My story

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

Meet Leo, a handsome, 70-pound powerhouse with a heart of gold! This beefcake is a goofy, fun-loving guy who's full of life and a playful spirit. He enjoys occasionally playing a dog friend or two but he would prefer to keep the toy basket to himself! . Leo is gentle with children, making him a great fit for a variety of homes.
This big, muscular boy is both crate and house-trained. After a few initial zoomies, he walks well on a leash and loves to play fetch. A true water dog at heart, he's happiest splashing around in a kiddie pool, playing in a sprinkler, or taking a dip in any body of water he can find.
After a good play session, Leo is all about the couch cuddles and will happily curl up next to you for some quality snuggle time. Whether you're looking for an active dog to keep up with you or a loyal companion to cuddle up with, Leo is ready to bring endless joy and goofy charm into your life. His adoption fee is $250.

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.
