My story

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

THIS POST WILL BE REMOVED WHEN THE DOG IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE. INQUIRIES ABOUT THE ADOPTION STATUS WILL NOT BE RETURNED.

Shawn O'Casey is a happy, lively fellow who was recently released from a commercial breeding facility. He energetically embraces life with joy and exuberance and doesn't know a stranger!

Shawn will be a perfect match for an active couple or family who can keep him physically and mentally exercised and challenged. Manners classes will benefit this lad and a securely fenced yard will be a requirement as he loves to run and explore, making up for all those months of confinement during his puppyhood.

Shawn would love a canine friend with which to wrestle and tag-team the bunnies and squirrels in your yard. As a typical terrier, he plays hard so a dog close to his size and age will be ideal.

The suggested adoption donation for Shawn is a minimum of $700 and goes toward the high cost of veterinary care for our rescue dogs.Wag N Train Terrier Rescue adopts to an extended geographical area as long as we can locate a local volunteer to perform the required home visit. Approved adopters are required to travel to Omaha, NE to pick up their newly adopted dog. We do not arrange transport, or fly our rescue dogs without a "pet nanny". All of our dogs that come from a commercial breeding facility require a securely fenced yard AND a resident companion dog, unless the dog's bio states otherwise. Please note, invisible or underground fencing is not considered secure or appropriate containment. Adoption applications can be found at www.wagntrainterrierrescue.com/adoption-information

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process starts with a completed adoption application requiring two personal references, a vet reference and a mandatory home visit. Once approved to adopt, an adoption contract and adoption donation are required, as well as travel to the Omaha area to pick up your newly adopted dog. We require securely fenced yards for our terrier breeds and we do not consider invisible fencing safe or appropriate for terriers. Adoption applications can be found at wagntrainterrierrescue.com

Go meet their pets

Due to Covid 19, we are not holding any public events at this time. Private visitation can be arranged once your adoption application has been processed and approved.

More about this rescue

Wag N Train Terrier Rescue was formed in April 2010 to provide tender loving care for terriers in need. We are a small, all-volunteer organization made up of uniquely talented individuals who all love dogs. Several of us are certified pet dog trainers and we hold weekly training sessions for the dogs in our foster care. In addition, we also teach dog training classes to the general public and offer a weekly small dog play group for supervised socialization opportunities.
