As you know, House with a Heart is a Sanctuary for senior pets.  Our residents have found their forever home here and are loved until the end of their lifetimes.  Unfortunately, space and funds are limited and we have to decline many requests to accept new residents.  It truly hurts our hearts to have to say "no," but it's necessary to enable us to provide the outstanding care our residents so richly deserve.

Still, we wanted to do more for the pets we could not admit to the Sanctuary.  So we created our Senior Pet Safety Net.  This is a project that enables us to post stories about senior dogs and cats that need loving homes to our many Facebook and email followers.  Our team of counselors works hard to locate resources for those who need to relinquish their pets or to allow them to solve issues that may make it possible to keep their pets.  Whenever possible, we follow up on these posts to track outcomes.

We're happy to report that we have established another program that will assist in finding forever homes for pets.  We're proud to announce the launch of The Buster's Buddies Project, which permits HWAH to foster pups for two Maryland Rescue groups.  These dogs can be of any age and will stay at the Sanctuary until their forever homes are found.  We will post their bios and keep you up-to-date on their lives at HWAH.  Any one interested in potentially adopting one of these pups can make an appointment with HWAH to visit and meet the foster, then go to the appropriate website and complete the adoption application.
