Story
Location-Wayside Waifs Campus My Friends at Wayside say: -I am from a puppy mill situation. I will likely need extra time to adjust to home life. I have lived with other dogs but have not socialized with people. Things like walking on a leash and going through doorways can be challenging for me. Adopting me will be extremely rewarding, but I need time to learn. -I’m a shy dog and need someone willing to be patient with me.My home needs are: -I am more confident when a have a dog friend with me. Wayside recommends meeting resident dogs to make sure we can be buddies.-I have to meet you with another dog present. Wayside recommends that it be the resident dog in the home.-If you have kids in the home 9 years old and younger, I will need to meet them since I can be nervous around new people and loud noises. -I am more confident when I have another dog around. I must go to a home that has a social resident dog already.-For my safety, I need to go home on an anti-slip collar called a martingale collar. For your convenience, we sell them in our retail store, Whiskers and Wags.Hi, I am Paisley,I am the sweetest 7 year old you will ever meet. I am a great size at 21 pounds. I am a sweet, shy girl who is just learning about life `on the outside`. I can be fearful of new things and new experiences. I want to be near people and I love other dogs. I will need a patient adopter who can help me learn about the world. With a little time and patience, I`m sure to make a lovely friend!I have made a lot of progress on walking on a leash. Some of my friends helped me learn to do it and we now go for walks. I love to go on long, sniffy walks. Are you looking a walking buddy? I would love to walk with you.Here at the shelter, I really like other dogs! I like to follow them around and cuddle. I love to chase them around the yard. I would do well with other calmer, social dogs.What do you think? Am I the girl for you? I would love to meet you. Will you stop by soon?Love, Paisley

Story
**Meet Ted!** Ted is a 3-year-old, 14-pound little guy who has been quietly learning that the world isn't quite as scary as he once thought. Like many breeder-release dogs, Ted didn't have much experience with normal family life before coming into rescue. Because of that, he is still a very fearful dog who needs a patient adopter willing to let him move at his own pace. Ted is not looking for a busy household or lots of new adventures. His perfect home is a calm, quiet one with a secure fenced yard, no children, and a female adopter who understands that trust is earned slowly. The good news? Once Ted trusts you, his sweet personality shines through. His foster mom has watched him transform from a dog who wanted to disappear into one who happily snuggles on the couch, seeks out affection, and enjoys spending time with the people he knows. He has learned to trust his foster mom and her adult daughter when she visits, and he absolutely loves to curl up with the family's dog. Ted is playful with other dogs and would likely benefit from a confident canine companion who can help show him that life is good. While another dog is not required, it would be a wonderful bonus for Ted. One of Ted's most endearing qualities is his gentle nature. He is especially sweet and respectful with the senior citizens who visit the home and enjoys quietly being part of their company. Ted does best when his world stays small and predictable. He isn't the type of dog who will thrive going everywhere with his family or meeting lots of new people. Instead, he's looking for someone who will appreciate the quiet victories: a tail wag, a cuddle on the couch, choosing to stay close instead of hiding, and the trust that grows a little more each day. Potty training is still a work in progress, and Ted currently wears a belly band while he continues learning. Ted may never be the life of the party, but for the right person, he will be a deeply rewarding companion. His foster mom adores him, and we know there is someone out there who will love him just as much. If you believe the best relationships are built on patience, understanding, and celebrating the little things, Ted may be the perfect match for you. All Heart of America Humane Society dogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations. Adoption fee is $250.

Story
🌹 Meet Rosie! 🌹 Rosie is a sweet, gentle girl who recently joined us as a breeder release. Because of her past, so much of the world is still new to her, but she’s slowly learning that people can be kind, soft beds are pretty great, and life can hold so many good things ♥️ Every day, Rosie gets a little braver. She loves gentle affection, enjoys being held, and has the sweetest, most loving personality. She likes being near her people, but she’s still learning to feel comfortable with people approaching her. Right now, she may retreat to the safety of her crate when approached, where she allows her foster family to scoop her up for cuddles or trips outside. She is still building her confidence outdoors as well. She likes to stay close to her foster family while exploring the backyard, but because she can become nervous when it’s time to come back inside, she prefers to follow behind as her foster family walks inside first. More than anything, Rosie needs a patient, loving family who understands that confidence won’t happen overnight. She may need a little extra time to learn that she’s safe, but watching her discover affection, comfort, play, and all the little joys of being a cherished family dog will make that patience so worthwhile. Rosie has already come so far, and we can’t wait to see the happy, confident girl waiting to emerge as she continues to blossom 🌹♥️
