My story

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

***FENCED YARD REQUIRED***

Wendel's rescue story is truly heartwarming! In June of this year, he was found on the side of a road in a dire state. He was painfully emaciated, plagued by ticks, suffered from multiple open wounds, head swelling, bleeding, intestinal parasites, and severe anemia. To top it off, he tested positive for heartworm, but his treatment had to wait until he regained his health. With time and care, Wendel made an astonishing transformation, gaining nearly 10 pounds, conquering heartworms, and watching all his wounds heal. Now, this resilient little charmer is all set for adoption! Throughout his rehabilitation, Wendel's infectious joy shone through. He's a perpetual tail-wagger, a generous kisser, and a bundle of boundless enthusiasm. Wendel warmly greets everyone he encounters, eager to share his love and excitement. When we first found him, we were filled with worry, but Wendel had other plans – he was too busy being thrilled about the prospect of finding a loving family. Just be prepared; this spirited pup has an abundance of energy to share!!!

Wendel's date of birth is 6/14/2021 and he weighs about 48 pounds.

All of our rescues are rehabilitated and once healthy are available for an adoption fee of $95 for cats and dogs. This fee includes:

• Extensive medical health check by a licensed veterinarian
• Up to date on all vaccinations
• Spayed/Neutered
• Microchipped
• 30-day pet health guarantee for local adoptions only (*Must follow process provided at time of adoption.)
• 30-day money back guarantee

Our goal is to find loving homes for all our rescued animals. Because we care about our rescues and their future, some animals have certain new family requirements before they can be released to their new home. Requirements for adoption could include the following:

• Fenced yard (required for most dogs) and home inspection for all animals; we will complete an onsite fence/home check prior to completing the adoption. (We do not accept invisible fences.)
• Veterinary reference for previous pet owners (must be/have been current on vaccinations and heartworm prevention)
• If no previous veterinary history, purchase of 3-month heartworm prevention
• If renting, verification with landlord on acceptability of pets and any restrictions, pet deposit, etc.
• Meet and greet with current pets to ensure compatibility

Note: We will call your current/previous veterinarian to verify that you have a history of providing vaccinations and heartworm prevention for your animal(s). We do a physical home/fence inspection prior to completing the adoption if a fence is required.
