Story
Name: Hezly Nickname: Hezzo. Hesleyan University. Hezzo Bezzo. Leelee. Breed: Havanese Sex: Male Age: ~ 3 year Weight: 11.5 lbs. Before OMD: OMDR took Hezly and 3 of his housemates into rescue when a local animal shelter impounded over 50 animals from a hoarding case. There were 23 matted, under-socialized dogs covered in urine and feces. Hezly, Suni, Simone, and Jordan have been with dedicated OMD foster families learning what it means to live in loving homes, “how to dog” and, of course, receiving their vet care. Energy level: Slow-mow in public, medium-high at home. Confidence level: Low in public, high in his home. Hezly is very unsure about the outside world – which isn’t surprising given his history and the likelihood he was never brought outside the first year of his life. His fear does not result in any aggression, but he will pancake, make himself small, and/or freeze. What we love most: His innocent nature and his little attempts to try and be brave. His bunny hops. How he melts into you when you pick him up. How incredibly sweet he is. What he loves most: Chewing. Bones. Hopping and running through the yard. Food. Playing with his foster (dog) brothers. Sleeping in bed with foster family. What he doesn’t love: Coming inside when it’s a nice day outside! What he knows: Not much tbh. He’s learning “how to dog” and be confident in the outside world. Working on: Confidence. Independence/being alone – He absolutely wants to be right with his people when they are home and has a hard time (barking and crying) when they leave. His foster family is working with him on this, but he will do best with a family who is not consistently gone for long periods of time. Kids: 8 years and up please! He has not shown any aggression to people, but fast-moving, loud kiddos will make him very nervous. Dogs: Yes! Currently fostered with Suni, and another male small dog and is very playful. He will often bark initially at a new dog, and he does need to chew his bones and toys separately from other dogs. Cats: Should be fine! He went nose-to-nose with a neighbor senior cat and had no reaction. House-trained: He came into rescue completely not house-trained (again, unsurprising given his history) and he is making solid progress! He is certainly not 100% but he is getting there and will thrive with a family who has patience and can stick with routine. Crate-trained: Yes. He is currently crated when home alone and he does protest, but settles down eventually (until he knows you’re back home and will then start his protests again!) Hezly is neutered, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and microchipped. He is available for adoption to residents of CT and surrounding states. If you are interested in adopting, please complete an application from omdrescue.org.

Story
Name: Suni Nicknames: Sooner. Grandpa. Slowpoke. Suni cum laude. Breed: Havanese Sex: Male Age: ~ 3 year Weight: 11.5 lbs. Before OMD: OMDR took Suni and 3 of his housemates into rescue when a local animal shelter impounded over 50 animals from a hoarding case. There were 23 matted, under-socialized dogs covered in urine and feces. Hezly, Suni, Simone, and Jordan have been with dedicated OMD foster families learning what it means to live in loving homes, “how to dog” and, of course, receiving their vet care. Energy level: Medium-high. Confidence level: Medium. He is very confident in his foster home, but has moments of uncertainty in the outside world – which isn’t surprising given his history and the likelihood he was never brought outside the first year of his life. He is overall more confident than his foster brother, Hezly, but still has moments of timidness. What we love most: His gentle soul. How curious he is. His “don’t you stop petting me” pawing at you (which, we suppose, could be annoying to people who aren’t as obsessed with their dogs as we are…). When he rolls over and somersaults up against you. When you go to put on his harness and he stands up to help you. The noises he makes when he plays with other dogs. His Einstein-esque wispy eyebrows (yes they’ve been trimmed!) What he loves most: Playing with his foster brothers. Being right on top of foster mom. Chewing bones. Snooping around. What he doesn’t love: The car – he’s gotten car sick a few times. What he knows: Not much tbh. He’s learning “how to dog” and be even more confident in the outside world. Working on: Independence/being alone – he absolutely wants to be right with his people when they're home and has a hard time (barking) when they leave. His foster mom is working with him on this, but will he do best with a family who isn't consistently gone for long periods of time. Kids: 5+ please. He has not shown any aggression to people (and was drawn to the kiddo he did meet!) but very young chaotic, loud kiddos can make him nervous. Dogs: Yes! Currently fostered with Hezly and another small male dog and has proven to be very playful. He will often bark initially at new dogs, but warms up quickly. Cats: Should be fine! His approach to life is generally slow and gentle. House-trained: He came into rescue completely not housetrained (again, unsurprising given his history) and he is making solid progress! He is certainly not 100% but he is getting there and will thrive with a family who has patience and can stick with routine. Crate-trained: Yes. He is currently crated when home alone and does protest, but settles down eventually (until he knows you’re back home and will then start his protests again!) Suni is neutered, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and microchipped. He is available for adoption to residents of CT and surrounding states.

Story
This sweet boy comes in a small package and is simply irresistible. He is a curly hair cutie. Meet Waffle! He is a one-year-old Havanese mix weighing in at 17 pounds. He is the perfect size for a lap dog. He would be a great companion for binge watching your favorite television shows. Waffle had the unfortunate experience of coming from a hoarding case prior to rescue. He is making strides with new daily experiences, but he will need time and space to adjust to different people and environments. He does well interacting with other dogs, children and adults. He has not had the opportunity to meet a cat since coming into rescue.With all the changes in his life, Waffle is working on his house, crate and leash training. It will take practice and commitment, but Waffle is ready to put in his best effort. Waffle knows that his past does not define him and with a full heart and lots of hope, Waffle waits for his dream of a forever family to come true. * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability.The adoption fee for Waffle is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees. To get the ball rolling, head over to our Adoption Application and submit your application today. A Dog Star representative will contact you within 24 hours.

Story
Meet Cleo, a gentle soul with a heart full of hope, ready to find the forever family he has been waiting for. This sweet 1-year-old Havanese boy, weighing just 14 lbs., is as charming as he is resilient. With his long brown and white coat and soulful eyes, Cleo carries a quiet dignity that reflects both his past and his incredible capacity to love. Rescued from a hoarding situation alongside several other dogs, he is slowly discovering the comfort and kindness of a better life, although what he truly longs for is a place to call home.Though Cleo is a bit shy at first, his affectionate nature begins to shine once he feels safe. He is wonderfully gentle with children and gets along well with other dogs, making him a lovely addition to many kinds of families. Though his history with cats is unknown. His calm and kind demeanor suggests he will thrive in a patient and understanding environment. Cleo will need a little time to adjust, but with consistency, compassion, and love, he will continue to blossom into the devoted companion he is meant to be.Cleo has a perfect medium energy level, and he enjoys getting out for walks, exploring the world at his own pace, and spending quality time with his people, but he is just as happy to curl up beside you for a peaceful evening at home. He is currently working on his house training, crate training, and leash skills, and he is eager to learn with gentle guidance and encouragement.More than anything, Cleo is searching for a safe, stable home where he can feel secure and cherished. In return, he will offer unwavering loyalty, quiet companionship, and a lifetime of love. If you are ready to open your heart to a truly deserving pup, Cleo may be the perfect match you have been waiting for.* When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability.The adoption fee for Cleo is $500.
