and other expenses to keep the rescue running. All dogs must be spayed/neutered, micro-chipped, tested for heartworms, vaccinated and wormed as appropriate for age and checked for fleas prior to or within 30 days of adoption.

Note: There are no refunds on adoption fees. Adoption fees are considered a donation to the rescue and are tax decuctible.

More about this rescue

Hearts of Hope's mission is to save homeless unwanted dogs. Pet overpopulation is a global crisis. Our local animal shelters are full of wonderful dogs that just need more time and help finding the right home. Many of our dogs come from these local kill shelters and others come from urgent rescue situations spanning as far as Beirut, Lebanon. Hearts of Hope strives to help as many dogs as possible. If we are able, we will help. We know we can't save them all, but it matters to the ones we can save.

Hearts of Hope Dog Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dog rescue located in Grand Rapids, MI and Midland,MI. It was founded by Director, Janelle McFarlane November 23, 2011. Our rescue dogs are provided with the best possible vet care, a safe place to stay and the love they deserve. We do not have a shelter facility. Our volunteer foster homes take these wonderful dogs into their homes until we find their forever families. Our organization is devoted to helping dogs in need and works diligently to find them loving forever homes where they can happily live out the rest of their lives.
