My personality

My story

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

Meet Polo - the sweetest scruff shadow around! If you're looking for a gentle, loyal companion who just needs a little time (and a lot of love) to blossom, Polo might be your perfect match. This shy scruffy pup has a soft heart hidden under his adorable mop of fur. At first, he may hang back and observe from a safe distance - but once he decides you're trustworthy, you'll get to see his silly side shine! Polo loves a good routine. Knowing what to expect helps him feel confident, and he thrives in a calm, predictable home. Give him a comfy crate to call his den, a steady schedule, and a little patience, and he will reward you with quiet devotion. And here's the best part! Once Polo feels safe, he will lean in for gentle pets, close his eyes, and melt right into your hands. Earning this affection is a truly special experience - and he will never forget the people who made him feel loved. If you're a patient adopter with a peaceful home and a soft spot for shy, quirky pups, Polo is ready for his happily ever after. He's not just looking for a home - he's looking for HIS person. Could it be you? Polo is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and current on flea/tick/heartworm prevention. He also requires a 6' fence and a dog friend to help him learn the ropes!

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.
