Welcome to Heading Home K9 Rescue!

Did you see a dog that caught your eye? Ready to start the adoption process? Happy to help! Feel free to email the dog's listed contact with any questions you have...the dogs live in our homes with us so we know them very well.

Please fill out the preadopt application (Heading Home K9 Rescue Preadopt Application) which is the first step to meeting/adopting a dog from HHK9. We read through the application, check references, and once approved (we aim for 2-3 days to approve or deny depending on how quickly references reply), we set up a visit with you and the foster home or direct you to an adoption event to meet the dog(s). Fosters are more than happy to answer questions that arise. We all want a good match the first time, and a successful experience for the adopter and the dog.

After meeting, you can choose to adopt if it seems like a good match. You will be required to complete the adoption contract and pay their adoption fee online. There is a 7 day trial on all adoptions to ensure there is time for the dog adjust and the fit between the dog and your home is right. If the adoption does not work out in that 7 day period, your adoption fee is refunded. We encourage adopters to give it a MINIMUM of 5 days. Returning a dog before that period means it never had a chance to settle in and show you what the true personality is like. Moving dogs between homes is stressful and not in the dog's best interests. We are here to support you after adoption also, answering questions and helping make the process as positive as we can. We highly recommend you read the tips in this packet (Adoption FAQ) before bringing your new dog home...it will help greatly ease the transition and make it a positive experience for everyone!

Our adoption fees are non-negotiable and average about $500 for adults and $550 for puppies which includes their vet work-spay/neuter, vaccinations, heartworm testing (if old enough),microchip, deworming, and current preventatives. Often the vet costs far exceed the adoption fee, especially on our special needs dogs. We rely on adoption fees to be able to continue to rescue more dogs in need.

Want to help support the dogs of Heading Home K9 Rescue without ever leaving your house....not even leaving your computer?!--- Check out our Amazon.com wish list here! We have compiled a short list of our favorite and most used supplies like toys, leashes/collars, bones, etc. You can purchase online and it will ship right to us. Thank you for helping make the holiday special for all the wonderful dogs at HHK9!

HEADING HOME DOGS LOOKING FOR HOMES:


Name: Ari
Breed: Black Lab
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female
Size: Large
Description: Wanna go for a walk? Play fetch? Dog park? Then snuggle on the couch and share popcorn and watch a movie? If you said yes then Ari wants to meet you and be your new best friend! Ari is outgoing, down for any adventure, makes new friends easily, and will keep you laughing every day with her. Ari loves other dogs and would love a home with another dog to play with but that’s far from a requirement since she loves people too. Cats are a no-go for her though. They are way too fun to chase and she doesn’t really understand to be gentle with them. Ari is housetrained and crates well. She is about 8 months old.

Requirements: No special requirements

Adoption Fee: $600 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

Name: Ballet
Breed: Border Collie
Age: Puppy
Sex: Female
Size: Medium
Description: Ballet is a gorgeous Border Collie puppy who was brought into the shelter after she was found wandering after puppy curfew. No one came for her so she is now looking for a home who will love her, train her, and put that smartypants border collie brain to work. Ballet is smart as a whip and learns so fast. She absolutely thrives on being given something to do to. Puzzle toys, flirt pole, training—yes please! Ballet is typical puppy so housetraining is a work in progress but she keeps her crate clean for the workday and overnight. She is fantastic with other dogs but will herd them playfully which doesn’t always go over well with some dogs especially the little ones. She has not been around cats but would need a proper introduction to them and reminders that they aren’t for play. Ballet is of the mindset that everything is for play! Due to her breed she would be best with older kids or a herding breed experienced home who understands the tendencies to heel nip and chase kiddos to tell them where to go. If you are looking for a super fun dog who wants to join in on adventures, learn anything you want to teach, and keep you active and on your toes, Ballet wants to meet you!

Requirements: No special requirements

Adoption Fee: $650 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

Name: Baloo
Breed: Medium Mystery Mix
Age: Adult
Sex: Female
Size: Medium
Description: Baloo is a 30 lb who knows what mix. A bit of a shyer girl at first after spending over a month in the pound waiting for rescue, if you sit down with her and talk sweet expect her to be leaned into you and snuggled up within 30 seconds! She is a sweet gentle soul who has clearly had a home before with how well mannered she is. She is housetrained, crates well but doesn’t need it, and minds her manners in the house. She’s a medium energy girl and likes to run around the yard and go for walks but she’s equally content with hanging out and snoozing while her humans work or even better, hanging out on the couch with them getting some love. Baloo is good with other dogs though the rowdy ones overwhelm her and she’ll hide, ignores the cats, and loves all people though gravitates to the adults and gentle kids that match her nature. If you’re looking for a quieter gal to complete your life, Baloo is your girl!

