Story
Boomer, or Bam as he’s affectionately called, has been my loyal companion for nearly a decade. Though his muzzle has turned white with age, his spirit remains as youthful as ever. He still bounds with energy, but more often than not, you’ll find him sprawled in a sunny patch, soaking up the warmth. When the sun isn’t out, he’s curled up on the sofa, bed, or in some hilariously upside-down position, lost in dreams. His love for snacks is unmatched—apples, peanut butter, and coconut oil are his favorites. And while he adores his human, he’s just as friendly with other dogs, always greeting them with a wagging tail. I had hoped to care for Boomer for all his days, but life has taken an unexpected turn. My greatest wish is to find him a home where he’ll be showered with love, sunlit naps, and endless treats. He deserves nothing less than a family who will cherish him as much as I do. Boomer’s journey isn’t over—it’s just finding a new path.

Story
Crater is a pup who mostly prefers to sit back and observe his siblings shenanigans. He’s a snuggly boy and really enjoys human interaction over rough housing with the other pups. He loves toys and making funny faces. If he catches you trying to take a photo of him, he will run to the camera to put his nose against it. He thinks he’ll be a lap dog forever (and of course would love nothing more!)

Story
Meet Graham! Graham was given away by someone who got him and then decided they didn't actually want the responsibility of a puppy. Graham loves people! And loves kiddos. He is still a little nervous meeting new dogs, but he is just a baby who is learning social skills! He has the softest coat and makes a great cuddle buddy. He will need to work on basic training and potty training as would any young pup!

I am a young guy (only 3 or 4 months old) and have started out my life homeless. I am hoping you can be my forever family. According to my nice foster family, I am a sweet boy, with a happy disposition. I am a little shy at first, but I think it is simply because I have not had a lot of exposure to a lot of things. I do warm up quickly and give the best hugs and kisses. I am gentle, and have a cute little personality that really starts to shine with a couple of toys or out in the yard. I am enjoying the company of other dogs and am learning to play with them. I am doing great with crate training, and am doing a great job learning the ins and outs of housetraining. My foster mom says that I have the cutest little head and face with the sweetest floppy ears. If you are looking for your new best friend please consider me! I'm looking for my new best friend too, and maybe we could be each others! I can't wait to meet you.

Story
CiCi is a 9 month old Aussie maybe Corgi mix who came to us from a shelter we work with where she was a staff favorite. She weighs 30 pounds and won't get much bigger. She has some house manners such as potty training and is learning more. She is a smart girl who gets along with other dogs. She would do well with another dog in the home to play with and show her the way. All Heart of America dogs are altered, micro chipped and will have age-appropriate vaccines. The adoption fee for all of our dogs/puppies is $225. Dog Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HAUS/Dog
