Harley’s Story

Posted by admin on 08 Mar 2010 | Tagged as: Contest, Harley's Story, Rescued Animals

I’m Harley, a 3-1/2 year old Weimaraner.  I was surrendered to Heartland Animal Shelter in Northbrook Illinois along with 4 of my siblings by a breeder that couldn’t find us a home.  My shelter name was “Wild Thing”, which should give you a clue about me. I was a bouncy, playful guy that was given lots of love and attention in my days at the shelter.

Chevy’s Adoption Story

Posted by admin on 01 Feb 2009 | Tagged as: Adoption, Chevy, Contest

My husband and I had said that when we moved back home, we’d get a second dog to keep our Chase (BC mix) company. So we shopped around. And around and around. We didn’t want to get the first puppy we saw and after week’s of searching, the local Humane Society had our new addition. A little ball of black and white fur that was so cute and friendly and perfect. So we adopted her and took her home. We named her Chevy – the doggins would forever more be known as Chevy and Chase.
