Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Tyson is a very handsome small 4 year old, 23lb male frenchie who is looking for an EXPERIENCED and responsible owner that does not have a lot of human traffic in their life. He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. Tyson did not have a lot of boundaries or structure in his previous home, so he learned to guard his food. Through lots of diligent work and training, his food aggression is currently easily manageable by someone who is willing and able to earn his trust and build a relationship and bond with him. He is not an overly affectionate boy, but he does enjoy attention, walks, and body or belly scratches by his favorite person. Tyson is crate trained and walks well on leash. Please do not apply if you do not have adequate experience in handling dogs, or if you have children in the home. Also, you should be very well versed in breed related health issues to be considered for Tyson. Applications can be submitted at heertorescue.orgVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 24, 2024, 6:52 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Bear is an adorable 2 year old, 26lb male French Bulldog. He is neutered, current on vaccines, and microchipped. Bear is a retired breeder, but a very sweet boy, and he does have quite a good energy level, so he needs an active family who can safely, but effectively excersize him to drain his energy. Bear is crate training but is still working on his potty training. Bear is ok with most female dogs (must meet to be evaluated if there is any other dogs in the home) but not good with male dogs. Bear is ok on leash, but does need continued practice. He would be best with a family that can commit to continuing to work with him on training. He is eager to please and loves to give kisses, so he does have lots of potential to be an outstanding new family member. We would prefer that any children in the home be 9+. If you are interested in adopting this cute little man, please visit our website heertorescue.org and submit an application. *we do not adopt out of state. Please research the breed along with the common medical issues associated with the breed prior to submitting an applicationVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 24, 2024, 6:52 pm

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Dee Dee is one amazing almost 4 year old girl! She is spayed, current on vaccines and microchipped. She is good with other dogs, cats, kids and people. She is a very happy and friendly girl and loves to cuddle! She has a good energy level and is great on car rides and is also crate trained. She would love an active family with another playful dog to keep her company but also help keep her weight in check. She does need a little work in the potty training department because her original home did not have the time to spend working with her on that. She is overall a simply amazing girl.

Story
Meet Heidi! She’s around 3 years old and we think she’s a Frenchie/Shepherd mix. She loves people and loves affection. She knows sit and let’s go (leash manners). She is crate trained and potty trained. She randomly gets the zoomies and it’s hilarious to watch her run around. She loves food and is very food motivated to learn new things. She a little shy at first but opens right up when offered a treat from new people. She’s currently in training and she starts public work next week where they will work with her on meeting strangers. She has met older kids (teenagers) and she gets excited to see them. She likes toys but only plays with them on her own, she doesn’t like fetch. She can’t wait to find her forever home!

Story
Meet adoptable Roxy! This sweet little 1 year old French Pitbull was found on the side a very busy road, and after living there for weeks, a Good Samaritan took her in. She’s around a year old. She is great with large dogs, and loves to play all day. Shes been with small dogs and cats, but plays a little too rough. She’s potty trained, and has no accidents. Roxy is crate trained and sleeps in it quietly all night. She knows come, sit, down, stay, leave it, watch me, no and shake. Walking on the leash is where she really shines, she’s quiet, well behaved, and loves to explore. Roxy is learning to walk in the heal position. She’s great in the car, and loves to go bye-bye. If you’re looking for a cuddle buddy, she’s the girl for you. Cuddling is her favorite past time, and she loves to climb up in your lap and lick your face to show how much love she has to give. Roxy is short and stocky (up to your knees), and 45 pounds. Her coat is a gorgeous velvety blue, and her eyes are a dazzling amber color. She has the best bat ears standing at attention. Roxy loves kids, and lived with two toddlers at her fosters house. She’s makes a great nanny dog. Because of being abandoned, Roxy has some separation anxiety, so she needs someone who is home a lot, or works from home. She’s a happy-go-lucky girl and she’s looking for her forever family. Roxy can’t wait to meet you! Interested in adopting this pet?

Story
Meet 5 year old, 40 lb. friendly French Bulldog, Rockie. Rockie was surrendered to us by his owner, who no longer had the ability to properly care for him. Rockie's owner took him in about a year earlier from another unfortunate situation, where his owner and constant companion passed away. Rockie loves his walks and belly rubs. He is well-behaved with people as long as there is not a toy around. Rockie is obsessed with toys. He is a good companion for people, yet may react to other dogs. For that reason, he needs to be the only dog in your home. Rockie is a very solid, sturdy dog that need an experienced owner to handle him, and should not be around young children. Rockie is on allergy medication, and a special diet. If you are interested in Rockie, go to adoptocpets.org/adopt to download an adoption application.

Story
I'm very playful, I LOVE toys, I enjoy playing in water, I love to go on walks, and can give you a high-5!' - me, Rocko FrenchRocko is an 8-year-old, 25 lb. Frenchie, he was abandoned by his owner and tied in a front yard of the home where the owner was renting a room. Eventually Rocko got loose from the tether, then bit the property owner while loose. At the shelter, he was very selective with staff, liking some and trying to snap at others. Since he has been with us, he is just as selective - he loves one of our volunteer walkers and snaps at another.When he bites, he seems to like feet the most. He is available to a very experienced adult only and cat-free household, where he will have structure and boundaries so he can be the best Frenchie and friend he can be.March 27, 2024, 4:11 am

Not good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
When Boomer came to us, we immediately saw his potential, and we also quickly observed that he was severely under-socialized with people, was very scared, and protected himself by biting. At 4.5 years old and 26.5 lbs., he’s a little guy who makes a big impact. Our team has been working with him tirelessly to help him adjust. He recently went out on a walk around a busy shopping mall and did well, and he can now be walked by multiple people without feeling terrified. Don't rush to apply, just yet, however. He still needs a patient adopter who will go slow with him, will read his body language and cues, and will take care of his physical issues. Like many Frenchies, he has many allergies and will need extra vet visits, medication, and an anti-allergy diet. He will be more expensive to care for than a typical dog. So, if you think you want him.... DO apply if you understand the unique challenges of Frenchies, understand dog behavior, are a top-notch calm and VERY patient confident leader, and can and will continue to set up Boomer to be a great, happy dog that doesn't ever bite again. If you can’t check every box, don’t worry; we have many, many, many other GREAT dogs that need you! Please apply for one of them.March 27, 2024, 4:11 am

Tyson--a handsome, small, 4 year old, male Frenchie--is ready for an experienced owner that lives a quiet life without a lot of humans visiting. Neutered, Tyson is up to date with all of his vaccines, and is microchipped. He can be very selective about who he likes and who he is unsure about. Tyson did not have a lot of boundaries in his previous home, so he learned to guard his food. His food aggression is manageable by someone who is willing to earn his trust and build a relationship with him. He is not overly affectionate, but he does enjoy body and belly scratches by his favorite person. If you are interested in adopting or fostering Tyson, please research breed related health issues prior to submitting an application.