Requirements: No special requirements

Adoption Fee: $500 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

She is housetrained and cratetrained and used to being crated for the workday.

Name: Cinna
Breed: Mystery Mix
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female
Size: ~55 lbs
Description: Cinna is a medium sized adult mixed up mutt found tied up alone with a tag that identified her however the shelter was unable to make contact with any potential owner. How she ended up there and then not reclaimed at the shelter we don’t know but what we do know is that she was sure loved and cared for prior (note: we will not allow any negativity towards her previous owners. We do not know their circumstances or how she ended up where she was). Cinna is very playful and good with other dogs and loves people. She is a bit of a velcro dog and wants to be where her people are. She’ll contentedly lay at your feet while you work, hang out in the yard while you do yard work, and politely follow you around the house. Cinna loves to go for walks and is learning to walk nicely on the leash. She is housetrained, does not enjoy being crated and would prefer the freedom to roam around the home. She is about 45 lbs, 1-2 years old.

Name: Cora
Breed: Pit Bull/ Bulldog Mix
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female
Size: Large
Description: Cora is a sweet pittie girl who found herself all alone in this cold weather. She is the typical young pittie who needs lots of exercise to be happy. Luckily she absolutely loves to play and gets along famously with our other foster, Batman. She is quite the puller on leash, but is learning that not pulling makes for a better walk. She sticks around off leash and absolutely loves romping around in our fenced yard. She is a bit bull headed (show me a pittie who isn't!), but is learning "leave it" and is very treat motivated. She crates well and is doing excellent on house training (a few accidents post shelter are expected). However, while she is not aggressive, she also will not back down when challenged so needs either slow introductions or a non alpha dog in the family. Dog-savvy cats are also preferred as she does show interest in them, but really wants to play. Cats are surprisingly resistant to playing with a big slobbery dog, however. If you have a friendly dog who loves wrestling, then Cora will fit right in! She would also love a situation where she was the only dog and received all the love and attention. Cora is about 45 lbs and 2 years old

Requirements: No special requirements

Adoption Fee: $500 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

Name: Dishes
Breed: Husky/ Shepherd Mix
Age: Puppy
Sex: Female
Size: Large when fully grown
Description: Dishes is a 5 month old Shepherd/ Husky purchased as a cute puppy and she sure is cute! Unfortunately dogs don’t train themselves and those cute puppy behaviors aren’t as cute in a bigger puppy who is knocking the kids down, chewing on everything, pottying all over, and darting out of the house. Dishes is a super outgoing, silly, mischief making pup. She is excellent with other dogs, loves humans though is a bit much for the little kids at her age with her lack of training, and needs a home without cats because of her overzealous interest in them. She is working on her housetraining, crates well, and is learning the basics of house manners and training. She would love a home who wants a social girl to train and love.

Requirements: No special requirements

Adoption Fee: $600 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

Name: Dizzy
Breed: Shepherd Mix
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female
Size: Large
Description: Dizzy is a whirlwind of activity and shenanigans! If you are looking for a peaceful pooch to laze around with you, this is not the girl for you. If you are looking for an active companion for hikes, dog sports, adventures, and learning anything you want to teach her, Dizzy is right up your alley! She is a Shepherd mix, about 45 lbs and 10 months old. She is housetrained and crates well for the workday as long as she has an outlet for her energy prior and something to do in the crate (kong, chew bone, puzzle toy, etc). Dizzy is great with other large breed dogs but no small animals or cats for her please! She is best placed with adults because she still has that puppy mindset where people are her personal jungle gym and she hasn’t quite learned that kids aren’t just bowling pins to knock down and then drive-by kiss on her way while she runs onto the next activity.

Requirements: No special requirements

Adoption Fee: $550 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

Name: Dolphin
Breed: Husky Mix
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female
Size: ~50 lbs
Description: Dolphin is an adorable husky type mix puppy who loves other dogs, loves to play, loves to sing the songs of her people, and loves to be held and loved on. She was an absolute favorite in the shelter and we can see why. Everyone falls in love with her! Dolphin is excellent with other dogs and would love a playmate. Dolphin is working on her housetraining and is used to being crated for the workday but does need a big push to get her in there. She needs a home without shared walls since she earned her name by her high pitched squeal she makes when she is crated or excited. Its adorable if you like husky noises but if you don’t its significantly less so.

