UPDATE!!✨

TINY TREX IS READY TO STEAL SOME HEARTS!

Meet Trex! This tiny little guy and his siblings were recently saved from a local overcrowded shelter and are now safely settling into foster care. We’ll be getting updated pictures and learning more about their individual personalities soon, but one thing is already certain—Trex is absolutely adorable!

Trex is an 8-week-old terrier mix weighing just 2–2.5 lbs. Based on his current size, we believe he will likely be a small to medium-sized adult, although adult size can never be guaranteed with mixed-breed puppies.

He’s everything you’d expect from a happy little puppy—spunky, playful, curious, and ready to be loved! After starting his life in an overcrowded shelter, we can’t wait to see this little guy grow up knowing the comfort and security of a family of his very own.

Trex will be ready to go home in approximately two weeks, after receiving his second round of vaccines and being altered. We are accepting applications NOW and can reserve him for the approved family we feel is his perfect forever match!

Trex may be tiny, but he has a whole lifetime of love to give. Could that lifetime be with you?

Our adoptions are NOT first come, first served, and there is NO fee to apply! Our goal is always to find the best possible match for each animal.

We never state that any animal is fully house-trained. New environments, situations, families, and routines can lead to accidents, even with the most well-trained animals.

ADOPTION FEE & VETTING

All dogs have a $195 adoption fee, which includes a vet check, age-appropriate vaccines (at least 2 sets for puppies), dewormer, heartworm test if over 6 months old, rabies vaccine if at least 16 weeks old, and spay/neuter.

Puppies will be altered before adoption. All rescues and shelters practice pediatric spay and neuter. This is essential to our rescue efforts and is a policy we will continue to follow. All healthy, adoptable dogs over 8 weeks old and 2 pounds will be altered before adoption. There are no exceptions to this policy.

We have researched pediatric spay and neuter extensively and discussed it in depth with multiple veterinarians. From a rescue standpoint, it is necessary. Please do not ask for an extension on spay/neuter, as one will NOT be granted for a healthy puppy.

RESERVING A PUPPY

Puppies and dogs that are not yet available for adoption because their vetting is incomplete may be reserved with an approved application and a non-refundable $50 deposit.

Deposits may ONLY be submitted after Wags and Whiskers has contacted you regarding your approval and specifically requested the deposit. Please do not send a deposit unless instructed to do so.

The $50 deposit is applied toward the adoption fee, leaving a remaining balance of $145 due at pickup.

❤️ PLEASE REMEMBER

Wags and Whiskers is an all-volunteer rescue. Please allow our volunteers time to respond to all inquiries and applications. We truly appreciate your patience and support!

What happens next

  1. Contact Wags and Whiskers Animal Rescue League using the button. AdoptNearby does not take applications.
  2. They will send you their application or ask a few questions about your home.
  3. Most organizations arrange a meet, sometimes a home visit, then a small adoption fee that usually covers spay or neuter and vaccines. That fee is paid to Wags and Whiskers Animal Rescue League, never to AdoptNearby.
  4. Read the dogs care guide so you arrive prepared.
