Helping Hearts & Healing Tails Animal Rescue We are a nonprofit 501(c)3 foster based rescue (meaning we don’t have a physical location). We are 100% volunteer. We completely rely on donations to function.
(2)

Most importantly this rescue is dedicated to helping animals in the Ligonier PA area and surrounding communities find loving, forever homes. It is our goal to assist in rescuing and rehoming any animals in need. We are a foster based rescue and can only take in so many animals at a given point in time, but if we are full we will try to assist in other arrangements for any animals in need. It is our hope that someday everyone will learn to be responsible pet owners and there will be no need for us, until then, we will be here to help those in need. We are a not for profit charity and have 501(c)(3) status. Anyone interested in donating to the rescue can send monetary donations via PayPal at [email protected] or to HHHT PO Box 42 Stahlstown, PA 15687. Donations of animal supplies are also welcome and can be dropped off at Tobias Auto Tag and Notary in Ligonier.

Senior doesn’t mean finished. ❤️

Chloe is 8. Brock is around 10.

They still play. They still love their toys. They still run, explore, act ridiculous, and have plenty of life left to live.

What they don’t have is a home.

Both are fully vetted, housebroken and crate trained. Chloe needs a home without cats or small dogs. Brock is dog selective, but generally does better with female dogs.

They aren’t asking for a place to spend their last days. They’re asking for someone to stop wasting the good ones they still have.

Chloe and Brock are ready.

Please share. Their people may simply not have seen them yet. Apply to adopt on our website. Helpingheartshealingtails.org

💩S**T HAPPENS. PLEASE DONATE.💩

Apparently today is synchronized pooping day at HHHT.

Opie started it.

Then Knox said, “Hold my toy.”

And because absolutely no one in this house is capable of doing anything with dignity, both of them maintained direct eye contact with me while doing it.

So here we are.

We owe an astronomical amount of money in veterinary bills and boarding. We have dogs that need ongoing medical care. We have food, medications, supplies, and approximately 47 billion other expenses that are piling up faster than s**t in a yard full of rescue dogs. (Yes we’re officially wearing boots).

The problem is, donations have slowed to a trickle and fundraisers haven’t been bringing in what they used to. The bills certainly haven’t gotten the memo though. They just keep coming.

We can’t keep paying out thousands of dollars while only bringing in hundreds. The math simply doesn’t math.

In other words: we are financially constipated.

And we need your help getting things moving.

So we’re launching the S**T HAPPENS FUNDRAISER. 💩

Donate $5 because Opie pooped.
Donate $10 because Knox joined him.
Donate $20 because I had the questionable judgment to photograph BOTH OF THEM.
Donate $50 because you respect the artistic integrity of two dogs taking a s**t while staring directly into my soul.

And if you can’t donate, share the s**t out of this post.

Literally.

Every dollar helps us keep doing what we do: taking the cruelty/neglect cases, medical cases, the broken ones, the complicated ones, the seniors, the special-needs dogs, and all the other little beautiful disasters who somehow find their way to us.

💩The dogs provide the s**t. 💩

🩺We provide the shovel. (And the veterinary care. And the supplies). 🩺

💵You guys help us pay for it.

Seems fair. 🤷‍♀️💩

RENZO IS LOOKING FOR A FAMILY. PREFERABLY ONE WITH STURDY FURNITURE.

Please do not allow the handsome face and soulful brown eyes to mislead you.

Renzo is approximately 3 years old and, medically speaking, we believe his brain is located somewhere in another county.

He is a giant, lovable idiot.

Renzo LOVES other dogs. And by loves, we mean he would very much like another dog who appreciates his particular brand of friendship: playing, wrestling, running around, and occasionally making decisions together that neither party has thought through.

He doesn’t seem particularly bothered by cats, either.

Kids are a little more questionable, not because Renzo dislikes them, but because Renzo has not yet discovered that other living creatures are affected by physics. He jumps. He climbs. He barrels through things. Personal space is merely a suggestion.

He’s also still a little mouthy when he gets excited. He’s gotten so much better, but sometimes the happiness gets too large for his body and leaks out through his mouth.

On the responsible-adult portion of his résumé, Renzo appears to be housebroken AND crate trained. 🎉

He is completely vetted and is scheduled to be neutered in October.

What Renzo really needs is someone who appreciates a big, playful, ridiculous dog and will continue helping him polish up those last few manners.

