Story
Steve was discovered outside of the local shelter when the employees arrived for work. In was in the bottom of a tall laundry basket, surrounded by literal trash. Steve was nothing but skin and bones. When the shelter checked the security tapes, they discovered that at 4:23a.m. a pick-up truck pulled up and 3 men got out and left Steve and the laundry basket at the front door. Because of his condition, the initial thought was humane euthanasia would be the kindest option to end his suffering. But when Steve heard all the commotion around him and realized they were talking about him, when he realized that THESE people cared about him, he raised his head up as if to say, "I'm still here". Steve has been seen by a vet and he is extremely malnourished and neglected. He is about 4-6 pounds under weight and when he was found his toenails were so long, they were curled under his feet and growing into his pads. He has a long road ahead of him to recovery but every day he is getting stronger. Keep checking back for updates. Learn more about me and fill out an online adoption application on the From the Heart Rescue website at: www.fthar.org. My requested adoption donation includes my spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations and medical care to date, microchip implantation and registration, collar, leash, and ID tag. If Im not exactly what you want, please visit my other friends in rescue at From The Heart Rescue on our website at www.fthar.org.

Story
Triton found himself as a stray at Animal Services. With his awkward walk and terrible matting, he caught the eye of one of our rescue partners who took him home and got him cleaned up. She posted him on her page where we saw him and wanted to see if we could help him. Turns out Triton's funny walk is from a birth defect. Both of his femurs are curved which then causes his knees to turn outward. While he gets around well, he does walk on his feet, because of the wear and tear on his knees he already has arthritis. So, he is on daily anti-inflammatories for that. Somewhere down the road, he may need to use a wheelchair but for now and the foreseeable future, Triton is plenty mobile on his own. Of course, walks are not his thing, but belly rubs are what he craves. Triton likes to be with his people. He is a mellow dog with small bursts of excitement when you play with him. Dinner is his absolute favorite time of day. While Triton loves to play with toys, he also likes to eat them. So, he cannot have any stuffies. But he likes a good chew bone just as much. Do you have a special place in your heart for Triton? Learn more about me and fill out an online adoption application on the From the Heart Rescue website at: www.fthar.org.

Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
We found River at 5 1/2 weeks old with her litter. She needed medical attention, so we took her in and re-homed the others in the litter at 8 weeks. Once her medical situation was complete, we got her up to date on shots and just held onto her. She is now spayed, UTD on vaccinations and microchipped (information will be transferred over with her). After about a year, I am looking into re-homing her due to energy level and necessity. We are not only in the process of moving to a 2 dog facility, but I am looking at having surgery in the fall (recovery period Is approx 6 months) and she will not be able to go out as much. She's a high energy dog who needs to be ran, played fetch or have another dog to play with. She will play fetch for hours if she can find someone who will play with her. It's unknown if she is good with kids, she does jump and that would need to be worked on. She's never had any contact with cats so that unknown as well, though I would be very careful with meet and greets, she is very high energy and may scare cats. She is good with other dogs once she gets to know them, though may annoy some older dogs due to energy level. Meet and Greet will be necessary and can be arranged. She is kennel trained and potty trained, she loves to be outside but is a slight escape artist. (Does not jump walls, but dug under our fence with another stray who we were fostering). She is a huge cuddle monster and craves attention. Though she will chew on bones and toys if you need time, or can take a "nap" in her kennel when you need space. We've done the best we could with her due to time restraints and her slight shepherd stubbornness. She would do great with someone who has some time to work with her and regular walks/runs/playtime. She will come with her kennel, her harness, her leash and her collar. I'll also transfer all pertaining paperwork and information for the vet we have used for any information in the future.
