PROJECT EMBRACE
& PLACE
For some time now, Follow Your Heart Animal Rescue has been running a Courtesy Post program as a way to help safely rehome pets in the community when our fosters are full or otherwise unable to help. This program has evolved into Project Embrace & Place, which is designed to do everything Courtesy Post did and more. Through fundraising and donations, this project will safely rehome pets in the community, and can help provide vet care to deserving pet owners for their fur babies. All animals in this program will be brought up to date on the necessary vet care they need to be adopted responsibly, and this program will also help out in specific circumstances when good pet owners can't provide the vet care their pets need.

She will gladly enjoy a great game of fetch, but also likes to take naps and relax. At just under two years old, Sofia has learned her house manners. She is potty trained and doesn’t chew up belongings that don’t belong to her. Most of all, Sofia loves her people. She is a loyal companion who will always prefer to stay by your side. With that being said, Sofia is a people’s dog, not a dog’s dog and needs to be the only pet in the home. She is a super sweet pup deserves a chance to find the place she can finally settle and the person (people) she can call her best friend.

She is a funny cat. If you have ever owned a Calico/Tortoiseshell Calico or a Siamese before you can guess what a goof she is. She can be spontaneous but like to relax and be petted. Litter box trained, microchipped, used to a collar and harness. Will come fully up to date on vaccines and bloodwork (if she let's me). She is a polydactyl on all four paws (one extra toe on each paw). They need to be regularly maintained as they grow faster than her regular nails and are a little thicker.

Name: Lucky
Age: 6
Sex: Male
Spayed/neutered: Yes
Breed: Mixed
Weight: Unknown - medium size
Energy level: Med-high
Compatibility with other dogs: He is good other dogs.
Compatibility with cats: Unknown
Compatibility with kids: He’s never been around younger children but he does well with kids ages 6+
Requirements: Avoid giving Lucky human food to keep his belly happy.
Lucky is a good dog. He needs to stay kenneled when you aren’t around or he will have accidents. He is very smart and knows how to open child gates.
Lucky was found in June of 2015 when he was very little in the desert many miles from anything. We think he and his litter mates were dumped. He was the only one we saw and had bloody paws from his journey. He was named Lucky since he was lucky he was found. Unfortunately his human became part of a blended family and one of the family members is very allergic to dogs. He could use a little work on his manners but he’s as sweet as can be and we are praying he can find a family who will love him.
Rehoming fee: $25.
