HART2HARTwas formed by Vincent D. Hart in 2008 after a concern of the needless numbers of animals being put down in community animal shelters. There is a effort to prevent the spread of disease by homeless animals and the overpopulation of unwanted animals in the community. We are breed specific with a love for the German Shepherd and Husky. We have made every attempt to remain 100% independent from any large group or organization that comprise boards and politics. We remain dedicated to stay this way. HART2HART has an aggressive adoption program that includes a progressive companion program. We are funded by contributions and donations from our community of supporters.
HART2HART is proactive in the community providing education and services unmatched in the rescue community today. We provide companion visits to schools, senior centers and senior residential communities. Upon request we provide companion animals to local law enforcement, churches and human rescources to ease stressful tramatic situations in which children or persons might be exposed to. We provide consistant interaction to ensure the animals are socialized properly so that they are ready for their new homes.
HART2HART operates as an unconventional Rescue in how we care and prepare our animals for adoption. We have broken the process into three phases.
Phase One
Phase one is the assessment phase. Upon arrival the animal is placed in our kennels. This is done while the animal is given a medical exam and recieves all their required vacinations. They recieve interaction daily with our current staff of eight volunteers. They recieve basic training in basic commands sit, stay, and walking on a leash.
Once room is available they are avdvanced to the next phase.
Phase two
This phase the k-9 is moved into a home enviroment and introduced to a crate. They live in the (Dog Room).They recieve crate training and taught basic house hold rules. This is done with the use of Roxy and Rambo (Completely Trained Companion Dogs) as teachers. They are crated when not supervised and allowed to go outside upon request. Once they are able to function in a home enviroment and able to demonstrate that they are house broken they are ready to advance to the next phase.
Phase Three
This is what we call the adoption Phase. Each K-9 is ready to be adopted out.
There is no set time and some K-9 may require more work then others. Most will require additional training upon adoption and a lot of hard work by their adoptive parents due to the fact that there is an enviroment change.
