Story
Chloe is a 4 yr-old Morkie who weighs 5 lb. Chloe is a super sweet and affectionate little girl. Chloe is all about her person. She would do best with someone who works from home or is home the majority of the time. Chloe sleeps in the bed with her foster mom and loves to burrow under the covers.  She could happily be an only dog or have another small dog in the home who is about her size (under 10 lbs). Chloe walks great on leash and is doing excellent with house training. WE REQUIRE AN ALL-ADULT HOME (NO CHILDREN) WITH A SECURELY FENCED YARD FOR CHLOE’S ADOPTIVE HOME.  The secure fence must be 4ft or higher, with gaps no greater than 1.5 inches and attached to the home. An invisible fence, enclosed patio, terrace or deck, temporary fencing, dog pens or dog lots or community shared fencing (dog park) are NOT considered secure fencing. If your fencing has "puppy pickets" (or is supplemented with garden fencing) it needs to be at least 36 inches high from the ground up AT THE LOWEST POINT.  No exceptions.   We are an all-volunteer organization, and in addition to saving dogs, we have other responsibilities, so we appreciate your patience and understanding during this process. Response time can take up to 5 business. Please inquire only if you are willing to come to Greensboro, North Carolina to meet the dog after we schedule your home visit. We do not ship dogs or put them on transports. Veterinary Care: All Hart-2-Heart Rescue foster dogs are spayed/neutered, current on heartworm prevention, parvo/distemper, bordetella, and rabies vaccines and are professionally groomed. As needed, our foster dogs have teeth cleanings, extractions, bloodwork and other diagnostic testing. Adoption Fee:  $500April 23, 2024, 10:28 pm

Story
Maya is a 1-year-old Maltipoo who weighs 7 lb. Maya is a happy and active little girl. She could be an only dog or have another dog in the home who is under 15 lbs. Maya would do best with someone who can match her energy level and enjoys daily walks. She is doing great with house, crate and leash training, but she will need someone patient who can continue working with her to be successful. Maya is quick and can get under your feet easily, which could be a tripping hazard for those with balance issues. Maya enjoys playing with toys and can keep herself entertained, at the same time, she is still very much a pup and will chew on rugs and electrical cords if they strike her fancy; however, Maya is easily redirected.  She is smart and very trainable and would be a joy for someone who wants to teach a dog tricks.   WE REQUIRE AN ALL-ADULT HOME (NO CHILDREN) WITH A SECURELY FENCED YARD.  The secure fence must be 4ft or higher, with gaps no greater than 1.5 inches and attached to the home.

Story
PLEASE READ ALL THE WAY THROUGH BEFORE APPLYING!Charlie is a 6 year old Maltese-Poodle mix who had a very sad start to life. He came from a home where the humans treated him very poorly, and because of this, he has had to learn what being a normal dog is actually like, which is a long term process. Charlie has been with the rescue for 2 years and has shown immense progress in that time. Charlie understandably has trust issues, which leads to fearful and anxious responses in stressful situations, including biting in the past. Charlie does very well around other dogs and small children. It’s adult humans that Charlie is skeptical of, but he tends to be excited and happy to meet new people these days, and readily accepts pets and scritches from strangers. At his core, Charlie is a happy-go-lucky circus dog. He is vibrant, outgoing, and he has responded well to his etiquette training and knows to wait for permission to approach his food or go out an open door. He loves going for walks, and does well on a leash when in familiar surroundings, but he can get anxious around new people and in new places, and may start pulling and not responding to voice commands and corrections, but this is improving as he gains exposure to the world at large. Charlie is also completely house trained and crate trained. The crate has been where Charlie seeks out safety and comfort, but as time passes and his confidence grows, he quite often leaves the safety of the crate and seeks out the company of humans. He wants to cuddle as much as any good dog does, but he still feels awkward about it at times. These days, he is happy to curl up next to his favorite human and snooze away. One consideration with Charlie is his need to be groomed regularly. Charlie can be a very fluffy boy, so grooming is essential, and should be done every 3 to 6 months. Charlie does not enjoy the experience at present, so it is best to have him sedated and groomed by a professional. At present, he won’t allow me to cut his nails or brush his teeth. Strangely enough, he does just fine with baths. Charlie absolutely has to go to a home with someone who is knowledgeable and comfortable with fearful dogs and the behaviors that come with that. He needs a home where everyone is committed to helping him learn that humans won't hurt him. This forever family has to be patient with him and let him have his time to decompress and slowly come to them when he is ready. His owners will have to be committed to getting Charlie the training and support he needs to feel confident and safe again. Because of how fearful he is, training should focus on positive reinforcement and building trust and not punishment.If you are interested in this animal please start by filling out an adoption application at http://www.CFP-NC.org/adoptions and we will get in touch with you.