Requirements: No cats

Adoption Fee: $600 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

Age: Adult
Sex: Male
Size: Large
Description: Eddie Munster is a blocky headed softie who wants nothing more than a home of his own. He is miserable in the shelter and so sad to be alone. He has the sweetest heart you’ll ever meet and spreads love wherever he goes. He loves people and absolutely melts in for attention. Lap dog he is not but don’t tell him that! He is great with other dogs and when the cat smacked out at him he cried and hid behind his handler though he would prefer a home without cats since he does find those who don't smack him a bit too interesting. Eddie is a sensitive soul through and through. He is housetrained, crates well, and minds his manners so well. We can’t say enough good about him. Eddie is about 75 lbs, 4 years old

Requirements: No special requirements

Adoption Fee: $500 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

Name: Eevee
Breed: Shiba Inu
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female
Size: Small
Description: Eevee was abandoned with a note telling the shelter her name, birthday, other info about her, and then ending with saying she was a very good girl, they love her so much, and to please find her a good home. Those notes break our hearts so much. Everything about Eevee from her temperament, to how clean and cared for she is, to the note tells us how deeply loved she was by her owners and how desperate their situation must have been to have to leave her. It is our job now to honor their request to find her a good home that loves her as much as they clearly did. Eevee is just over a year old. She is great with other dogs, cats, and all people. She is housetrained, crates well, and clearly used to being a loved house pooch. She has the silly puppy antics of tossing toys around and has the most adorable snow zoomies. She is a smaller gal, about 20 lbs and not expected to get much bigger.

Requirements: No special requirements

Adoption Fee: $650 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

Name: Gimmick
Breed: Husky/ Malinois Mix
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female
Size: Large
Description: Gimmick is a 9 month old husky/ Malinois mix. If you are familiar with either of those breeds we are sure you just cringed so hard thinking of that mix. To give some perspective, think of the most chaotic traits of both breeds. Yep, that’s Gimmick in a nutshell! She is wicked smart, loves to yell about anything and everything, and we’re not sure she ever stops moving. She is working hard to learn to have an off-switch, loves to learn new things though there’s a healthy dash of that husky stubbornness in there, and anything you want to do with her she is all in. All in, all the time is her motto in life. Running in the backyard? Full speed. Playing fetch? A contact sport according to her. Playing with other dogs? You mean those 4 legged bowling pins she just ran over while sprinting to break the world record. Gimmick is outgoing, loves people but is best with adults or very sturdy older teens. She is good with other large dogs but no small animal or cats. She is housetrained, crates well in a sturdy crate, and has absolutely zero manners in the house but her foster is working hard with her. She’s a future good girl for sure! If you like chaos and like to question your life choices, come meet Gimmick! She will not disappoint in either department.

Requirements: No special requirements

Adoption Fee: $550 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

Name: Gonzo
Breed: Shih Tzu/ Poodle Mix
Age: Adult
Sex: Male
Size: Small
Description: Gonzo asks you to forgive his appearance currently. He came in looking a little like a mop and is sporting a shelter groom special which means all the mats are gone but the haircut leaves a heck of a lot to be desired. He is a sweet shih tzu/poodle (best guess), about 2-3 years old, and a friendly guy. He is good with other dogs and ignores the cats. He is housetrained and crates well. Gonzo does not appear to shed so will need a home committed to grooming every 6-8 weeks as well as very frequent brushing.

Requirements: No special requirements

Adoption Fee: $650 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

She found herself in the shelter and is committed to passing along all the love in her body to everyone she meets! She is great with other dogs and loves people. She is full of wiggles and wags for everyone.

Name: Laina
Breed: Pit Bull Mix
Age: Adult
Sex: Female
Size: Medium
Description: Laina is a girl who's life got turned upside down when her owners became homeless and could no longer care for her. She came to us shy, scared, and slow to trust because her people were all she knew. Her foster managed to break through that shell though, and the dog we found underneath is an amazing girl. Once she gets to know you, she gives you her heart and soul. Her foster mom's shadow, Laina follows her everywhere! (Good luck trying to pee in peace again.) We're pretty sure her motto in life is "Every minute I'm not being pet is 60 seconds of waste!". She's a champion snuggler and the second your butt hits the couch she is there to help share the cushion, the blanket, and your popcorn! She loves the other dogs in her foster home and doesn't even mind the cats. She crates well for the work day. She sounds perfect you might say, so what's the catch? Laina is slow to accept meeting new people and needs a home with the experience to handle a girl with trust issues. Laina is not the type of pup who wants to go out to the dog park or the local block party. She's more the type of pup who likes having a small group of trusted friends (I'm pretty sure a lot of us can relate to that!), the whole quality vs quantity thing.

