Pow may have had a rough start, judging by some of his scars - but he’s well on his way to a happier life! His luck began to change one cold, December day when he ran into the Food Lion on Alamance Church Rd in Greensboro, seeking warmth and help. GCAS Animal Control picked him up and brought him to the shelter, even allowing him to ride shotgun on the way there! After some time at GCAS he began to show signs of stress and was able to go to foster.

While in foster, we’ve learned that this guy is the total package:
- House trained
- Crate trained
- Walks nicely on leash
- Knows “sit” (especially if snacks are involved)
- Treat and toy motivated (fetch = his love language)

Once he warms up, Powerade is goofy, playful, and so affectionate. He loves a good game of fetch just as much as he loves melting into you for snuggles. He will follow you room to room just to make sure he’s not missing out (can we say FOMO?)

Pow does have a couple of endearing quirks:

Occasionally jumps up when he’s excited, but redirects beautifully into a sit

Can be a little “mouthy” in an affectionate, playful way—he uses his mouth to explore the world, and responds well to gentle correction

Powerade would thrive in a home that understands his sensitive side:

Has done well with kids as young as 3, but due to his size and occasional jumping up would likely do best with older kids or adults

No cats or small animals (that retriever instinct is strong)

Could potentially live with another dog with very slow, thoughtful introductions, but may also be happiest as your one-and-only. He has done well with other dogs in public spaces and frequently “buddy walks” with friends in the neighborhood.

Health note: Powerade previously tested heartworm positive while at the shelter, but now has a negative test!

What makes Powerade truly special is his heart. This boy has been through a lot, but you’d never know it by how deeply he loves. He is trusting, loyal, and endlessly affectionate—a certified good boy who just wants someone to belong to.

If you’re looking for a sweet, snuggly shadow with a playful streak and a heart of gold… Powerade might just be your perfect match.

When he entered rescue, Hank needed extensive dental care and tested positive for heartworm. He is receiving all necessary treatment, and he will complete every step before leaving foster care. Through it all, he has remained patient, affectionate, and eager to be close to the humans who show him compassion.

Hank gets along wonderfully with other dogs and enjoys their company. His calm, friendly demeanor makes him an easy companion, whether he’s relaxing at your feet or exploring the yard with a canine friend.

This brave boy is ready for a home where he can finally experience the safety, comfort, and love he’s always deserved. If you’re looking for a deeply sweet, resilient dog who will reward your kindness with unwavering loyalty, Hank may be the perfect match.

As a beagle, Hank requires a securely fenced yard with physical fencing attached to the home. He has been neutered, microchipped, and is fully vaccinated.

Joey loves chasing dragonflies and army-crawling in tall grass. He loves sprinting in the yard and chewing on collagen sticks and yak cheese. He especially loves his snuffle mat!
There are a few quirks about Joey that will take patience from his future humans. Although he has learned to toilet outdoors, he hasn’t quite gotten over some handling issues. Fear and excitement cause him to have little accidents. Thankfully, he is very small and has gotten used to wearing a belly band. Joey also needs to be closely watched as he enjoys jumping from high places and will need to be discouraged from parkouring. But hey, that means he might be great for an agility course!

Joey is young and acts like a puppy, so obedience training is a must. He should not be in a home with children younger than 10. He enjoys sprinting outside and would be best in a home with a big, physically-fenced yard.

Mai Mai is a delightful 6-year-old female Japanese Chin weighing 14 pounds. She is a gentle, sweet girl with a charming personality who gets along wonderfully with other dogs.

True to her breed, Mai Mai has some endearing and unique quirks! She does the classic Japanese Chin "chin wave," happily waving her front paws to greet you or get your attention. She is also meticulously tidy and loves to groom herself just like a cat.

Mai Mai is searching for a loving home with a securely fenced yard, as she is not yet leash-trained and needs a safe outdoor space to explore at her own pace. She would thrive in a patient household that can help her continue to build confidence and learn new routines.

If you are looking for a tender, loving companion to add warmth and joy to your home, Mai Mai is ready to win your heart!

Please contact h2hadoptions@gmail.com directly to inquire about adopting Mai Mai. There is an application process and an adoption fee.

WE REQUIRE AN ALL-ADULT HOME WITH A SECURELY FENCED YARD. The secure fence must be attached to the home, 4 feet or higher with gaps with no larger than 2.5 inches. An invisible fence, enclosed patio or terrace without grass, temporary fencing, dog pens or dog lots or community shared fencing (dog park) are NOT considered secure fencing. If your fencing has "puppy pickets" (or is supplemented with garden fencing) it needs to be at least 36 inches high from the ground up AT THE LOWEST POINT. No exceptions.

We are an all-volunteer organization, and in addition to saving dogs, we have other responsibilities, so we appreciate your patience and understanding during this process. Response time can take up to 5 business.

Please inquire only if you are willing to come to Greensboro, NC to meet the dog after we schedule your home visit. We do not ship dogs or put them on transports.

Veterinary Care: All Hart-2-Heart Rescue foster dogs are spayed/neutered, current on heartworm prevention, parvo/distemper, bordetella, and rabies vaccines, and are professionally groomed. As needed, our foster dogs have teeth cleanings, extractions, bloodwork and other diagnostic testing.

Adoption Fee: $650

Chip is an adorable 4-year-old Yorkie mix weighing 9 pounds. His coarse coat is low maintenance and low to no shed.

Chip is an active, athletic terrier who loves toys and is good at entertaining himself. He would make a great companion for someone who enjoys walking or is interested in clicker training. Like most terriers, he'll bark when there's something worth announcing, and he is undeterred by his tiny size.