He’s affectionate. He’s social. He’s hilarious. He loves to play. And underneath approximately 73 layers of dumbassery is a genuinely wonderful dog who has made a ton of progress.

Renzo is ready for somebody to look at this giant do**us and say, “Yep. That idiot belongs with us.” ❤️

Please SHARE Renzo. His family is out there somewhere, probably reinforcing their furniture as we speak.

Do you have hobbies? Excellent. Knox would like to become all of them.

Meet Knox, a young Belgian Malinois who is handsome, ridiculously smart, athletic, affectionate, and approximately 93% ears and poor decisions.

Knox LOVES toys. Balls, rings, stuffies… if it can be carried, chased, thrown, or dramatically murdered, he’s interested.

He has exactly the energy you’d expect from a young Malinois, so he’s looking for someone who understands that adopting a working breed is less “I would like a pretty dog” and more “I have voluntarily acquired a second job with teeth.”

Underneath all that Malinois nonsense is a genuinely great dog who is ready for a home of his own. ❤️

Knox is neutered and available for adoption through Helping Hearts & Healing Tails Animal Rescue in Pennsylvania.

Think you’re Knox’s kind of person? Send us a message or submit an application on our website. Helpingheartshealingtails.org

And please share. Somewhere out there is a person with entirely too much free time, and we need to find them. 😂

🦮 Prior breed experience required for adoption.

No, seriously. She’s happy. 😂
This is Asha’s completely normal and reasonable way of saying PLAY WITH ME.

The barking says square up.
The nub says BEST DAY EVER. 💀

Asha is adoptable through Helping Hearts & Healing Tails in PA. ❤️

Watch the nub. The nub never lies.

RUB. THE. F&@$ #!g. BELLY. JANET.

Siris has been waiting for approximately seven seconds and frankly, the service around here is unacceptable.

This is Siris.

Siris is about a year old, a Bull Terrier mix, and appears to have been assembled almost entirely from ears, audacity, and unreasonable expectations.

She recently attended an adoption event where she bravely endured the horrors of meeting people, receiving attention, walking around, and being told repeatedly that she was a very good girl.

It was grueling.

Eventually she could take no more.

She threw herself onto the pavement, flipped over, and presented the belly.

The belly does not rub itself, Janet.

Siris is energetic, hilarious, stubborn, mouthy when she gets excited, and approximately 73% personality by body weight. She loves people and attention and has absolutely no problem communicating when she believes you could be doing a better job of providing either.

She also takes food VERY seriously and needs to be fed separately from other animals. Siris does not subscribe to the concept of communal dining. What belongs to Siris belongs to Siris. What belongs to you will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

She needs a home that understands young, energetic dogs and won’t expect her to arrive as a perfectly polished little potato. She’s still got some growing up to do, some manners to work on, and enough personality to keep everyone thoroughly entertained in the meantime.

And really…

LOOK AT HER.

The ears.
The smile.
The complete lack of dignity.

Somewhere out there is a person whose life is missing exactly this level of ridiculousness.

It could be you.

Now rub the f&!$ # belly.

Rooney would like everyone to know that she is currently being held WITHOUT BAIL despite being innocent of all charges.

Her alleged crimes include:
being ridiculously cute,
having criminally adorable feet,
falling asleep during her own adoption event,
and somehow being the last puppy in her litter without a home.

She demands immediate release.

Preferably directly into your house.

Applications are now being accepted for Rooney’s accomplice adopter. 😂 Apply at helpingheartshealingtails.org

🚨 SOMEHOW, ROONEY IS THE LAST PUPPY LEFT. 🚨

We have reviewed the evidence. We have examined the face. We have consulted the tiny pink-and-black nose.

We have no idea how this happened.

All of Rooney’s siblings have found their families, and this little potato is still waiting for hers. 🥺

Rooney is about 3 months old and is one of those ridiculously easy puppies who seems to just roll with life. She’s playful, sweet, social, and has been doing great with other dogs. She can romp around with her buddies, investigate whatever nonsense is happening nearby, and then promptly power down like somebody unplugged her.

She even attended an event today wearing her ADOPT ME bandana and tried to handle her own advertising.

Unfortunately, as you can see in Exhibit C, she fell asleep on the job.

Ma’am. You are the LAST ONE. We need a little more hustle. 😂

Rooney is looking for a family of her very own. Her siblings already got theirs, and we would really love to see this sweet little girl get her turn.

Please share Rooney. Apparently we are now responsible for her entire marketing department because our employee has chosen ✨nap✨. 😂💙
