Story

Yo yo yo! I'm Larry! Or Wobbly Bob. The guy who found me thought both suited me just fine! I had a great weekend hanging out with him waiting for my owner to come forward, but no luck. If his dog would have been more welcoming, I could have just stayed with them. But, it wasn't meant to be and now I am on the hunt for my new family. I am so sweet! The ladies here all swoon over me and my floppy ears. I do the best wiggly jiggly move when they pet me (hence the name Wobbly Bob) and I love to follow them wherever they go. Sound like a dog you would like to add to your family? I'm sure I would fit right in! Meet me today!

Story

Hello!!! My name is Bear and I am ready to be your new best friend! You are a human with hands. I am a dog with soft fur. Catching the correlation here? Yeah, buddy! You were meant to pet me! So, funny story time. My siblings and myself were unknowingly adopted by our previous family. Because my mom was keeping us a secret in her belly. Then one day, they came out to feed her and their other dog and there we were! They were surprised but fell in love with us immediately. They worked with us, gave us names, and taught us all about recall and being off leash with our humans. But, you know, we are kind of big. Our mom is kinda big and their other dog is big as well. So they decided the best thing for us was to find a new home that had the space and energy that we needed. So here I am, waiting for you to pet me. Give the ladies a call and come meet me today!

Story

Hey there, I'm Delilah. I'm not from New York City, but I am from right around here. My mom was a rescue before my siblings and I were born. Oh Mom, what a trickster she is... she kept her pregnancy a secret from the rescue and her new family. Then SURPRISE! My 9 siblings and I made our grand entrance. Let me tell you, the hoomans that found us were quite taken aback. They actually laugh about it now. Anyway, our hoomans were really cool people. They wanted to keep us and they worked with us every day, taught us our names and how to be good off leash. But raising that many dogs, when you were only expecting to have 2, is a bit much. So here we are! Come meet me or my brother today! We really are pretty cool and can't wait to be a part of your family!

Mya

Good with dogs, House-trained,

Story

Looking for a stunning lady to snuggle up to? I'm your girl! I came to HHS to seek out a new home for walks, cuddles and more! I have lived with other dogs, and I love spending time with them. Cats are terrifying but I'd learn to co-exist with one and may eventually love on it. My previous dad says I'm loyally housetrained and preferred sitting on his lap like small breed dog. He says 51-pound ladies are too big for lap sitting but I disagree. If you won't let me lap sit, I'm just gonna lean all my weight onto you until we melt into a pile. I am well-mannered inside and, while I warm up to folks slowly, once I do, I'll be your best friend.

Rezzie and Kimber's owner recently passed away. They have no family to care for them, so they are in need of a home as soon as possible. Their owner would have wanted them to stay together, so we are hoping to find somewhere for them to go together.
