Can you please help our little Donna?

Donna was a stray that came to us. She was in the woods and it took them a week to catch her. They finally caught her and she was kept in a crate until little by little she was no longer afraid.

Donna then made her way to New Jersey and a place with a few of our fosters. When she first arrived, she was very scared and it took her a couple of weeks to venture out of her space. Once we were able to hold her she went to her second foster. She then found her forever home a little less than a month ago with the most amazing adopter.

Unfortunately in animal rescue, even when we think a story has a happy ending that isn't always the case. Donna ended up testing positive for heartworms and HFAR is paying for her heartworm treatment. Donna had a VERY bad reaction to and caused her to go to the emergency vet. We are trying to help her adopter as the vet bill is over $4,000 for her treatment. Please help if you can.

Hi, I'm Donnie! My foster mom calls me by so many nicknames like Bubba or Handsome. I am house trained, neutered and fully vacinated.

My foster mom says I’m a gentle giant, but sometimes I forget how big I am. I’m a little goofy and clumsy sometimes. They say I’m about 85 pounds. You would be surprised to know that I’m incredibly fearful of new people. My siblings all run to everyone, but I’m super nervous. I promise to warm up to you if you give me a chance. I like other dogs, if they like me. I’ve never met a cat, and I hear lots of dogs don’t like them, but I bet I would.

I am scared of the harness, so I prefer to run free in a fenced in yard. I will get used to my harness if you keep working with me! I am a really good boy so come meet me and find out!

Ava is about to be 2 yrs old, spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccines. She loves water! Baby pool, splash pad, hose, bath…you name it. She will frolic in the water all day if she could.

Despite her medical conditions, she has a lot of love to give. Ava had surgery to remove one of her kidneys due to a birth defect. She leaks urine but a dog in diapers is adorable.. She requires vet visits for bloodwork, and is on a special renal diet that comes from the vet. She is on medication for seizures, and has been seizure free for months now..

Her medical conditions should not stop Ava from finding her forever home. She is such a sweet girl and deserves a family of her own.

If you are interested in adopting Ava and making her part of your family, please complete our application on the Home Free Animal website today.

Sweet Seraphine is about one year old. Her behavior around humans is consistently friendly, and she is comfortable interacting with children. When socializing her with other dogs, slow introductions are always recommended. While her compatibility with cats remains uncertain, she enjoys playful interactions with her canine foster sister. Seraphine is trained in both housebreaking and crate training. It is important to acknowledge that Seraphine has "Special Needs" due to her reliance on seizure medication; however, her current treatment regimen has been effective in preventing seizures.

Our second dog for today is Seraphine! You may have seen our most recent fundraiser for her but we still need to raise more funds for her MRI. His epilepsy seems to be under control now which is great but we still need an MRI done to figure out what is going on with this beautiful girl. She will also need surgery on her eye at some point.

She is just a year old. She is learning manners and in a routine now doing great. She plays with her other foster sibling now. She is smart and wants love and structure. She is crate trained and house trained. She does well with kids. She is up for adoption and just needs someone who will have patience for her and home most of the day. Will that be you??
