Story
Meet Maple! This pretty girl originally came to our rescue in 2020 when we rescued her from a Riverside Shelter. She is now 6 years old. It was immediately apparent that Maple did not come from ideal circumstances. She was extremely fearful of humans. When approached she would run, yelp, and scream to try to avoid being touched. She had stress patching and wouldn’t eat dog food out of a bowl, however, she knows exactly what people's food is. She was placed with a great foster that worked with her on trusting people. Slowly she began to gain confidence and progress into such a good girl. Once she had some progression and was easier to work with Maple was adopted. We were so happy that she had a home that could accommodate her. Through the years of regular pictures and videos, she seemed to be living her best life with her family. She was going on trails with horses, camping, swimming in her pool, and keeping all the kids and dogs quiet and in line at her house. She grew to be a very independent dog but seems to dislike loud noises, people arguing or anyone touching her without her permission. Unfortunately, due to extremely unforeseen circumstances, Maple ended up at the Riverside Shelter at the end of October 2023. We pulled her as soon as the shelter would allow us to but it was still over a week and Maple became stressed and scared again. Maple was taken in by a new foster home to help her decompress and gain trust again. Although the shelter was hard on her she was definitely showing that she had progressed greatly throughout the years. Her current foster has allowed her to become independent, trusting, and even playful and loving at times with her person. She is still not a fan of being touched without permission but will let you know when she wants pets. Being picked up is still hard but with a blanket and some patience, it can be done. She loves to sit right next to you once you have settled on the couch or in bed. She can co-exist with other dogs and probably cats. We recommend a home with children 12 or older. Due to past trauma, she does not like leashes, collars, and harnesses, and therefore doesn’t go on walks. She enjoys her space, her treats, her blankets, and her person. Once she finds her person she will love and protect them for the rest of her life. She is currently using potty pads inside but will go outside, is crate trained and enjoys the sunlight and following her person around. If you would like to learn more about Maple to foster or adopt please email us at heartandhomerescueorg@gmail.com.

Eye enucleation done 12/15/25. Neutered, microchipped, vaccinated. Well behaved. Good either way other dogs, and best of all he is house trained!! LOVES to go on leashed walks and does wonderfully on a leash. Very sweet and loves hanging out on your lap. Initially a smidge shy being pet on the head (missing an eye) but totally ok with being held and handled once you let him sniff your hand. Hes a winner for sure! ******************************************************************************** STANDARD RESCUES INFORMATION DISCLAIMER: PLEASE NO CALLS OR TEXTS, AS WE ARE ALL VOLUNTEERS.

Story
Meet Belly 🐾 Belly is a 9-year-old Chihuahua–Australian Shepherd mix with one striking blue eye that perfectly reflects how unique she is. She’s a sensitive, loyal rescue who thrives on human companionship and forms deep bonds with her people. She can be anxious in new situations and may be reserved at first, but with time, patience, and a calm environment, she truly opens up. Once she feels safe, she is incredibly loving, devoted, and happiest simply being near her person. Belly would do best in an adult-only home, as she is not comfortable around children, which is why we are lovingly seeking a new home for her. She can warm up to some dogs but has a strong, alpha personality and would do best with an experienced owner who understands dog dynamics—either as an only pet or with the right canine companion. Though she’s 9 years old, she still has so much love to give and plenty of affection to share. She’s looking for a calm, patient home where she can feel secure

Story
We adopted/rescued Tija in 2020 my daughter felt I needed another doggo to fill the huge void I had, since I had to let my fur-son of 18yrs cross that rainbow bridge one month prior! I originally posted I’d prefer Tija & my mom’s doggo, Tommy, to be adopted out as a bonded pair BUT I understand not everyone can take both & also understand they may be separated! Tija is a dominant doggo, always up for a good time, loves to run & play, loves walks, loves to be right by your side snuggled up!! Tija gets along with just about every one & every thing! Tija lived with a cat the whole time we had her! Tija was around my newborn granddaughter(2021) her whole time with us, she protected my granddaughter to this day, her bff! 🥹😭 Tija is great with babies to pre-teens! Tija is a very loyal, sweet, goofy, derpy companion…this hurts me to do but we have moved & no pets allowed! 😭🥹 If you know of anyone that wants a lapdog, Tommy was my mamas & he could be yours too!! 🥹😭💔💔

These pups are in La Puente, California too!
