Forever Home Masterlist (2)
part one
and the house becomes a home again (ao3) - BLUEGREYKIM
Summary: Dan’s plane lands at one-thirty-two AM (he’s been tracking the flight since it took off, and his stomach’s been flipping with jitters since Dan’s phone switched to aeroplane mode and his texts stopped going through).
Two and a half months, since Dan's been home, and Phil has been going crazy.
(also known as the dan comes home fic)
cat bells (ao3) - N_Chu4Ever
Summary: The catboy photoshoot, except it all goes weirdly wrong because Phil accidentally bought Dan a magic cat costume off the internet. Oops.
cat bells 2: the philling (ao3) - N_Chu4Ever
Summary: Just after rewatching the first three PINOFs, a mysterious package arrives on Dan and Phil's doorstep. Inside is a new cat costume... and Phil has a slightly terrible idea.
🌸 cherry blossom 🌸 (ao3) - natigail
Summary: It had been a silly dream at first. The idea to have a cherry blossom tree in their garden they didn't even have yet. It hadn't felt like it was something that would really happen.
But it was real. Dan was watching their tree, Phil's arms around him, and hoping they would get to see its first bloom soon.
Couch Potatoes (ao3) - ahappyphil
Summary: Picking a sofa for the forever home
Curse of the Golden Pig (ao3) - Tarredion
Summary: Dan disapproves of some of Phil's interior design choices — and despite all the compromises they've had to make, there's still a whole lot of them in the forever home. If he finds out Phil has snuck any of them into their new bedroom, and they're off-putting enough, he'll even refuse to sleep (or do anything ... else) in the same room as them.
Phil knows his whining is mostly superficial, though — Dan really doesn't mind it as much as he makes it seem, and even just a few kisses will make his facade crumble... a flawless tactic.
Forever Home (ao3) - possumdnp
Summary: Phil’s wanted a dog for as long as he can remember, and now that he and Dan are moving into their new house, it’s the perfect opportunity. But there’s just one problem: Phil’s allergic to dogs.
home (ao3) - Rawritsamehh
Summary: just a little drabblely thing
home wasn't built in a day (ao3) - cityofphanchester
Summary: “Different, though,” Phil says. He sets the glass down, prisms of light cascading out around it, and then he presses firmly into Dan’s side and speaks with a thoughtful air of bone-deep certainty. “It feels real now. Like we’ve actually finally done it.”
Words lose their way somewhere between Dan’s brain and mouth and end up sticking in his throat. Phil rarely vocalizes his feelings, rarely draws on straightforward sincerity. But here he is, calm and settled at Dan’s side, unequivocally permanent.
“Even if half the lights and plumbing are out?” Dan asks eventually.
Phil’s laugh is soft and low in his chest. “Even if.”
It's Been Years (Thirteen) (ao3) - BLUEGREYKIM
Summary: It’s been years, Dan thinks. Twelve of them, by now. Thirteen, in October. They’re in their thirteenth year. God, he’s gotten older. Less than ten years to go before he’ll have known Phil for longer than he hasn’t.
late night talking (ao3) - theloveofbees
Summary: it surely wasn’t the weirdest thing phil had caught dan doing in their thirteen years of knowing each other, but it was up there.
or it's the summer before dan's tour and they talk on the floor of their office.
made for you (ao3) - BLUEGREYKIM
Summary: Phil, in all the years he's known Dan, can tell what he's thinking with a glance, a lock of eyes. Dan, in all the years he's known Phil, is the same.
aka the fic where they have a super psychic connection and insane communicative skills (real life)
New memories (ao3) - R3ad3r1
Summary: Phil looks at their new house with a hint of sadness. Dan fixes it in the most romantic way.
On The Balcony (ao3) - cafephan
Summary: Whoever said moving to a forever home would be easy was lying.
Overheated (ao3) - kattdan
Summary: Phil's health issues
Returning home (ao3) - philsbignaturals
Summary: In which Dan returns to find a clingy Phil
Based on the selfie Dan took after returning from the European tour
Santa Buddy (ao3) - philsbignaturals
Summary: In which the boys host joint family Christmas in their forever home
Based on the Michael Bublé Santa Baby cover
summer skies (ao3) - cityofphanchester
Summary: Dan doesn’t think Phil's left the apartment, but he redials from his recent contacts all the same, listens to the ring for a few beats before he turns back, and there he is, curled sideways on his arm on the daybed, fast asleep in the shade.
(forever home, summer 2021)
Sutures (ao3) - jerseker
Summary: Phil returns to the forever home after a week away, just in time to pull Dan out of his negative thought spiral.
