Story
We are looking for a loving home for our sweet, playful Daisy. Daisy is a 5 year-old female Wheaton Terrier that we’ve had since she was a puppy. She’s house trained and crate trained. She’s good with kids. We love her dearly, but our older dog has been increasingly aggressive towards her and we need to find her a safer home. Ideally, this would be a home without any other dogs. Daisy is about 32 lbs, does not shed, and is in wonderful physical shape. She’s cute, funny, and loves to play with toys. We will miss her tremendously , but she deserves the best home we can find her.

Steve is wonderful and sweet! He needs room to run and he kills chickens so we can’t keep him. We love Steve so much but he keeps getting in trouble with other people’s animals so we want to find a safe home for him.

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!

Trenton

English Pointer

Story
Meet Trenton! This good boy is the whole package! He is a mixed breed, best guess English pointer/boxer mix, and no one breed is evident. He is 2-year-old medium sized (55 pound) love bug who is gentle and adores kids. He is house trained. It does not appear he has been taught basic commands, but he should be a quick learner as he learned the doggy door ropes in a single day. The crate is not his favorite. He will go in when bribed with delicious treats and sleep quietly through the night. He mimics the vibe of the house by playing when we are active and snuggling on couch when we are quiet. He also gets along with other dogs, playing or backing off at the appropriate times. As he has settled into his foster home, he has started wrestling with the alpha dog of the house. Trenton deserves someone who will shower him with attention, car rides and rounds of fetch. He is everyone’s best friend, can he be yours? Trenton is neutered and up to date on all vaccines, flea and heartworm medication.

Zoey

Hound (Unknown Type)

Story
Zoey is a 3 year old hound mix who is full of energy. She gets along great with other dogs and loves to go on walks. She will do well with an active family who will walk her and play with her. She has also done well with various kids of all ages she has met on her walks. She is still working on her potty training but has been doing well with only a few accidents in the house. We do believe she would benefit greatly from some obedience training as she does love to chew on one of the dog beds but can easily be redirected to chew on a toy. She does well in her crate while we are gone and through the night with no issues in our room. When feeding it would be best to feed her separate from other dogs as she has growled at the resident dogs when they were nearby while she was eating. She does not growl at us when we grab her food or move her bowl while eating. We think this stems from when she was a stray and wasn’t sure when her next meal would be. We are working on the growling and hoping she learns that she will always have a meal. She would do great with anyone and would love to be the next addition to your family. Apply to meet Zoey today at www.rescueahart.org!
