Meet Batrick Swayze 🐾 Hi, I’m Batrick Swayze — yes, that Swayze — and I’m ready for the next chapter of my life (preferably one that doesn’t involve living under a porch). For seven long months, I made a cozy little home beneath someone’s porch, quietly watching the world go by while I waited for help. Thanks to some very patient, kind humans, I was finally caught and brought to safety… and let me tell you, indoor living is much more my style. I’m a black chihuahua with very big ears (great for listening for treat bags and compliments). I’m still learning that people can be wonderful, couches are magical, and regular meals are a thing now — and I’m making progress every day. I can be shy at first, but once I realize you’re one of the good ones, my joyful, silly personality starts to shine. I’d love a calm home where I can take things at my own pace, with humans who understand that seven months of porch life takes a little time to forget. A soft bed, a predictable routine, and lots of kindness will help me become the loyal little sidekick I was always meant to be. If you’re looking for a small dog with a big heart (and even bigger ears), I might just be your guy. Come meet me — I promise I’m worth the wait. Batrick is GREAT with other dogs and is neutered and up-to-date on his vaccines and flea, tick, and heartworm medication.

More about this rescue
Wags & Wiggles is a non-profit, no-kill, volunteer dog rescue organization serving the Fort Wayne, Indiana metro area. We are dedicated to rescuing dogs left homeless for whatever reason – dogs in public shelters where they are at high risk of euthanasia due to pet overpopulation, dogs given up by their owners because of difficult circumstances, and those in danger of abuse or neglect.
We place dogs in loving, responsible, committed permanent homes, following a comprehensive adoption process which includes taking considerable care in finding good matches and educating prospective adopters about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a dog into their homes and lives.
Animals in our care are spayed or neutered, receive all appropriate veterinary care and treatment, and placed in nurturing foster homes while they await placement in their permanent homes. We assist dogs in distress without regard to age, breed or ease of placement. To the extent our finances allow, dogs in the greatest need take priority.
We are determined to keep administrative expenses extremely low so that virtually every dollar taken in goes directly to the care of the animals. Our group remains interested in and committed to the welfare of the dog beyond the adoption process.
Finally, we strive to work with area shelters and other rescue and humane organizations to develop a network of supporters and volunteers in order to create a better world for homeless pets.
