Story
Hey there! I’m Poncho! I’m a 4 month old chihuahua/pit bull mix, weighing in at 24 lbs of pure love and joy! I’m all about running, playing, and having a blast, but don’t worry— I’ll never outgrow my love for cuddling! Snuggling up and giving puppy kisses is my very favorite thing to do. I get along great with cats—there’s one in my foster home, and I’m totally chill about her. I’m way more focused on playtime and bonding with my humans and my foster brother, Guy. He’s an alum of Adopt a Pit and is three times my size, but I keep up! Did I mention I’m one of the sweetest pups you’ll ever meet? If you’re looking for a playful, cuddly little love bug, I’m for you! All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application. We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information. We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.   January 7, 2025, 3:14 pm

Story
Hi, I am Rosie and I am super shy. I am about 6 years old, have been with HART since June 2021 and am looking for a home to call my own. I came from a hoarding situation where over 150 doggies just like me were living together in a small house. My ideal space will either be with one of my friends (King is extra snuggly) or in a home with a dog about my size to hang around. I am a pretty easy going gal and am not territorial about my food, toys or treats. I don't mind cats but a doggie friend is a must for me. I am happiest if I get to roam around a yard with a fence as I have rarely been on a leash and just don't like it. I think I could learn to love humans and their attention but I will need time and patience as I am just learning what it is like to be loved. Think you might be the family for me? Please fill out an adoption application NOW at rescueahart.org as I have been waiting way too long for a place to call my own!

Story
Do you want a small dog companion but NOT a lap dog? Do you want a dog who will run from you rather than towards you? Do you want a dog who prefers the company of other dogs over you? Well then I have got the perfect dog for you!! Please give a warm welcome to Clementine! In all seriousness, she is an adorable little girl. Clementine came to Hart in June 2021 and has been in the same foster home ever since. She with so many others was rescued from a hoarding situation in Tennessee. To this day, she still exhibits nervousness around people. For this reason, she is looking for a very special adopter. The adopter will need to be very patient with her and give her ample time to show her brand of affection. While she still runs from me if I try to approach her to pet her, she does make her way over to me at bedtime for lovings. She will even sleep in bed with me and give me some sweet kisses. But when it’s time to get up, she darts away again. I truly can’t explain it but I have learned to accept it. Clementine does great with her doggy friends. She is most comfortable with other dogs. The ideal adopter will have another dog in the home that will groom and “mother” her. She loves having a dog around that she can curl up with!! Also, since she is hard to catch, a fenced in yard would be best for her. Due to the fact that Clementine can be a challenge to catch and she does not come when called, any meet/greets will have to be done at the adopter’s home and only within 25 miles of the Northern Kentucky area. PS Guard your socks. She loves socks (haha)

These pups are in Dayton, Ohio too!

Story
Hi, I am Tiffany, a small, spirited dog with a big personality. Though I may be pint-sized, I have a lot of heart and a bold attitude. I love my humans, both big and small. However, it is hard for me to warm up to other dogs easily, so I keep my distance from them and prefer my own space. I am crate trained and house trained but may need time to adjust to my new surroundings. I can be a bit shy and cautious around new people, taking my time before showing my true, affectionate nature. Once I feel comfortable, I become a sweet and loving companion who enjoys quiet moments and bonding. Treats are my absolute favorite, and I am a fast learner when it comes to manners and routine. I will need some patience while I get adjusted to a new home, but my loyalty and love will be worth every moment of understanding. ADOPTION FEE: $450 (All MVPC dogs are heartworm-tested and on prevention, completely vetted, spayed/neutered, microchipped, crate-trained and house-trained) ADOPTER: Dog experience BIRTHDAY: 11/02/2021 FENCE: Required (an electric fence is not an acceptable form of containment) DOG FRIENDLY: Yes DOGS IN HOME: Required CATS: Unknown CHILDREN: Yes, 8 and over I AM READY TO GO HOME - If you are approved to be my new family, a hold fee of $100 is required and will be applied to the full adoption fee of $450 when MVPC comes to visit your house with me! ***WE DO NOT HOLD DOGS.
