Occasionally we rescue a dog who struggles to be adoption-ready. Their bad prior life rendered them tricky to re-home.
Harley was part of a neglect/hoarding case. She’d been kept in poor conditions for so long that when we rescued her, she had no idea how to respond. As a result, some of our volunteers walked away from her with bandaided fingers and hurt egos.
Then one of our long-time volunteers, Margie, offered to take Harley home to work with her. Margie was NOT looking for a third dog (her other two are HPF alumni). It was STRICTLY for fostering until Harley could learn to accept love.
Good news! Harley has learned to accept and give love. The catch is, she only wants that give and take with Margie and Margie’s dogs.
So…..thank you Margie for making room in your heart and home for one more dog. Harley is so happy with you and Taco and Samantha! Thank you for adopting and saving this deserving girl!

This family was so great. They fell for Easton at our adoption event two weeks ago. When we explained that Easton needs time to warm up to people, they didn’t walk away but accepted him the way he is. Not every dog is a “just add water” type. Some need extra assurance and time before…

A woman who was out searching for her own missing cat, happened upon Boss, and took him home with her. She brought him to the vet for a check up and to get his vaccines, because she intended on adding him to her family. Unfortunately the resident cats did not take kindly to a new…
