Grace was a local owner surrender who came to us pregnant. We all took bets and lost because she had TEN puppies! She is a pittie mix, approx 3 years old, and 45lb. She loves humans and is OK with other dogs with proper introductions. She does not like kitties. She has been around kids 5 and older. Unfortunately, Grace's previous owners did not keep her on heartworm prevention. She will be ready for her forever home mid to late April once she is spayed, receives her vaccinations and finishes heartworm treatment. From her foster mom: "Grace is an itty bitty pocket pittie at 43 lbs. As she recovers from her litter of 10 puppies, the vet expects her to put on some much needed weight, but she will still be very petite for a pittie mix. Grace is an incredibly sweet pup, who loves her toys (especially ones that squeak) and snuggling on the couch. As she recovers from nursing 10 babies, the better she feels and the more energy she has for playing. Grace dislikes the cold and is only willing to do short walks in a sweater or jacket. She loves running in the backyard, though, where she can move fast enough to keep warm, and chasing toys inside. Grace almost never barks and is incredibly easy to handle. She patiently allows us to put on and take off her sweaters, lets us clean her paws every time we come back inside, and is okay with us moving her food or taking a toy why she is eating or playing. When she wants attention, she will sometimes get mouthy, but we are working on it, and she is very gentle with her mouth when she does use it. While we have not personally seen her with children, based on her patience and willingness to be handled, we think she will do well in a house with kids, as long as we and they continue to work on not mouthing things." Please note: We do not have a physical facility and the dogs are not located in Hudson, NH. We are a foster-based rescue and dogs can be located anywhere in New England. All adopters must be pre-approved to arrange a meet and greet, and the adopter is expected to travel to the dog's location. We do not transport once the dogs arrive in New England. Applications must be submitted at HarveysHope.org for consideration. We estimate it will be 1-2 weeks before you hear from one of our volunteers. Thank you!
