My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Galileo came to Homeward Bound Waggin from another shelter with not much a back story. He loves to run off energy outside and will need lots of space to run. Galileo would be the perfect dog to take for runs and live an active life with. Galileo can jump on top of or over things with ease. At right at five years old he still has a lot of energy and love to give. He is very food motivated and loves to search out treats and other food.

More about this rescue

Homeward Bound Waggin is an all volunteer animal rescue and transport organization. We pull animals slated to be euthanized in our rural area and then find no kill rescues in other parts of the country that can take them. We also make them available for adoption in a broader geographical area.
