How long do the dogs typically stay at HFH before finding a home?
Well, it all depends on the dog! They tell us when they are ready to find a home. We usually keep a dog a minimum of 2 weeks. This gives them a chance to relax in a home-like environment to prepare them for their new home. During the initial 2 week period, we also provide all the necessary medical care, deworming, socialization, grooming and of course providing them with lots of food, toys, and love!!! Some of the dogs need a little longer to relax. We allow as much time as needed for their little personalities to blossom! Our goal, as always, is to find them a loving permanent home as soon as possible. However, we will assess each case individually and will never put the well being of the dogs in jeopardy. We do have some dogs that stay with us for a few months, some as long as a year, before they find the right home. So, your ongoing support is important to us!
