Meet Paris, a 4 year old frenchie. She does well with other small-medium size dogs but can get intimidated by large dogs. Paris does well with kids and is housebroken and crate trained. Paris is described as a wonderful pup who is always ready to snuggle or play! She makes a wonderful companion who loves to be with her people. Loves to go for walks and play in the yard, love to play fetch (she’s great on the getting part, not so much on the bring back!) Paris Loves to stretch out in the house and sleep, gets so excited if there is a warm fire to lay near

Check out handsome Frankie strutting his cat walk!

This sweet but shy boy has the cutest slow motion saunter as he's debating whether or not to be friends🤣

He can be cautious of new people, but once he warms up, he's a total love bug! Frankie was abandoned on the streets by his owner and The Hero Rescue took him in.

He is looking for a quiet home with a patient adopter to really let his inner sweetie shine!

Delilah is a sweet 2.5 year old St. Bernard mix who is well behaved and a big love bug. She does great in the house, is potty trained, and loves kids. Delilah loves to snuggle, go on adventures and will be a great family pet. We would prefer she be the only dog in the home.

Remi is a little bundle of energy! She's playful, curious, and loves to explore the world with her paws. Whether it's running in circles or tackling her favorite toy, she's always up for a game. Remi is now 8 weeks old. She and her siblings were taken in at a local shelter at just 1 week old without mom and we pulled them. Remi's amazing foster bottle fed these babies and gave them so much love and care over the past 2 months. Now she's ready to find her fur-ever home!
We believe she is a pittie mix who will be medium size when full grown, but without knowing either parent it's a best guess.
