Questions to ask yourself BEFORE adopting a pet.


Please be aware that the Heartland Humane Society does not have a physical facility at this time, but we do have an office now! 

We rely on our Foster Network to provide homes for the animals that come under our care. 

We can also post lost/missing pets & found animals on this site in hopes of finding their owners or a new home.

Feel free to contact us by phone or by email.

KIERA

This adorable little girl is a Boxer/Collie mix who was born approximately Aug. 2008.  She is a beautiful dog who, with the right home, will be a wonderful companion and be loyal and loving.  She is a bit shy, but with attention and patience will come around just fine.  She has been good with other dogs and even OK with cats.  Kiera would love to have a nice home where someone will play with her and give her lots of attention.  She and her littermates, Princess and Taffy are all wonderful pups who deserve a terrific home.

PRINCESS

Princess is a real sweetheart, even though a bit shy still.  She and her littermates, Taffy and Kiera, are great little pups, born around Aug 2008.  Very sweet and loving.  Seem to want to just be a loyal companion and be treated with love and respect.  Given some human compassion and a little socialization, she will be a super dog and make a great addition to any family.

 

TUBBS  

He's a small dog of about 20 pounds, white and black and very cute & friendly.  We think he's some Heinz 57 mixture of Jack Russell. He's fully house broke and very calm indoors.  He's really calm all of the time, actually, so the Jack Russell doesn't seem to show through too much.  He is up to date on all his shots and is neutered.  He has a couple flaws, but they are manageable.  He likes to chase things.  Around here that means cats and dogs.  Our cats just claw him and our dogs just run him over, so that hasn't been a problem and he hasn't offered to chase our horses.  He is food and toy protective, but doesn't fight.

RAY

 How could you not fall in love with this face? Ray is the sweetest little guy who just wants to please you and live a happy life with someone who will love him and play with him.  He was found as a stray with a terrible open wound under his armpit.  He quickly grabbed the hearts of all who saw him because of his wonderful, sweet disposition.  Ray's wounds were treated, with thanks to his now sponsor, Brad Schanche. He has recovered nicely and is having fun in his new foster home.  All his vaccinations are up to date and he is neutered.  He is good with other dogs and children. He has had some issues with cats, but mostly all in play that got too rough.  He is learning to better socialize with them though.                                            

NIPSY

     

Nipsy is a male mixed breed dog who was rescued from very poor living conditions.  He is not very old, maybe just over 1 year, and is not a very big dog- just a nice medium size dog.  He is neutered and vaccinations up to date and back to good health. Nipsy is great with kids and likes other dogs too. He has no food or toy aggressions and plays nice with others.  He loves lots of attention.

CINNAMON

Cinnamon is approximately 2- 2 1/2 years old. She would do best in a home with a fenced yard and probably would be a good house dog.  Seems to be familiar with being indoors.  Cinnamon is working on her manners around other animals, sometimes she is fine, but other times she likes to be boss.  She does not do well with poultry if she is able to get at them, and will chase cows given the opportunity. These behaviors are being worked on and with time and attention, could probably be resolved.   She is pretty vocal when she is not getting what she wants, which is attention. She is fine with kids and loves to go for her morning walks.  She would most certainly like to be the only dog in her new home so she can get all the belly rubs and all the treats to herself. She does seem to prefer small dogs over big dogs.  She is spayed and up to date on her vaccinations.
