Story
Meet lovely Saiga! Born approximately July 26, 2021 she came to us via Tri City Animal Control. We initially treated her for parvo while in the care of animal control-she was lined up to go to a rescue in western WA when her former owners came forward and took her back into their care. Fast forward a bit and she landed back at animal control, we couldn’t let her remain in the shelter and so here she is! Saiga is amazing with people-she has the best kisses and loves human affection. Saiga's only weakness is that she's not good with other animals so will need to be in an only dog home. Even after training she is not safe around other animals so it's very important that she's adopted as an only pet. She will require a secure 6 foot fence - no chain link and no exceptions. Saiga has a lot of love to give and will make a great companion. Her best fit home will be an adult only one. Applications to foster or adopt Saiga can be submitted at www.mikeyschance.com

Story
This cream-colored boy is as handsome as they come, and he knows it! Arthur is the definition of a lovable, clingy, oversized marshmallow. If he could melt into your lap, he absolutely would… despite being roughly the size of a small horse. He just wants to be one with his person—is that really too much to ask? Arthur is mellow, sweet, and wonderfully clumsy, trotting around like a baby giraffe who hasn’t quite figured out where his legs end. He longs to please his people, be adored, and get all the belly rubs his big body can possibly soak in. And water? Oh, this boy LOVES water. He doesn’t just splash—he submerges his entire self like he’s auditioning to be a sea creature. A water-loving family would be his absolute paradise. HISTORY Arthur was found as a stray puppy with 2 littermates in Richland, WA. At the time that they were found, they were estimated to be roughly 4 months old. Since we don't know their true DOB, we have designated 3/27/25 as their DOB. Arthur is located in Kennewick, in Eastern Washington. We share information about our dogs in postings based in other cities to improve their chances of finding a great forever home. He is well worth a road trip, and we encourage you to come and meet him before you decide he should join your family! SOCIALIZATION, TEMPERAMENT AND TRAINING Arthur is thriving in his foster home and is doing wonderful with the resident dogs (100lb Akita, and 20 lbs mixed breed). He enjoys playful canine friends and is growing more confident every day. He is also fostered with a toddler and has been pretty gentle with her—no jumping, no knocking over, just requests and appreciation for tiny human affection. Arthur is also fostered with a cat, but we do not believe him to be a candidate for a cat home at this time. While he does not mind the cat being in high spaces, he chases them as soon as they hop down to his level. Though his chase can be called off, we don't believe this to be his ideal environment. Arthur LOVES meeting new people and will gladly lean his entire body weight into anyone willing to pet him. He’s a velcro dog through and through. He would thrive in a home where someone works from home or is around often. Being close to his human is his love language. Arthur is around 8 months old, which means he is officially entering the doggy teenage stage—also known as the “I forgot everything I’ve ever learned but I’m still very cute” phase. Think of it as his goofy middle school era. He may test boundaries, get distracted by a leaf blowing across the yard, and have opinions about things he didn’t notice before. It’s all normal, temporary, and honestly pretty hilarious. With consistency, patience, and fun training sessions, he’ll grow right through it and come out the other side an amazing adult dog. HEALTH STATUS General info Arthur is up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, sterilized, and dewormed. He appears to be in good health. Once full grown, he will likely be somewhere in the 50-70 lbs. range. ADOPTION The adoption fee for Arthur is $425. For more pictures of Arthur, see his Facebook album at: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1064122869202135&type=3 To apply to adopt Arthur, please complete our online adoption application at https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HAWA/Dog, or email hearthfireART@gmail.com and request an adoption application form. HART dogs live in foster homes, not in a kennel facility. To respect our fosters' privacy, we make our dogs available to meet adopters only after an adoption has been approved.

Story
Born, February 26, 2022 Styx is a Husky/Pitbull mix who weighs about 75 pounds. He is very sweet, snuggly and playful. He loves all humans and just wants to be near people. He will roll over to get his belly rubbed or try to sit as near as possible - which might be in your lap. He can get exuberant and be a little pushy so we are working on boundaries. Styx is potty trained and kennels well but would welcome an invitation to sleep with his people. He walks well with a front clip leash, and doesn’t react to other dogs behind fences or walking by. He would love a home where he gets lots of exercise walking, running, hiking, camping however, he also settles down and will take a nice nap on the couch. He would be perfect as an only dog or with.m another canine companion. He’s been introduced to cats but has never lived with one. He will need a home that is willing to continue training to make him a good canine citizen and grow into the best dog he can be. Styx’s forever home will require a secure 6 foot fence with adults or adults and children over 5. Applications: www.mikeyschance.com

Story
Van Haagar is doing so well in his foster home but he would love to lay down some roots in a forever home! Van Haagar was born 9/27/2022 and is a pitty mix. Here is what his foster mom has to say about him: He LOVES food and is very treat motivated, which is amazing for training. He is very sweet, and I think he just needs a lot of love and patience as he gets used to a new home. He truly just wants to hang out and spend time with his humans and doggy friends. Other fun facts: He loves his bed and the couches…anything soft! He loves to snuggle - he makes the perfect coach potato. He is hesitant of loud noises. He is kennel trained but prefers the couch. 🛋️ He is house trained. He does get curious of the trash can because he is so food driven so a trash can with a lid is recommended. 😂 He enjoys car rides-especially if a pup cup is involved He is working on leash training because he does tend to pull but he does pretty great with recall. He gets along well with his foster dog siblings- but he can play rough sometimes. He would live a sibling that matches his energy and play style Cats would be a big NO 🐈🐈‍⬛ Kids are unknown but his foster would recommend kids 8+ just because he is a big boy and could easily knock over a little one. If you can give this handsome guy his forever, please apply at mikeyschance.com.

Story
Rex is a lovable, high-energy boxer looking for his forever family! He was born 2-13-2022. This handsome boy is full of personality—playful, affectionate, and always ready for an adventure. Like a true boxer, he’s goofy, loving, and always eager to be by your side. Rex gets along great with kids and other dogs, but because he jumps when excited, we recommend a home with children 5 and up. His ideal family should have experience with the boxer breed and understand their energetic nature. A fenced yard and an active household would be perfect for this bouncy boy! If Rex is the only dog in the home, he’ll need plenty of physical and mental stimulation to keep him happy and engaged. He thrives on playtime, training, and interactive activities that challenge both his body and mind. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, loyal companion who will keep you laughing and moving, Rex is your guy! His ideal home would be one with a securely fenced yard, and if there are kids in the home, over the age of 5. Applications: www.mikeyschance.com

Story
Meet Baby Girl Gloria! This gorgeous gal is a Bull Terrier who was born February 9, 2021. Here is a little bit about her: she wound up at the local shelter due to no fault of her own until Mikey’s pulled her into the program so they could find her her best fit home. She is very people oriented and loves to go on walks (check out her smile)! Baby Girl would thrive in an active home with a securely fenced yard. She would do best in a cat free home without other small animals but another canine friend of similar size and energy level (she prefers males) would be great as well as an only dog home. We are seeking a home for her with adults or adults and children over 5. Applications for foster and adoption can be found at www.mikeyschance.com