Taking a Break (ao3) - Nefertiti1052 (Succubusphan)
Summary: Phil has a broken leg.
unpacking forever (ao3) - cityofphanchester
Summary: Dan takes charge of the details, once they've moved in.
waking up in your arms with my mind on you and me (ao3) - natigail
Summary: On October 19th 2021, Phil wakes up first. Twelve years ago he woke up way too early, nervous for their first meeting and now they are waking up in their shared bed in their forever home. Phil allows himself to be a little sappy but it's okay because Dan easily joins him.
waking up to a dream (ao3) - vhslucky
Summary: "I missed you..." Phil mumbled against Dan's jacket, reveling in the familiarity of his smell. "I missed you more," Dan whispered warmly. Phil vehemently shook his head, "Not possible." Dan chuckled. Phil found that sound so sweet and endearing that he pulled him even closer.
with water out of sunlight (ao3) - cityofphanchester
Summary: Whoever was last in the house has left all the doors open, and there’s light spilling down the hallway and making the white walls glow.
(Dan walks the forever home.)

Earning the Trust of Rescue Dogs: Creating Comfort in Their New Home
Rescue dogs come from a variety of backgrounds—some may have been abandoned, others surrendered, and many may have lived through trauma or neglect. No matter their story, when a rescue dog enters your home, it marks the beginning of a new chapter for them and for you. However, adjusting to this new life takes time, patience, and intentional care. Here’s how you can earn the trust of a rescue dog and help them feel comfortable in their new home.
1. Understanding the Importance of Patience
Every rescue dog is unique—while some might settle quickly, others may take weeks or even months to feel at ease. It’s important to remember that building trust takes time. Your new dog may be unsure of people, frightened by certain objects, or even confused by simple things like a doorbell.
Tip: Give your dog space to explore the home and come to you at their own pace. Avoid forcing affection, and instead let them initiate interactions.
2. Create a Safe Space
Your new rescue dog needs a quiet, comfortable space that is all theirs. This could be a cozy dog bed in a corner or a crate with the door left open. Dogs need a place where they can retreat and feel safe if they become overwhelmed.
Ideas for Creating a Safe Space:
Use a crate lined with soft blankets and keep it open for them to enter freely.
Choose a low-traffic area of the house for their bed, away from noise and activity.
Add familiar toys, treats, or scents (like a blanket from the shelter) to provide comfort.
3. Establish Routine and Consistency
Dogs thrive on routine, and establishing one will help your rescue dog feel more secure. Consistent feeding times, potty breaks, walks, and bedtime routines help your dog understand what to expect, reducing anxiety.
How to Create a Routine:
Feed your dog at the same times every day.
Walk and play sessions should follow a predictable schedule.
Use the same commands and cues for training to avoid confusion.
4. Use Positive Reinforcement
Training is essential for rescue dogs, but the key to success is positive reinforcement. This means rewarding good behavior with treats, toys, or praise, rather than punishing unwanted behavior.
Training Tips:
Reward calm behaviors like sitting quietly or coming when called.
Use a gentle tone to communicate with your dog and encourage them.
Be patient with accidents—use them as teaching moments rather than reasons for punishment.
5. Build Trust with Calm, Gentle Interactions
Many rescue dogs may be wary of people, especially if they’ve experienced neglect or abuse. Building trust requires gentle, calm interactions that show the dog they are safe. Avoid sudden movements or loud noises that might startle them.
How to Build Trust:
Sit on the floor at their level and let them approach you.
Offer treats from your hand to create positive associations.
Speak softly and avoid prolonged eye contact, which some dogs may find intimidating.
6. Give Them Time to Decompress
Rescue dogs often experience stress from their previous environment. When they come to a new home, they need time to decompress. During this period, it’s important to avoid overwhelming them with too much attention, visitors, or new experiences.
Decompression Guidelines:
Limit the number of people or animals they meet in the first few weeks.
Keep walks short and in calm, familiar areas until they build confidence.
Allow them to explore the house and yard at their own pace.
7. Encourage Bonding Through Activities
Bonding with your rescue dog will strengthen your relationship and help them feel more secure. Activities like walks, games, or even grooming sessions can foster trust and connection.
Bonding Activities:
Go on daily walks to explore new areas together.
Play simple games like fetch or hide-and-seek with toys.
If they are comfortable, groom them gently to build positive touch associations.
8. Pay Attention to Body Language
Rescue dogs may not be able to tell you how they feel, but their body language speaks volumes. Understanding what your dog’s signals mean can help you respond appropriately and avoid stress triggers.
Common Signs to Watch For:
Tail tucked, ears flattened: Fear or discomfort.
Yawning or lip licking: Stress or anxiety.
Relaxed body, wagging tail: Comfort and happiness.
9. Introduce New People and Pets Slowly
If you have other pets or expect visitors, it’s important to introduce them to your new rescue dog gradually. A slow introduction prevents overwhelm and helps your dog adjust at their own pace.
