My story

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

Sweet little angel baby alert! Yer a Blizzard, Harry is a 10 week old lab mix, with possibly a bit of terrier or beagle in him. This curious cutie loves trotting through the neighborhood and has already shown he’s a brave boy - he conquered a full flight of stairs by day two and is doing great on a harness and leash. When the zoomies strike, he resembles a bunny, hopping all over the place in the most hilarious way. 



He’s a big fan of chew time, especially when it involves crinkly toys he can shake with enthusiasm. He enjoys playing and chasing our resident dog and is very much in a monkey-see-monkey-do phase, eagerly following their lead and learning the ropes. He has yet to master going potty outside (too cold!) but does well with using the potty pads in his pen. We feel that he is so close to going potty outdoors now that the weather is warming and the snow is melting!



He is such a snuggly sweetie, with the cutest spot on his head that looks like a heart at certain angles! At nap time, he prefers to be snuggled up with one of his foster parents, but he also does well settling on his own in his pen when it’s time to rest. Overall, he’s a sweet, playful, and affectionate little guy who’s ready to charm his way into a forever home. He would do best in a home where someone can work with him during the daytime on routines and especially in the early afternoon when his energy spikes. 



Adoption Day: February 21st at PetSmart Tysons Corner from 10:00–11:00 AM, an approved adopter must be present to adopt.



Some pups may stick around until 11:00 AM for the public event—check our Facebook page closer to the date to see if this pup will be attending the extra fun!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Adoption information and applications can be found here: https://www.wtarescue.com/adoption-process-2

If you are chosen to adopt after the Meet & Greet process (https://www.wtarescue.com/meet-and-greets), be aware that all of our pets stay in foster care for a minimum of 3 weeks, and adoption finalization and Transfer Day will take place at the end of that foster period.

What are the requirements to adopt? There are no situational requirements other than that your current pet/pets need to be up-to-date on their vaccinations, as well as spay/neutered. This demonstrates responsible pet ownership.
Adopters must submit proof of visit with a veterinarian within 14 days of adoption.
If an adopted puppy is under 4 months of age, you must be in a situation where the puppy is not left unattended for >5 hours at a time.

Do you require home visits? No. Potential adopters are screened by their application, interviews by the foster, and the requirement of a Veterinary visit within 14 days. If you do not submit proof of a veterinary health visit within 14 days of adoption, your ownership of the animal is forfeited back to Wolf Trap Animal Rescue.

How can I see pictures of the puppies available? You can view them on our website at https://www.wtarescue.com/adopt-a-dog or https://www.wtarescue.com/adopt-a-cat.

How much is the adoption fee? The current adoption fee for puppies (under 2 years old) is $525. For adult dogs (over 2 years old), the fee is $485. The adoption fee for cats/kittens is $225. Adoption fees are payable by credit card only. This fee covers the cost of spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchip, deworming, flea/tick control, transport, food, and foster supplies - and it includes 30 days of pet insurance upon immediate activation.

More about this rescue

Wolf Trap Animal Rescue (WTAR) focuses efforts on rescuing high-risk animals from euthanasia, neglect, and abuse. These animals primarily come from Mississippi, where young animals are euthanized by the hundreds each and every day due to overpopulation. Lack of spay-neuter laws and large sections of rural land allow for free-roaming animals to reproduce, leading to a surplus of neglected, homeless, and starving puppies and kittens. These animals are then found and brought to local animal shelters, which simply cannot provide the care or homes these pets need in order to survive. Ultimately, they get euthanized for space or for illnesses contracted at the shelter.

There simply are not enough people to adopt.

We rescue these animals by operating a life-saving transport, foster, and adoption program. WTAR finds the pets who need us the most by employing a full-time transport coordinator on the ground in Mississippi (WTAR South), with the goal of working directly with these shelters and communities to be a resource when they cannot accept any more animals or find enough homes. These transports operate nearly weekly, relieving the shelters and communities from overcrowding and needless euthanasia. Redirecting the intake of young, at-risk animals from the shelter to WTAR allows additional time and resources to be spent on the older, less adoptable residents of the shelter that would otherwise be euthanized for space. Rescued animals are then scheduled and placed on emergency transport with WTAR to Northern Virginia. Upon arrival, they undergo an extensive veterinary intake evaluation and then are placed in foster homes until they find their forever homes through private Meet & Greets.
