My story

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

Meet Thelma

At 11 years young, This Golden girl Thelma is a sweet and sprightly Spaniel-Golden mix (our best guess!) who’s ready to share her golden years with someone special. She may be a senior, but she still has plenty of personality and joy to share!

Thelma is great on leash and enjoys going out for quick potty breaks — but long walks aren’t really her thing these days. She’s more of a “stroll and sniff” kind of gal who prefers her comfy dog bed or a cozy spot on the couch.

This lovely lady is completely housebroken, sleeps quietly through the night, and has wonderful manners. She adores people and gets along well with most dogs — she’s just an all-around sweetheart with a calm, friendly energy.

When Thelma arrived at our rescue, we discovered she has diabetes. She takes insulin twice a day like a champ and isn’t fazed by it at all. She’s otherwise happy, content, and ready to enjoy life by your side.

Thelma is looking for a home where she can be loved, spoiled, and cherished — a place to enjoy long naps, soft toys, gentle affection, and the simple joy of companionship.

If you’re ready to open your heart to a truly special senior, Thelma is ready to love you with her whole heart.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Since we are a small foster home based rescue we very rarely hold adoption events. We mostly have meet and greets to approved adopters. On the rare occasion we may bring a dog or so out to an event however we do not allow on event site adoptions.

More about this rescue

The mission of our small foster home based 501C3 organization is to rescue homeless dogs with no hope; especially those living in inhumane conditions. Whether it's dogs in cramped, dirty puppy mill cages, barbaric international dog meat farms, hoarding situations or those living in the streets and shelters - we give them a brand new lease on life. Wagging Tails Dog Rescue NY provides all the dogs we save with appropriate veterinary care, loving foster homes and adopt them out to caring and responsible forever homes.