Introduction Tips:
Start with leashed introductions to other pets.
Let visitors offer treats and allow the dog to come to them.
Supervise interactions and be ready to step in if the dog seems stressed.
10. Celebrate Small Wins
Progress with a rescue dog can be slow, but every small victory counts. Celebrate milestones like the first time your dog wags their tail, eats comfortably, or comes to you for affection. Recognizing these moments builds confidence in your dog and strengthens your bond.
Final Thoughts
Bringing a rescue dog into your home is a beautiful, life-changing experience for both you and the dog. Though the process may come with challenges, the rewards of earning their trust and seeing them thrive are priceless. With patience, love, and consistent care, your rescue dog will come to understand that they are finally safe and truly home.
By following these steps, you’ll not only make your rescue dog feel comfortable but also build a lasting, trusting relationship that will bring joy to both of your lives for years to come.

🌟 Cross-State Adoption Journey: Izzy & Cali 🌟
Hello, animal sanctuary friends and adoption advocates! 🐾 We’re so excited to share the story of two incredible dogs, Izzy and Cali, whom we’re helping through a cross-state adoption assistance program. Although we haven’t met them in person, we’ve been learning all about their personalities and can’t wait to help them find their way to loving homes.
Meet Izzy – Izzy is described as a bundle of energy and curiosity! Her rescuers say she’s quick to explore and always has a happy, playful demeanor that lights up the room. We can’t wait to see how her bright spirit will bring joy to her future family.
And here’s Cali – Cali is the calm, steady companion we all dream of. Her caretakers say she has an intuitive, gentle nature and loves nothing more than a good snuggle. She’s the kind of dog who’ll bring warmth and comfort wherever she goes.
Helping Izzy and Cali across state lines has been a beautiful experience, connecting us with new rescue partners and widening the network of families who want to welcome these amazing dogs. We’re so excited to continue following their journey and are grateful for everyone involved in making their transition possible. 💕
Stay tuned for updates as they take their next steps toward forever homes!

#rescuedog #foreverhome #HappyEnding #OriginStory #dog #dogs
Anyone in the mood for a happy story?
My aunt was visiting last week. I took her on a short road trip to NW New Mexico. The last stop on the first day was the Bisti Badlands. We got there around 5 pm. At the turnoff there were a couple of dogs in the road. They needed water. One was a puppy. The older dog was skittish and ran away, trying to get the younger dog to follow, but the puppy was running in front of every car, trying to get people to stop. After giving her some water, we tried to get her to go after the older dog. Nope. She wanted in the car. Seemed like she had been dumped.
She looked like a dried leaf, a little sun dried raisin. Every bone was showing. The back haunches were weak and giving out. No muscle. Based on the puppy teeth, she is probably about 3 months old. I couldn't leave her there, so she joined the road trip. My aunt became bed, food & water lady.
Other than dehydration and starvation, she was in good shape. No wounds, clean ears, clear/alert eyes, clear sinuses, all systems working, etc. By the time we got back from our 3-day road trip, my aunt's vacation plans changed. The puppy, now named Bisti, found her human. She has a vet appointment coming up for a full check up and shots.
The bounce back over the last week has been amazing. Just add water and food. She gained 4 pounds in a week, with muscle, energy, and puppy enthusiasm coming back quickly. In a week, she learned her new name and got crate trained/leash trained. She's GREAT in a car. She sits, lays down, stays, has no interest in dashing, stays close when walking, good w/people & animals.
This morning, they hit the road. Bisti is moving to Missouri. She's going to be a spoiled and pampered farm dog, with lots of room to explore, new smells, and lots of water.

Lucky’s Story: A Bittersweet Rescue Success
Sometimes in rescue, the right path is also the hardest one to walk. We recently discovered that “Lucky,” our very first rescue, is actually “Loyal”—a beloved dog with an owner who never gave up looking for him. Through a bittersweet but powerful series of events, we learned his original owner had been searching for him, and after hearing their story, we knew the right thing to do was to bring them back together.
Lucky, or Loyal, has become family to us. We were ready to give him a forever home here at Infinite Hearts, especially after learning he’s related to some of our own dogs! But at our core, we are a rescue and sanctuary. Our mission is to give animals the safe haven they need, and sometimes that means returning them to the people who miss them most.
This is our first rescue and our first success story. Though our hearts are heavy, they’re also full, knowing that Lucky is back where he truly belongs. He may be leaving our sanctuary, but he’s forever part of our Infinite Hearts family.
Here’s to Lucky/Loyal—may he find happiness in the home he always knew. And may this be the start of many more success stories to come. Thank you to everyone who has supported us on this journey. 💙
