Story
Do you want a small dog companion but NOT a lap dog? Do you want a dog who will run from you rather than towards you? Do you want a dog who prefers the company of other dogs over you? Well then I have got the perfect dog for you!! Please give a warm welcome to Clementine! In all seriousness, she is an adorable little girl. Clementine came to Hart in June 2021 and has been in the same foster home ever since. She with so many others was rescued from a hoarding situation in Tennessee. To this day, she still exhibits nervousness around people. For this reason, she is looking for a very special adopter. The adopter will need to be very patient with her and give her ample time to show her brand of affection. While she still runs from me if I try to approach her to pet her, she does make her way over to me at bedtime for lovings. She will even sleep in bed with me and give me some sweet kisses. But when it’s time to get up, she darts away again. I truly can’t explain it but I have learned to accept it. Clementine does great with her doggy friends. She is most comfortable with other dogs. The ideal adopter will have another dog in the home that will groom and “mother” her. She loves having a dog around that she can curl up with!! Also, since she is hard to catch, a fenced in yard would be best for her. Due to the fact that Clementine can be a challenge to catch and she does not come when called, any meet/greets will have to be done at the adopter’s home and only within 25 miles of the Northern Kentucky area. PS Guard your socks. She loves socks (haha)

Story
Hi, I am Rosie and I am super shy. I am about 6 years old, have been with HART since June 2021 and am looking for a home to call my own. I came from a hoarding situation where over 150 doggies just like me were living together in a small house. My ideal space will either be with one of my friends (King is extra snuggly) or in a home with a dog about my size to hang around. I am a pretty easy going gal and am not territorial about my food, toys or treats. I don't mind cats but a doggie friend is a must for me. I am happiest if I get to roam around a yard with a fence as I have rarely been on a leash and just don't like it. I think I could learn to love humans and their attention but I will need time and patience as I am just learning what it is like to be loved. Think you might be the family for me? Please fill out an adoption application NOW at rescueahart.org as I have been waiting way too long for a place to call my own!

Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org ✨🐾 Meet Paisley — A Tiny Soul Learning How Beautiful Life Can Be 🐾✨ Female • 4 Months Old • 7 lbs Some puppies bounce into the world without a care… and some, like Paisley, take a quieter, braver path — learning step by step that the world can be soft, kind, and full of love. 💛 When Paisley first arrived from a hoarding situation, she was so scared she tucked herself away, unsure of everything around her. No gentle pets, no kind words, no cuddles… just a world she didn’t yet understand. But oh… how things are changing. ✨ This sweet little girl is blossoming beautifully. She’s started to seek out affection, leaning into gentle pets and soaking up every kind word like they’re the most precious thing she’s ever known (because to her, they are). She’s discovering the joys of being a puppy — slowly but surely: • Playing with her sister and toys • Following her person from room to room (your tiny, adorable shadow) • Exploring her surroundings with growing curiosity • Figuring out that treats are, in fact… amazing (Though she gives them a cautious sniff and a little taste lick first — quality control is very important 😄) She’s especially bonded to her twin sister, Payton and finds comfort in having a buddy when things feel a little overwhelming. Paisley would truly thrive in a home with a confident, friendly canine sibling to help guide her and remind her that everything is okay. She’s also met a kitty in her foster home and handled it like a little lady — curious but respectful, which is quite impressive for such a young pup. Because she’s still learning and gaining confidence, Paisley will need a home that moves at her pace — patient, gentle, and full of understanding. Big new things can still feel a little scary, but with time, she continues to grow braver every day. And let’s not forget… her beautiful, shiny coat that practically sparkles in the sunlight. Seriously, you might need sunglasses — she shines that bright. 😎 Paisley isn’t just learning how to be a puppy… she’s learning how to trust, how to love, and how to feel safe. And when she gives you that trust? It’s something truly special. 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org and give Paisley the loving home she deserves — and watch her continue to bloom into the happy, confident girl she was always meant to be. 🐾💛

Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 🐾💛 Meet Gordo — 8 Pounds of Love, Loyalty, and Lap-Warming Perfection 💛🐾 Gordo has been waiting… and waiting… and we honestly don’t understand how this little guy is still looking for his forever home. At just 3 years old and 8 pounds, Gordo is living proof that the very best things come in the tiniest, snuggliest packages. This sweet Chihuahua mix is equal parts lap warmer, cuddle champion, and loyal sidekick. He adores being close to his person and will happily follow you from room to room like a tiny, devoted shadow. If you’ve ever wanted a dog who truly wants to be with you — not just near you — Gordo is your guy. He does have a soft spot for the ladies (Gentlemen, don’t worry—he’ll accept you too, but he’s a mama’s boy at heart!) and would thrive in a calm, quiet home. He’d also be thrilled to have a small doggie friend to sunbathe with and share naps. Kids aren’t really his vibe, but cozy couches and peaceful routines? Absolutely. 💊 A little extra love note about Gordo: Gordo is considered special needs due to occasional seizures, which are well managed with daily medication (Levetiracetam and Phenobarbital - about $50 every two months). He takes his meds like a champ and doesn’t let it slow him down one bit. He’ll also need Midazolam on hand, just in case he does have a seizure — though thankfully, his meds are working very well and he rarely has one. Now for the fun stuff… 🐶 Gordo’s Favorite Things: • Being used as a living neck pillow • Sunbathing like a tiny beach bum • Napping with doggie friends • Shamelessly begging for watermelon 🍉 • Sitting in your lap… always • Staring down the vacuum like a brave little warrior He’s house trained, crate trained, and happily trots into his crate at mealtime like the good boy he is. Gordo is gentle, affectionate, and incredibly loving — the kind of dog who bonds deeply and gives his whole heart once he feels safe. This little guy has been through a lot in his short life, but he hasn’t let it dim his sweetness or his desire to love. He’s just waiting for someone to see how special he truly is and give him the calm, loving home he deserves. 💛 If you’re looking for a devoted companion, a constant cuddle buddy, and a tiny soul who will adore you endlessly — Gordo is ready to wiggle into your heart and home! Apply today at haydudeequine.org and give this sweet boy the forever home he’s been waiting for. 💖

Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org ☕🐾 Meet Mocha — 20 Pounds of Pure Cuteness with a Lil Extra Foam! 🐾☕ Mocha is a 4-year-old Chug (that’s Chihuahua + Pug for those new to designer deliciousness) and she is serving looks, love, and just a tiny bit of extra fluff. At around 20 lbs, Mocha is the perfect “armful of dog” size — compact enough for lap duty, sturdy enough for adventures, and currently rocking what we like to call her “well-loved marshmallow phase.” Could she stand to shed a few pounds? Sure. But honestly, she wears it well. Think cuddly latte, not plain black coffee. Let’s talk personality — because this girl is a STAR. Mocha loves: • Dogs ✔ • Kids ✔ • Cats ✔ • Adults ✔ • Basically anyone with a pulse ✔ She has never met a stranger — only future best friends. Her greeting style includes enthusiastic wiggles, soulful eyes, and a face that looks like it was handcrafted by the Cute Committee. And those looks? Oh. My. Goodness. - Big expressive eyes. - Adorable squishy face. - The most boopable little nose. - And expressions that range from “I love you forever” to “I heard the treat bag crinkle from three rooms away.” Mocha is sweet, affectionate, and full of charm. She’s the type who will happily follow you around the house just to supervise your activities. Folding laundry? She’ll monitor. Cooking dinner? She’ll taste-test...willingly. Watching TV? She’s already in your lap. She’s past the puppy chaos stage and has fully entered her “professional companion” era. No wild zoomie tornadoes — just steady, loving, loyal goodness with occasional bursts of happy wiggles. Her ideal home? One that appreciates: • Snuggles on demand • A built-in best friend • Daily walks (doctor’s orders — bikini season is coming 😉) • A dog who thinks you are the center of the universe Mocha isn’t just adorable — she’s the whole package. Sweet, social, cuddly, and ridiculously good-looking. If you’re looking for a loving little shadow who will brighten your days, warm your lap, and possibly share your snacks (she will absolutely try), Mocha is ready to stir up your life in the very best way. 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org and bring home this sweet little latte of love ☕💛🐾