Requirements: Quiet adult home

Adoption Fee: $500 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

Name: Mazzie
Breed: Husky
Age: Adult
Sex: Female
Size: Medium
Description: Mazzie is a spitfire of a husky with endless love for her people, a bit of a mischievous streak, and a bit of the classic husky sass! She is an awesome girl. She loves to snuggle, loves to hang out with her people, and is always up for meeting new people. She is housetrained on a schedule, crates for the workday but hates the crate and needs either a sturdy crate or a dog-proofed area to stay. She loves her walks and loves to toss toys around and chew on bones. Her mischievous streak you may ask? This girl is a counter surfer! She is so talented in it she has been known to take dishes out of the sink so delicately in fact that she doesn’t even break them. So she needs someone to keep working on this and keeping things put away so she doesn’t have the opportunity to be inadvertently rewarded for it. Mazzie is excellent with dogs, loves all people, but does like to chase cats too much for her to be safe placed with them. She is a husky and does like to sing the song of her people when she has something to say so needs a home without a shared walls. She would be best with a fenced yard or someone committed to leashed walks (not tie-out) due to her willingness to be a typical husky and go exploring on her own.

Requirements: No special requirements

Adoption Fee: $500 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

Mouse loves other dogs, especially those that will play with him, and really relies on having a confident dog around to follow to help show him new things are ok.

Description: Plonker is a big boy with a big head and a big heart. He isn’t the sharpest tack and really embodies the joke “big head, no thoughts” but he makes up for it in heart. Plonker is friendly to everyone, goofy, loves butt scratches, and loves to flop out snoozing with his stumpy back legs behind him like a little frog. He is housetrained (though off the bat will need a belly band since he is a leg lifter), crates well for the workday, and minds his manners in the house. He loves bones and toys, happily waddles all around for walks, and then snores like a freight train relaxing.

Rookie is all about the snuggles, the fun, and finding the happiness in everything. That water bottle in the street that we see as litter…why that is his new chompy toss around toy!

Rookie is fabulous with dogs, loves people, and was curious about the cats but didn’t bother them.

Breed: Lab/Pit Bull Mix
Age: Adult
Sex: Male
Size: Large
Description: Rusty is a middle-aged Lab/Pit Bull mix who does not understand how he landed himself in the shelter. Quite frankly, we don’t either. This guy is wonderful! At about 7 years old he is well past the crazy puppy stages and settled into being a well-mannered, housetrained, cratetrained but doesn’t need it and prefers to be loose in the house, easy to live with type guy. He absolutely loves to go for walks and when you pull his leash out he turns right back into a puppy with excitement. He walks well on the leash after an initial bout of excitement pulling and knows basic commands. Rusty has lived with dogs and cats and does well with all. He is loving and friendly to all people. We can’t say enough good things about Rusty. He isn’t flashy in looks, he isn’t a cute little puppy anymore, but he’s got years and years of experience being a good boy to share with a forever home.

Name: Scotch
Breed: Lab Mix
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male
Size: Large
Description: Scotch is uniquely handsome Lab mix with bright blue eyes. His eyes are captivating and draw people in but his fabulous personality is what keeps people sticking around to be his best friend! He is absolutely in love with all people, thinks other dogs are immediate best friends, and is the greeter of the dog park. Scotch is a young guy at about a year so his obedience is a work in progress and his leash manners do leave a bit to be desired if we are being honest but he is super food motivated and responsive to training. He is housetrained, crates nicely for the workday, and as long as he’s had some energy burnt out of him and there’s appropriate chews around he minds his manners in the house. If he can’t find anything else or he’s feeling a bit cooped up, sometimes a shoe will make it’s way from by the door to somewhere else but Scotch has it on good authority that shoes are known to walk themselves places at times and he definitely didn’t have anything to do with it. He is about a year old, 50 lbs.

Requirements: No special requirements

A snuggle buddy human or canine. Routine walks or runs. Mental stimulation. And all the foodz and treats plz. He is very reliably housed trained. He knows sit, lay, go to your room, out of the kitchen, stay and wait (with a release word). He has been fostered with other dogs large and small. He likes them all but doesn’t have a clue about his size or personal space. He is fine crated and sometimes gated, but when we arrive home he will jump the gate and meet us at the door despite much discussion on staying in his room. He came to us all the way from a high kill shelter in San Antonio Texas. He’s not minding the snow (he thinks it’s delicious) or the cold. He’s a wonderful guy that is ready to be a part of a new adventure.