Chip is initially unsure when he meets new people, but learned quickly to trust his foster mom and other women. He is slower to trust men, so his adopter will need to be patient and allow him time to adjust at his pace.

Because Chip is quick and can dart through open doors, his new family must be vigilant around exterior doorways.

The ideal home for Chip would be with someone who has experience going slow and moving at Chip’s pace and wants to bond with a dog through training and enrichment activities.
Chip has made great progress with house training in his foster home, and needs a patient person to continue his routine and training.

Chip will do best as an only dog; however, he has learned to co-exist peacefully in his foster home.

Please email h2hadoptions@gmail.com directly. There is an application process and a $500 adoption fee.

She walks nicely on a leash with very little pulling and is highly food and treat motivated, always taking treats gently. She loves her toys, especially a good game of fetch!

Polly already knows several commands, including sit, shake, come, down, kiss, walk, no, and crate.

She would thrive as the only pet in the home. While she is non-reactive to dogs and cats when on a leash, she is not a fan of living with cats. Polly also loves the water! She enjoys swimming and has even gone paddle boating with a previous foster.

Her ideal home would have older children or teenagers and a securely fenced yard where she can run, play, and enjoy life to the fullest.

if you are interested in Polly, please complete an adoption application at lastdaydogs.com

And this handsome guy is already a certified good boy! Oggie is
fully house- and crate-trained
and knows his basic commands, including
sit, shake, down and crate
. He’s also a huge fan of car rides and can turn just about any toy into a fun dissection project!

Oggie is a social butterfly and
loves other dogs
. If he spots a potential dog friend, though, his recall can mysteriously disappear! He can also get a little
mouthy when he’s excited
, so because he is a strong, enthusiastic boy who sometimes forgets just how big he is, he needs an
experienced big-dog adopter
who can provide confident leadership and continue working with him on his manners and training.

Oggie would do best with
older, dog-savvy kids
who are comfortable around large dogs. A resident dog who enjoys having a big, goofy playmate would be a wonderful bonus!

If you’re ready for a gentle giant who will fill your life with
love, laughs, heavy leans, goofy antics and endless cuddles
, Oggie is ready to meet you. Just bring the chest and belly scratches! ❤️

Oggie is looking for his forever adopter!

Chase can be shy when you first meet him. He came to us as a breeder-release dog, having never lived in a home as someone’s beloved pet. Many dogs like this have never been on a leash or set foot on grass to potty. Chase was a little reserved in the beginning, but since adjusting to his foster family, he has really come to life.

Chase is smart and curious. He’s always smiling and gets excited when you talk or play chase with him. He loves to play with the other dogs in his foster home. We require his adoptive home to have another small social dog under 12lbs so he can continue to watch and learn from another dog in the home.

Chase is still learning house-training and leash walking, so he will need someone with time and patience to help him be successful. We require an all-adult home with a small, securely fenced yard. The fenced yard is not so he can be left alone, but to help with house-training, since most pups do not want someone hovering over them when trying to potty. Chase is trying to learn how to use stairs, so we prefer a home with limited to no stairs.

There is an application process and adoption fee.

WE REQUIRE AN ALL-ADULT HOME WITH A SECURELY FENCED YARD. The secure fence must be attached to the home, 4 feet or higher with gaps with no larger than 1.5 inches. An invisible fence, enclosed patio or terrace without grass, temporary fencing, dog pens or dog lots or community shared fencing (dog park) are NOT considered secure fencing. If your fencing has "puppy pickets" (or is supplemented with garden fencing) it needs to be at least 36 inches high from the ground up AT THE LOWEST POINT. No exceptions.

Etta has been spayed, micro chipped, and is up to date on all preventative medications. She also had a soft palate surgery and nasal stenosis, to help her breathe better. She has allergies, so she will require regular visits to the vet to deal with them, as needed. She will need to stay on a fatty acid and joint supplement, and will require special food and daily probiotics- for life. There is no such thing as an inexpensive French Bulldog, so please be sure you not only have the means- but the willingness, to afford her CARE. An experienced dog owner is a must (with an impeccable vet reference), preference will be given to those who are familiar with Brachycephalic breeds and the special care they require.

Etta has occasional zoomies, and she would love another dog to wrestle with (she will adjust her play to the size of her companion), and loves a leisurely early morning walk when the temperature is safe for her to be outside- but otherwise she is a snoring, snorting, flatulence filled- couch potato. She adores her people, so someone who isn't gone for long hours is a plus. When you are gone, she is crate trained and loves a stuffed kong to keep her busy. She is good with cats, but would do best with a dog savvy cat. Etta is a "private pooper", she chooses the outskirts of the yard to potty, so she requires a secure fenced in yard (physical fencing only, please) to keep up her good potty habits. All children in the home should be 10 and over, she gets a bit too excited with wee children.

For the RIGHT home, Etta will be a fabulous addition. She has spent her limited time on this earth giving everything to humans who didn't appreciate her. Now it's Etta's turn to have her needs met. We know her wish list is long, we aren't looking for average- Etta deserves the BEST.

While she has so much love to give, she will need a patient and understanding family who can help her continue building confidence. New environments and unfamiliar situations can make her nervous, and she is sometimes reactive when seeing people through a barrier like a window or gate. She would be happiest in a calm home without young children. Because she is uneasy around other animals, she would do best as the only dog in the home, where she can feel safe and secure without added stress. Madi is not a fan of cats and should be in a cat-free home.
