Story
Meet Bear! Bear is such a beautiful dog with the sweetest golden brown eyes! He is a 1 year old happy, energetic and very smart Border Collie/German Shepherd mix and is on the smaller size, at 40lbs. We pulled Bear from a Kentucky shelter where he was on the Euthanasia list due to overcrowding. Bear is very playful and loving, and is a great balance of cuddles and adventure! He loves going on walks and running and playing in the back yard, but he also loves to snuggle up at the end of the day! He is learning to walk calmly on a leash, and gets very excited for adventures! Bear is in a Foster home with a cat sister and loves playing with her! He is very gentle and is always interested in hanging out with her! Bear may be best with female dogs as he seems to be selective with some males. He can be timid when meeting new dogs on walks, so he would need proper introductions. Bear's breed does require a lot of exercise, so he would need to have a fully fenced yard and would also require regular walks. Bear is young so adequate exercise keeps him from getting bored and helps him be on his best behavior! He may be a little too much for young children as he still jumps and will need to be trained so that he understands not to jump and other basic manners. He would also do best in a family that is very active! Bear is crate trained and potty trained, and is eager to learn new things! If you are interested in meeting Bear, you can fill out an application here and we can schedule a meet and greet! https://www.coopersafeplace.org/application-page Bear's adoption fee is $450 and due on the day of adoption.

Story
Pretty is a pure bred shorthaired border collie, 2 years old. She is strong, gentle, affectionate. She desires to be obedient, listens and learns well, but had not been properly trained and may have some habits in need of correction. She has a strong a strong herding instinct, so she could make a good working farm dog. She is bold, but afraid of loud sudden noises such a thunder, fireworks, and gun shots, from which she seeks shelter or barks with concern at the sky. She would be a wonderful companion or family pet regardless. She has lived outside full time with her sister from the same litter, Joy, with access to five acres on which they happily roam and play. She gets along well with our four boys, ages 9–15, as well neighboring kids and adults. She has no fear of strangers and is friendly with everyone. Ideally, a new home would offer lots of outdoor time and space like she is accustomed to. She could live indoors with outside time, but may not be compatible with smaller pets because of her strong prey drive, and will need to be house trained. She is familiar with basic commands such as her name, come, sit, lie down, wait, and thank you (break word), yet she will need reinforcement training. Her sister Joy is also up for adoption, but because they have littermate aggression tendencies, Regina has suggested re-homing them separately.

Story
Space is a 9 month old medium size dog. She loves other dogs and has done well with cats. Space needs a special adopter that will give her time to realize people aren’t so scary. She has made a TON of progress at her foster home but is still very timid at times. She gets SO excited to see you after work but still only wants to be pet on her own terms. She will do best in a home with no children, another dog to help build her confidence, and her own yard, as she is not leash trained. She is very fearful of the leash, leading us to believe she may have had a traumatic experience involving a leash before coming to HART. This dog absolutely loves to be comfy. All she wants is a comfortable bed or to curl up by your feet on the couch. If you’re looking for a playmate for your dog that does not beg for constant attention or a friend to keep your dog busy while you’re at work, Space could be a great choice for you. If interested in meeting Space please fill out an application at www.rescueahart.org!

Story
With heavy hearts we need to find a new home for Hazel. We adopted her from Sicsa 3 years ago at 8 weeks old, after a family friend fostered her mom and litter of puppies. She is a sweetie - great with kids, cats, people she knows. Keeps us laughing with her energy and personality. She absolutely loves car rides, walks, playing tug of war and snuggling. She does has anxiety takes medication 2x a day. It seems to take the edge off for her. And she is very territorial. She loves her people and doesn't want anyone to hurt them. Sadly, that's the reason we now need to find her a new home. She has bitten strangers twice and we just don't think we are the right environment for her to stay safe and to keep others safe around her. She would do best with a large privacy fence or in a rural setting where she is not surprised by strangers coming into her yard very often. She has had obedience training, is treat motivated and obeys basic commands. House and crate trained as well!