Breed: Lab Mix
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male
Size: Large
Description: Smeargle is a 7 month old lanky Lab mix with giant ears that look like he could fly. He can’t fly but his ears are excellent for petting and whispering secrets into. Like a good best friend he won’t tell those secrets either. Smeargle can confirm he is an excellent secret keeper. In fact he is such a good secret keeper he isn’t telling who stole the loaf of bread off the counter, him or his foster brother though we suspect this might be less about secret keeping and more about pleading the fifth. Smeargle is a loveable goofball. He loves to play with toys, loves to play with other dogs, and is interested but respectful of the cats and when one smacked him he wanted nothing more to do with it. He is finishing up learning the housetraining and crates well for the workday. He loves walks and playtime and is looking for an active home that wants to include him in all sorts of fun times.

Name: Snowman
Breed: Maltese/ Poodle Mix
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male
Size: Small
Description: Snowman is a young Maltese/Poodle mix named because he was found in the middle of the March snowstorm skinny, soaking wet, and looking about as pathetic and sad as it gets. He’d have every reason in the world to be crabby or snippy and yet, Snowman is the sweetest cuddler you can ever ask to meet. He melts into you for the slightest bit of love and affection. Forget personal space with this guy, he wants to crawl in your skin and be loved forever. Snowman is housetrained though in the cold, snowy days needs a bit of a push to go out and prefers you go with him and he crates very well. He is a quieter boy but coming out of his shell with love and TLC. He is good with other dogs but the rowdy ones make him nervous a bit and he curls into a tiny ball. He doesn’t mind the kitties and has been sweet and friendly to the kids he’s met but again the rowdy ones tend to make him a bit nervous and he curls himself into a ball so he would prefer a quieter home like himself.

Requirements: No special requirements

He loves people, he loves other dogs, and he even loves the cats even though they don’t feel the same. Sock Puppet is a smart, very responsive puppy to training but he is just a pup after all so his home should be prepared to teach him all the basics and how to be the best canine citizen he can be.

Sex: Female
Size: Medium
Description: Stuffy is a husky/Pomeranian who is everything a Pomsky should be—good, bad, and everything in between. If you like a dog with lots of personality, mischief, and sass then you will love Stuffy. If you want a quiet, mellow dog who always minds and never talks back then Stuffy is not for you. She is heavy on the husky in looks but in a smaller, petite package. Stuffy adores other dogs and loves to play with them. She is a bit pushy in play and overwhelming to calm dogs because she doesn’t take no for an answer—because who wouldn’t want to play with her? For a playful dog she is a best friend since she can go on and on running and wrestling. Stuffy adores people and is tolerant of everything. She frequently gets picked up to get put in her kennel and doesn’t even mind “air jail”. Will she tell you her opinions of being locked up…absolutely. Stuffy is not for apartments or shared walls unless your neighbors too would like to hear her opinions shouted. She is housetrained, crates for the workday, and does mind her manners in the house as best as her little mischievous self can—she doesn’t know how the trash can got tipped over or why the barbie doesn’t have feet anymore but definitely probably was not her ;). Stuffy will bring so much love, happy chaos, and fun to any house lucky enough to choose her.

Requirements: Training sign up recommended

He thinks the cats are a bit scary in a way that makes him give them a wide berth. He is housetrained, crates well for the workday, and minds his manners well in the house. He does seem a bit like he’s been limited in his life experiences as toys absolutely baffle him and if you raise your voice or your hand too fast it sends him skittering, but he hands his heart over so completely after a few kind words.

Breed: Husky
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male
Size: Large
Description: Vega is a gorgeous Husky with all the husky traits we know and love—aloof, independent, silly, vocal, and a comedian. He is a typical my-way-or-the-highway husky and if you decide to do it differently, he will yell at you about it in the more hilarious way. Vega is great with other dogs and loves to play with them. He takes a bit to warm up to new people, never mean, but a bit wary. With people he knows though, he is a lovebug and will snuggle right up next to you. He is a bit flinchy with fast movements near his head or his collar being messed with but with the people he knows well that is already fading as he learns to trust. He appears to be housetrained but is in a shelter setting so might need a refresher when he gets into a home. He is getting very stressed in the shelter and has started to chew on his tail for comfort. He has been in the shelter for nearly 2 months and his time is running out. We cannot take him into rescue without a committed foster home or foster to adopt.

Requirements: No special requirements
