Meet Pepper & Princess – A Beautiful Boxer Duo 💕 Pepper and her daughter Princess are a bonded pair of Boxers with hearts as big as their smiles. They came into our rescue several months ago after their owner experienced life changes and could no longer care for them. When they arrived, both girls were underweight and had never received proper veterinary care. They were heartworm positive and neither had been spayed.

Story
Meet Pepper & Princess – A Beautiful Boxer Duo 💕 Pepper and her daughter Princess are a bonded pair of Boxers with hearts as big as their smiles. They came into our rescue several months ago after their owner experienced life changes and could no longer care for them. When they arrived, both girls were underweight and had never received proper veterinary care. They were heartworm positive and neither had been spayed. Thanks to the love and dedication of our rescue, Pepper and Princess are now fully up to date on vaccines and have successfully completed heartworm treatment. They’ve come such a long way and are healthier, happier, and ready for their next chapter. Personality-wise, these two are absolute gems. They are incredibly sweet, gentle, and polite — no jumping here! They do wonderfully with other dogs, puppies, and even cats. Their calm, loving nature makes them a joy to be around. Pepper and Princess are crate trained and stay in their crates when left home alone. Their crates are their cozy, safe spaces, and they settle in without any issues. These girls would thrive in a home where they can truly be part of the family — lounging nearby, soaking up love, and enjoying life together. Because of their close bond, it would be a dream come true for them to be adopted together, though the most important thing is finding them a loving, stable home. If you’re looking for loyal companions with gentle hearts and a touching story of resilience, Pepper and Princess may be the perfect match for you. If you are interested in these two girls, please message us and we will send you an application. They are being fostered in MS but included in your adoption fee is transport to a location near you by Rescue Riders Pet Transport, the most animal friendly transport on the road!

However, please keep in mind that we rarely know the genetic background of the animals we rescue and, as such, we cannot guarantee the exact breed combinations found within this dog. Therefore, we do not know his/her actual genetic makeup. Just know that this dog is probably a variety of several different breeds that have combined to create one very amazing and unique animal.

Story
Frank the Tank is at our shelter. Please submit an application from our website or just come in to meet him during open hours! Scroll through his photos to see his cute video content! Frank the Tank was found outdoors in rural Kentucky and was brought to a shelter there. Shelters in rural areas don't get a lot of adopters, so he remained in the shelter for 10 months. Fortunately, an animal control officer in the area recognized how special he was, so he landed in a great foster home with a friend of theirs. Frank's foster home reported he was great with their little kids and resident dogs and had no complaints at all. He does well in the crate, only had one accident the first day, and learned the doggy door within hours! He also loves car rides. He hasn't been at Heartland long, but we are already smitten with his nubby tail that constantly wags and his unsinkable exuberance for life. Some who are familiar with Boxers have told us he has the classic "Boxer" personality: exuberant, excited, happy, and playful. Frank the Tank is the most goofy little weirdo! He has huge eyes that always look surprised, and he greets all creatures with the same welcoming joy. He never turns down a playdate, a snuggle, or a soft couch to hang out on. Frank is a great fit for a family, single person, or couple who want to give him the training, positive reinforcement, and love he's been waiting so long for. He hasn't lost hope, come in and see if Frank the Tank is the country boy you've been missing! Frank the Tank's adoption fee is $300.00. This animal is neutered and up to date on core vaccines. Frank the Tank is Heartworm positive and is undergoing treatment with us. Heartland will cover the cost of treatment until he is Heartworm negative. Heartworm is not contagious to other dogs or people; it is a mosquito-borne disease. It is both preventable and curable! Once cured, there are no long term health effects associated with having Heartworm. Frank the Tank is on a 28 day course of antibiotics, after which he will receive three injections to treat his Heartworm, all to take place at our shelter with our veterinarian. Injection 1: 3/17/26 Injection 2: 4/14/26 Injection 3: 4/15/26 That will complete the treatment, but he will need a quick retest at the adopter's vet 9 months post-treatment to make sure that he is Heartworm-free.
