Story
This is Charlie. He’s a bigger boy at about 90 pounds and 13.5 years old. He is neutered and taken to the vet in October 2025 who said he’s in excellent health for his age. He enjoys daily walks of 1-2 miles, but has some difficulty getting up and down stairs especially if they are not carpeted. His rabbies vaccine is current as well. His owners were family friends of ours and sadly in tragic car accident in October 2025. We took him in temporarily to help find him a home but are no longer able to care for him. Charlie is used to always being around people as his primary care givers were retired senior citizens who spent most of their time at home with Charlie so he does not do well when left at home alone for extended periods of time and unfortunately we are at work/school all day during the week. He loves to be on the floor sleeping by your side or by himself outside basking in the sunshine. Ideal sweetheart for someone who works from home and wants a low key lovable senior pup!

Story
Hi&#44 Im Buddy! <br/><br/>Im a one-year-old boy whos looking for my forever home. I ended up at the shelter because my previous owner had more animals than they could care for&#44 but they say Im a shy yet very sweet soul-and I think that describes me perfectly.<br/><br/>Im a calm guy who loves to cuddle. Wherever my humans are in the house&#44 thats where youll usually find me. I like to be involved in whatevers going on and just enjoy being close. I also love running around the yard and playing for hours with other dogs-especially my siblings-but when the day winds down&#44 my favorite place is curled up sleeping on someone.<br/><br/>Id be happiest in a home with other dogs to play with and keep me company. Since I can be a little shy at first&#44 Id do best with older children who understand giving me time to feel comfortable.<br/><br/>If youre looking for a gentle&#44 loving companion who wants to be part of your everyday life&#44 I might just be your Buddy.

Story
Meet Moose 🐾 Moose is a 4-year-old, 50-lb chocolate Lab/Staffy mix who just needed the right environment to show who he really is. He came to us from a partnering shelter where he wasn’t doing well, but once he settled into a foster home, Moose quickly relaxed and started thriving. He’s gaining confidence, building trust, and showing himself to be a solid, well-mannered dog. ✔️ Potty trained ✔️ Friendly with people ✔️ Social with other dogs ✔️ Cat-tested and passed (slow, proper introductions recommended due to his size) Moose will continue to thrive with consistency and a home where he can continue to settle in and be himself. He’s a big, steady presence who’s ready for a fresh start in a home that matches his energy and size. ✨ All Heart of America Humane Society dogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations. If you have other dogs in your home, we require that they meet our dog prior to adoption. 💲 Adoption fee: $225 📍 Once you apply, the foster will contact you to schedule a meet and greet. 👉 Apply here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HAUS/Dog

Story
Chase does well with our cat and I've seen him play well with small dogs. He does have big dog fear aggression. I asked previous owner if he had been bitten by a big dog or a wild animal, they said no. Chase has been a part of our family for 3.5 years and he isn't as reactive with big dogs as he used to be. That's to say, if he is a good distance he doesn't growl and lunge as much. Chase needs an experienced adopter with plenty of room to roam in his own private yard without big dogs nearby. I have talked with a couple of trainers and they think it's likely he can be trained out of his fear aggression. This would be from a knowledgeable owner or trained professional. He loves people and attention. I would caution that he isn't in a home with small children just because he hasn't lived with young children in our home or with original owner. He really is very sweet like Golden Retrievers are known for, he just has some special needs.
