Homeward Bound Pet of the Week: Cacao
Fast & Furriest February 17, 2022Meet Cacao, a sweet little 32# girl who had been obtained for the kids who soon grew bored with the day-to-day care of a dog. The parents then surrendered her to animal control. Little Miss C is a very sweet dog; shy at first but lights up when she gets to know you; especially if you want to play! We believe her to be a schnauzer mix. She will be completely vetted on 2/25.

Homeward Bound Pet of the Week: Gordy
Fast & Furriest January 20, 2022Meet Gordy, a 6# chi who was born in July, 2021. He was surrendered along with 2 other chi’s who were living outside. Gordy is a loving little boy, very active and playful. He is getting along well with the fosters’ 2 male dogs. Because of his size and age, we would not recommend little children. Gordy is in a foster home where he is being house trained. He loves to take leash walks and snuggling in a blanket.

Homeward Bound Pet of the Week: Lula Belle
Community January 3, 2022Meet Lula Belle; a 2 ½ year old; 21 lb. beagle (mix??) who had lived in a terrible hoarding situation with 20 other dogs. When rescued from that home, she found herself in a shelter for a year living in a crate/run and let out 3 times a day. LB has been with HBPR since 11/20/21. She is residing comfortably in a foster home with 3 dogs and a cat. The fosters are retired and home most of the time. At this time, a harness and leash is kept on her 24/7; in order to get her outside for walks. Her leash walking is fine and enjoys sniffing the new smells. LB has improved social skills to the point we feel she is ready for a forever home with a hero who will have the time and patience that it’ll take for her to bond. (She bonded quickly to her foster dad and lets the rest of us in s-l-o-w-l-y.) Another dog and a fenced yard would be an ideal home for LB. Every day is a new discovery for her and us!

Homeward Bound Pet of the Week: Romi
Community December 17, 2021An unfortunate tale for this little guy named Romi. He and his family found themselves without a home. Once his family found temporary shelter, Romi was not welcome there. We made him welcome at our shelter and found a very sweet, loving dog who enjoys the company of everyone; cats, dogs and kids. He is around 10 years old; 13 lbs. and is ready for immediate adoption. Come on! Let’s get Romi home for Christmas!

Homeward Bound Pet of the Week: Cocoa Puffs
Community December 10, 2021What’s your kryptonite? Mine are head tilts and cute underbites. Cocoa Puffs is a winner in both of those categories. She had been an owner surrender at animal control; reason unknown. CP is around 13 months old; around 42 lbs., lots of puppy exuberance, house trained, people pleaser and just a fun girl! She supposedly gets along with children and was told she prefers the company of male dogs but the previous shelter had her playing with another girl and she did fine.

Cocoa Puffs obviously ADORES children! Look at her with one of her new friends!
Homeward Bound Pet of the Week: Lulu Belle
Community December 3, 2021Meet Lulu Belle, a 2 ½ year old beagle mix who weighs in at 21 lbs. At first glance, you’ll see her pretty face but what you don’t see is the suffering she had in the past as part of a hoarding/abuse case and living in a shelter for a year without anyone showing interest in adopting her or her 2 siblings. LB is in a foster home now and is very comfortable with the fosters’ 4 dogs and cat. In less than a week, she started showing signs of trusting humans and allowed petting without getting direct eye contact. In one week, we found out that she loves snacks and has bonded with her foster dad who makes liver treats! In 10 days, she was on foster dad’s lap giving puppy kisses. There’s hope for her future but will have to be a family with a lot of patience as they introduce Lulu Belle to the world. She is now walking well on a leash and wears a harness. A fenced yard and a mature dog would be perfect to show her how to be a dog.

Homeward Bound Pet Of The Week: Petey
Fast & Furriest May 9, 2021This handsome boy, Petey, is 44 lbs. of love and snuggles. Petey’s sordid past does not keep him from smiling at everyone he meets! He is house trained, enjoys walking on a leash, chewing on squeak toys and just hanging out next to you. Petey would love to be able to run and play but because he is heartworm positive, his activity level must be kept to a minimum for the next few months. Not to worry about the treatment expense, HBPR takes care of that. Our goal is to get him healthy and a forever home.
