Remember this cutie??
In November 2019, Kaiya was found abandoned in a trailer, covered in f***s, & without food or water. After she and her sister were rescued, they quickly became part of an ugly custody battle to fight charges of neglect.
After months of boarding, the girls were finally released to HB, and placed immediately in foster care. Not surprisingly, they never left..! Kaiya is a special girl, and so extremely fortunate to have Renee as her forever mom. Here's what she has to say: "Adopting Kaiya has filled a huge hole for me; from the moment she sat next to me showering me with kisses, I knew then we needed each other. She's a cuddle bug, makes big sighs and grunts, loves scratches and being chased by doggie friends. She's still learning that many environments are sometimes scary and knowing what to trust is hard but making her feel safe and loved is worth everyday we're together!"
Have a beautiful life Kai-Baby. 💕

Kammon is officially named Regal Steele! 💓
Here is what his new mom has to say about him..
"Steele is the absolute sweetest boy. He had some naughty habits at first but as soon as I got him home and he realized that he had a forever home, all of those habits dissipated. It’s like he was waiting for me his entire life so far. Steele has adapted to my pack as if he has always been a part of us. He is now so well behaved that I can take him anywhere without a second thought of how he will behave himself. Adopting Steele has absolutely completed my pack. My pack and I love him immensely and cannot wait to share all of our adventures together for the rest of our lives. Welcome home forever, Steele. 💜"

A special thank you to his mom Kieli, who has given her whole heart and more, to her four-legged family members! The pure joy on this boy's face says it all. 💕

Our exuberant rescue pup Oliver, now named Wrigley, has been in absolute heaven with his new mom Abigail! Here's what she has to say about him:
"Wrigley loves chewing on bones, going for walks, and snuggling in bed! My favorite thing about him is how curious he is about everything. Always roaming the house and stopping to sniff the bushes."
Happy life Wrigley! 🥳

A post to brighten your day! An update on our handsome boy Remi, who is now named Chidi.
"Remi is doing awesome and everything is great! He has come out of his shell and getting that puppy behavior back playing with Eleanor."
Within a day, Remi adopted the family! He made himself right at home, sleeping with his human brother Aiden, and draping himself across his new Mom Stacey. His adopted Mom laughs as they've discovered that Remi not only likes baths, but LOVES THEM.
"Every time we go in the bathroom he jumps in the tub and looks at us so hopefully!"
"He is a super big goofball now that his personality is coming out, he's pretty clumsy too and that makes for a lot of laughs around here." 😊
Remi, now named CHIDI, could not have landed a better home! We are so grateful for the love this family has for their fur babies, and we wish them a very happy life together! ❤🐾

My name is JACKSON. I am a 1.5 yr old Bull Terrier. My friends at Homeward Bound describe me as goofy, lovable, eager to please, and athletic. I am wonderful on a leash, and LOVE sitting on a couch if you let me. When we describe Jackson, the word that comes to mind is GOOFY! This little man likes to crawl, roll over, bounce for now reason, and be all sorts of cute! Although he is adorable, Jackson is strong and gets very excited to see other dogs! He plays wonderfully and would love to be with any fur-friend who would take him! :D Jackson is eager, agile, wiggly, athletic, and a great listener! His favorite activities include chasing the ball and perching on the sofa. Jackson is extremely driven and wants very badly to be a good boy. He will be a great addition to anyone who can match his enthusiasm for life.

Remember Samantha?! She has been adopted to a wonderful dog-loving family in Bend, Oregon. Sam has a new sister named Cassie, and incredible parents Linda and Jack! When Cassie met Samantha, she knew it was meant to be! The two girls are quickly becoming great friends. They spend their days playing ball with Dad and accompanying Mom on neighborhood walks each morning. Sam has acres to run and comfy beds to be snuggled. We are so happy for their new family member!

Jackson is ready for his forever home!
'GOOFY' doesnt begin to describe his personality... he is eager, agile, wiggly, athletic, and a great listener! His favorite activities include chasing the ball and perching on the sofa. Jackson is well mannered and very obedient. If you think Jackson might be looking for YOU, email us at [email protected] for an application!

Tigger’s dream came true February 2, 2020! He has been in a foster to adopt and worked with our trainer to help him settle into his new life. His favorite activities include going to Home Depot with his Dad, driving the semi-truck cross country with his mom, and playing with his jolly ball in his gigantic backyard!
Here is what his mom has to say:
“He has done so well here, I’m in AWE! It’s like he understands that he is finally home. Our life is just complete with him! We are privileged to be his loving, caring family that he deserves.”
Tigger has been renamed to FASI, which is Samoan for “fighter survivor”. Enjoy your new life Fasi. You will forever be held close to our hearts!

We are happy to announce that Re*****on is in a foster-to-adopt! Funny enough, we believe he has been reunited with his litter mate sis! They are quickly becoming best friends! Remi has two young boys to help look after and foster parents who welcome his snuggles on the couch. We are amazed each day by this innocent soul and are grateful for his supportive foster family. ❤

We are happy to announce that Jasper, now named Pepe’, has found his forever home!
Linsey, Pepe’s mom, began fostering him in November. It didn’t take long for her to realize that he was there to stay. Pepe’ has been in a foster-to-adopt for a little over a month. His favorite activities include going to work with his mom every day, claiming pet rocks on the patio, and playing with his twin brother Ringo. He also loves exploring the Boise foothills, and later, snuggling with mom and dad on the couch. He couldn’t be with a more perfect family, and we are lucky to have been a part of their story.

FOSTER NEEDED!
Tigger is a 1.5 yr old hunk of love! He is active, outgoing, and very curious about the world! His favorite activies include snuggling, going for a long walk or jog, giving kisses, meeting new people, and bouncing everywhere he can! He is great with kids, both men & women, but please no cats or small dogs. He would be best as an only dog until we improve his communication and socialization skills. Please email [email protected] to apply!
